Subtle Hints

So after a few little tiny itty bitty hints from my mom and a few others, I have decided that maybe this whole blog thing isn't just a one time deal. I have thought long and hard about what my readers may want. And then like a lightening bolt, it hit me. They might like it if i updated this at least once. I mean, as entertaining as reading the same first post over and over again, and staring at vomit inducing 70's orange patterns is, they might like another dip into my ever happinin' life and charming witty exchanges. Some might feel to classify my dialog as obnoxious, but me and my family choose to call it witty banter. But seeing as all that Brad and I are doing right now is homework, and lots of it, I decided rather than just taking pictures of the mess of books that is taking over our living room, I might take you all for a ride to the past. Now a quick warning to those chronological junkies. Brad is in class and I don't know how to get pictures from his camera to my computer. So all I have to work with is the pictures already on my computer. What this means is that they will be out of order and possibly not very good pictures. I was given a camera from a good friend, and, while this is better than nothing, you might get the same effect from stick figure drawings. But forge on we must. I will also try really hard to remember to take pictures whenever Brad and I are not stuck with our noses in books or sleeping. Although, it might be fun to take pictures of Brad while he is sleeping, but since I committed my eternity to him, I think I should probably be nice.



So one day, before Brad and I got married, We decided that we really needed to spend some time together, working out the details of our relationship and our future life together, and the only time that would work was during all of our classes. Sorry mom, please don't read on. So we skipped all of our classes and went out to breakfast in Idaho Falls and then found a really neat Haloween store that even had a section just for adults. And, seeing as both of us are over 18, we wandered strait there. Don't worry, there was nothing bad, just costumes sized for adults.

Please note blade size difference. I win.

And then we were happy.

There comes a time.

You know that magical moment that all girls dream of? You know, after the wedding bells have rung, the night of twinkling lights and congratulations, after that first dance when you stair up into your sweethearts eyes and realize that you really found, "the one" and you couldn't be happier? That magical moment you have been waiting for when you turn to your best friend in the world, the man of your dreams, and you say, "It's time. It is time to settle down and start our life. It's time to start our blog."

So....here I am. Giving in to pure instinct. I wasn't too keen on the idea of an all obsessing and time consuming blog but then it hit me. I could spend countless hours on Facebook, reading about how other people are doing, looking at their pictures and hoping that all goes well in their lives, OR I could be spending all of my time talking about MY life and posting pictures about ME. What could be better than an avenue to be able to talk about nothing but my life? But since I am not the self-centered, egotistical, narcissistic type, I will talk about Brad too. I guess. If I must.

I guess the biggest thing right now I have on my mind is this; my faithful readers. Now, to be honest, I don't know who all will be reading this. The only person I can really count on to even want to read about my life is my mom. So because of her I have succumbed to the internal instinct of blogging. But then it hit me. Not only do I think she will be the only one to read this, but my sister megan is about to have a baby and once that happens, I can't expect my one and only faithful fan to stick around. So really this is poor timing on my part. Maybe if I had only waited till the little bundle had come, the baby would be old news and my blog would be the big thing. Now I am going to have to compete for attention from an infant. I mean, I am pretty fascinating but for some reason, I just don't think I can compete with a new grandchild....... Never mind. It must just have been the whispering of my critics. I'm back on track and know that no one will take my loving fans from me.

Anyway, enough for now. I guess when I finally have a breather from my homework I can think about adding more stuff about me. Oh and Brad. He is doing great too. I might even add some pictures. But as for right now, all you faithful fans out there in cyberspace will have to wait for more of my witty banter.
