Wow, It's been awhile

Lisa's working and preparing for her Gmat for Fall 2010. She's looking at Weber St to do her MBA because they have an MBA program for those who didn't receive an undergrad business degree. Her work will cover 90% of it, so wish her luck on that.

I'm still chugging along balancing work and school full time. I could possibly graduate in Fall 2010 depending on my load over the summer. I'd like to finish asap, but we'll see if I go till Spring 2010.

Life is good, and time is flying by. We still hate the cold and are counting down the days of winter anxiously.

Back to school

Wow, it's been awhile. Here's a brief update on the going-ons since the last post. School starts for me next week, and I still need to buy my books. I get to pay an additional $68 PER CREDIT hour for being in the business program. Why the U singled out the business program for this fee is beyond me. With books I'm looking at $4500 a semester, compaired to Lisa's $25oo a semester last yr. Such crap!

Lisa has a new job as a manager at Discover Card. She'll be working with money market and IRA accounts for her department. The main reason for the move is that they'll pay 90% of her masters, which will be nice. She's looking to get either an MBA or a Masters in a business related field. It should couple nicely with her Urban Planning degree since cities and states like to see you have a business background on top of Planning. She's excited for the position and getting back into school (she actually enjoys school).

Passed out a lot of fliers, and painted a lot of numbers this summer. Our link is listed on the blog if you want to see us in action. Still working nights at home for 1800 Contacts. I get to watch a lot of movies during my shift.

Not as much play as we would have liked, but we still had some good times fishing, vacationing, going to Lagoon, and hanging with friends. We have a trip planned this weekend as the last Hooraw for summer.

I'll have to work on getting some pics posted.

In Case anyone wonders where I am

I'll be back in a few months....

Finally Graduated!

Oh the Places You'll go....

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go.

You won’t lag behind, because you’ll have the speed.
You’ll pass the whole gang and you’ll soon take the lead.
Wherever you fly, you’ll be the best of the best.
Wherever you go, you will top all the rest.

I'm sorry to say so
But, sadly it's true
That bang-ups and hang-ups
Can happen to you.

On an on you will hike, And I know you’ll hike far
and face up to your problems whatever they are.

You’ll get mixed up of course, as you already know.
You’ll get mixed up with many strange birds as you go.

So be sure when you step.
Step with care and great tact
And remember that Life’s a great balancing act.

Just never forget to be dexterous and deft.
And never mix up your right foot with your left.

Will you succeed?
Yes you will indeed!
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)

I'm finally a college grad! Many of you have asked...well now what? I had an interview with Salt Lake City on Monday and now have an internship with the Sustainability Department. I'm excited to move on and hopefully start a career in the near future. If not, I'll just continue my days of sleeping in, blogging, making jewelery, playing with Bryce and whatever else makes me happy.

Honestly, two and a half years ago I never really thought I would end up graduating because I put college on hold. Its hard to go back, but its worth it, even if your professors are the most liberal Hippy people in the world:) Thanks to everyone that has supported me through this journey, especially you Bryce. I love you sweety!

And a thought from David McCullough:

"Remember that common sense is by no means common."

I Wish I Were An Oscar Meyer Weiner....

Ha....we saw the weiner mobile in Zion's, I had to get my picture with it!

Spring Break

Hey all. Just a quick post about our week. Thursday we made our annual trip to Zions during Spring Break. It was a quick trip and much needed. We arrived Thursday day and checked in to our Suite around 3 PM. We had a beautiful view from our balcony(pic above is balcony view), a couple of big flat screens, walking distance to shops and the park, and a heated pool and hot tub. It was pretty nice.

We spent the first day checking out all the little shops in town. Lisa bought some beads for jewelry (which she already "misplaced"), I bought the biggest thing of beef jerky I've ever seen, and then we ate at a little place called "Blondies". It was a house were the front parlor was turned into a small diner and the family lived in the other part of the house. I ordered the Elk Burger and Lisa the Philly cheese steak and ate our meal on their front porch. Their teenage daughter acted as our waitress and the food was excellent. You always find the best food at the little Mom N Pop places.

