Farewell World Wide Web

We are moving and are no longer going to have the internet. So long internet. Moving sucks, I am pretty sure it's the worst thing in the world. But we can do it all today, so I guess it could be worse. I am going to leave this blog with one of the final songs ever performed by the Beatles, in what would be their final concert ever. This is one of the greatest songs ever. I love it very much. There is no hidden reason why I chose this song, It's just one of my all time favorites. Enjoy, and so long. Play me out John, Paul, George, and Ringo.

You-Haul-It

I don't know how many people I told but we were planning on moving to St. George. The day we got approved for a place and two days before we were going to move in, Lizzy (my current store manager) decides that she will theoretically be able to get me a raise, oh, and she decided to manipulate our district manager into not giving me a raise if I transferred down south despite the higher cost of living. So, I thought to myself, "self, what should I do?" Then I thought of something smarter, "ask somebody smarter." So I turned to Jesse who was sitting next to me, and we decided that we would stay if I demanded an immediate raise and they obliged. I told Lizzy that they would have to give me an immediate raise. No promises, only actions. They obliged. They gave me a dollar fifty raise, plus they are going to give me a promotion and another dollar raise when that happens. I am sweet!

Anyway, so now we are staying. Even though we decided to stay we still wanted to move out of our basement apartment because we are tired of not having a place that feels like our own. We very much appreciate what Kleston and Judy have done for us, in letting us live here for so cheap, but we just feel like it's time to have our own place. This is my really long-winded way of saying that we need help moving. Jesse isn't supposed to lift anything heavy, and we have some really heavy stuff. We found this really small, cute place across town. We love it, and need help moving. I know this is such short notice but we are moving on saturday, and we need help! We have a couch sitting at Big Lots! that we have to pick up on saturday because we have to. And I definitely can't lift that by myself. Plus the other stuff. We will have everything ready to move, we just need help moving half of our stuff to our place, and the other half to D.I. Somebody please come help us on this really short notice. We will even stop and go to Applebee's to watch the BYU game so no excuses there. Except for Chris, you are excused because you are going to the game. No worries there. Please let us know if you can help us. It will be pretty quick.

Funniest List Ever!

Today was really slow at work, so to pass the time I gave my store manager the challenge of writing down all fifty states in five minutes. She only got thirty two in the five minutes but she wanted to see if she could finish the list just for fun. She did, with help from others, but this has to be some of the worst spelling I have ever seen. She threw the list away and I dug it out of the trash to share with you people. By the way, this is the same person that has asked me how to spell 'aren't' and 'orange.' This is no joke. If nobody believes me, I will scan the actual copy and post it on here. Read them carefully. Here are her spellings:

College Football Article

Here is an article I thoroughly enjoyed reading on college football and the bcs. I liked it so much because it was written by somebody in big-10 country, not by somebody out west. I agree with this dude.

New Phone Number

I cancelled my phone this morning, so now Jesse and I share the same phone. Maybe Jesse will post on why we had to cancel it because I am just too mad about it. But anyway, now my phone number is different. If you have Jesse's phone number than that is what mine is now too. If you don't have it let me know and I will get it to you. AND HOW ABOUT THOSE COUGARS!!!!!!!!

**Note: I am so ashamed that I didn't believe they could win that game. I hang my head in disappointment of myself.**

My Doctor Appointment Update

As Justin says, the Doctor's appointment was all good news. Everything's normal and healthy, thank goodness. She also gave me some tips on how to help my morning sickness...but then she said the prenatal vitamins she prescribed can be very hard on the stomach, so maybe they will cancel each other out and I'll be right where I started. :) I try to be a little more optimistic than that, though. And my exam wasn't so bad. I figure I probably should get used to being prodded and examined asap since it's going to be pretty standard for me over the next few months. :) Like Justin said, our next appointment is in about 4 weeks, and hopefully we'll actually be living in St. George or Hurricane by then. That would be nice.

I would also like to say that I'm very sorry things have slowed down with my Book Club. I haven't felt like doing anything lately except lay in bed, watch Gilmore Girls, and eat. (The morning sickness isn't as bad if I keep something in my stomach at all times.) It takes most of my motivation to just go to school 3 times a week and that doesn't include homework. Driving 45 minutes to school and back has been pretty hard. So, I'm sorry if people are disappointed with the lack of activity on the Book Club. I'm very excited to get past the morning sickness phase of this pregnancy...and I'm sure Justin whole-heartedly agrees with me! He's had to stress about finding a place to live and paying for things and work stuff all by himself for the past few weeks, and I know he's very exhausted. I think we'll find a nice rhythm once we get moved.

So, there's the latest update. Oh, one more thing. School sucks.

Dr. My Eyes...or Belly

Since I am terrible at calling people, and I hate talking on the phone, this is where people on my side of the family can get the prego updates. We had our first doctor's appointment on Tuesday. It all went well for me, Jesse, however, may feel a little differently. She had to get all felt up and I am sure it wasn't that pleasant. But everything seems to be fine and healthy. The due date is April 18th, which is the exact day that we calculated. We are so smart. She also said that Jesse is seven weeks pregnant, so on our next visit on September 29th we should be able to hear the heartbeat! Yeah! It's all very exciting. I want it to be a girl so badly, I think if it's a boy I am going to tell them to put it back...
