[This blog is being used for venting purposes only today]
I had two boxes of contacts in my purse. I took the boxes out of my purse. I CAN'T REMEMBER WHERE I PUT THEM. I have worn my glasses the past two days.
Something amazing happened when I got married... suddenly, I can't remember where I put ANYTHING. I lose my keys at least once every day. Hopefully putting my closet [finally] together will help my mind feel less cluttered.

Tech Support
Fact: I pulled this off of a friend's blog, and I just had to paste it and share it on mine, given my recent upgrade...
Fact: I don't have a lot of experience with Husband 1.0, but I am already familiar with Grumpy Silence 2.5 [says Cam: "As a result of Nagging 5.3"]
Fact: I love Cam very much, and even he got a good kick out of this.
Dear Tech Support,
Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slow down in overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0. In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as
Romance 9.5 and
Personal Attention 6.5,
and then installed undesirable programs such as
NASCAR 6.0,
NFL 5.1 and
Golf Clubs 4.1.
Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. Please note that I have tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail. What can I do?
Signed, Desperate.
DEAR DESPERATE,
First, keep in mind,
Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while
Husband 1.0 is an operating system.
Please enter command: ithoughtyoulovedme.html and try to download Tears 6.2 and do not forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update.
If that application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.
However, remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5.
Whatever you do, DO NOT under any circumstances install Mother-In-Law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources..)
In addition, please do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend 5.0-program. These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband 1.0. In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance.
We recommend
Cooking 3.0 and
Hot Lingerie 7.7.
Good Luck Babe!

House Updates!
Yay we have internet, which is awesome and we no longer have to mooch off of our parents/the university's wireless to get things done. Next up... getting a dinette set and setting our living room and bedroom up. (Baby steps...)
The most awesome feature of our househould is the Spanish radio stations that are played all day in our front yard. :) Also, the construction workers that serenade us with their favorites that are currently playing as they take care of our landscaping. Last week Cam and I woke up to them working right outside of our bedroom window. This is one of those times that I wish I had pursued more Spanish in high school.
Last update- Cam and I had an adventure yesterday! As we returned home from church, we discovered that we had locked ourselves out of the household, and both keys were inside the house. Thankfully, because of Cam's mission training[?] he was able to get into our house with a credit card. I was thrilled we avoided calling a locksmith, but a little suspicious of his mad skills.

It's Official!
We were married on October 16, 2008 in the Logan LDS Temple. It was such a beautiful day, weather wise, and it was so great to have so many family members and friends make the trip. After the wedding, we had a luncheon at Hamilton's and then we were DONE. BONUS. Here are a few samples of some pre-wedding pictures, pictures of the wedding day to follow!

Sweet Hubby
Today was one of those days that all the, uh, "slime" hit the fan. I'll spare you the nasty details, but anyone and everyone who has ever balanced school, work and planning a wedding will understand. I'm so grateful for my wonderful fiancee who helps me remember and focus on the important things, like our marriage taking place in just a short week, and the fact that after FOUR YEARS we finally made it to this spot.
Nine days! :)

Completely Brilliant Plan
You know how board games can tend to become boring and blase' after time, and how the companies come up with different "versions" of the game to get them all interesting again? Like how they just came out with International Monopoly or The Simpson's Clue?
Well... I was playing The Game of Life with my future sis-in-law last night, and after feeling like complete losers for only getting one kid throughout the whole game, we decided that they should come up with an LDS version of The Game of Life.
This morning I'm feeling like that's a completely brilliant idea, and I'm half tempted to write Matel or Parkers Brothers or whoever the heck produces this game and tell them what a monopoly it would be to produce, "The Game of [Eternal] Life."
Now there would be a few variations in the game....
In the college section: 1-"Serve a mission-miss next two turns, but collect 2 Life tokens" 2-"Get married" 3-"Have first child" 4-"Dean's list" 5-"Participate in some reality tv show" (Shout out to David Archuletta and Benji) 6-"Move in with inlaws (lose next turn)" 7-"Twins!" 8-"Organize a medical mission" and 9-"Memorial Day- visit pioneering ancestor's graves"
In the career/family section: Every two squares would be a "Baby boy!" or "Baby girl!" tile and we'd finally find the "Buy A House" tile, 1-"Youngest person to rise so fast to the top" 2-"Flu season!" 3-"Conference tickets" 4-"Sunbeams teacher-lose next turn" 5-"Go back to school" 6-"Graduate medical school- on to residency! Pick new house" 7-"Finished residency! Found a job-pick new house" 8-"Donate your time serve in a medical mission" and then 9-"Family road trip back to Nauvoo and Palmyra!"
Then in the retiree/older person section: 1-"Serve a mission-lose next turn, collect one Life token" 2-"Participate in Mormon Tabernacle choir" 3-"Called to serve in Bishopric/Relief Society presidency" 4-"You're a grandparent 3 times in one year!" 5-"Called to be a General Authority" and the last square before retirement- 6-"Marry off last child"
I'm also debating whether it would be a "Life" token, or if they would be called "Blessing" tokens instead.
Also... whenever someone spins a ten each member would have to give a tenth of all of their money to tithing.
What do you think? This is all in good fun! I think it would be a hit!
