Because...

I have decided that because I am an old married woman with a very interesting life, it is time to make my blog....more....understandable. So everyone understands what is new with my cute and sweet husband. So yes. I will start with....Hmm...School.
This semester Jacob and I decided it was time for me to head back and finish up school. I applied for pell grants, and got one. So next came the admissions to Utah State. A big joke. I applied at the very beginning of November. A few weeks went by and the school sent me a letter saying that I hadn't paid the admission fee and they hadn't received my transcript. So I printed of my bank statement, marched myself into the office, and pointed out the error. I called Eastern Utah, they had my transcript on the way, SLCC doing the same. A few more weeks went by. Another letter. Apparently I still hadn't paid my admission fee, and my SLCC transcript hadn't come. This time, when I brought my bank statement, it also showed the SLCC transcript had been paid for. So after some research, they found my transcript filed under my maiden name (which was listed on my file). I was told to come back in a few days (it now being the beginning of January), to see if I was accepted. When I went back, I was told I was to late to be accepted, as it was to close to the beginning of the semester. Well that wasn't a good enough answer for me, so I wanted to meet with the head of admissions. Finally! Two months later! I am officially an Aggie.
Now school has started and it has been so exciting for me to get back into the swing of things. I am taking twelve credits and loving it. I am so happy to be finishing my education. What a happy thing! Only two years left :) So that is that. My effort to start a more "normal" blog.

yes thats right

I really do not appreciate self righteous people. Especially when they are your college professor. I mean really. Your opinions are not going to give me a full understanding of the subject. Please understand that there are more people studying the same things that you study. These people may or may not have opinions that vary from what you are teaching me. As your student I feel that I will gain a better understanding of the subject by having a curriculum that is not based off of your findings, your text, and your website. Now that I have said that, Mark McGwire! You suck. Do not lie. Steroids. Really. You know that you did them so that you could become the "ultimate" baseball player. So quit lying and saying that you did it for health reasons. If you really did take them for health reasons, don't you think you would have stopped taking them? Especially since they didn't "improve your game." You are a liar. I hate you. And yet Pete Rose cannot make it into the hall of fame. Also to the Logan newspaper, "The Herald Journal," please get a new editor. Check your facts. Don't put that the same team had two games in one day. Or that cattle are really sheep. History of China, please please please let me survive the semester. And the bookstore, you ordered my book a week ago. I really need it. Please get it or I will fall behind in my lit class. On the bright side, I can see the sky. ITS BLUE!! And BEAUTIFUL! I missed it so much. And today I made corn, ham, and potato chowder. I am so excited. The end.

Thoughts of My VERY FIRST Universtiy Class...

How come some people are in there? The doors are locked. Great. I love writing papers. Why did I get up so early? Gee whiz this class is huge, and it keeps growing. Okay Katie, surely you can figure out how this desk flap thing works. This teacher is like two years older than me. Still don't get the desk thing. So glad I bought my book....NOT...That kids shirt is really disgusting. This building smells weird. Oh thats how the desk thing works. Okay maybe not my desk thing...I wish someone would sit in front of me so I didn't have to pay attention. Ah. Its so early. Okay now the desk thing works. To bad my notebook barely fits on it. Is it time to go yet? Seriously people, if you would just listen, he already answered that question. The end.

Teddy Grams for Free

Long day. I guess hospitals have the natural ability to make people feel incredibly drained. I love my Nana. I always will love my Nana. I really admire her and so many of her wonderful qualities.
Other stories in Katie-ville. My car does not like the cold. That is why I am glad I have roadside assistance on my insurance to give my car a jump. Donating plasma is getting better. I am not so nauseous when I drink water. Christmas is/was super! Yup Jacob and I celebrated early because of traveling and such. So. Yessssss. The caps lock key fell off my computer today. I am sad. I cannot find it. My computer is sad too. Sigh. I really wish that I could fall asleep before three a.m. Apparently that is not possible, nor has it been for the last week. Happy December. The end. Love, Me

The bears are winning...

So. Fasfa. Amazingly helpful. Now I can go back to school. School....Mixed feelings, but I know it will be worth it. I am so annoyed with people that start construction work before seven am right next to my open window. Especially when I cannot fall asleep till late at night. Grr. I love the warm, and am sad to see it go. Rain makes me happy. Basketball was funny. I have a huge bruise on my knee. I recieved this bruise on Monday, and it is still huge and sore. I still need a job. I am looking forward to Thanksgiving. And Christmas. I am glad to know that Snuggie is the item of the year at Smith's for 2009. My life is now complete. Ha. So funny. A blanket with arms. Whats the score? Nothing, nothing. Who is winning? The Bears. I love it! So classic and amazing. Still. Ninja Turtles movies? Not so much....Oh well. The end.

fall falls falling fallen

Its pretty. Orange. Red. Yellow. Yuppers. I went to a concert. LOVED IT! I made a treat for my husband. It was tasty. I love him. I hope that the rent check clears soon. Idiots. I hope a paycheck comes soon. I still need a job. I still need a nap. I really never want to live in apartment again after Jacob is finished with school. Particularly on the bottom floor. Especially when your neighbors are so ridiculously noisy that things fall off your walls. I am happy. It is almost my birthday. Eating spaghetti. Macaroni Grill was a disappointment. At least it was a gift card. Bleh. I will stick to Olive Garden. Much better. I love Scrabble. Best game ever. Especially when I win. I need to win. Hehehe. I am sick of spaghetti. But we do it because we have a never ending supply.......No blue cheese? Where did it go? I got a pumpkin. I cannot wait to carve it. It was nine cents a pound. It cost three dollars for two pumkins. Jake gets to carve one too. I am so excited. Really, I have not been this excited since Saturday. Ha ha. I got a new blow dryer to replace the one that blew up on me while I was drying my hair. Burned hair does not smell so nice. The End. <3 Katie

Blissful bliss?

So. I am a married lady now. With a husband and everything. Its better than anything I imagined. I love Jacob! He is amazing. The wedding was beautiful. Perfect. For the most part. Only a few little snippy comments...from my favorite peanut gallery. I wanted Wannabe. But somehow it did not fit. I was sad when Katie told me she was not coming with us...The zoo!!! OMG! Babies. So freaking cute! I loved it. I wanna go back. One day I will go back. I am content. I am happy. I am going to a cabin tomorrow. Exciting beans. I even left my coat there because I am smart. I hope I remember shoes. Shoes are very important. I have shoes. And so does Jacob. They live in a hamper. At our apartment. Below a mirror. Isn't that intriguing? I also have a kitchen. Its so large. And a couch. And three decks of phase 10 cards...that makes for a very interesting game...Also Life. A new verision. Its very intense. Oh well. Its fun. I just don't understand why my husband knocked me outta the car when we visited the Grand Canyon.... :)
