The REAL Reason for Utah's Crazy Hot Winter Temps

For any who are not aware of what is happening here in good ole Utah, I shall enlighten you. Aside from about a 2 week period over Christmas time where we had bitter cold temperatures and heaps of snow, our winter has been very....un-winter like.

The first week of February was graced by temperatures in the 60's and even lower 70's! This has naturally led to walks around the neighborhood and playing in the playgrounds, all while wearing short sleeves. It wasn't just the one week either. January, though not quite as impressive, was still quite toasty.

So why all this crazy nice spring-time weather right in the deep winter? You may have heard some theories from scientists or friends who think they know why our world is upside down this year. But don't be fooled. I know the REAL reason for the warmth.

You see, we were all abducted by aliens. This abduction lasted from January through March. When we were kindly returned to our homes in April, the aliens wiped our memories, but unfortunately, not knowing human customs, didn't know about calendars. They forgot to move our calendars forward to April. So we still think it's February, when in actuality, it's April so of course it's warm! We have the flowers coming up to prove it!

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...
