Bit of Ivory

Don’t have much time, but I love my teachers, especially: Miss Shepherd (fourth grade), who was just. So. Cool. She taught me the alphabet in sign language, she got me interested in French, and above all, she loved me and encouraged me. Mr. McConnell (eighth grade science), who made science fun. And wore ties with […]

Got an update on my aunt. She’s had a couple of EKG’s and some blood tests, but nothing conclusive. She’ll have a stress test at some point today. Her blood sugar was good this morning, though (she’s got diabetes), so that’s something. They think she’ll have to stay another night. *sigh* Now for the BBC […]

didn’t turn out the way I thought it would. I figured I’d spend most of the day source checking, watch Gilmore Girls this evening, and then finish source checking and be done with the project FOREVER. It started out okay– I was source checking until about 3:30– had almost finished Galatians– when I got a […]

I dreamed about Orlando Bloom last night. Mmmm. And Peter Jackson, actually. It was a very good dream. It started out with me and Jen at some kind of fantasy convention, and Orlando was working the crowd. He stopped and chatted with us for quite a while. I didn’t have my camera with me, so […]

I have the cutest cousins! Siriusly, my uncle John’s kids are all really cute. Ashley is 5, Andrew is 4, and Natalie is 2. Natalie’s in the very talkative stage. She’ll just sit there and jabber away at you. She’s also very independent. Tonight at family night, her mom tried to wipe up her chocolate […]

So I’m sitting here in the family room doing source checking, and our parakeet is over in the corner taking a nap. She’s got her head tucked up under her wing and everything. Every once in a while she’ll make this little soft whistle as she’s sleeping. She doesn’t wake up. It’s adorable. I

I addressed envelopes for Sexy Read Boy bookmarks today. I still need a couple of people’s addresses, but the rest should go out tomorrow. I hope it’s just leftover ickiness from the cold, but I couldn’t. Sing. At. All. Today. Incredibly annoying. Must do Panofka this week to prepare for Stake Conference next week. Must. […]

Done, done, DONE DONE!!!!! I am *finished* with editing! No more! I have corrected my last comma splice! Whoot! Still have to do source checking, but that is easy and will be completed by Monday. And then I will be completely done. And I can start having a life again. How would that be? I […]

The moon was so pretty tonight. I saw it rising as I went to pick up dinner. I felt bad for Remus, though. Poor guy. This post is a bit of a GIP. The icon on the right is me. So is this: Figured it was about time I had an actual picture of me […]

First off- it was my best friend’s birthday today. Happy Birthday, Nicole!!! So today was actually– productive. Amazing. Has been a while. I had to turn in a bunch of books that my sister checked out from the BYU library for me for Albus research (most of which I didn’t get to read properly. Stupid […]
