don't judge this post, you know I should be sleeping

I've been thinking all day that it was Monday.  I know it's Friday, but today was the only day I had to work, so my brain said "Yo, it's Monday".  I checked my email several times for missionary boy's email. I even checked Matthew's blog TWICE during lunch.

I know it's Friday, now.  Tomorrow is Super Saturday in our ward.  I'm excited to be crafty.  Actually, I'm excited for human contact outside of my family and students.  It's getting pretty limited now days.  

My countdown is in the 30s.  Hallelujah!

I text Dallin so much! It's ridiculous.  He's kind of like my twitter account.  I pretty much  4-6 times a day.  The good thing with texting him is 1)  I'm pretty sure he doesn't mind  2) he hardly ever has his phone with him so he doesn't get my constant texting.   I have no idea what I'm going to do when he reports on Wednesday for the MTC.  Maybe I'll just send him TONS of dearelders.  We'll see.

I think the fam might actually be going somewhere for Thanksgiving.  Usually we stay home and just have dinner with our immediate family.  The past couple of years my sister's boyfriends (who ever they are at the time) usually come over for pie.  I kind of like doing that because we have TONS of leftovers.  But the idea of going to our extended family's sounds so great!  And plus it's my birthday!

I keep telling mom that I'm not going to have a wedding.  I'll get married/sealed in the temple but I don't want the wedding with bridesmaids and receptions or flowers and cake.  I think it's a waste of time. But she says I have to. I don't even see this happening in the next 3-5 years so no need to worry about it now, just know I'm anti-wedding.

Brother Nelson, Wednesday, commented to me about how great our graduating class is when it comes to missionary work!  It's so true! There are so many awesome young men serving missions. I'm so proud of all of them. ALSO, it makes me really happy to think that all of our group of friends that graduated together (Krishia, Karsen, Ryan, Spencer, Tyler, Jake, Justin) have all gone through the temple and are doing great!  SO SO HAPPY!

Justin, Lynnzie's boyfriend, and I looked up when the new Sherlock Holmes movie comes out.  DECEMBER 16!! In case anyone was wondering.  But that means I get to see it before I leave!

Mom wrote when our family's Christmas will be.  It's looking like December 17th.  We are going to the Dickens Festival on the 16th.  I think everyone should look up the Dickens Festival. It's so great!  We went last year and we're going again this year.  (Meg, I think you'd love it.  It's themed after Charles Dickens and Victorian ages!)

I'm so excited to be a missionary! YAY!
