Sad Day

Brutus finally started to lift his leg:(  This makes me sad.  Today was his first day at the dog park and he did a pretty good job...but then he learned how to lift his leg. Break my heart. My dog is all grown up!

Gloom and Doom

I have come to realize that I am a 'gloom and doom' kind of person. I came to this realization the other day. I was talking to my brother Christian. I asked him if his girlfriend was going to come to his Eagle Court of Honor. Christian didn't know and his response was, that she was having a rough day. I asked him why and he said, "I don't know. Girls have 9-11 happen to them every day." This is me too! Its like every day is 9-11 (but not really because it is my birthday). I started this blog initially because I wanted to tell my dating stories. Well, I still have plenty of them, but it seems like they are all gloom and doom. Or, I just have have time to deal with it. I'm exhausted...end of story.

When you go to high school, people ask where you see your self in five or ten years. Well, I didn't think in high school I would be still going to college, have a dog, living in my parents basement, not married, no kids, and be in debt. These are all things that I didn't even think about. Sometimes I think life is just mean and cruel...but then I think about other people that really do have crappy lives and I know I shouldn't complain. I think I just need a 'me' day where I can rest and relax and not think about anything.

I have also come to realize I hate dating. I don't want to do it anymore. Andy (tattoo) is gerk. He makes me so mad and he makes me cry....but I still go back for me. Its kind of confusing. He found out I was still dating other people and he got pissed. Ugh, the whole thing is stupid, but I kinda like him.

Mustache (Chris) I think finally decided to give up on me because I never had time for him. I think it would be different if I didn't have a dog. My dog need attention, so I have to go home after either working an eight hour day or leaving the house at six am to go to school. Plus, Chris lives in Tooele...that is like an hour away! He was nice though. He is one of those guys I would classify as "I wish I liked him" kind of guys.

Tristain (monster truck) is not mad at me any more. I paid up on my debt to him by going to Texas Road House. This pissed Andy off because he made him jealous. Whatever. It wasn't a date, I was just paying  up on a debt.

Carlos is finally leaving me alone too. He also realizes how busy I am. But, if I really wanted to, I would make time for him. I make time for Andy all the time. Ugh. Dating sucks.

There have been other guys here and there along the way. Nothing really comes of it. Tim finally is leaving me alone. I told him for like the 10th time I am not interested and he finally is getting the hint. Bless his heart. He started drinking though. Lame.

Shelby didn't go to Minnesota after all. I am sad that things didn't work our for her and Bryan. I told her I would go to Disneyland...but I don't think I can afford it. I change my mind ALL the time!!!

Well....I think its time to get back to my homework. I have to decide if I want to go back to English or Business Management next semester:( Ugh. I need to get married so someone else can make my decisions  I don't seem to be making good ones...so I need someone to make them for me!

St. George

If I can, I like to take trips. One weekend, I took my sister and her two kids to St. George to play with my friend Megan. It was a lot of fun. 
'

 The pool was a lot of fun. Greyson and Memphis can't swim...but that didn't stop them from jumping into the pool. It sure was fun.

 We went to dinner at the "Black Bear Diner". It was some good food. Memphis was being very 'proper' with her dinner. It was cute.


 We had to stop on the way to St. George at the gas station with the big chair. Here is Michelle and Memphis and Greyson.


We also went to a dinosaur museum. It was boring...but we went anyway.

Shelby's Cabin 2012

My friend Shelby has a pretty awesome cabin in the mountains.  Its a lot of fun up there. It's nice and secluded. Even though it is a cabin, it has all the things a house does, minus internet. One of our favorite things is riding 4-wheelers. This time was extra fun because this time Shelby and I had to share a 4-wheeler, it had just rained, and we went with a group of people.


 This is us before we left. Why are we so cool? Oh, its because we are wearing the same sweater, but mine is from Tennessee and Shelby's is from Minnesota. We are cool like that.



Usually we have our own 4-wheeler, but this time we needed to share. Well, a bug flew into Shelby's mouth so she turned around to spit it out. Don't worry...she spit on me. We laughed SO hard!



The people we went 4-wheeling with would stop like every five minutes...so we got bored.


Riding on the back of the 4-wheeler is relaxing, but lame.


One of the things we stopped to look at was a bear trap. I just didn't understand. It was just some sticks piled up. After making a comment about this 'bear trap', I was then made fun of the rest of the ride. Anyway, the explained to me how the trap worked. It still didn't make sense, but it caught a bear...so it apparently does work. 



There are a lot of loggers up there in the mountains. The draw pictures of naked people. 



I got a little muddy after:/

That is pretty much the extent of the trip. It was a lot of fun and I think the cabin is a perfect destination to get away.
