Not Quite the Same

As we were watching the Democratic National Convention and Obama was speaking, the camera panned out and showed a group of people on their phones. Eric sat for a second looking at that and asked "Can you vote by text?" 
"No... This isn't American Idol..."
"Oh..." He sat there puzzled for a while.

So... Why can't we vote by text? Seems less complicated to me.

Excerpts

Grandma was here this weekend... here are a few excerpts from our conversations. Enjoy :)

"Isn't he a hunk?! Come on. Megan, isn't he a hottie?!?!" (Speaking of a cousin...)

"You know how to learn if someone isn't being faithful in a marriage? Watch a soap opera. They teach you everything to look for in a marriage where someone isn't being faithful." 

And my favorite...

"Someone should probably go screw the tops of the bottles back on in the shower downstairs. I took them all off and I just can't screw at 10 0'clock at night. I just can't screw at 10. It's too late."
(This is where we all burst out laughing)
"Well I can't." (Looks at me and my sister) "And neither should you girls! No screwing at 10 at night!"
(And all my self control left and I was left crying on the floor, shaking from laughing so hard.)
"And get your minds out of the gutter!"

Harry Potter

Watch This!

So for those that don't know, I've got this little obsession with Harry Potter. Only a little obsession though. I only re-read the series every summer- except last summer :(. And lets just say I'm having some serious cravings. For the books and the movies. Mostly the books. But I don't have copies at school :(

Anyone want to have a Harry Potter movie marathon?!?!

Look!

Guys. Girls. Puppies. Kitties.

Look.

Look.

LOOK.

It's Alaska...

Where there are hospitals...

Hospitals with lots and lots of jobs.

Where they're willing to hire new grads.

And I'm (almost) a new grad...

Beautiful right?

Saturday Night

What does a sick nursing student do on a saturday night?
      Listen to her lung sounds of course.
      Result? Crackles in lower lungs- anterior and posterior.
              Dry, hacking unproductive cough
              Regular S1 and S2
              Apical pulse 72


Bleh. I don't feel so good.

Breaking Up without Going to Pieces: When Dating Doesn't End in Marriage. By M. Gawain Wells- Ensign 1982.


I think all dating girls should get a copy of this article. Boys too. I wish I had had this article a year ago. I'm glad I stumbled upon it now! I think every "marriage age" person should read it if they haven't. It's an article about breaking up. Not about marriage, or getting answers. Breaking up. And it gives some good, real truths that take a lot of time to find out, and even longer to believe. So read this article.
