I’m too busy having fun to blog about the fun I’m having.

My best friend Heather is living with me for ten weeks this summer, working in the same food pantry where I work part of the week (the other part spent upstairs in my office). That’s why I haven’t posted in awhile. She and I have been too busy going on walks around Liberty Park, almost [...]
Copper and me
Posted in dork, family on May 4, 2009 | 5 Comments »
I dogsit and housesit for free. That’s how much I love doggies. (I do require that the dogowner lets me eat anything I want, though.) This past week I got to know Copper, a lovable Australian Shepherd who likes to lick everything in sight…including your armpit if you’re in a sleeveless shirt.
It was pretty random. [...]

dreary hike
Posted in Utah, dork, food, nature on February 22, 2009 | 5 Comments »
A hike in February just isn’t that scenic. The trail was mostly slushy snowy ice, stained brown from mud and who knows what else.
I found these great chocolate-covered raisins, though:
That reminds me of Steve Carell on Anchorman, when he says, ”Sorry, Champ—I think I ate your chocolate squirrel.”
Here’s a gorgeous view of the valley pollution:
All that [...]

My friend Bryce is going on a cruise with his family for a week. He asked me to bunnysit for him. (He has a pet bunny. Bryce is…masculine.) I agreed, thinking it was a good way to thank him for the volunteer hours he donated to get me my bike.
Bryce dropped Bun-Bun off last night, [...]

new bike!
Posted in Utah, dork on January 26, 2009 | 13 Comments »
Thanks to the very kind volunteering of my new friend Bryce, and my own volunteering, I have acquired a bike. The Salt Lake City Bike Collective (an awesome nonprofit) lets you volunteer at their shop to help “earn” a bike. So Bryce and I spent two evenings stripping bikes and attempting to repair bikes. We [...]
about yesterday’s inauguration…
Posted in dork, friendship on January 21, 2009 | 14 Comments »
I was e-mailing with my friend about President Obama’s inauguration. He had some insight on the day:
him: I could nitpick a few things about the speech, but I feel good right now. I just feel safer knowing that he’s up there, watching over me, answering my prayers…wait, what?
me: I knooooooow! I feel like he’s the [...]
help me keep my new year’s resolutions

MY GOALS FOR 2009:
1. Climb Mount Olympus in Salt Lake City, perhaps also Mount Timpanogos.
2. Don’t spend work time sending non-work-related e-mails.
3. Live for God.
4. Watch the entire series of The West Wing.
5. Be nice to people even when they annoy me.
6. Learn to use double-pointed needles in my knitting.
