Info dump

So I kinda got a cool surprise in the mail today! My hand made newsboy that I ordered from Amlowi's Esty shop!!

Anyway I'm saving it for wearing on our trip to Yellowstone. Yep Yellowstone! Squeeee! *does a mega happy dance* Over night trip with a stay in Jackson Hole. Expect lots of pic of our trip.


*sigh* Even with all the stuff going on I'm worried about money. With the trip and then with that damndable ticket I'm worried and crap. I also have to drop by the doctor to have a blood test (nothing to worry bout just a check of levels and all that normal crap) ...but still more money and time. Then on top of that John, Paul and myself are going to be picking up the new World of Warcraft expac (CEs *crosses fingers*) in Nov. Just to many things are hitting close together.

And yes some of the stuff is optional but dang it we have been planning on the CEs and Yellowstone for over a year so it is happening unless we hit the wall.

*dies*

Anyway new seasons are starting up of mine and Paul's fav shows. Best ones so far are "Supernatural" and just tonight the two hour premier of "Heros". Me and the boys have been watching "Jericho" through Netflix and it is true if you like "Lost" then you will most likely dig "Jericho".


Anyway back to the trip. I still have to gut the car and clean it really well. Inside and out would be nice but the inside windows need a really good scrub (you know what I mean Craig lol). Need to move the stuff in the trunk out to make room for our bags and supplies.


...well that is all right now. I could expand even more on the above but that would just bore you all so I'll leave it at that right now.

**Oh just a personal FYI still need to check out the library selection of audio books on CDs.

Time flies

Wow I was looking through some more of my pictures in my photobucket and came across some pictures of Paul and Rachel several years ago and WOW have they changed and grown.

Have a look:
Just hover over the pics for the description.

Other pic that are just funny:

Minds eye

There is something that drives me to try and find out why, what and how.

I think it is what drives me to take sociology, physiology, anthropology and all other classes that help people see who people are and what they do and why they do it.

Also taking classes that have to do with philosophy and world religions. Anything that lets me climb into your head and try to see the world through your eyes (or minds eye).

I have this games of sorts that I play with my siblings on long drives or while we are out running errands. I call it "What if?" I set up a situation and then ask them how they would react to it or try and solve it. It really lets me see the world through their eyes.

I dunno what drives me down this road of thought but it has helped me understand people more and help my friends and family.

Another added benefit is that it helps me in my writing. When you understand the thought process behind a person you can put more into a character (or at least that is what has helped me).

I think that is the reason why I really am taken by the Post Secret project and books.

It is one of the ultimate inside look at another persons brain. And how many people see the world in so many different ways. No to really judge the secret the same way.

You know the saying "fly on a/the wall" well I would really like to be a fly on the wall watching people sometimes.

TV spot

I keep seeing this TV spot on KBYU and it is just to cute!

Go here and look at the first one with the kid "The greatest"

Questions

I have seen this posted on a few other blogs here and there so I'm trying it out on my own.

You get to ask me any 5 questions about anything. Then I get to ask you any 5 questions in return. If you have a LJ/blog post this up.


So there have at it! Any 5...

Got to love Wikipedia!

Lost...

I just had this strong feeling of anger and sadness hit me just now out of the blue as I was reading through another LJ community and it had nothing to do with what I was reading.

I have so much negative crap built up over the last 10+ years having to do with my parent and right now all the things that have to do with my father have come to a head.

Before my father's mother passed on she made amends (made up, cleared the air) with her daughters (my father's sisters) so that there was nothing left feel mad or pained about between them before she died. No unresolved issues between mother and daughters.

I really feel like I need to do this with my dad. He has been getting more and more health problems in the last year and with this it makes you know how close he could be to passing on.

I need to say things to him. Things I know that will hurt him and pain him. Things I need to get out in the air between us so that if anything happens I can move past them. So self centered I know but I can't help but have these feeling after some of the things that he has said and done over the year about me. It hurts to have a parent look down on you no matter who and what you are and I need him to know that not only has this pained me for years and years but that he is also doing it to Rachel and even John and Paul to a lesser extent.

But I can't do this while he is sick as it might hurt his recovery... but if he passes away before I can talk to him and we clear this up I will never be able to think of my father without a tainted ping of hurt. I know if this is how I feel that my siblings need to as well. All our lives have been hard and we all have had crap to go through but I feel this needs to be done.


I'm so lost as to what to do...
