Bit of Ivory

My office is always cold. I think that’s usual for offices– I’ve never worked in one that isn’t. And the library at BYU was cold, too. I get used to bringing a jacket to work and just leaving it there. But it’s been even colder for the past few days, because it’s been cold and […]

My great-uncle Fay passed away yesterday morning. His funeral is set for Friday– the same day as Grandma Jarman’s. My mom (whose uncle it is), is torn between going to her uncle’s funeral or my father’s grandmother’s. Deaths come in threes, right?

ME! That’s who! I’ve been playing around, but haven’t taken any upload-worthy pictures yet. I’m going to take my camera to worx tomorrow and take some pics of the view, so you can see them soon! It’s small and cute and expensive and I LOVE IT. Okay. Going to play some more.

SPOILER ALERT. Obsolete. Must get screencaps of tonight’s episode and make a new icon. That was amazing. Better than I ever could have imagined. Wow. But, Rory slept with Dean. He’s married. Not good. And now I have to wait until AUGUST to find out how all this will shake out. Grr. Must watch that […]

I ordered my birthday present yesterday. It’ll ship tomorrow. I paid for ground shipping, which would have taken 10 days, but they bumped me up to 3-day shipping instead. So I could conceivably have it by the weekend! I’m getting a Nikon Coolpix 4300 digital camera. I ordered it, after a lot of research to […]
