I like your bangs!

I drove home to Henderson on the 21st of December. I had a good time there and got a lot of cool stuff for Christmas! I got pajamas (3 pair) socks, obviously, an iPod cover case for my new nano video iPod, the most awesome CSI game ever, and some other cool stuff. The CSI game is so FUN! You start at the crime scene and collect evidence and then go back to the lab and process it all. You get to match up finger prints and DNA and all sorts of cool stuff! I love it if you couldn't tell by this paragraph.

I also got BANGS! I was so nervous, not because I don't trust Eliza with my hair but because cutting my hair is very traumatic ever since I got a rock star mullet one time, not by choice obviously. I didn't know how I felt about them at first but I love them now. Everyone is telling me how different it makes me look and how hot I am so I am just going to believe them. It changes the whole shape of my face and shows my face more. Anyway I just bored the crap out of myself with this paragraph so I can only imagine how you guys felt about it... sorry OK?

I start school on Thursday and I am pretty nervous. I haven't been in school for 2 1/2- 3 years or something! I haven't actually gone to school (meaning other school than home school) in like 5 years so I don't know what to expect. Plus I will be working full time and going to school full time so I will be keeping myself very busy! I am really excited though to be able to finally start my education! I am excited to meet new people at school and to learn a lot of interesting things about criminal justice. Plus I am in a physical fitness class so maybe I'll get my self back into good shape, or into shape period. I don't know if I have ever been in "good" shape but it is fun to pretend I have.

Happy belated Birthday to Bridger and early birthday to Seana.... even though she mostly only leaves comments on Eliza's page which makes me cry and punch walls. That goes for the rest of that clan and don't act like you don't know who you are, Nat, Chelsa, Jen and whoever else. I see how you guys roll...

Have a very Happy New Year and I love most of you that read this probably. I can't make any promises though.

Oh and P.S. you guys are really awesome!

It only took me a month...

Hi. Sorry OK?? My life is boring and I don't want to bore all of you with the details of it. I have been tagged and so I guess I will do that now.

1. I am very OCD. If I am taking a message for someone at work on a post it note, sometimes I have to rewrite it like 4 times. My trash can is always full of crumpled up post it notes because it just doesn't look right the first few times! I count my steps and and my steps have rhythm. I can't walk off beat or it really bugs me. My volume on the TV, CD player, car radio or anything with countable volume, has to be on an odd number. I HATE even numbers. They think they are so much better than odd numbers just because they are paired up evenly. Well the odd numbers always have more fun! Also I spell words out in my head when someone is talking to me. I don't know if this is to see if I can spell as fast as people can talk or if it is to see if I can spell the words people are saying. I guess both ways are educational. I was telling my dad about this obsessive behavior once and he told me that he counted steps too sometimes. He even told me how many stairs were in our house. It was funny. I also wash my hands A LOT. Sometimes I feel like the germs just are there teasing me. If I touch a shopping cart I don't want to move my hands because I feel like I will get a whole new set of germs and I feel like the bar from the cart just left a strip of germs right there and it won't go away until I scrub or sanitize or both. When I lock my car from my key chain locker thing I have to make it beep an odd number of times too but more than 1. So it usually ends up beeping 3 times but if I accidentally hit it 4 times I have to do it again. It is annoying. I will stop now so I still have friends.

2. I am a very picky eater. I will not let my food touch each other on my plate. I even have gone as far as taking a paper towel and wiping my ranch or gravy off my plate before I put something else there. People say it all goes to the same place so why does it matter? I know where it all ends up and I don't care where it ends up. The important thing to me about eating is how it tastes going down. I really love pickles and I really love ice cream. I also really like peanut butter but even though it all ends up in the same place it wouldn't be very appetizing mixed together now would it? I am not very good at trying new things. If I smell it and it doesn't smell good I won't eat it. I smelled cheesecake as a child and thought it smelled repulsing. So I never tried it until about a month ago. It is so good. That was one of the only good examples of me trying a new thing and liking it. I usually don't. I tried eggnog for the first time a couple weeks ago and hated it. The texture, taste and color of it was disgusting! I don't eat pork because it is all disgusting. Sometimes ham if it is disguised or pepperoni but sausage, bacon, or anything else pork is yucky.

