Brain Dump

Another collection of my random thoughts from the week:

I love my mechanic. I take him my car, he never lies to me, and he gives it back better than ever for a small cost. My car is now nice and cool, even though it is 4000 degrees outside. I have stronger feelings of love for him than is probably very healthy. In fact, our relationship is more meaningful than any I have had in years. Bad sign?

I could use a vacation, and I think I'm going to take one. My dear friend, Tiffy-poo-poo, and I have decided that we need to get out of Provo. Destination? Cedar City. We'll see if we can really make it work, but I am totally jazzed about going.

I miss my sister's family. One great thing about my nephews is that they just love me no matter what. Even though one fell down the stairs on my watch, and I almost fed them very moldy food (in my defense, it just looked DIFFERENT, not necessarily BAD), they love me and are happy to see me or call me. I get to snuggle and play with all my other nephews and watch them grow, but those ones are so far away. Bummer.

My roommate is hilarious. Last night, she was making a chocolate cake a bit after midnight. Why? Because she wanted to make one. And it was FANCY, not from a box or anything. I think that all of her Oprah magazines are starting to make an impact on her. A few nights ago, probably about 11 pm, she was making pizza. Why? Because she had the ingredients and wanted to use them up. I think it's adorable. And it makes the apartment smell awesome.

I want to eat some chocolate cake now.

Social networking may not be such a great idea. Twice this week I have heard stories about someone misconstruing something that they read on Facebook, and it seems so silly. It feels like high school, I think. I can't really be sure on that one because I didn't really go to high school much, but I'm gonna guess it was kind of like this. Too much drama for my taste. That's why I am still actively developing a more anti-social networking. It's going really well.

There is a show on TBS called "My Boys" that I find to be totally delightful. Cracks me up. Everyone should watch it. I think you can watch the previous episodes online for free. Definitely worth it.

I had a conversation this week that had multiple layers. One person and I had shared meanings as we talked that none of the others in the conversation knew about, and it was so hard to not laugh. Now, I suppose it has even more layers since none of you know what I am talking about, except perhaps for somebody's mother. Anyway, it made me think about how many conversations I've probably been involved in where other people had all kinds of shared meanings that I didn't know. Makes me a bit paranoid.

It's super hot outside, and I'm allergic to the red air quality situation that we have right now. Gross. I'll just stay inside and eat cake.
