back again

well, i've finally found my way back to the blog. i guess i was just using the wrong user name or something...
for an update, i'm in my own apartment now. i moved in about 2 weeks ago. so far i haven't had any troubles with the neighbors, so i guess it won't be as uncomfortable as i thought.
i'm down to the last week before finals, which means all the projects and papers that i've been ignoring are due...no sleep for the procrastinator!
mcdonald's is good, no real news on that front.
heather and i are getting along famously, but no news there either...
oh! i am michael, the archangel, in the children's musical at new life this year...vastly exciting...
i've also been attending covenant life fellowship, which is pastored by dave york, for those of you who know him. i am learning a lot there, and i am also involved in 2 Bible study-type groups through the church.
well, i need to get back to my homework, so i will continue this later.
love to all

Heather says Hi!

Dynamite!

Hello my beautiful family...

I realize that it's probably too late for some of you, but for those of you not yet done shopping for me, I would absolutely love to have Napoleon Dynamite on DVD (it comes out December 21st).

Well, it's frosty and fun in Newberg...I bet Bethy and Matt got some snow this weekend (I'm so jealous). I've taken three applications to the Starbucks in Sherwood, and I'll take one more before giving up, but I just got done talking to my old boss at the Underground who is willing to take me back (but I have not committed to anything as of yet because I'd much prefer Starbucks employment).

Kisses and frostiness!

hi...this is NOT your mother. this is robin goodfellow (aka timmy). i am having trouble with the blog. evidently, if you let it set for a few months without additions, it closes all your blog links but not your account. i speak from personal experience. i would appreciate it if you would send me another invitation so i can start anew. i know that you said that i only get 3 tries, and i know that i've used all of those up, but PLEASE have mercy! i am on my knees (figuratively) begging you! thanks. i knew i could count on you.

Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to my wonderful family!

As I sit here in our apartment, drying off from my swim and getting ready to go to our friends for Thanksgiving dinner, I can't help but think of you guys and what will be going on there in 12 hours:

Piling into the cars and driving to Castle Rock
Arriving before the rest of the family and getting the first helpings of the finger foods
Greeting other family members
Sampling different Sparkling drinks!
Separating to eat at the kids table (or adults table)
Putting olives on your fingers
Stealing the olive dish from the adults
Maybe putting some licorice in the olives??
Becoming impatient waiting for dessert
Playing frisbee
Talking til late
Resting in the hot tub
Opening Christmas presents!
Playing ActiVision

I will miss them all!

Oh, can't forget the pebbernauders (I know I spelled that wrong) bouncing them off the ceiling before catching them in your mouthes!

Have a great Thanksgiving! Right now I am thankful for all the Thanksgiving memories!



Oh, I thought of another thing that I want for Christmas: Pebbernauders!!!! Lots of them!

Love you much, pass the love around for me!

Some possibilities...

Howdy y'all!

The new job at Best Buy goes well. Presently, I don't see myself getting full time hours. I am scheduled for only 13 hours next week, so it seems I am right in staying active in the search for full time work. Gotta love it.

I am listing a few possibilities for your Christmas shopping. I only like to make a list all in one sitting, so I have waited until I had the time to do so. Here it be...

--The Star Wars trilogy on DVD (Widescreen format specifically)
--the book Oregon Place Names & Their Meaning (or something to that effect :)
--any Simpsons season on DVD from season TWO onward
--classic Nintendo games like: The Legend of Zelda or Metroid or Super Mario Bros. 3
--We could really use some spending cash for while we're in Chicago.
--I still like old historical books, especially local histories.
--a decent set of screwdrivers
--any clothing w/ Oregon Ducks logo(s) on it
--The Ewok Adventures on DVD (coming soon)
--maybe even some kind of interesting documentary-type DVDs
--Best Buy/Target gift cards are cool too.

I reckon that's all folks. Can't think of anything else. I leave you with a Christmas "poeddle."

Tis the season
No. Not spring
We talkin' summer?
No we're not!
Fall, is it?
Well, it is...

...the wrong season.
Is it winter?
No, not at all.
I've guessed all four!
There is one more.
Whatever do you mean?

Please, pass the salt.

List Additions

I thought of a few more things I wouldn’t mind getting for Christmas:

Nice coasters
Plant stand
Wind chimes with pretty sound

And the Lemax village houses that I listed earlier, the ones I like are the ones with lights on them.

Of course you have the freedom to get me something other than what I’ve listed, too. I’m sure there are a multitude of things that I would enjoy that I haven’t thought of….

Enjoy the season, all of you. I love you!
