So last weekend we all went to Schnepf farms. I think I spelled that right. It's some kind of festival they have going on during the fall and they have rides and activities and of course food so within the last couple of weeks I have definatly gotten my fill of carnival food. At the fair I had a funnel cake, turkey leg, corn dog, cheese fries, and fried zuchinni (that was in 2 trips to the fair)and the only thing missing was kettle corn so I completed the list on saturday at schnepf farms.

Ketchup
Ok, so far I'm not doing the greatest on keeping up with this blog thing but hey it's a new things. So last weekend I had alot of fun, the AZ state fair is going on right now and on Thursday night me and a couple of friends went to a goo goo dolls concert and it was pretty good, I have to admit i wasn't super excited for it because I havn't heard anything from them since like 1994 (a little exageration) but I went anyway and then on Saturday night WEEZER was playing and I'll admit I was a little more excited for that one, I have been wanting to see weezer for sooooo long they were the top on my list of bands that I still want to see and I am so ecstatic that I finally got to knock them off the list. It was an amazing concert and it was so much fun, they sang a couple of songs that I didn't know but for the most part I knew them and could sing along to most of the songs which makes a concert so much more enjoyable in my opinion. I have to admit though I was a little dissapointed because they didn't sing my song "Jamie" we even tried to yell so they would play it but when you are way up at the top of a basketball stadium with hundreds of screaming people it's kinda hard for them to hear you.
Another amazing thing I saw at the fair was an enormous cow. i have never seen anything so big in my entire life and the picture doesn't quite do it justice so I'm going to put it up here anyway for you all to see.

New job, new experiences
I'm not a good writer so I'm trying to figure out how to make this whole thing worth reading. It's not going to be very exciting if I just go through my day to day activities so i guess I have to figure out a way to make it so you want to keep coming back for more. Well, hopefully i'll get better with time but this is all new to me.
So, I started my new job on Monday, the first few days were a little intimidating and I wondered a little bit what I got myself into. But I guess every new job is like that in the beginning it just takes some getting used to and today was a really good day. I got to do alot more than in the previous few days even though i got yelled at for texting when I was supposed to be "learning". Well let me just tell you, I didn't learn anything I didn't already know. That's another thing that kinda bugs me about starting a new job. I guess i might do the same thing if i were in there situation trying to get someone used to a new place and how things worked. But everyone that i work with acts like I have never stepped foot in a dental lab before and don't have a clue what i'm doing which is slightly obnoxious. But it's been getting better slowly as the days go on but let me tell you, I'm really going to miss my 3 day weekends. It is nice being on salary and getting off at 2 and getting paid for running errands and going shopping, but 3 day weekends definatly are a luxury I will miss. I thought it might be nice working with 2 LDS guys being my bosses but of course I didn't realize that not all of the people that worked for them were LDS or had high standards or standards at all and let me tell you I definatly work for some characters but all I can do is put my headphones on and ignore the perverse stories from the old couple.
I had an MRI on wednesday for what I like to call my "cankle" I found it a couple of months ago when i was watching a movie and had my feet up. I just looked down and realized that one ankle was fatter than the other one. I'm assuming it's just a cyst that popped up there because I have had one on the same foot before that I had to have cut out so I'm thinking that's what it might be. I hate MRI's, I have self diagnosed ADD so it's very hard for me to have to lay still for 45 minutes with my foot strapped into this crazy machine but i survived. It's nothing I havn't done before. I havn't heard back from the Doc yet but hopefully early next week I'll know what I have to do.

Just getting started
I just thought I would try to get this going so my friends and family that are now all over the world could read, and contribute to keeping up with eachothers lives and happenings. Now the hard part, trying to get all of my family to get blogging. And trying to figure out the blogging thing for myself and actually get my page looking a little more personal. It could take time but time I have so hopefully it won't take too long.
