My wife is the Best...

So yesterday I had a bit of trouble when I couldn't find my jump drive (which happened to be around my neck the whole time)  I looked all over.  I thought I had droppedit in the snow which would have been really bad because the Jump Drive is white.  On top of that it has everything I need for school on it and life in general.  I was, needless to say, distressed.  Laura made me lunch that day so I was able to enjoy that while walking home slowly retracing my steps to see if I had dropped it in the snow.  It's normally a 15 min walk from my house to school.  It was a bit longer and it was really cold.   Laura had hot chocolate waiting for me and laughed only a little when I found my jump drive.  I had to go back to school, but I really didn't want to walk through the snow again.  It was a long day yesterday.  When I got home from school finished for the day at 4pm Laura suggested we play MarioKart Wii while dinner was finishing up.  I went to the window sill to get the game and found hidden in the stack ROCK BAND 2!!!  It was fantastic!  The game is awesome but I was just content holding it in my hands knowing Laura got it for me.  She had ordered it earlier in the week but it arrived yesterday and the timing couldn't have been better.  Now if I can just focus on my studying for the exams I have coming up...

Rant!

I love going to school at BYU Idaho, but I absolutely cannot stand the winters here.  It is unbelievable COLD here.  I find it unfair that parts of alaska are warmer than here.  Same with Canada.  Some people had work canceled as well as school being canceled.  Except BYU-I continues with school.  Goodness!  The focasted high for today: 13F.  Fantastic...

School and Car troubles...

First off I'm not a car guy, I'm just a guy with a car and car troubles...


So we got back from Scotland and I was worried about all the snow that was going to be covering my car. To my pleasant surprise Most of the snow was melted off the roads and my car. It was great. I ran around picked stuff up for school and that was that for the next 3 days. Sunday we were getting ready to leave for church, everyone else already had, and as I turned the key I heard a click and everything went dead. No dashboard, no clock, no automated door locks, nothing at all worked. The battery had given up the ghost. So we didn't make it to church cause walking would have been too hard on Laura's back in the freezing weather and it is about a 10 minute walk. Monday I got a new battery only to find that everything holding my old dead battery was rusted tight. So I just removed the cable terminals from the battery terminals and waited till Tuesday to do all the hard work. It took my a lot of time to get past the stupid rust and get the battery all cleaned up and such. I finally did get the new battery in but the negative cable terminal had rusted through and snapped in half so today I had to get a new one and attach it to the negative cable. Three days for a battery replacement. That was dumb. Oh well the car works now, here's hoping it stays that way for a long while.

So I've been having to juggle car repair around school and I'm glad this semester isn't as hard as I thought it would be. Its a 14 credit hour semester for me thank goodness. I decided that Chiropractics is the life for me when watching my sister in law remove her false tooth sent shivers up and down my spine. I really don't understand it. I've seen plenty of dental procedure images. No problem. Apparently the real deal gets to me though and I've become rather interested with chiropractics now so that is that. I'm looking at a school on the west coast. Pacific Ocean how I have missed thee...

New Year

Happy 2009. We welcomed the new year in by watching the sunrise down at the beach. It was really cold but it was pretty. We got some really good pictures of it. I've yet to figure out my resolutions for the year but I figure I'll aim low so I can succeed :P. Have a great year everyone, I'm going to sleep.

Hope you enjoy the Scottish Sunrise :D
