Roommates

Top 10 Reasons You Know You Live With 3 Other Guys

  2. One of those dishes was a large cup (not a bowl) used to eat cereal out of.
  3. The bathroom always stinks; not because of bowel movements but because the towel on the rack hasn't been cleaned in over a month.
  4. The same above goes for sheets on the bed except (for those with a weak stomach) for an undisclosed amount of time.

  6. NO ONE knows where the broom is.
  7. A conversation is frequent, First roommate:"Hey, are you downloading anything?" Second roommate: "Yeah, why?" First roommate: "Can you hurry up, the internet is too slow to support 'Counter Strike'". The same conversation is had with the other two roommates with answers similar.

A fun trip for "business"

From an earlier post, I am now at liberty to say what I was hinting to. I am dating again. She attends my ward and is a great individual. She's an athletic trainer going to school to get her master's in kinesiology. We've been together a little over a month and I'm enjoying life with her! She lives about 30 minutes away from me but we make it work.

This weekend, we went to College Station, TX to see some of her old friends. She use to be the athletic trainer for Utah State's softball team and they were invited by Texas A&M to play in a tournament. We drove through Houston and had lunch with the GF's mission president and then went on to College Station to catch the last few innings of the second game. We watch two more games on Sat. and one on Sunday. We had a blast.

One of the funny moments from the trip was during sacrament meeting when the organist stopped playing the opening hymn after the before the 4th verse. Ironically, we were just talking about that very same thing the day before. Also, there were a ton of young married couples there and the bishopric was eying us when we sat down and all through sacrament..."fresh meat." Too bad we were just visiting.

A cool factor is I met the wife of my "grandpa" from the mission. My trainer's trainer is married to a sister of one of the softball players. Small world indeed!
