Fluffiness

Bruce and I went for a walk today, and as we were walking, he saw some furry creatures and asked me if I thought they were cats or squirrels.

From my view, they looked to be cats, and he posited that they were squirrels.

So we stepped closer for a better look.

Turns out we were both wrong! Gophers! We found a frolicking colony of gophers! It kinda made my day.

Gophers...who knew?

Random Product Plug

Okay, so this is a bit random, but whatever...

I bought some sour cream for a recipe yesterday.  Nothing too outside the ordinary... except that I bought a different brand than I usually do, and holy hannah, was that a good choice.

I purchased a container of Tillamook Sour Cream, and let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen, it is divine. Hands down, the best sour cream I have ever had.

Which may sound weird, but I don't even care.

It's good enough to blog about (clearly).

Gettin' stuff done

I feel surprisingly accomplished today.

Probably because I left the house.  More than once.

Got a few errands done, even put makeup on to do them...that's something right there.

Running on Empty

I am rapidly running out of food items in my apartment.

This might be due to the fact that I haven't done any actual grocery shopping in about a month or so...but it could also be gremlins.

I've been slowly using up the items that I have on hand, and I am now to the point where I probably have to break down and go shopping (insert groan here...).

Fare Thee Well

I have finally passed my accounting final!

Third time was apparently the charm for this beast...seriously, I will not miss this class.

Unfortunately, I do still have one final task (project) to complete for my other accounting class...hopefully I can figure out how to do it (and do it right) by the end of the month.

I will not be sorry to bid these classes adieu at long last!

'Cuz that's not the least bit creepy...

It's no surprise that I have been exhausted lately (after all, I DO keep whining about it on this here blog...)

But it is a bit crazy to me just how quickly I can fall asleep these days.

I went over to Bruce's place after I got home from Utah today, and while we waited for the next session of General Conference to start, we put on an episode of "House".  And (according to Bruce), not 2 minutes went by before I was out like a light (I like to think that I was awake a bit longer than 2 minutes, but I digress...).  Apparently he had been talking to me, and he discovered I was asleep when I didn't respond to him.

The only downside to my sleeping is that I still get frequent nightmares.  I have had nightmares pretty regularly all of my life, some of them are recurring and I've had the same ones off and on since childhood, and others are just random, but most of them involve me trying to evade one or more individuals who are attempting to attack/kill me (pleasant, I know), and I have varying degrees of success.

Today's nightmare was no exception...much running, hiding, sleuthing and sneaking, but in the end, I couldn't get away.  I generally always wake up before I actually die in my dreams, but often not before a fatal blow is struck.  I think I have a seriously screwed up subconscious.

Les Miserables

Kelly and I are currently sitting at intermission at Hale Centre Theatre in Utah.

It is seriously the best performance of this show that I have seen...and I've seen it a fair few times.

Certain parts make my heart go pitter-pat.

Just sayin'
