Hi all, well well well, 2008 and i've had better things to do all this time, not anymore!

I will give a quick brief update for anyone that cares at all (no one)
Lets see, this past christmas was awesome my whole immediate family was together, earl and jana are having another baby boy (yes they had one named benjamin and he says that he loves me! he wont even say that to his mom) Just turned two. next one is due in may.

Eric is in Porto Portugal for two years, I miss him a ton already even though he only left a week and a half ago. Hes learning portuguese and i want to as well. he has a ton of hilarious vids on you tube (airick2021)

Allison is living in ohio working and almost done with school. i hope she moves up here.

Alex....i dont want to talk abtou alex. he needs help.

Lani Marie, this year will be the five year mark from her bone marrow transplant! then we are home free! I am getting a tattoo along with allison for the occasion. she is graduating high school a year early (just like me and allison) and we're going to go to alaska to work for a while then europe to live it up!

my mother and father are fine.

Figaro is superb.

Im kind of looking for "prospects" right now if you know what i mean.

I met george romero, ive been going to lots of shows, sundance film festival, working as a kindergarten teacher and making bank working with foreign currencies and stocks (ew, how grown up)

My apartment...well there was a disaster. i live in a mansion turned museum turned apartments thats like 112 years old and some major malfunctions happened. if anyone has legal advice let me know, i will tell you the whole story. and no, i didnt have renters insurance.

I am generally busy with work...but you know. Im looking for a few good men to hang out with here and there. so i shall see how my quest goes. I need a tall guy this time around.

everyone hit me up! let me know how you all have been and whose graduated, married, divorced, admittedly gay now and the like!

I love how this thing stays around forever.

I'm in Ohio.

I'll be a jerk and post lyrics...


A single rose in your garden dwells
Like any rose it's not itself
It is my love in your garden grows
but let's pretend it's just a rose
Well I'm sorry that I love you
It's a phase that I'm going through
There is nothing that I can do
and I'm sorry that I love you
Do not listen to my song
Don't remember it, don't sing along
Let's pretned it's a work of art
Let's pretend it's not my heart...
The rose will fade when summer's gone
The song will fade and I'll be gone
because my heart is dying too
and it's all the same to you

- The Magnetic Fields

Holy cow, I love how I go to such choice shows. I have never purposely gone to or attended a crappy show. i pick and choose, and Im SO glad I went tonight. They played ALL the songs I really wanted to hear, including Vermillion. The opening bands were great too, and I got an awesome haul. the ALbum Leaf Vinyl (got it all signed)a CD from one of the opening bands, a poster, and the setlist. It was so so awesome. I really wish Danny would've gone. he would have loved it...besides the fact you smell like cigs and get a nicotine headache. BUT, it was very worth it. Aw, i wish allison was there too.
Anyway, I need to find something for this headache, and wash the smoke off my body.

love you.

Thats right...thats tonight. Danny is being a poop and says he doesnt wanna come. I guess thats ok, I usually like going to shows alone anyway for some reason. Though I do wish Allison was up here.

Danny and I tried to go to the Springville art museum yesterday, but he chickened out because there was a train stopped and he didnt want to drive around it. hahaha..it was funny. So we just reposted some fliers, and hung out downtown provo. Wemt to savers I got a cute necklace. annnnnd, we went to the MTC..and stuff.

oh well. things are getting done.

A kitty cat had kittens in Danny's garage. They are so cute they made me cry.

theres 5 of them, two girls and three boys. two white ones, a russian blue, a black, and a grey and white striped one. We think the white ones are going to be siamese....I've always wanted a siamese kitty. my gohs, i love kitties.

I've been getting a few calls about the bear lake monster/bigfoot ads. eh.

Danny is more than excited about these new star wars figurines, we put like 17 of them on lay away..haha.

I didnt go to the Reverend Horton Heat show. I dont really care I guess. I'm excited for The Album Leaf show.

I have a headache. but I feel good.

I'm going to go bake some oat and honey cookies.

I had a really scary dream last night, i woke up sweating and crying. It was about these evil zombie witch women, that all dressed the same. and they were chasing everyone and no one cared. and the only way to kill them was to stab them in the side of the throat and make sure you rupture their windpipe, but the only thing you could stab them with was these straws that were really flimsy and you had to push really hard. It was so real in the dream. i dont know. and they pretended to be dead for like 30 minutes when they really werent, and you didnt know you had to sit and wait but you coudlnt because there were like 27 others. the number 27 kept coming up. i dont know. i dont want to write about it anymore.

So tonight Danny found out what acoustic bloodcore was all about...he didn't like it. i can't really stand that crapola either. SO Danny, Strider and I hung out tonight, and despite everyone around us being slutty loud and obnoxious we had lots of fun. Strider has the best sense of humor, the three of us are just so bitterly dry and sarcastic its intoxicating. I wasnt going to go cause I was feeling sick yesterday, but danny kept pushing it..and made me feel like he really wanted me to go..so i did.
I talked to some cute boy from texas that was in one of the bands, he had the most darling face. But then when Danny and Strider came up I just kinda said "well. bye!" and that was rude. Gosh he was just so..darling. Im thinking maybe Strider would like to go to the Reverend Horton Heat if I cant get Danny to go, His lady friend Michelle is a cutie pie and it'd be cool to see her again, but whatever.
So after getting somethign to eat and dropping Strider off, Danny and I went to go look at the star wars toys. wait let me go off on a tangent...for the past two weeks Danny and I have been talkign about reinacting the whoel trucker truck stop scene in Pee Wees Big Adventure, you knwo just walking in getting everyones attention and saying "Large Marge sent me..." OK, so we were walkign through the store and all the sudden I hear this boy sayign these exact words:
"On this very night, ten years ago, along this very stretch of road in a dense fog just like this. I saw the worst accident I ever seen. There was this sound, like a garbage truck dropped off the Empire State Building... And when they pulled the driver's body from the twisted, burning wreck. It looked like this. BLLLLLEEEEEEGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I was laughing so hard and gave the guy a thumbs up. That totally made danny's and my night.

on the drive home we were listening to Art Bell, and it had a really disturbing EVP recording, very changeling like, and since the changeling was one of the ONLY movies that ever made me uncomfortable my tummy kind of turned. I dont know what it is with me and thinking about children being drowned by an adult, usually parents, but that single thought really really disturbs me. and if you know me at all, i dont get disturbed by anything.