3. I refuse to share Milk with anyone. Any dairy product really. It is so revolting. I will share any other drink with people I like that don't have diseases but NEVER milk. And I find it nauseating when parents eat cereal or any kind of food after their kids. It makes me gag. You don't know what their grubby hands have been into before they plunged them into their food.

4. I still have my baby blanky. I sleep with it often. Not every night but often. I love it. It is so cute and in much better shape than Jacob's blanky. It is my security blanky. I also have a security superman pillow and spider man blanket.

5. I am a Rock star. I play the drums in an awesome band. I also can tear it up on the guitar. I do vocals sometimes and do pretty well. Oh I forgot to mention that it is on the X-box and it is called rock band, but I am still a rock star. I am addicted to that game!

6. I am the tallest girl in my family. It took Eliza a couple years to accept the fact that I was even though I was looking down to talk to her and the measurement board we have in our house told her! I still like her and I am glad she is the runner up. I keep growing I think. I used to be 5'9 then 5'10 and now a little more than that I think. When I wear heels I can get up to like 6'3!!!

7. I have a serious case of BCS. I think those of you in my family know what I am talking about but BCS stands for butt crack syndrome. No matter what I am wearing my bum hangs out when I bend over. I have tried belts and my sweet mother thinks my pants are too low which may be the case sometimes but not all the time. I think my crack starts right at the same level as my pits. Sorry if this offends any of you but it is true and it is a big part of my life. I think even when I wear a body suit or overalls it shows. I know it sounds impossible but somehow it finds its way to the surface. It just needs some air ya know?

That is me in a nutshell. A very big nutshell! Hey how did I get in this nutshell.... Have you ever seen a nutshell this size?!?

Thanks for reading and I am not going to tag anyone because everyone that reads this has been tagged plus I hope this cycle ends soon! I love you all and I will try to be more religious in writing in my blog! (even though my therapist always tells me trying is lying and he also says do or do not there is no try...he is smart) Happy holidays!! (just in case I do not succeed in writing)

Headlines don't sell papes... Newsies sell papes!

Hi. I know I know. It has been forever. Forgive me please. A LOT has happened for sure. I don't remember when this was but, my friend Jen, Ingrid and I went to a masquerade ball... It was pretty fun. It was the first time I got to formally dress up since I never went to prom, homecoming, etc. I really enjoyed it. It was up at Sundance ski lodge and they had food and dancing. The food was kind of sick so we went to Chili's and ate there. I love Chilis' Southwestern egg rolls and skillet queso! DELICIOUS!

Ingrid and I drove to Vegas to go to Heidi, Johanne and Sarah's Baptism and it was so awesome! I have never seen Heidi so happy before. I asked her why she wanted to get baptised since she had gone through so many churches trying to figure out which one she thought was true and she was never happy with any of them. She told me that it was simply because she never felt anything with any of the other churches and she KNOWS this one is true and she had never felt the spirit that way before. It was really cool to talk to her about it since I have known her for YEARS and she never was interested or never understood. Now she is wanting to go on a mission and she cleaned up her language completely. She goes to church regularly and she wants to marry a return missionary. She loves going to the temple grounds and she loves going to church activities! It makes me SO happy to see her this happy again. It had been years. She wants someone to do her dad's temple work someday since he was never able to before he died. She is so excited to be able to see him again too! I am really pleased with her and proud of her. We went to the Dr. Phil show the morning before the baptism. It was really awesome. They said to cheer for Dr. Phil and they were handing out books for the ones cheering the best I guess and I got one... then I won a mug for shaking my thang! It was fun and Eliza, Ingrid and I were laughing at really inappropriate things. To see us on the show it is airing November 7th and it is about a little 15 year old girl who was prostituting and getting beat up by poor pimps and stuff. Dr. Phil is really funny and kind and I love him!

