My Wife the Martian...

I don't know if you've seen the movie "Martian Child" but if you haven't you should. It is a really good flick. In the movie there is a scene where John Cusack is with the the little boy who is supposedly a Martian proving he is an alien by tasting colors. So John has the little boy close his eyes and eat different colored M&M's telling him which color he has eaten. The boy gets every color right. I'm not stupid, I know it was scripted. Shortly after watching that film the wife and I were at the movies and I of course had to try this out. She guess all of the colors correctly. I thought it was funny and remarkably against the odds. Well I did it again tonight with my wife having her eat different colored "Kissables" seeing as we lacked M&M's. I did this about seven times and she correctly named each color that was in her mouth. I'm blown away and now convinced that she is in fact a Martian.


I knew she was an alien, she is from outside the United States. I didn't know that she was indeed from mars though. Not surprising really. It explains a lot of things actually. She is totally impressive and I am now convinced she has super powers. What I thought were superb skills can actually be attributed to her powers. The way she can always find my lost whatever (mostly keys), keep the house clean without any real effort, lightning wits and so forth. I thought for the longest she was just hiding my keys so she could look impressive but it now appears that she truly is impressive and I was really losing my keys. And yes that is the closest I'll get to admitting I'm wrong. Well I'm off to bed and praying that now I've discovered her secret life she'll not develop a taste for brains or some other vital organ of mine. I'd hate to be dead, I've grown rather fond of her alien or no...

Happy Halloween


Well it is halloween and I thought I'd celebrate b y posting a picture of my x-rays.
Well I have a straight neck, it should be a little more curved, but that is my neck and head.
So I've been getting some texts occasionally from someone with a cell company based in alaska. Today they sent me a picture of a couple fishing, looked like the husband (I'm guessing here) was reeling in a big one. Anyways I have no clue who they are and I proceed at an attempt to inform the individual I am not who they think I am. the conversation went as follows:
Me: Great picture but I think you have the wrong number... Really. I don't know these people (referring to the aforementioned people in the picture) :s
Alaska: I know dis is u!
Me: I know who I am but I don't know who you are. Really...
Alaska: Hmmm I will have to verify... Glad u know who u are :)
Me: Wish you will on find who it is you are after

Thus ending the conversation. I was kind of hoping it was some friend pulling a practical joke but alas no. Well have a happy ghoulish night tomorrow. Again I make the commitment to try and maintain this blog better. I have another blog at http://chirostu.blogspot.com/ all about my experience at chiropractic school. Catch you all later.

I just wanted to let my wife know here (and the world wide web) that I love her and think she is fantastic. She is the absolute best thing about me. I love her very much and I'm glad she is mine. We've been married five years and counting and I'll never get bored counting...

Ode to the earbuds

Ahh ear buds.  Why have large goofy looking ear phones when you can pump the music straight into the ear canal?  The benefits of ear buds are numberless.  My favorite is the accelerated hearing loss program.  Crank the things up full blast and you too can be deaf by the ripe old age of 35.  Who really needs to be able to hear after that age anyways right?  


Why is it people feel the need to crank the music all the way up on those tiny things?  Don't they realize how harmful that is.  This all comes from what I saw today.  I was studying in a near empty room and this girl walks in.  She sits as far away from me as possible with ear buds in her ears and I can hear her music almost perfectly.  I can't make out the words but when it comes to the songs I'm familiar with I could sing along.  The room was a large room as well.  That is way too loud.  I could almost hear the ear cells responsible for hear bursting out of existence.  That's it, they aren't coming back.  Maybe its the new cool thing to do.  Maybe hearing aids became fashionable while I was busy trying to study.  Oh well, at least I'll still be able to hear a mosquito when I'm 70 :P!

Elder's Activity

We had a chili cook off and played dodge ball.  The best part of the game was when we switched over to Doctor Dodge ball.  One of the guys there, from canada, taught us all how to.  So when you get out instead of going to prison you sit down on the spot.  The person who is the doctor runs up and gets you and drags you back to the revive line.  If the doctor gets hit though, not matter what he is doing, he's out unless it hits any thing that is not a person first.  It was a lot of fun.  Of course the janitors don't have to sweep up the gym after we used it.  All the dirt is on our backs now :S

Exams

I got my grad report this past week and I'm pretty stoked about it. I just have to make sure to pass the classes I'm taking this semester. Things are going ok though. 

Laura and I are excited about moving on to the next chapter of our lives together.
