Thanksgiving and Glenn Beck

Well it has been quite a while since the last time i have posted but i feel a small obligation to do this.

Thanksgiving went pretty well for us. We went and saw Kathryn's family for the holiday. Nothing to exciting happened but we did have fun with the bingo game. I feel it was a success since we didn't come home with anything that we took! so woo hoo.

On Tuesday we went down to Idaho Falls to see Glenn Beck and have him sign my copy of the Christmas Sweater. If you haven't read his book i highly suggest you do. 

Anyway we got there about a half hour early and after about an hour and a half wait i got my book signed. The only complaint that i have is that I only got like 3 seconds to talk to him. But from those few seconds of looking into his eyes i could tell that he is a changed man. He has that look that he really cares.

School Registration

Well the time has come and gone for all BYU-I students to register for the next semester. Lucky little Kathryn got all of her classes signed up for and I think she is taking something like 15 credits. I don't know for sure but she will be busy.
As for me, the school took their sweet time in getting some of my credits transferred so i am waiting on one of my teachers to add me. I must be crazy because i will be taking 17.5 credits when it is all said and done.

We also had some friends over last night and they brought up a very interesting subject. They wondered if we are getting baby hungry living here in the berg and being in wards where there are tons of cute little babies. Kathryn looked at them and told them that she would love to have one right now but doesn't know how we could take care of it. I told them a resolute NO! It is really funny because if you had asked us about a month ago I would have said yes and Kathryn would have told you NO!
So anyway all is quiet here in Rexburg and i don't think that will change anytime soon.

Happy Election day!

So I have a more gloomy outlook to this election then the title implies. I actually think that this election will lead to an even worse presidential term then any in the past. I won't say whom I voted for but I will say that I didn't vote for Obama or McCain. I think both of them are idiots and they will lead this country into the very jaws of hell before they get our of office.

Having said that it does make me feel kinda good to say that i stated my opinion for this election. I only really did it so that when the next president does something stupid i can gripe all i want because i didn't vote for him.

I also have serious doubts that IF McCain wins he would stay alive for very long. What a joke this election is.

The ballot for idaho was very sad for me. I am not sure if it is true state wide but it seems like locally no one wants to run for any office. Almost every local office had only one person to vote for. There is no desire to run for any office in this state. So very sad.

So anyway that is my rant for this most very special election day!

To all citizens of the United States of America: Keep the dream alive. Don't let anyone over tax you just because of your good business practices!

My crazy pumpkin

So this year hasn't exactly be the biggest halloween bash ever. This town is full of mostly fresh out of high school kids who only want to flirt or couples with kids. So that really narrows the field on what we can go do. I also have to work today so getting ready for any kind of halloween party is really pointless.

I did manage to carve a pumpkin. That is about as festive as i am going to get this year but it should give everyone a nice laugh. I saw this kind of pumpkin on TV and thought i would have to try it. It really isn't that hard to make so enjoy!

The horror that is this election!

So i am actually going to be home for this election so i feel like i can accurately cast my vote. Last time i was on my mission in Florida. All i ever hear was how Bush would run this country into the ground and what not. Well I guess not much has changed in the past four years. I don't think either of these two candidates could run the country very well.

I was watching the debates a few nights ago and i kept wanted to shout at the TV and tell these two that they are idiots and they aren't really focused on what we as a country want but what they can do to line their pockets with a little more green! It truthfully disgusts me.

I fear that no matter what happens this year we are in for a horrible term. 

Obama has no grasp on how to truly run the country or what he even really wants to do. All I know is that he socializes with former terrorists and bad mouthers of this country. How can i take a man who claims to love this country with associates like that. Don't even get me started on how horrible his health care plan is, or how he has changed sides on EVERY issue presented to him.

McCain is an old man who i feel has lost touch with the real American; a.k.a. Joe the Plumbers! He thinks that by saying i support you and encourage you Joe is going to win him the election. The man can't run a computer or remember how many houses he has. What if he forgets his foreign policy? I mean the man was a POW. What if he has a flashback and decides to nuke everyone that ever wronged us? What i great president he will be. He has also changed position on everything. Why was it that 6 months ago he has one position and then now he is saying something different. I'll tell you why, he wants to be in the white house. Great reason to change our position!

Personally I fell that the president should be an appointed position. I don't remember reading about George Washington's political platform. He was appointed by the voice of the people. Right now we have idiots voting idiots into office. In the bible it says that by their fruits ye shall know them. I haven't seen good fruits from either of these two bone heads! All i see are money hungry senators looking for a way to get a life time pension for screwing over millions of people. If they really cared we would have paid off the national debt as quickly as we could. Instead they are spending millions on new furniture, subsidizing a restaurant that looses the American people millions a year so they won't have to go across the street to get lunch. They also wouldn't put in all the ear marks, or pay increases. 

Getting back to the point i was trying to make; the president needs to be appointed by the voice of the people. I mean if it would make that much of a difference lets do it like freaking American idol. If we glamorize it maybe more people will vote and we could have a GOOD president for once in my lifetime! We should search all over America for great people who do regular things put them on stage and ask them the political questions. They will hopefully give better answers, or just an answer, and then we can decide from there. Did McCain or Obama ever really answer any question during the debates? My answer to you is no; no they didn't.

Anyway that is my little raid on how i feel about the nightmare that is this election. To be honest i don't plan to vote for either of them. I might just vote for Joe the Plumber. He seems to understand what is going on better then Obama or McCain combined!

FINALLY!

Well i know it has been a while but not much has really happened since last time. The only big news is that Katy got a job at the school! She is a dishwasher. Not the most glamorous but she likes it.

Today i woke up to hale! I can't believe it! i haven't seen hale in like forever! I was so excited! But is does mean that winter is almost here. Right now it looks like it is going to rain.

Oh other big news is that i got a job making a video for a wedding reception. I like doing stuff like that and i hope that it actually turns into a full time real job for me!

Other then that there hasn't been much that has gone on. So i guess that is all that i will write for now!

TODDLES!

The crazyness of Rexburg

Well we have been in rexburg for a few weeks now and i think both of us are starting to really like it here. Katy is having fun at school, i am trying to not be to distracting. i am doing well at work, nothing to special though.
I must say that i am very proud of Katy and all the work she is putting into school. Her accounting classes seem to take alot of time and they stress her out. So far she is ahead of the schedual and i hope that she stays that way.
I am getting a little anxious to get started with school. I want to be done and in the real world with areal job but i know that will come soon enough.
We also got a couple of new computers. I think Katy really likes having her own computer to work on instead of sharing with me.
So anyway that is about all that is going on in our lives.