My mom, Jacob and Eliza drove ahead of Ingrid and I to head back up to Utah. That night we went to Tyler's play and it was pretty good. Tyler is REALLY good and he is great at staying in character even when talking to us.... It was fun to see him in that. The next day Ingrid and I got our nails done together and she hated her but mine looked pretty good. We took our moms and Eliza to lunch at the Brazilian restaurant Tucanos. It is really good, except for that really nasty lemonade that tasted like hospital toilet water with A LOT of nasty pulp in it. Then we went to Cafe Rio for dinner with a lot of our cousins and Aunts. It was a girls party so no boys were allowed! Then the next day my family left, sadly. I hate when I see them go.

For Halloween I was a Newsie! I know, PRETTY AWESOME RIGHT? I played the Newsies soundtrack all day at work. It looked cool... I also didn't want to carry newspapers around all day like they did... So I carried a messenger bag full of rolled up papers which I am sure at least ONE of them did! I went to Jana's Ward's trunk or treat and then to a few parties that were ok. There was this HUGE party that I am pretty sure everyone that lived in Provo attended but it was SO LAME! There were WAY too many people and no one was dancing to the music, that you could hardly hear by the way, and there were so many stinky people. I was personally feeling claustrophobic. So then I went home and Slept to get ready for work the next morning.

Ingrid might be moving in with me! We don't know for sure but I would love it! We don't have to drive so far to borrow each others clothes or hang out! It will be awesome if she does!

By the way it is really freezing here now in the mornings! I came to work with a long winter coat and gloves on this morning! This is not the same coat this is from the other night! I hate being freezing!

I am Registering for classes is about an hour! I am so excited about it! I can't wait! I took the compass exams already for placement and did a lot better than I thought I would! I scored into the highest English/Writing class I could, the highest Reading class that I could which was something like advanced critical thinking or something and then just the regular algebra class which is better than I thought I would on that. I thought I would go into the pre-math class to be reintroduced but I guess I am not as dumb as I thought. So I will have to post a quick blog when I get back telling you guys what classes I got in to. I am sure there is tons more I should write about but I can't think of anything else right now! Sorry. Maybe when I get back but I need to go to my appointment with my academic advisor now. See ya!

I am smart!

Hello all. Today is going to be a quick post and I'll write more in a few days. I am very excited to report that I am officially a college student YAY! I am going to UVSC starting in the beginning of January! I am really excited. I never thought I would miss school but I do. It has been like 2 1/2 years! I still need to take the ACT since I never freaking took it. I took a practice one online and FAILED BADLY!!! It all looked familiar but it just wasn't coming back to me. It was sad and pathetic and not to mention really embarassing. The score doesn't matter too much though. It is just to see what level classes to place me in for math, english and something else really unimportant. I am going to get a bachelors of science in Criminal Justice. It is going to ROCK! I don't like to read very often but I found myself reading about criminal topics. I KNOW! Audrey Diane Parry likes to read on her free time, about cool stuff obviously. So I am pleased that I am going to be studying something that is of interest to me so I don't want to blow my head off everyday in class.

It will be TONS cheaper if I qualofy for residency which I am hoping I will one of two ways. On a sheet with a list of severaly ways to get residency it says if I left the state for less than 12 months for work or school than it can be counted as just an absence and if I can prove why I was there (which I can because I have my tax forms) then I could probably qualify. I lived here 11 months, then moved to Georgia for 10 months and now I have been back for 5 months. 12 months makes you a resident so I am hoping they aren't anal. If that doesn't work, Mom and Dad signed guardianship of me over to Jana (my cousin) back in 2005 before I was 18 so that she could check me into rehab. My legal guardian had to and my parents lived in vegas. The point I am trying to make is that before I turned 18 my last guardian was Jana who is a resident of Utah and has been since she was born 21 years ago. (hehe) And if my parent or guardian is a resident of Utah I get residency! I am hoping I get it somehow. Maybe I will just wear a low cut shirt or something. I don't know. I love you guys and I'll post again soon. BYE

Hello, First off I am wearing Ingrid's REALLY cute shirt in this picture of me curtsying. I was really bored at work and thought I would do a fashion show for Jen, my co-worker.