The next day we hiked a trail called Angels Landing. It was straight up and took a couple of hours to get to the top. the views were amazing, and was well worth the effort. We packed a lunch and had a little picnic on the way. My only complaint were the group of New Age hippies behind us. I was hoping they smoked enough weed that they might try and fly their "free spririts" off one of the cliffs... but good stuff never happens to me. I know, I know, that's awful for me to say. Please send all your hatemail to idontcare@yahoo.com.

We had a blast, and have come to the conclusion that it's best to take trips during the middle of the week because when you get home you still have the weekend to recoup (we got home Friday). We've already planned a week long trip in the summer to Moab, Zions, Bryce, Grand Canyon, and Canyon Lands for the summer. All are welcome to join, but so you know we don't really have a game plan when we go on vacation, we just wing it.

Siblings: Do you guys remember buying Cactus Candy when we went to Zions as a family, or am I just crazy? I've looked for the stuff both times but could never find it.

A Week of Celebration

Bryce is the one to usually blog with his sense of humor and witty stories; so I figured it’s my turn to blog; this week is one of celebration!

Tuesday, Bryce and I celebrated our 3 year wedding anniversary. We had a romantic evening at Madeline’s Steakhouse & Grill. It was excellent, I’d highly recommend to everyone. We had steak with endless snow crab, and I tried lobster for my 1st time; it was amazing. I think we ate about four pounds of crab each, it was that good. I can’t believe I’ve been missing out on seafood all these years, I guess I’ll need to catch up and eat more! For dessert I made chocolate covered strawberries, the same kind that I did for Valentine’s Day.

Wednesday night we went to see the Grizzlies play, we lost. It was nothing like Buffalo Sabres Hockey that’s for sure. There was an attempt of a fight, a punch was thrown and the ref broke it up. Come On! Watching a fight is one of the main points of hockey, too bad they were all a bunch of girls and didn’t fight. I think the REAL salt lake team was more entertaining; they tried to fight or pretend to fall and then sit there and cry like babies. Overall, it was a fun date night out.

And then there’s today, it’s my Birthday. I’m now an official member of the quarter century club. Can’t believe I’ve made it to be this far, just kidding it’s not old Yet. I was able to sleep in until 2PM, get breakfast/lunch in bed. Bryce made scrumptious Texas Toast (I call’um snake eyes….a piece of bread with the middle cut out and eggs cooked in them), cut up fresh mango’s, kiwi, pineapple, and my favorite yogurt with cottage cheese. It was delicious. Thanks sweety. I’ve also been spoiled with a new MP3 player (I don’t like ipods anymore) clothes, candy, and Bryce’s cooking dinner tonight. Today’s the one day of the year that I can still lay around in my pajamas till 5PM and not feel guilty about it. Happy Birthday to Me!

It's Official!

I'm a Ute! I'll be beginning the business program in fall 09'. Only 2 years to go! And then it's on to grad school!

This is the life!

I'm finally set up to work from home. As you can see, I have a pretty sweet setup. No more rush hour traffic driving to Draper. No more having to to share a cubicle. No more having to get dressed, shave, or shower for work. That's right folks, I could even work in the buff if I so desire! As you can see in the picture, I will have my duel work computers on the right, and my personal PC on the left, on which I could watch movies, surf the internet, or do homework while working. I even have a little mini-fridge (far left under printer) which will be well stocked. I don't even have to pay my Comcast bill anymore! The only drawback is that I won't be eating so well. Our work cafeteria (more like a restaurant) is awesome. (I'm eating rack of lamb. spaghetti squash, and jasmine rice that I brought home from work as I type this. cost me $2.00). I was getting sick of the Prime Rib (also $2.00) so I tried the lamb. =)

The only reason I took this job was so that Lisa and I could get decent insurance without shelling out $1000 a month. I'm happy it has turned into something that will allow me to have flexibility with school, family, and business.