Theres too much to even bother tryint to put it all in here.

Highlights:

The interview was AWESOME, there was such a strange connection between the three of us, and that man had the most piercing eyes ever. I swear, he looked completely into and through my soul, Danny and I left feeling like we were on some kind of drug, and we couldn't get over his voice, we just couldnt get over any of it. We are in the processing of scheduling another, 3+ hours. When we were abot to leave he turned to me and said he recognized me from somewhere, but couldnt put his finger on it...but KNEW he'd seen me before.

The ring movie sucked as much as the first one, Robots, sucked even harder, except for Benders character "we'll ignore the gossip" Danny and I laugh about that constantly.

I finally got to hang out with Sheri, shes sweet and is getting her house finished.

My brother and sister in law and cousin and his wife are all gone. so now this huge house is all to eric and I. but My brother is thinking to kick us out, he called this morning. I dont have anywhere to go.

I've hung out with a couple boys that I really..wish I hadn't. they turned my stomach.. The only person Im really being able TO stomach is my dear Danny.

Danny made me the bestest most awesome easter basket ever, I will never be able to finish all the candy thats in that thing, oi.

I want to go to the reverend horton heat show, but I cant afford tickets. I put an ad on craigslist, but all I get are a bunch of jerk responses, strictly platonic means strictly platonic!

Im not talking to leroy still, he tried to contact me but after what he did...theres no way i can forget and forgive. I love him, but he needs to learn to...i dont know. he just needs to learn

I'm going to The Album Leaf show with Danny soon.

Eric is annoying me cause he never cleans and smells bad.

Figaro is still as faaaaabulous as ever.

I puked today in Wal-Mart...andi still dotn feel well.

I want flowers.

rising to the occasion

I'm the stinking Dr. Doolittle of this town, I have Kelty, Grizzly, Fiona, Boomer, Data and the fabulous Figaro to take care of. Geesh, i love animals, but this is a bit much for one girlypoo.

Talking to Jason has made me realize how good I have it, despite all the crappy things that have happened in the past, theyre all SO far in the past I have no reason to hang onto them. With the exception of a few occurances, like my little sisters illness. I'm over and done with virtually everything. My confidence has sprouted from places i didnt know existed, I changed and have grown in so many ways. I'm happy and i dont knwo why? Do i need a reason to be happy? that just shows how pathetic i once was, i needed a reason to be happy, or ok. ah, ive realized all this before...i just like being reminded of this feeling.

Danny and I are finally getting some stuff taken care of on the book. We've got flyers AND we made an appointment with that man whos name i mustn't type. We are SO excited. We're totally living the Indiana Jones dream.

Later this week Im going to head up to Sun Valley help with more moving of thingings. My brother found a house up there and well..i dont know. I want to stay here if anytihng. jsut cause i dotn want to pack up all my records and stuff again.

First Day of Spring


I dont know what I've been doing. Hanging out with Danny and going to dances that I don't dance at. I dont know what it is, theres just something about all the people up here that nauseates me. The boys are overly immature and the chicks, well theyre pompous and overly confident. why?

I've also been hanging out with this kid named Jason, hes really nice, and hes had some not so good things happen to him, like everyone I guess, but hes having a tough time with it all. He's 6'4, 25 years old, and lost his wife who was 5 and a half months pregnant almost three months ago.

Everyone, is gone now, moved to Sun Valley. I spent hours cleaning this house yesterday, it was disgusting.

meh...

Danny and I

That avalanche site is insane (i know i've been claiming to post pics..but i just feel that a lot of them are sucking mroe and more everytime i look at them)

eh.

i have a horrible memory, i'm sorry dave.

I forgot how much I loved this silly record. I used to rock out to it all the time in 6th grade...it's...eh...it's awesome when you're in the mood.

I'm not going to Sun Valley today, but within a week or so.

Man, Danny...what can I say about that kid. He has so much stress that really doesnt need to exist. Hes lost weight in the last couple weeks, it doesnt help that he already looked like a zombie, he can not afford to lose weight. I dont know much about when a guy has eating disorders...but its probbaly just the same as chicks, except..i think chicks do it for stupid reasons, but then again chicks are alive for stupid reasons and stupid things come out of their mouths all the time...ehh I'll let that be. Anyway, last night I could tell he was so so sad, but he wouldnt tell me. So i just spent most the evening trying to talk him out of it, trying to make him realize what he has. He is just very stubborn when it comes to this sort of thing. All i can say for sure is, I'm the only girl that interracts with him that he doesnt completely despise, and I'm honored by that fact. BTW..you guys dont need to talk to him about this post.

So, i'm home alone, listening to this record, and Im going to take a shower, then, try to get someone to go for a bike ride with me on the trail. I REALLY want to ride a boke and go camping for some reason right now.

I just remembered something else, if any of you ahve family in the utah or idaho area, that has stories about bigfoot, skinwalkers, or the bear lake monster, things like that. please give me their contact info, phone, address, email..anything.
