The Sherwoods

dog sitting

we are dog sitting for some friends while they are in utah for conference this weekend.

G is at priesthood session of conference so after having some girl time/wedding talk with Mal, Sophie and I went on a nice little walk.

i am going to be honest, having Sophie here has just made me want a dog 10xs more.

she is a Chihuahua and i usually dont like them because they look like little rats, or bats, or something.

and they are so yippy.

BUT this one is not!

its the weirdest thing. she doesnt make any noises. none.

though I do not want this dog, i do still want a dog reaaaaally bad.

~~(we have decided to wait until we move in August to get one.)~~

He said yes!

out of pure bordem during work the other day i was browsing smithtix.com to see who is playing shows in utah.
and then i saw that this guy:

The Tallest Man on Earth

(i can see my parents taking the name literally, no he is not the literal tallest man on earth mom and dad. )

He is playing at the Depot in SLC on May 31st.

i asked G if we could go as our birthday presents to ourselves and he said YESSSS!!!

I have been wanting to attend a Tallest Man on Earth show for a looong time.

and now i get to!

i am one happy girl.

also, this means we get to hang out in SLC for a weekend, and that is just as exciting.

i miss that city so much.

Guys.
its finals time.
i thought it wasn't have that big of an toll on me
until today.

1. i used the mens restroom at school and didn't even realize it until i was walking out.
2. i wore my shirt inside out ALL day and didn't notice until 4:00.

i will be one happy girl come thursday of next week.

oh allergies.

whelp.

its that time or year again.

allergy season is back.

and so are the watery red eyes and tears running down my checks.

uncontrollable snot.

sinus headaches

and

sneeze attack.

as nasty as all of this sounds,

i am very ok with it.

because that means its spring.

and the sun is shining.

i get to ride my bike

and hang out in the backyard with G in the sun and read books.

plus, its only April 3 and i already have a base tan on my legs.

holla!

Birthday.

My birthday is this month.
if we had lots of money, these are the things i would buy.
but since we dont, my only request is that everything i eat on the 25th is cake batter flavored.

1. Raw Turquoise necklace.
2. Natural Histories: Extraordinary Rare Book Selections from the American Museum of Natural History Library
3. Do the Brushstroke Dress
4. Lolli Peplum One-Piece Swimsuit
5. Artisan Crystal Copper Ring
6. Handwoven Turkish Kilim Rug
7. Colorblock ankle strap flatforms
8. Pug. from any where would be fine.
9. Tribal print top

the price is right.

on mondays and wednesdays i dont have to leave the house until ten.

on mondays G doesn't have to sleep all day because he didn't work the night before.

so we watch the price is right at 9.

and sometimes i get excited for the contestants when they get the price right and i scream real loud. (and G says, "I can't believe you screamed!" HELOOO the lady on the tv just won cool things by guessing a number!)

and sometimes i cry out of joy when the contestant wins their showcase.

but just sometimes.

one year.

one year ago today G and i sat on a couch in my apartment and watched East of Eden.
after the movie he said "we should date."
and i said ok.
and then he kissed me.
and my life changed.
forever.
