Mosquito Bait

I am currently suffering from the extremely painful itching of 30+ mosquito bites-and this is now joke! Fifteen bites were from the friendly mosquitos at Mt. Logan Middle School, where I played volleyball last Tuesday night and the rest attacked me when I went on my ward camp-out on Friday night.

I don't know what it is about me, but they just seem to love me. And, you must understand, the mosquito bites that I get are not just any regular bites-they turn into cancerous, deformed, white bubbles that spread throughout my body like a good piece of juicy gossip. Quite frankly they are disgusting.

So on Saturday afternoon, with my eight cancers on my forehead, I decided to attend La Boheme, an Italian opera that is playing for the Utah Festival Opera. Don't worry, they didn't kick me out because of my massive deformed face, they escorted me to the nearest handicap seat and advised me to not fret about the intent staring of others in the opera hall. They believed I must be part of Make a Wish Foundation and this was my wish-to attend an opera before I died.

I happened to be offered tickets to that night's performance of The Music Man also. "What the heck," I thought,"two performances in one day, why not?" It's not like my bites were going to get any better and since both of the shows were free to me I might as well enjoy them.

Oh, don't you even worry, this is not the end of my story-On Sunday, to add to my ugly face I managed to burn myself, not only once, but twice, with my curling iron. Doing your hair is so overrated.

Maybe if I'm lucky my mosquito bites and burn marks will be cleared up by Saturday for family pictures-that would be cool.

If nothing else comes from this experience I have become a little more cultured.

Coming soon . . . .Post #4: The Great Picnic

You should all prepare yourself for upcoming post. It will be good- with pictures and all! You may even think it's the best post you've ever seen. Stay tuned. . .

Post #3: Family and Push-ups

So, I don't know what's so facinating about reading other people's blogs and learning about their adventures, whether they be fun and exciting or just dumb, but I kind of like it! It's interesting to learn what people think of situations from their point of view.

Anyway, I'm getting to feel like an old veteran of this blogging business-I mean I am already on my third post! I just have to say that my family is coming tomorrow and I'm super excited about that! There's always a guarantee that I'll have a good time with them-they're pretty much a happenin' party all by themselves and heck, who wouldn't want to be with them?!

Another thing: I decided it's time to start my nightly ritual of push-ups again. I'm getting weak compared to my days of moving pipe. I better step it up.

Any encouraging or motivational letters can be sent to: 6 University Hillway #1, Logan, UT 84321. They'd be much appreciated.

Ok, that is all.

"and you guys up there, you're the heart and the soul and the reason we do what we do. . .here's to you"

This past weekend I had the chance to go to Vegas and see Rascal Flatts in concert. It was a great time and great fun - Full of drunken fans, off-key singers, millions of people, heat, and everything else that is included in a trip to Vegas. I don't quite understand how one person can consume so much alcohol at one time-incredible, but there are many who were able to enlighten me on this matter while I was at the concert.
The concert itself was amazing though! The Wreckers and Gary Allan opened for the Flatts and it was all a good time! Rascal Flatts are good at entertaining and I must say that it's about the best concert I've ever been to. Despite the 2nd to last row seat and the 14-hour drive it was a great trip!

So, you have succeeded. After the many ideas and not-so-subtle hints that I should just start my own blog it has happened. This instant way of sharing your life experiences with everyone has now entered my life and I don't know if I'll ever be the same. Who knows, maybe I'll become addicted to it like ice cream, or facebook. Although I do enjoy reading about my close family's experiences and what they do in their everday lives, I don't know how I feel about people reading about mine. I'm not much into posting my life on the internet for anyone to see. So, here it goes. Wish me luck!