Ok, I saw Hairspray and LOVED it. I went with Amelia and missed the first 5 minutes because we were eating. We do that alot, we are fat pigs. I embarassingly enough found myself clapping, which I make fun of people doing, during one of the scenes. Out of respect for those who haven't seen it I will refrain from telling you what happened. If you care you can ask and I'll tell you. I went again to see it 2 days later! Ingrid and Jana accompanied me and I missed the first 5 minutes AGAIN because I was in a long line for 20 minutes. AND we had to sit in the front row on the side. The front row is bad enough but on the side everyone looks distorted and ugly. John Travolta as a woman is heinous enough to look at. I did enjoy him in it though.

Ingie and I went to this dance place the other night with 2 of her friends. I ran into Lexi and like 6 people I havent seen in awhile that I had gone to high school with. Lynzie Glaus, Kelly Angulo, and some others I have seen since highschool. Kelsey Day, Janae Olsen, Lexi's cousin Carly. It doesn't really matter but it was fun. Ingrid entered a booty shaking concert and was SO close to winning but got claustrophobic and had to get out of there! It was fun to watch her shake it and almost win the $25 prize. Yes there was a money prize but us Utahans are cheap ok?


I called the McCracken family and got 4 tickets to BASH(Big Awesome Show)<---This is edited ok? My brother Jacob calls me for 2 more for him and his really good friend, REALLY really good friend. After a long discussion about how he is a baby and needs to call himself I finally agree, being the kind, loving sister that I am. I really didn't want to call and ask for anymore since they are always so nice and invite me to dinner or to come over for a movie and I only call them when I want tickets. I called them anyway and asked for 2 more tickets and 2 tickets to the Vegas show The Used was playing at for the next day.(Also for Jacob) I tell Jacob all he has to do is call and confirm with them that they have the tickets. He refused. Then he tells me that he wasn't going anymore and that I needed to give them away. I guess this part isn't really relevant I just want Jacob to know that it was a babyish thing to do. So Ed McCracken called me the day before the concert to let me know that it is all set and that I have 6 tickets at will call with my name on them. At this point I am only needing 3. I called EVERYONE trying to find replacements and I got alot of them. They just all cancelled the night before or day of. So Ingrid, Dylan and I went by ourselves and still had a good time. We had great backstage tickets, that we later found out could be used for dinner and going back to the bands rooms to hang out with them. We were a little mad that noone told us but oh well we still had a good time.

I ran into Ed and Kenna McCracken and their kids. Bert's personal assistant had saved them a whole section next to the stage. They walked over to their reserved spot and Ingrid and I waited on the other side. One of Bert's sisters was kind enought o say, "Audrey! They saved us a spot over here by the stage. Come with us!" We were pleased. We walked over there and people were chanting Bert's name and pushing toward the stage. Rachel, his youngest sister was like, "Come up here you are family." and then mouthed for me to just push them out of the way. Also they were all very cluastrophobic and were being pushed up against the stage. She told me she wanted them to back up but was too wussy! So I politely said, "This area is for family only can you back up please?" They were so nice back like if they are nice to Bert's family that they will meet him or something. They were like"I was pushed up here. We are so sorry. We know this is for family only. We are really sorry." I was mad they lied to my face telling me they were shoved up there when I know for a fact they weren't. One of them was squeezing through everyone! Anyway we had cool spots.




Bert's parents were rocking out to it. And Kenna was plugging her ears because we were right next to the speaker. Ed text me and asked me if my parents would ever sit through a concert like this and I dont remember my exact words but something like, No way in HECK!<---- that edit is for you grandma. He is a good performer and we had a good time. Since I dont have a digital camera I will have to wait to put pictures from the concert up here until the rest of my film is done. Then wait for it to get developed. It is a lengthy process.

