A cornucopia of randomness

February 21st, 2004 · No Comments

We’re watching a BYU basketball game (vs. New Mexico), and we’re playing at home. The Marriot Center is known for its very vocal fans. For instance, one of the New Mexico players threw an airball at the beginning of the game, and ever since then the fans chant “airball!” every time he gets the ball. […]

Morality and gay marriage

February 20th, 2004 · 1 Comment

I am 46% liberal, 54% conservative. I actually thought I’d be farther to the conservative side, but that’s good, I guess. Pretty much middle-of-the-road for me. Yay. I’ve been wanting to talk about the gay marriage thing for a while now, and this is as good a time as any. So, reader beware, political and […]

Because I am a sheep. . .

February 19th, 2004 · 3 Comments

and because I am truly curious about where all of you heard of me, it’s the Online Presence Meme! 1. How did you first hear of/meet me? 2. Where and when did you first hear my name/see my work/meet me? 3. With what people/series/groups etc. do you associate me and my writing? NOTE: This is […]

Well,

February 18th, 2004 · No Comments

the interview went well, but I got a call saying that I didn’t get it this afternoon. Once again, I think I’m just dismally overqualified. I’ve applied for a part-time office specialist position at BYU. It would be nice to get, because I’d be able to keep it when/if I start school in the fall. […]

Okay, so I got distracted after GG. So sue me. I liked it, incidentally. I haven’t liked some of them this season, but this one was good. I couldn’t get excited about the Dean comforting Rory action (and for ONCE in their LIVES the promos didn’t completely lie), ’cause I know Dean is history, dude, […]

Quick Update

February 16th, 2004 · No Comments

President Faust was *awesome,* I couldn’t sing at all, but I don’t think it was *too* noticable. Dad’s arrangement of “Come Unto Jesus” was a hit. President Faust didn’t get time to say much– the first three speakers went waaaaay over time– but what he *did* say was awesome, and he had the greatest spirit […]

Wow!

We got some *really* cool news today. James E. Faust, Second Counselor in the First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is coming to our Stake Conference. I’m singing in the choir. My dad arranged one of our songs. I’m nervous, but excited. I’ll let you know all about it tomorrow. […]

Had a sudden desire to make a P&P LJ mood theme. You can see the results. I’ve got all the base moods done, but must do the more specialized ones. I’m making the screencaps myself, you see. I’ve got lots of ideas for them, though. I love having the time to do frivilous things like […]

It’s official this time. The files have been saved and burned to a CD. The letter has been written. The envelope has been sealed. Just need to mail it tomorrow. No more sources, no more references, no more redlines. I’m DONE! I think I’m going to go buy Irresistable Forces in celebration. Winterfair Gifts here […]

Color me shocked.

February 12th, 2004 · 1 Comment

I just got a call from Western Governor’s University, which is where I interviewed a little while back, and where (I thought) they gave the job to someone else. Well, either that person didn’t work out or they’ve got another opening, because they want me to come back for another interview. Wednesday, noon. I wouldn’t […]
