Blog?

So I kind of forgot I had a blog...I'm not kidding. Between work, socializing, studying, sleeping, going to the gym, visiting my sister and her kids and church, I've been pretty busy. I was reminded by the fact that I had a blog my looking through my "bookmarks" tab.

I need a wife, to blog for me (among other reasons). She would be much better at it than me, and frankly more interesting.

On another note, It dropped down into the 90s today after multiple days around 107. It was actually cloudy today on my way to work. I didn't have to wear my sunglasses.

The treat jar at work is my downfall. My desk is right near it (I actually have to walk by it to get to the printer). They have those really yummy Red Vines and Peppermint Patties.

I've started bringing lunches from home, cause frankly, $8 a day adds up. And it is much healthier to bring a lunch from home. Although I will still make the occasional trip to Macayo's.

Blog

So I haven't been blogging for the last little bit, nor have I been reading blogs. Mainly because I've started a new job and have been very busy. The earliest I've been getting home is around 7, but mainly I'm getting home around 8 or 9. Here's to starting as an accountant in the middle of busy season! When I get home I try to study for the CPA for a bit but even doing that has been hard.

One thing about Arizona though, the sun comes up so early here. Every morning I am awakened thinking it is around 10am because of the sun coming in my window. I roll over and my alarm clock says 5:30. Hopefully I'll get used to it and get some better sleep. It also gets dark really early here too, which is kind of annoying.

We have a 46" HDTV, I love that thing. Sports never looked so good!

It's cooled down this week, only a high of 99.

That's all for tonight.

Can you say upset?





In case you haven't heard. BYU upset No. 3 Oklahoma last night 14-13. The game wasn't pretty for either team. Both had fumbles and interceptions. Both teams had major injuries. Bradford for Oklahoma and BYU's No. 1 running back Harvey Unga (who only needs about 800 more rushing yards to become BYU all-time leading rusher) didn't play because of a hamstring injury.

But in the end it was BYU who showed that they wanted it more and showed that despite all of the BCS mumbo jumbo that little guys can play with the big guys and actually beat them.


Here some video of the game.

Goodbye

Well tomorrow morning I leave Utah and head for my new home in Arizona. Earlier in the summer I was slightly sad to be leaving Utah but the closer the move date has come, I have gotten more excited.

Excited to start a new chapter in my life, excited to actually get paid for working hard, excited to make new friends and excited to live close to my sister and her family.

My dad was talking to one of my former tax professors the other day and my dad told him that I can only come home for thanksgiving if I have a girl on my arm. My professor told my dad that if I don't have it wrapped up by Christmas he's going to pull my degree. Looks like I better get my act in gear.

Here's to the next stage of my life.
