WIS to the DOM

I am certain the title of this post is hilarious, but I am totally drugged up on Percocet, so maybe not. Today I finally got my wisdom teeth out, I went all the way under and it was one of the weirdest things I've ever experienced in my life. Needless to say, tears were shed and when they were waking me up I was positive they were still trying to put me under and the meds weren't working. Good thing I never drank or did drugs, I hate feeling loopy. Awesome day.

I can't wait to read this tomorrow and see if it makes any sense.

Mistaken Identity

I LOVE watching movies at home with James, let me tell you why. James has a great memory for things, but actors faces are not his strong suit. Every time we watch a movie he will pick out a character from the movie and claim they are on some other show or movie and 99.9% of the time he's wrong and wrong by a long shot.

EXAMPLE:
We watched a movie the other night featuring a dude, after the movie was over James mentioned his work on 30 Rock and Arrested Development. He insisted he was right and we checked imdb to clear his claim. Here are the two men he confused. This is why I love watching movies with James.



It's funny, but now looking at them side by side I can see (kind of) how James may have confused them. Crap, maybe he's not as off as I thought. I promise there have been way more examples, if you ever want me to relate them to you.
Love you James!

Oh snap!

I was just told today that I have to give a lesson in Relief Society in three weeks. What?!! So I had a lesson all prepared for July, but ended up going out of town. I took three months to study and research this lesson and then gave my insight to the sister who took over for me. Snap, now I have no lesson and three weeks to put together what I usually work for three months on.

I need a lesson idea. Have any of you had a really good lesson that you want to share some insight from? Help me please.

*Update!! I actually don't have to teach. I get another 3 months to prepare my next lesson, thank goodness. Keep the good ideas coming though, I will need all the help I can get.

The 4th of July

We were able to go to the Bowles cabin in Heber for the 4th and enjoy the small town pleasures that are "the 4th."


HIGHLIGHTS:

-New flooring, paint, couches and curtains in the cabin. A new fresh place to stay, Hooray!!

-Cooler weather

-Taking cheesy pregnant pictures of Debbie (I hate cheesy pregnant pictures, they make me want to throw up.)

-Gus getting dirty and having fun.

-Seeing all the Carpenter family.

-Fireworks (the best fireworks in Arizona, I'm sure of it)

-Small town parade, complete with trampy cheerleaders in patriotic bikinis. Oh yeah, and they gave out Otter Pops.

-Eating crap all weekend.

What's the draw to Wicked?


 
Now I finally get it. I had to find out why everyone loved this play so much, so I went to see it. It is awesome, and far better than what I expected. It was kind of like the Twilight books, people will tell you how awesome they are but until you check it out yourself you don't really understand it.
