My war with the EVIL Spyware!!

It's almost over!! After a fierce battle with the nasty computer pop-ups it is finally coming to an end. For the last few days my computer has been infested with spyware. There has been so much of that my computer was hardly functional. It has been sooo slow!! I couldn't even get on the internet to get a spyware remover. Finally, last night, after many prayers to the computer Gods, I got on to the internet long enough to get the remover! I installed and have run fours scans since. It found over 750 spyware programs!!! Can I just say I was ready to chuck my computer over the balcony!

I am still having problems with pop-ups, but not quite as bad. Although when they do come, they seem to all come at once...Like right now!!! GRRRR!!!! I swear...I'm going to pull my hair out!!! Well, the pop-ups are winning for a moment so I will keep this short. I hope everyone has fun stuff planned this weekend...I know I don't. So stay safe and wish me luck in this spyware nightmare...Hey look! I'm a poet and I didn't even know it!! ;)

The Greatest Snowball Fight EVER!!!

I know today is Sunday and we are supposed to be prayerful and stuff like that but my roommates and I sort of forgot that for a moment today. We (DeAndra, Anissa, and I) were coming out of the lounge with one of our FHE brothers, Casey, and his friend, Scotty, when DeAndra decided it would be fun to start a snowball fight in the parking lot. So we all started throwing snowballs at each other, it was fun.

Then Scotty got DeAndra with a really good hit and then ran off. She then proceeded to run after him. She tackled him and they got into a huge snowball/tackle fight. Basically this consisted of her repeatedly trying to knock him down...Which she actually succeeded at a few times. So there we were throwing snowballs and watching DeAndra tackle Scotty, when all of a sudden a snowball comes flying out of nowhere!!!

We turned to the direction of the snowball and see three guys from our church ward across the street. So we start throwing snowballs across the street at each other. Then DeAndra whispers something to me and Anissa: "Let's tackle them!" I don't know these guys so I decline, respectfully. Her and Anissa run across the street, but halfway there Anissa's pants start to, well, come down, and in the end DeAndra is the only one who tackles anyone.

When I say tackle I mean, attempt to tackle. She ran at them, tried to tackle one of the guys, and ended up getting tackled herself. For the next fifteen minutes or so DeAndra tried to tackle these guys, and failed every time. We helped of course...Everything DeAndra would go in for the tackle we would throw snowballs. DeAndra was soaked by the end of it. She kept getting dumped into snow drifts. It was a lot of fun...There is nothing better than bonding over a snowball fight. Maybe we will end up doing it again sometime...

Enjoy the quiet while it lasts...

So my roommates are out of town for the weekend, well most of them are anyways. Mels went to Salt Lake, Audra and Mardi went to Montana; so it is just Anissa, DeAndra, and I. And now you know all the names of my roommates...Don't you feel lucky? Tonight the three of us went to see 'Comic Frenzy.' This is kind of like 'Who's line is it anyway?' It was funny...Well parts of it, not so much...But whatever, we still had fun.

Before the show we went out to eat at Hogi Yogi. I will now take a moment to pay special tribute to "the corner." I live right next to "the corner" and I know my parents will be so happy that I mentioned it. For those who are unaware of it's history, I shall enlighten you. "The Corner" is where my parents first met. My mom was walking home with groceries and my dad offered her a ride home, the rest is history. It's funny, I have heard the story of "the corner" a million and a half times, but I have never heard about how my dad proposed to my mom...Curious...

So yeah...We ate at Hogi Yogi and then we went to the show, and then we went to Dairy Queen for ice cream. Following all this excitement we went and rented movies. I had a very interesting conversation with an employee there. His name was Noah and when he found out that I used to work for Hollywood Video he began quizzing me on my knowledge. I still got it! I passed the test with flying colors...And no matter what DeAndra says, I was NOT flirting...I was conversing.

So now I am here, writing in my blog at two in the morning...Don't worry mom, I'm about to go to bed. Tomorrow is a new day, and who knows what that day will bring. So have a good night everyone...Maybe I will post again in the morning...Who am I kidding? I'll try to post again by Monday!

Mourning the loss of a Legend

I thought I would take a moment to mourn the loss of one of the greater writers of our time. Arthur Miller died earlier this week at the age of 89. This great man wrote such classics as "The Crucible," and "Death of a Salesman." He truly was a great man and an even greater writer. So here's to you Arthur Miller, thanks for making English class just a little harder. Have a great weekend everyone; and to Arthur Miller's friends and family, I wish you the best.

OWWWW!!!!

Would you like me to explain the title. Fine, I will. So my roommates are pretty into tanning, using tanning beds. They are not obsessed or anything so don't worry. They just like to go about once a week. I've gone twice. Thursday was my second time. And let me tell you...I got burned. It hurts! When I got out of the bed I didn't think I had burned but by nightfall I was nice and red. It is not all over or anything. Mainly on my back and stomach. But it still hurts!

So Monday is National Single Awareness Day...a.k.a. Valentine's Day. Who invented such a stupid day? I blame Cupid! Oh! By the way, in case you didn't notice, I have a new way for you to post comments! A special thanks to luminarumbra for helping me out with this one! So please, comment away!!! OK...So I have homework to do...Have a great day everyone!!

Comment Disabled! Lose 500 points! Do not pass go!

Yeah so, comments were *disabled* on your last post Stephanie, so I'm forced to create a brand new BLOG just to write something! Which I can do now, since I've joined your board. I think all this power is going to my head! Bwwaaa ha ha ha! Anyway, so a hose attachment huh? That sounds like either an oliphant or a vaccum cleaner. I vote for oliphant! Hope the paper went well, darlin. Ciao!

And I'm Back On!!!

YEAH!!! The internet has been running for about a week now!! I am so happy I could jump! But I won't because I would probably get weird looks from my roommates. So instead I will shout for joy inside my head...Which probably makes me sound crazy...But what the heck!

So I ran into someone I knew a couple years ago yesterday. Her name is Becca. She married this guy I used to know named Seth. We reminisced for awhile about people we knew...It turns out that most of the people I knew are married now...Go figure. Becca wanted to have a big potluck for all those who were up here in the summer of 2002. Oh great...A party where I am one of, like, three single people. Oh well, we will see what happens.

today's post might be a little shorter than usual, as I have a huge paper to write tonight. So I should probably get started on that...I don't want to though. I have to write a paper that describes on object that I have never seen before. I think it some kind of hose attachment though. So basically I will BS my way through it and hope I do it right.

So I guess that's it for now. I hate homework and I miss California, but I dare say I will live. I do love my roommates and everything...School just sucks. But life goes on and before I know it the semester will be over. So, here's till then. Have fun everybody!!!

Crap!!!!

Don't you love my title? I am just posting a brief note to inform you that my interent is down again so I have to sneak onto school computers to do my evil work. I will try to post as often as possible, but lets just hope that the internet gets fixed soon! Take care everyone!