I think that about sums it up. I like you guys and am happy that those who participated in my quizzes did. Thank you(well the ones who know me, the other ones who failed.... no thank you.)

Oh and congratulations to Heidi, Johanne and Sarah for the decision to get baptized!

I am strong!

For those of you that keep asking me to post (even though I made no previous promise or commitment to write in it once a week) you are going to be very sorry after reading this because this last couple weeks have been very uneventful.

First of all, I have been working on this collections and court training packet at work and finally finished it after a couple weeks of working on it. The corporate manager Linda, CEO Ann, and Ann's daughter Eliza(the accountant) LOVED it! Eliza said she is so OCD about things and usually goes in and changes things to the way she likes them but she said she wouldn't change a thing. Then a couple days later they brought a cute little victoria secret purse filled with lotion, spray and body wash. I also received a card that had 2 movie tickets in it and it said something along the lines of, You are a goddess! Thank you for all your hard work... You are the best employee we have and you look extremely attractive today. Something like that.

I was really bored the other night and Ingrid took some pictures of me flexing and blowing a kiss...

We have a cleaning check tomorrow morning which means I have to clean tonight..And I am pretty sure that I haven't done laundry since last time I posted so I am going to be busy with that.

I really love Prison Break! I am sure Zach will verify what a good show it is for those of you who haven't seen it. And also, for those of you who haven't seen it... What the H-E-C-K were you thinking not watching it? There are really hot guys in it! Oh and a good story line.

I have The Office premiere taped at my house for me to watch tonight. That should be exciting. When I asked my roommate to tape it for me.. I was a little embarrassed to ask her and felt like I had to explain to her what a VCR was and what the little red circle button was for. I just miss having DVR. I feel like a freak! I can't believe I even had a blank VHS tape!

Ingrid and I went to Studio 600 last night. It is a club for people 18 and older. There are country nights, salsa/latino, and the one we went to is obviously the hip hop one! It was alot of fun. There were several circles made out of people, and random people just jump in and dance for a minute. Well, I kept pushing Ingrid in there to show off her mad skills. When the break dancers started jumping in, Ingrid and I came up with a genius plan to go in the middle of the circle with her back on the floor and I would spin her legs around in a circle. It looked kind of like break dancing I suppose. This Jamaican guy was teaching Ingrid a new dance move and laughing at her because it wasn't right or something. I personally didn't think it was a cool dance anyway. Then he wouldn't stop talking to us which wouldn't be that bad if I could understand him! Or if his breath wasn't stank! You know what I mean mon? The sucky part of the night was that right in the middle of this really awesome dance move I made up(it probably is less awesome to some) I thought of a commercial that went a little something like this... "Gotta go gotta go gotta go right now? Are you getting diarreha at all the wrong times?...." It sucked so bad! I had to visit the ladies room a quantity of times that night.

That is about it.

Busy Gal

Apparently I suck at keeping my blog up to date. I am going to have to apologize for having a job and not having a computer at my house. I cant believe myself! Anyway... I'll start with my trip to Georgia.

The fun started when I was on my way to Atlanta when the Atlanta airport was shut down due to weather. The captain informed us that we were going to circle above the airport in hopes that it would open before we ran out of gas. The first thing that crossed my mind was, "Why are we circling above the airport that was shut down for bad weather? Don't you think they shut it down because of the weather ABOVE it??" Then we had to go to Charlotte, North Carolina to refuel and we were there about an hour. I thought Shelby was going to have to wait for me FOREVER because it is a 2 hour drive from her house to come pick me up so its not like she could just leave and come back. Turns out she got a flat tire and it took her an hour to change it in the pouring rain! We finally arrived(we meaning all the nice people I made friends with in Charlotte, NC and one mean annoying chinese guy) and it took about an hour for our bags to show up. But i was pleasantly greeted by Shelby running at me with CHINESE FOOD! Good thing because I was starving! We were on our way! The next night I had dinner at Fatz Cafe, where I used to work, with Jessica and her friends. I kind of lost interest sitting next to a few of them because they were all single mom's talking about their kids while they were away from them for a change! I don't understand it! Talk about inappropriate things or things you can't do or say around your kids! Something besides your kids! LISTEN LADIES... I DONT HAVE ANY MMMK? But they were very nice. Shelby was our server and she gave me free soup!

