Unrecognizable

As a preface: There were two BYU men's volleyball games this weekend. One Friday night, one Saturday. We went to the Friday night one. Saturday Jarom wasn't feeling well so we stayed home. Both nights they played Pepperdine. Whenever we do go, we usually sit on the north side of the building, right down on the floor behind the servers.

Saturday, about 15 minutes after we knew the game would have started, we turned on the TV to see if it was being broadcast.

We found it.

We watched for a few minutes. We saw our friend Craig on TV sitting where he always does behind the server. Our conversation went as follows:

Jarom: "There's Craig!"

Me: "Oh yeah, there he is."

Me: "Who is that...right next to him? I don't recognize her."

The camera pans away for a few moments so we have to wait for a better view.

Jarom: "I don't know, she looks a lot like Lisa, but it's not."

Waiting for a few more minutes.

Camera comes back to Craig and mystery girl.

Me: "Oh...That's me!"

Confusion.

Come to find out, we were watching the game that happened the night before. It wasn't live. The current game was not on. I was watching myself. I relate this to what people describe as having and out-of-body experience, looking down on themselves. The saddest part, obviously, is that I didn't recognize myself. And neither did Jarom. Wow we are lame. I'm going to say it's because I just got a haircut..yes. That is a good reason.

Oh, and to add to that, the fact that Jarom thought of me looking like Lisa. Lisa and I already have a hard enough time with people getting us mixed up and thinking we're sisters...or the same person. I thought I was safe with my husband...

Good and Bad Discoveries of the Week

This week we have discovered the secret to life in Provo!! I am serious, it's the best thing ever, and everyone who lives in or near Provo, must take advantage of this secret to life. 1. Go to the Winsong movie theater 2. Purchase a ticket for "Take" (preferably Matinee) 3. Preferably, do not watch this movie because it is a waste of time. But if you have nothing better to do with yourself, go ahead and watch it. 4. Take your movie stub to the dollar theater located by Costco in Orem 5. Finally, enjoy UNLIMITED free movies at this theater. That's right, I said UNLIMITED FREE MOVIES at the dollar theater. I know this sounds to good to be true, but it is oh so true. I have done it, and it works. Last night, we watched a free Indiana Jones from this movie ticket. It was amazing. The movie Take is pretty worthless, but the reward is priceless. Ok, so on to the bad discoveries of the week. I have recently become aware of the advantages and disadvantages that tag along with...

Cake 2.0

Here is our second attempt at fondant covered, decorated cake. We're still working on getting things smoother looking and stuff. It's a chocolate cake with caramel filling. Unfortunately the caramel didn't turn out quite like it was supposed to. It turned into basically sugar. It's probably because I was lazy and used margarine instead of butter. But it's still sweet and that's what's important right?

Going Away Present

Tomorrow is going to be my last day of work at good old Independent Study. It's kind of sad, but also kind of exciting and scary all at the same time. It's sad because I've been here for so long. This is the longest I've ever had one job, and I have made a lot of really good friends here. It's exciting because I will get to have a lot of time off to do whatever I want during the day! And it's scary because I don't have another job lined up yet. After 6 months of applying and interviewing, I'm still none the better for it. I was lucky enough to have one co-worker who cared enough about me and my departure to give me a going-away present. I don't really know why I'm sharing it with you, but here it is: This is the picture he used as a reference to update mine with: Any resemblance? It took him two days to create this picture. He said I was wise enough to become a General Authority. I told him I would have to be a man for that. So he decided to mak...