Valentine's Day

I'm usually not big for V-Day. In the words of Ebineezer Scrooge "It's a poor excuse to pick a man's pocket every 14th of Feb" Luckily I married a Gal who feels the same way about it. It's a cheap holiday invented by Hal mark and continued by jewelry, flower, and chocolate companies.

Now that's off my chest, I decided to give to give this whole thing a shot. Called around for some roses, and laughed after several places told me that a dozen would cost about $80-$100. They're flowers...that die after a couple of days. Luckily when I ran into Harmon's to grab some dinner food, they had roses for $30 a dozen! I was able to put together a little dinner surprise for Lisa and we spent 3 hours sitting around our table talking.

In typical guy fashion, I had to improvise a bit. We didn't have candle holders, so I used some old little glasses and filled them with water dyed red. The center piece is a folded pillow case. I had to rearrange the flowers and get a new vase, and so on.

All in all I have to say I'm pretty impressed with myself. Not bad for a bumbling Neanderthal like myself.

Quick update

Lisa is in her last semester at the U and is graduating in May. She'll begin her internship this Summer and hopefully be employed full time in her profession soon there after. She's definitely ready to be done with school, and the Olive Garden.

I'm also beginning the transfer process to the U this semester. Apparently it's a long process so I'm glad to get an early start. On a side note, Biology is by far the most boring class I've ever taken. I wonder if I could bribe the teacher for an A? Here's all you need to know about human anatomy. If you've got a problem with your anatomy, go see a doctor. The End.

Also, I'll be working from home soon, which will be awesome. They sent out the equipment and I'm just waiting to get set up. It'll be nice not driving to Draper every day, especially when we begin the business again when the snow melts. I should be able to put in more hours this way over the summer, which I wasn't able to do last year with my schedule.

That's really it for us.

The Real National Champs

Life of Reilly

Oklahoma and Florida can battle for the BCS. But we've already crowned the true national champ.

by Rick Reilly

The Utes trampled Alabama to complete a perfect season. How are they not national champions?

Some gifts people give are pointless: Styling mousse to Dick Vitale. An all-you-can-eat card to Kate Moss. The BCS Championship given to Oklahoma or Florida.

It means nothing because the BCS has no credibility. Florida? Oklahoma? Who cares? Utah is the national champion.

The End. Roll credits.

Argue with this, please. I beg you. Find me anybody else that went undefeated. Thirteen-and-zero. Beat four ranked teams. Went to the Deep South and seal-clubbed Alabama in the Sugar Bowl. The same Alabama that was ranked No. 1 for five weeks. The same Alabama that went undefeated in the regular season. The same Alabama that Florida beat in order to get INTO the BCS Championship game in the first place.

FIND ME ANYBODY ELSE THAT WENT UNDEFEATED. THIRTEEN-AND-ZERO. BEAT FOUR RANKED TEAMS. WENT TO THE DEEP SOUTH AND SEAL-CLUBBED ALABAMA IN THE SUGAR BOWL.

Yeah, that's how it is now in the shameful, money-grubbing world of college football. If you're Florida and you beat Alabama, you get a seat in the title game. If you're Utah, you get a seat on your sofa.

Hey, remind me: What do they give out for one of those BCS things anyway? It's been so long since I cared. Something from Sears? This is the sixth year in the past 10 that the title has been in dispute under this cash-grab, fan-dis, monopoly that the BCS has created. Which is why the title game just doesn't matter anymore. It's like being named Miss Ogallala. Or Best Amish Electrician.

Just take a look at the teams that think they're worthy of being called national champs:

USC? Great year. Wonderful. Let's all go to SkyBar and celebrate. But it lost to Oregon State, a team Utah beat.

Texas? You think beating Ohio State by a nubby three points gets you the title? The Big Ten was 1-6 in bowl games! That's like pinning David Spade!

Florida and Oklahoma? They lost. Utah never did.