The next few days I just hung out with some friends of mine there. I went to the pizza joint and they have BIG slices of pizza for like a dollar! Kind of like costco pizza. It was delicious! I also went back to Fatz to see some old friends and got a few free meals that my old manager comped for me. They sure do miss me.

I had fun at Jessica's house the few days I went over there. I really missed her and her boys and was SO happy when Broderick ran at me full of joy to be able to see "owdge" again! I love playing games with him and blocks. He really likes playing with rocks too. Which is fun I guess. I taught him how to pick the rocks up with tongs and he did that for like an hour and a half. That was before his enima. You'll see a picture of him with a red sucker after his enima. I also put Bridger's shirt tied up like we used to do as kids. He looked like a fox!

I was on my way back to the airport on Saturday when I missed my flight and it cost ALOT of money to move my flight to the next day so I was pretty stressed out after that. So that night, my friends Shelby, Joe and I went to Adventure land to ride the go carts. We ran into Jess and Adam there! They were watching the dance dance revolution kids go crazy! They act like it is a life or death situation. They are serious about that game. We rode the go carts and I obviously won the race! Then we went to go get some ice cream and I went home the next day. I didn't arrive until like 2:30 am on that Sunday night/ Monday morning so my attractive, kind cousin Ingrid came and got me. Thank goodness I had that Monday off at work or I would be dead!

I have been catching up on all the Arrested Development seasons. I love them! They are really funny! I just need to watch the 3rd season and I'll be done. I sadly heard the 3rd season is only half a season because the show got cancelled! I cant imagine why... it is amazing!

On Saturday, Ingrid dyed my hair dark. I like it. It brings out my green eyes and matches my eyebrow color. That is always good when that happens.

On Sunday it was Dylan Mundy's 16th Birthday so me and Tyler carpooled over to his parent's house for dinner. We had delicious chicken and broccoli casserole with homemade rolls and salad. Then Tyler, Ingrid and I took some pictures together. Me and Tyler then played chess where he schooled me! And he wasn't even that good! He just happened to be better than me.

I hope I added enough pictures for Zach. I hope you all enjoyed. I love you all.

Kissing Cousins

First of all, alot of people are wondering who JP is who commented on my blogs. It was Joshua Michael Parry. I am glad I cleared that up for you.

Also, Grandma told me to watch my language and the only thing I can think of is when I wrote He** which obviously mean Heck. Silly Grandma. Swearing is for kids.

So yesterday afternoon I went to the Mundy family's house for dinner. It was delicious! Then Tyler, Ingrid and I left to go visit the McCrackens. It wasn't as akward as I thought it would be the whole time! I liked hearing about when mom and dad were first married. For example, Ed McCracken gets tickets to the BYU games every year and they invited mom and dad to go. Well to make his extremely long story short, BYU lost and he was NOT happy. So dad and Kenna fought over who was going to sit next to Ed in the front seat because they both knew better that to sit next to angry Ed. I thought it was pretty amusing. It was cool when they brought all of Robert's (they call him Rob but the US calls him Bert so I was confused as to what I should write) gold records up to show us. I have never seen real gold record before.

