I'll just take my honda

So, the professors in my department have another hobby besides teaching . . . go figure! They LOVE (notice I wrote that in all caps) motorcycles. Actually, it's a borderline obsession. Whenever one gets a new bike, another just has to one-up him and buy a new one. Everyone has a motorcycle -- except for Dr. C, whose wife refuses his desires to fit in with the gang.

Today is a beautiful day in Provo -- probably the first time in a while that the professors have been able to ride their motorcycles to school. A couple of them we were walking down the hall on the way to lunch with their helmets on. Dr. C poked his head out of his office and said, "I guess I'll just follow you guys in my Honda!" with the most dejected look on his face. It was so pathetically hilarious that I just had to share -- and it is probably a 'you had to be there' moment too :) Sorry!

Problem Solved

A special thanks to my dear ex-roommate April for the AMAZING Harvard sweatshirt & to my dear current roommate Cody for the AMAZING matching pink moccasins.

Pink Moccasins and Random Pictures

This evening, Cody informed me that he was in a doting mood. He bought me these:

I have no idea what to wear them with . . . any suggestions would be welcome.

I also found these pictures on the camera. I made that amazing pizza over President's Day weekend. Sometimes I have time to cook :) Ha ha!

And this one is from a day when I left the house before Cody got up. When I came home, we were totally twinners. How precious!

Human Captial

Last night, Cody said 'human capital' while we were saying prayers. I started giggling -- irreverent, I know. But honestly, does he ever let school go? Hilarious!

Shopping Spree

Today I went to SLC with Cody -- he had a job interview at the Church Office Building. I decided to go shopping and spend the Pottery Barn gift card we got for our wedding. My jaw hit the floor when I walked in because I loved EVERYTHING there!! Check out their website and you will understand what I am talking about (www.potterybarn.com). The vase I bought is the one on the far right . . . love it!

B12 Shots & Black Shoes

Cody and I are watching Super Tuesday election coverage. One of the newscasters just said, "We'd better get our B12 shots!" The other newscaster stared her down with the most hilarious clueless look on his face. She finished by saying that they were going to be in for the long haul, so they needed their energy. Then I thought that it was really stupid that she had to explain her comment to her buddy -- I thought it was pretty clever.

Cody helped me realize that the only reason I know about B12 shots is because my sweet grandma has gotten them to boost her energy before . . . I guess that not everybody has a grandma as absolutely wonderful as mine. And brave too!

P.S. I love my grandma -- can you tell?

P.P.S. Cody is thinking about getting me these shoes for Valentine's. Any comments?

My Laptop is Famous

One of the girls I work with just emailed me a link to an event that the BYU Graduate Student Society (also known as my employer) hosted last Thursday. I was checking out the picture and noticed that my laptop is looking awfully lonely on the bottom table with the boy in the blue tie. How sad!

The link to the story is:

And yes, I am the one typing that transcript that is mentioned twice in the story. Sweet.