So that's it. Utah is the national champion. The Utes should probably have two now, actually. They went undefeated in 2004, too, and their coach still thinks they were the best team in the land. Smart fella named Urban Meyer. Coaches Florida now.

By the way, we're calling our title the "national" championship because it actually includes the whole nation­—all 119 Division I schools—unlike the BCS, which includes 66. Yeah, the BCS somehow eliminated the middleman—the NCAA. The conferences these schools play in take their dump trucks full of cash straight from the TV networks and fairness can go suck a lemon.

Nettie Tien

The Utes won't get the trophy they really deserve, so we gave them one of our own design.

Do me a favor. Call Ohio State president Gordon Gee and ask him why he won't support a playoff. He's one of the most powerful presidents in the NCAA. He could get it done. If he says anything other than, "We don't want to share the loot" then you know he's lying his bow tie off.

"This is not how we normally do things in America," says Utah president Michael Young. "In America, quality usually wins, not conspiracy. And there's a reason people usually enter into a conspiracy. It's money. You make money doing it. And those that are in on the conspiracy want to stay in and keep everybody else out."

Sure, BCS blowhards will hand you schlock about how the college football season is like a playoff, how it's an elimination tournament every week. Really? Well, how come Florida and Oklahoma weren't eliminated with their losses? Utah ran the table, beat everybody set in front of them, including Ala-damn-bama in no less than the Sugar Bowl, and gets the bagel.

Oh, by the way? It was Utah's eighth straight bowl win, the nation's longest streak. Among the losers during that run? Let's see USC, Georgia Tech, Pittsburgh, and now the legendary Houndstooth Hats.

"What else do we have to prove?" asks Utah's magical quarterback, Brian Johnson. Good question. He and the Utes essentially whipped Alabama at home. Handed Nick Saban a garlic necklace to wear the entire offseason. Stepped on his team's neck 21-0 in the first three possessions and never looked back. Let's see. Who was it that was losing to Alabama until nearly six minutes into the fourth quarter? Oh, yeah. Florida.

What, you want the Utes to win a spelling bee? Make a prize-winning souffle? Knock up Angelina Jolie? What?

It just slays me. It really does.

Call Myles Brand, president of the asleep-at-the-wheel NCAA, and ask him if he and his greedy presidents are going to stand in defiance of president-elect Barack Obama, who said again this week he wants a playoff and wants it yesterday.

Call Atlantic Coast Conference commissioner and BCS bully John Swofford and ask him what he's going to do if Obama starts asking the Justice Department to look into anti-trust violations against the BCS. The Utah attorney general has already launched an investigation into that very thing.

Ask him what he'll do if Obama asks the Department of Education to consider withholding federal funds from these schools that have entered into his secret club. You don't think playing in the title game means millions in general-fund donations for a school? That's as unfair as anything Title IX fought against.

Until all these people do the right thing, I'll be celebrating with the true national champions — the undefeated, untied Utah Utes. (Our new slogan: Utahk about a team!)

Lemonades for everybody!

www.ESPN.com

Ute's are National Champs!

Great year to be a Utah fan. Undefeated season with a big win over #4 Alabama to remain the only unbeaten Div 1 college football team. I don't care what the BCS system says, the Utes are #1!


I am a Utah Man, sir, and I live across the green,
Our gang it is the jolliest that you have ever seen.
Our coeds are the fairest and each one's a shining star,
Our yell, you'll hear it ringing through the mountains near and far!
We're up to snuff, we never bluff, we're game for any fuss.
No other gang of college men dare meet us in a muss.
So fill your lungs and sing it out and shout it to the sky,
We'll fight for dear old crimson for a a Utah man am I

Chorus:Who am I, sir,A Utah Man am I!A Utah Man, sir,Will be 'til I die.Ki-yi!

Go Utes!

Tis the Season

Lisa and I are finally getting into the Christmas spirit. We dusted off our bin of Christmas stuff and started putting up the tree.