We left and headed to Aunt Deann's and Uncle Kent's house. I had previously told Tyler that I was going to hook him up with Melissa. Now for those of you who do not know the relation between all of us, Tyler and Ingrid are my mom's sister's kids. Melissa is my dad's brother's kid. So no relation. We got there and Melissa looked so attractive which was good for Tyler. We started the night with banana splits and a milkshake for me. They were DELICIOUS! I love ice cream. All of Kent and Deann's kids were ther except Melanie who is on a mission. We got into the discussion on how we make milkshakes. We all make them the Parry way which is puttingg ice cream and milk in a cup... take a knife and chop away at it making the perfect amount of chunky and the perfect amount of creamy. Then we made fun of people who make milkshakes in blenders. Shmucks! Then we got the game of pit out and started playing. It wasn't very long until we put that away and started playing apples to apples. This is where the flirting began! Tyler scooted up close to Melissa, like some kind of trained professional! He is a sly dog! then they started whispering and laughing. That's when the cheating started... Melissa reached her arm around him and dropped a card in his lap, although this was a cute picture... The were not subtle about it and they were trading cards. We played for awhile and they really hit it off. we had family prayer and then left. Tyler mentioned to me on the way home that if their kids turn out retarded then he is coming after me. I had to remind him they are not blood cousins. I think this will be a fun and interesting set up.

I am getting two new roommates today. They came over on Saturday with a few of their things and just to get a few decorating ideas. They were planning on getting couch covers and rugs and whatever else an apartment needs. Amelia and I don't care what they do as long as they know we are not contributing a dime. They started looking around and they saw Amelia's Van Gogh painting that we love right where it is. One of the girls came up to me and said, "ummm, does this usually stay here? because we have pictures of Jesus to hang" What is she trying to say... we like van gogh better than Jesus? Even though we have pictures of Jesus everywhere. Of course my first thought was, No we actually take it down periodically or we just move it across the wall every week and then back. But I didn't want to have one of these roommate wars so I just nicely said, "Yes that usually stays there. We are pretty particular about our pictures. We don't care what you guys do or hang as long as our stuff isnt moved." She seemed pretty annoyed but listen here honey, we were here first and you are ugly! Then she wanted to put strips of carpet, that have been torn out of her aunt's house, on our living room floor. I dont know about these to characters. So I have to go home and make sure all our crap is in the same place. I don't think they are allowed to move in until the 1st but I guess when they go to get their keys then the manager can tell them!

I know this is titled Kissing Cousins but no cousin have kissed at all. Or non-cousins for that matter. I just thought it would grab the attention of the readers. Did it work?

Get the hint!

Hello! It has been a little over a week since I last posted because I have been really busy!

First, I went to vegas to visit my family(as most of you already know). Michael did the sacrament blessing for the first time ever! You might think that he would be the one that messed up since it was his first time but you are dead wrong! The man who is supposed to have set an example for him(his own father) is the one who stumbled on his words a bit. But they all did a wonderful job and all 4 of them looked so handsome in their matching ties!

It was really fun to see all my nephews and my niece again. Brody loves me the best! It is so fun to see how each of them are growing up and the new words Brody and Cadence knew!

We all had a good time in California at the beach and at disneyland and since the majority of you read Zach's blog then I wont go into detail. Being repetative is just annoying. Being repetative is just annoying.

I went to Idaho this last weekend for Grandma's 80th birthday party. It was really fun to see all of the extended family again. Well not all of them. Maybe 8% of them. We all sat in Uncle Bert and Aunt Lova's living room sharing memories we had of Grandma. Uncle Jay went on to tell a memory, that I wont repeat because I might lose some readers, and in it there was a man that said, "how ya doin' boys?" in a very annoying voice. Alan and Taylor thought it was HILARIOUS! They started practicing that same phrase in that same voice over and over again. Soon they started talking like that all the time. By the 3rd day at Grandma's house I wanted to stick my fork right in my neck! Uncle Jay went over to Grandpa and jokingly said, "Now that the boys know how to say that you will be enjoying it even when I am gone!" While gripping my fork tight I said with a sarcastic voice and a smile, "I never enjoyed it." Then I fake laughed. It was said jokingly but I meant it 100%. Grandpa turned to me and said,"it is pretty irritating isn't it?" It was just really annoying ok?

