LOVE OF MY LIFE!

    Rarely do I get this excited about a new purchase, but these are definately blog-worthy! VIBRAM FIVEFINGERS! There! I said it....I find myself grinning just thinking about them.
    Last Summer, I went on a ward couples trip (by myself) to Lake Powell for an amazing week on my bishops house boat. We went on a 6 hour hike through narrow canyons and after about 4 hours of climbing in my Chacos, I took them off and strapped them to my pack. Although, in the end my feet were two giant blisters- I had the funnest time running up rocks and climbing in my bare feet. I decided that I was going to invent a shoe that is designed just like a foot. I come to find that I am a few years behind and they have shoes called Vibram Fivefingers that are pretty much exactly what I had thought I invented. I have wanted them ever since and just recently decided that it has become more of a need than a want (my "needs" are just things I want reeeally bad). I pitched an idea to my husband Mike that I would ride my bike everywhere for 3 weeks and pay for the shoes with the gas money that I would've spent.........but It's been bad weather so I asked my awesome parents to pay half for my birthday...in July.
     For anyone debating whether or not to get them- they're the ultimate! I prefer the KSOs over a thicker sole, however, if you're using them for running, you'll want a bit more support.

Name Game

For those of you who don't know- I work at a pediatric dental office. Ever since working there, I have come to loathe and detest Thursdays.I used to work both mondays and thursdays but my boss has had something against me ever since I told her to stop sending porn to my phone.
Throughout my 9 hour work day, I find little things to keep me from losing it. My favorite distraction is to go through the hundreds of childrens names in our system and log the funniest ones into my day planner. I've made two categories: name originality and awkward spellings. Here are a few that I've found recently.....

Original names:
-Destrilee
-Shalyndria (sounds like a tranny stage name)
-Harley (dog name)
-Karyme (pronounced "crime"and her last name is angel....crime angel???)
-Valantyne
-Piper
-E.D (beside the name,its says "pronouced Eddie")
-Sweet
-Doranelly
-Shy
-Jestiny (I imagine this one being Gloria from the show Modern Family trying to say "Destiny")
-Princess (no joke! What....did her parents let her siblings name her?)
-Jayz (I called him to come back and said "Jays" and his mom came up and was all..."Its pronounced "Jay Z"! Yes, he was black.)

Odd spellings:
-Jhulien (julian)
-Aleksandr (alexander)
-Nikolaus (nichloas)
-Jescey (jessie)
-Jewlyien (julian)
-Kamrun (cameron)
-Kyol (kyle)

I have nothing against trying to be original, but I don't like having to sound out a common name or try not to laugh when I call "Jay Z" back to get his teeth cleaned...poor kid.

   So I really don't watch a ton of television, however, it really helps the time go by while I'm doing eyelashes to listen to a movie or tv show. (For those of you who dont know- I do eyelash extensions for a living which is basically just glueing on fake eyelashes to peoples natural eyelashes.) Anyway, I swear I must have watched every office episode at least 6 times by now, almost to the point where I can quote the whole show (I know, not something to brag about!) As it IS such a funny show, I thought Id share my favorite quotes...

Michael and Ryan concerning Michael hitting Meredith with his car:
Ryan: "Did this happen on company property?"
Michael Scott: "It was on company property WITH company property so....double jeopardy, we're fine!"
Ryan: "I don't think--I don't think you know how jeopardy works"
Michael Scott: "Oh, I'm sorry- What is: 'We're fine'?"

After Michael hit Meredith with his car:
Michael Scott: "Guess what?! I have flaws! What are they?...Oh, I donno, I sing in the shower? Sometimes I spend too much time volunteering. Ocasonally I'll hit someone with my car--so sue me! no, don't sue me. That is opposite of the point I am trying to make.

Michael Scott explaining Diwali:
"Tonight, one of our most ethnic co-workers, Kelly, has invited us all to a Diwali celebration put on by her community. What is Diwali, you may ask. Well, to have Kelly explain it,(starts doing a ditzy girl voice) ' well, it's, blah blah blah, it's so super, fun, and it's gonna be great!' Lot of gods with unpronouncable names, twenty minutes later, you find out that it is essentially a Hindu Halloween."

Michael Scott:
"that seeems awfully mean...but sometimes the ends justify the mean.

Michael Scott:
"Well apparently in the medicine community, negative means good. Which makes absolutely no sense. In the real world community, you- that would be chaos."

Michael Scott
“Yes, money has been a little tight lately. But, at the end of my life, when I’m sitting on my yacht, am I gonna be thinking about how much money I have? No. I’m going to be thinking about how many friends I have, and my children, and my comedy albums. I mean, I have a yacht, so I obviously did pretty well money-wise.”

As you can see, I am a huge Steve Carell fan.

Spring Has Sprung

         So given my new circumstances, I've found myself with a lot of extra time on my hands. Mike and I have moved into Mikes parents basement for the time being until we more to San Francisco in June, and all the Darais' have been sick for weeks! I'm barely recovering, but however, I did hit the gym for the first time in about 3 weeks where a man from Africa named Ellie aproached me and asked if I play a professional sport...can't say I've heard that one before. (For the record, I have nothing NEAR an athletic body.)     
       Mike and I have been babysitting my sister-in-laws puppy "Harlie" this week. She's a little maltese and soo freaking cute!! She was brought up by my 5 neices and nephews, and therefore will NOT eat her dog food, but will beg for anything I eat. I came home today to find my mango chapstick knawed through and eaten, sitting on her bed.