My finals are finished and I don't have school until Jan 7th! It'll be a nice break. Lisa finishes hers next week but she said they shouldn't be too bad.

We wish everyone a Merry Christmas!

Gobble Gobble

Happy Turkey day, I know it's late but hey. We went to the folks and had a feast. The turkey was perfect, in fact, everthing was really good. I gained the 7 lbs back that I lost, oh well. Utah dominated BYU. That means a BCS game and Dad is going to get a nice Ute curb number in front of his house. That reminds me of a joke. What's the difference between a BYU fan and a litter of puppies? Eventually the litter of puppies will grow up and stop whining!
Gotta love those Utes.

Lisa and I will probably take a trip to their bowl game, I wonder if that would count as an official honeymoon? It would probably be the Sugar bowl in New Orleans. Do guys get beads for showing their teats?

Anyways life is good. Finals are upon us, and I'm ready for this semester to be done with.

10-0 BABY!

In case people didn't know, Lisa and I are HUGE Utah football fans. Whenever there's a home game we make a day of it. Yesterday we went tailgating with some friends and I was laughed at when I busted out my little portable grill (not very manly of me appearantly). My burgers were a big hit and we met a lot of fun people. The game was awesome, and not as cold as I thought. 46,000 people yelling and jumping around puts off a lot of heat. And incase people missed the game (it was on CBS this time), we beat #12 TCU off of a last minute score. I'm happy that we didn't sell our tickets (our section was going for about $200 a ticket).


GO UTES!

Happy Halloween

This may sound stupid, but I forgot how much I like Halloween. Seriously though, there's something about all of the B class horror movies and grown men dressing up in some crazy costume that just makes this such an awesome holliday. The holliday is all about fun, there's no grand meaning behind it (Not that meaning is bad), just an excuse to have a good time. The history of Halloween is also pretty interesting, but I won't bore everyone with a history lesson.

I even like the whole "haunted house", bit. Luckily we've been told that some of the nations best and scariest are in the area so we are planning on hitting some up with some friends and try and get into the spirit of things.

Now a bit of CAS business (Citizens Against Stupidity).

Our subject study is non other than Gov. Sarah Palin. Like a said in my first blog, this is a non-partisan group, it just goes to show how deep this sickness goes.

The following is the transcript from the Couric/Palin interview.

COURIC: Why isn’t it better, Governor Palin, to spend $700 billion helping middle-class families struggling with health care, housing, gas and groceries? Allow them to spend more and put more money into the economy? Instead of helping these big financial institutions that played a role in creating this mess?

PALIN: That’s why I say, I like ever American I’m speaking with were ill about this position that we have been put in where it is the tax payers looking to bailout.
But ultimately, what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the health care reform that is needed to help shore up the economy– Helping the — Oh, it’s got to be about job creation too. Shoring up our economy and putting it back on the right track. So health care reform and reducing taxes and reining in spending has got to accompany tax reductions and tax relief for Americas.

And trade we’ve got to see trade as opportunity, not as a competitive scary thing. But 1 in 5 jobs being created in the trade sector today. We’ve got to look at that as more opportunity. ALl those things under the umbrella of job creation. This bailout is a part of that.

Thank you very much Gov Palin for such a descriptive explanition to a rather direct, on the point question. Health care reform and scary trade deals were all very helpful in explaining why this bailout went to save Wall Street. It all makes perfect sense now! What was the name of that other guy who was up for the Veep job? Maybe it's time to give him a call.

Citizens Against Stupidity Unite!

So I've decided to start a club to combat the rampant rise of stupidity in our nation. Stupidity threatens us all, and this destructive disease seems to be spreading at an unprecedented pace.

At first, stupidity outbreaks were mainly found in areas like Hollywood, Hippie Conventions, Washington DC, and Trailor Parks. But now this crippling disorder has attached its evil claws to our Educators, Doctors, Law Enforcement Officers, and every other facet of society.

