California and The Move

Your Loveable Rage Here -
Incidentally, the title of this update is also the name of my new band. Anyways... the most stressful move of my life in almost over. I spent days moving my shiz and then headed off to cali.

California was awesome! I spent the majority of my time doing several different activities. This list is in order of activities that I spent the most time to least time doing.

1. Laying in the Sun
2. Wakeboarding
3. Playing Guitar Hero III
4. Wake Surfing (I dominated this year)
5. Sleeping
6. Watching the Olympics
7. Eating

It was the perfect vacation. There were several other highlights:

1. The Olympic synchronized diving contest my sister and I held, participated in and
won. It is so easy when you are the only team participating and your mom is the
judge.

2. Forcing my brother-in-law to wakeboard even though he didn't want to - I didn't
give him a choice. He got up on his first try - I'm a genius.

3. Beating Guitar Hero on Medium after only ever playing for three days in my life.
I know, not that amazing but I felt like I really accomplished something.

4. Singing in Church. Yea, my mother springs it on us every year. This year it was
arrangement of Nearer My God To Thee. It went well, I hated it - at least my mom
was happy.

Well, that's that for now. I'm back and even went back to work today, it was not as fun as California but more fun than moving.

Next Post:
The Great Mattress Move of 2008 - it involved lashing it to the X. Amazing! There will hopefully be pictures.

The Beginning Of The End - I Was Right.

Quote of the Week: "Ew, he has thick thighs."

My quote of the week comes from Michele in reference to an actor of whom Abby is quite fond (I don't know why - he is such an uggo). Now that's done - let's get going on the post.

The real reason I'm here is to let everyone know of the Great Move of 2008.

All of the cliches and sayings apply:

It was a great run.
Let's just be friends.
It's me, not you.
Don't take this personally but...
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.
Blah, blah, blah

Here's the deal, the two basics:
1. I'm moving.
2. I'm crap at keeping in touch with people.

Ask anyone who has every live further than the next door over (even that is too far in some cases) - I suck. I don't write and I don't call.

The worst part is:
I DON'T CARE.

I mean, not really. It's not that we aren't friends and it's not that I don't like/love you anymore. I just suck at correspondence.

The Plea:
That being said, don't give up on me. Yes, I'm moving to a house in southwest provo. Yes, I'll still have my cell. Yes, I hope to see you around. Yes, I hope to see you at the occasional shindig.

The Kicker?:
The Master Plan has totally worked.

P.S.
I won't have a computer for awhile so this is most likely one of the last - if not The Last post for a bit. I'll miss you all. Oh, and I'll be in Cali next week. So expect not to hear from me for a long time :) Tchau!
