What could be in the air? Oxygen? Pollen? Rain? Snow? How about....Love....maybe...possibly? Well it sure seems like it!!
Basically, everyone is getting married. It seems like it's the time of year, or THE year to do it. Who knows, maybe it's both. Maybe i should jump on the bandwagon...yeah right. I really don't have a problem with people getting married, but when it' SO many people that i know...it just kind of gets boring and old and annoying to hear about. Especially when they are quick marriages....even though my sister was in one of those until the guy basically didn't have the guts to go through with it and broke it off....but they are still dating. I dunno...i guess it's her life, but i think personally she needs to move on. But i support her either way, cuz i love her and i want her to be happy.
Just to name the ones off that i can think of:
Mike Bready & Cami Clay-August 15th New York Temple (not sure which one)
Jake Beuchert & Mindy-August 23rd Salt Lake City Temple
Ace Stryker & Lacy-August 2nd....i think Manti temple?
Matt Harris (from work) August 16th Washington DC Temple...i think
Jarrod Cain from work...not sure when or who to, but he is getting married
Ian & Rebecca (from the ward) Sometime in June
Rikki and Kevin (Cami Clay's roommate)-again not 100% sure when or where
Liesel Nielson....haven't talked to her in forever, but sometime this summer
........that's all i can think of for now. I know i know of more but i don't really care to put them. Just to make my point, i know of 8 weddings alone....just for this summer. I'm pretty sure at least 4 or 5 of them are in August....i will be attending probably just the top 3 since they are the closest friends. Heck i'll be in the line for the second one, just because he's basically a best friend since forever and wouldn't have it any other way.
So why am i going off on this? Do i wish i was engaged too? No. Not really. In fact, i don't think i'm anywhere near ready to be married. However, i would like to see my life maybe start going in that direction. But right now i'm just kind of trying to really find out who i am and what the heck my deal is with some aspects. WHAT do i want to do with my life...you know? I' m really happy for all the people that are getting married. That's great for them. If it's right for them in their life, that's awesome. I never imagined Mike and Cami would ACTUALLY REALLY be getting married (since apparently no one believes Cami :) ) But it is way awesome and i'm glad to support them.
As far as my life goes in that department, i'm working on it. Kamee and I went out again on this past Tuesday. I drove up to Brigham City (yes i know i am crazy) and went to hang out for a little bit with her before we went on our date. I wanted to be there when she got off work, but it turned out she had to go to the bank to get a loan for her car, so she wasn't available to hang out til around 4. I got there around 3:30ish. I just met two of her sisters, nephews, and dog. Then we went and got her Mom a drink to take to her work. I met her Mom. Then we went on a shopping spree...looking spree...to see if we could find some alligator binoculars....the reason for this....well at Disney on Ice (read here) We saw some kids that had them...obviously purchased at the event, probably for a ridiculous price. I'm sure they didn't work worth crap, but we have wanted to find some ever since...just cuz they are cool...i mean they are alligator binoculars....what's cooler than that? Anyway, in the end we didn't find them...and honestly i don't think either one of us expected to find them. We just got some from her house and took off. We decided to drive her car down to the game since i had just driven up from Provo and it just kind of made sense. Plus i could just come back after and hang out for a while. We went to Applebee's in Layton....and it was pretty cool cuz Kamee said she would pay for dinner. So this date, was kind of a joint date thing....i'm not sure what that means, if it means anything, but it was good. She's pretty much amazing. We continued and went to the Jazz game. We got there, and parked, and walked a bit. Luckily it was a nice night out, so it wasn't terribly cold. We get into the game, and go up to the upper bowl (i had tried to get tickets off of eBay for cheap, lower bowl...but it didn't happen, so i had to buy some upper bowl tickets.) ANYWAY...so we get up to our seats, and i look at the row and think "oh crap." There is a guy, and like 8 kids in the row where we were supposed to be sitting. I say "Umm i think you are in our seats." He just looks up at me and shakes his head with a sly little evil, stupid jerk, smile on his face and goes back to the game...i'm like.."yeah you are, let me look...yep you are." I get the same response and just decided it wasn't worth it to fight a guy that has 8 little kids with him for two seats. We find some seats the next row up and across the aisle and sat down. The Jazz won, the game was fun, and we had fun too. We got churros and powerade...w/out a lid...(I guess it's a stadium regulation they have to take off the lids so people can't throw lids at the players? But...if i'm going to throw something, might as well be more than a lid...like an opened, topless bottle of liquid....someone really didn't think this through)...We left the game early, 3 minutes, and walked back to the car. She was way tired, so i drove her car home for us. We got to her house and i met another sister, her brother, and her mom more formerly. Basically we all just sat there while they asked me a billion questions. But i didn't mind because i'm friendly like that and i was just happy to be there at the moment. I decided it was time for me to leave around 11:15 just cus i had to drive back to Provo to work the next day at 7 am....not smart....but you know what? It was worth it. Sometimes extra effort and sacrifice are needed to make things worth while. We are planning on getting together soon again, i hope sooner than later cuz it's hard not being able to hang out with someone that you have some interest in....but i think the distance thing just makes the chances we DO get together, that much better.
Lastly for now....and i have a whole other post i need to write about and put pictures on from our party last Friday...but i have a new/old friend. New and old. Britnie Richards. If any Beuchert is reading this, they will know who she is. Randomly she found me on facebook. She came to the party last week, and basically we have been texting and talking a ton lately.....becoming really good friends. She's pretty awesome. She's pretty much fully involved with somethings in my life right now....kind of awesome how things just pop up. I mean....only one person knew that i kind of needed a really extra good special friend right now in my life, and that person seemed to lead her into it. I know he is always watching out for me. Elder Eyring said once in a talk "God is always watching out for you and taking care of you." It's true. He does. He knows what i need, and why i need it, and whether or not it would be good for me to have it when asked for....just like a Father....amazing how that works! :)
Well my friends, this ends tonight's post. I have to work tomorrow...Saturday...from 8-5. Basically it sucks. But that's life. I hope this post has helped you all understand a little bit more how to live life and be good at it.
