just a quick update.

first of all, no more scary spiders in my car (that i know of anyway) so yay on that.

second, i took your advice and spoiled myself with brandon flowers' new album. love it.

third, i am excited about going to st. george in a few weeks with my parents to meet with mike & val during conference weekend! that will be awesome. i miss them too much. talking on the phone & skyping is cool and all, but really just not good enough.

fourth, my new calling is assistant ward sports specialist. so that should be fun. i'm starting to break out of my box a little. but i decided i am kind of anti-social a little bit. i've always been kinda shy and it hasn't improved since i have gotten older. sometimes i think i must be really awkward in social settings, but i'm not sure. which brings me to my next matter of business...

(fifth) i am really, really happy to have justin. he just has my back, you know? like, i can always count on him. friends are good, family is even better, but nothing beats a best friend/lover. he he. 

sixth, my birthday is at the end of october, and i have already started shopping. mostly with justin's mom who says "get something for your birthday!" and then she makes me take it home with me. he he. its the best, really. but tonight we went with jamie to nordstrom rack and it was fabulous. i picked out a lot of fun things (that are really for my birthday this time). so i can't wait to get them all.  

and i know everyone has been raving about fall coming, but come on. it was in the 80's today. i am sick of this. i want some cool weather!!
