Just life and stuff

The trees are FINALLY blooming! Provo has lots of pretty flowery trees that have pretty buds on them, and I’m starting to see some little green buds on all the rest :D

My neighbor is absolutely incapable of speaking to his year-old son in a normal, not-annoying voice. He sounds like Peewee Herman, only more guttural. Or sometimes an octave higher, but still guttural. At first, it was endearing. Now it mostly makes me want to strangle him. I’m surprised his wife hasn’t already. I told Chad I would strangle him if he talked to our son that way on any kind of consistent basis. Or occasional basis for that matter.

I got stuck talking to a crazy, crazy, crazy guy on the bus the other day. Highlights of our conversation:

• All of his ex-wives and –girlfriends were following him around, but something had happened to his memory so he didn’t know who they were, but they were following him and wanting to get back together with him all the time.
• The radio waves were changing his vision. He thought it all started when he went into the army at 18 and he wasn’t allowed to have any kind of memory because he wasn’t allowed to know what he was working on or remember anything about what he was working on. He was trying to figure it all out, and he was pretty certain he had studied medicine, sociology, psychology, etc.

I got off the bus quickly and quietly while he was occupied trying to figure out why he had gotten on the bus in the first place and where he was going.

My international business professor basically told the entire class we all got A’s. Whoopee!!

I get to go play with lambs tomorrow :) But I also have to go to a turkey farm, which has a very stinky reputation. Pictures to follow.

My wonderful Mom and sister put together the most bodacious goody box I’ve ever, ever received. Some of its wondrous contents:

• Maternity clothes (HALLELUJAH!!!!!!), including a Bella Band!!!! (Double Hallelujah!!!)
• LOTS of baby boy clothes! and a couple baby girl bubble suits to hang on to for later :D
• A beautiful antique table runner
• New mascara and grapefruit lip gloss
• A how-to-crochet CD with videos and everything! (Amigurumi here I come!)
• Stellaluna!! (one of my favorite books when I was a kid)
• Miami Ink Socks (hilarious; I think Chad might be jealous)
• This Get Fuzzy comic that nearly had Chad and I both in tears:

Best box ever. Chad’s part of the goody box comes when he gets to go to Texas (without me I might add) and stay with my family and borrow a book from my Mom that he’s been wanting to read for a long time. Lucky twerp. Not to mention he doesn't have to hear me whine anymore about how I don't fit into my own clothes.

Happy Wednesday!