Citizens Against Stupidity (CAS) stands firm in the belief that when you encounter someone afflicted with the deadly stupidity virus, that it is your civic duty to make that person aware of their own stupidity so that they can seek help before it's too late.

This is a non-partisan, non-religious movement since stupidity has infected all walks of life.

Our featured story for the day is Dr. Laura West of Los Angeles. Dr. West called in to my work last night inquiring as to why we haven't shipped her contact lenses yet. Now, Dr. West is an MD so she is able to write her own contact rx's without seeing an eye doctor. Upon looking up her order, I noticed that she wrote out the wrong prescription for the contact order that she placed. After several minutes of listening to her repeat over and over again that she was a Doctor (apparently she thought that I wasn't paying attention the first 10 times she said it) I was finally provided the opportunity to speak. I explained that the order and the rx didn't match and that she'd have to send in another rx with the correct info. She then went off again about how she is a Doctor (this time she was being condescending) and that she already sent in a rx and shouldn't have to do it again. Again I told her that the rx we had was different then the order that was placed, hence we needed another one faxed in with the correct info. We went on like this for another 10 minutes or so and she was beginning to get offensive. I was baffled that a medical professional was so incapable of understanding how prescriptions work. Then it hit me, this Doctor is infected with the Stupidity Virus!

It was at this point that I jumped into action as a member of CAS, and tried to make the Doctor aware that she is a victim of stupidity. I calmly told her that even those with basic reasoning skills would understand that prescriptions must match the order being placed, and the fact that she couldn't understand that as an MD frightens me (my exact words). I could tell I was getting through because there was a long period of silence, but unfortunately stupidity won and the Doctor began her rant about how she was a Doctor and I was the stupid one. She told me to cancel her order and that she would never do business with a bunch of idiots like me again. To which I calmly responded that if I was ever in need of a Doctor while in L.A. I would be sure to seek the help of someone who at least understands basic medical procedures. That was the end of our conversation.

Now, there are some key symptoms in this case to help us identify the Stupid among us.

The first sign was that she kept repeating the fact that she was a Doctor over and over again. This was done to throw me off her trail that she was stupid. You'll notice this technique will be used by people like Doctors, Lawyers, and your Boss. "Because I'm your Boss" is a classic statement made by the stupid.

The second sign was that she was unable to listen to basic reason or follow simple instructions. Stupid people often have trouble with that, hence the reason why I had to repeat myself over and over again to no avail.

The third sign in this case was her reaction when she found out that she was suffering from stupidity. The angry, condescending response when I brought it to her attention is a normal reaction for those who are suffering from this disease.

I can only hope that Dr. West seeks help for her condition, and it brings me satisfaction to know that I may have helped her to the road of recovery.

Finally settled in

So we had our big move this past weekend and it's amazing how much stuff we've accumulated in the past year or so. I remember when we first got married and loaded up all of our earthly possesions in the back of the smallest of Uhaul trucks we filled it to the back 3rd of the truck. We are now filling to the brim the big truck plus a couple of cars. Where did all of this crap come from? We literally filled 3 big black garbage bags with just shoes! Anyways a big thanks to Mom, Dad, Tavis, and Clint for coming down and helping us out Sunday. I woke up sore as sin the next morning, man am I getting old. We like our new place a lot better than our last place though so it's all worth it.

We went the first few days without hot water since our gas company was late getting to us, plus the shower nozzel was broken when we moved in, so bathing was interesting. Lisa was lucky since she could just shower at her gym after working out. She suggested I could either come work out with her and have a nice hot shower, or I could pour ice cold buckets of water over my head at home. I thought it was a smart a@# thing for her to suggest... I took my chances with the cold water. Just what are you implying sweety?

Tomorrow is the first home game for UoU football and guess who renewed their season tickets? We did, and it's a good thing we did because they are all sold out and you'd have to pay scalpers price to get them now. I've been waiting for this day for a long time, and fresh off our win at Michagan I expect us to have a great season.