On the drive home from Idaho, Amelia and I were going INSANE from being in a car for the amount of time that we were, that we started singing everything we were thinking. Which made an awesome song for when I had to pee. Then we were making every Newsies song we heard into a rap, adding Zs to words. We spit all over ourselves when we were beatboxing! It was ridiculous! We need to practice, Fo shizzle my nizzle!

We made it home just in time to go pee and get to ward prayer. Our ward had split so we didn't know anyone! There weren't really any hot guys and on top of everything else they started 15 minutes late so we were forced to mingle. The old wards were dividing on different sides like we were gangs wanting to kill eachother. This one guy in our ward offered to help us unpack our car. He was weird and we didn't want him near us. He kept talking to us. We took this guy named Justin home since he lives in the building right next to ours and he helped us unpack. What a nice boy! The weird guy came over and just stood at the front door since we didn't invite him in. He finally said,"Should I come in or stay out or what?" Amelia replyed,"Whatever you want." He stayed for an hour even after we had said we were going to bed within the next 15 minutes. Then Jacob waslked in and cramped this guy's style. Amelia and I had washed our face, put our pajamas on and brushed our teeth and he still didn't get the hint! We were tired and I wanted to talk to Jacob about what he did this weekend(you're welcome Jacob). Jacob went to go make a root beer float and gave me a look like "get him the HE** out of here. I read the look like "come here so I can tell you something" so I went in the kitchen and right when I did, this guy asked Amelia out! That is the second time in a month she has been asked out by freaks in front of me in her pajamas! He finally left! She was pretty upset but I looked at it as if she had just taken one for the team. Thank you Amaulia!

That is it for me!

Sweet dreams indeed!

Hello all. Welcome to my new blog. I thought that if everyone found Zach's life interesting enough than you will be very easy to please. (just kidding Zach you are definitely WAY more interesting than me.) I thought it would be fun for everyone I dont get to talk to that much to know what goes on in my life day after day.

For those of you that dont know I work as the store manager of a loan company. I just got a raise and my boss just told me she is working on getting me another one! I will be rich! I enjoy my job most of the time. I have wanted to be a detective since I was very young and I get to do alot of detective work trying to hunt people down that owe us money. I do alot of collections at my job.

Just this last monday, I had to give a lesson in Family Home Evening for my ward! I am a FHE group leader. As many of you know(because I called and asked you to give the lesson) I was pretty nervous. It doesn't make me nervous to speak in front of people but it does make me nervous to teach people! Especially things that they probably know more about than me! And to make things worse... I had a dream about this boy in my ward the night before that is quite attractive and he showed up in the middle of my lesson. So I got really distracted and my mind was not thinking about forgiveness anymore, it all the sudden switched to my dream. It was kind of embarassing to stumble on a couple words trying not to think about the dream I had the night before. To spice it up a bit, I was wearing a black shirt that has an x-ray on the front and a heart on it. It kind of looks like one of those halloween costumes but cuter, and I made a joke about forgiveness making you happier inside while I was pointing to my t-shirt and they seemed to enjoy it. So even though I was nervous, it went pretty well.

At church on Sunday we found out our ward is splitting. I hope that there are nice people in the ward or at least attractive mean people. Either one would be fine. I hope we have a nice bishop too. I was gone grocery shopping at Macey's last night because they had a sale 11 items for $10, and any of you who has been a poor single person knew I had to jump at the oppurtunity, and the bishop, relief society president and elders quorum president all stopped by my apartment to meet us and Amelia said they were really nice. I just hope that they continue to act that way.

Me and my cousin Ingrid have been hanging out alot. We have alot of fun together. It is nice to have a cousin my age around to do silly things with. We are going to get dressed in 80's clothes and go skating and go to the nickel arcade to play dance dance revolution. We went to DI with my home teachers and tried on a hideous wedding dress, that was actually quite slimming on her, and another little girls dress with gold cowgirl boots. We looked hot!

Until next time. I hope my post was everything you expected it to be and more. I love you all!
