Adventures in Moving

I am exhausted. In an effort to preserve my personal days for vacations down the road, I decided to make the big move after work. I don’t accrue vacation until I’m at the company for over six months, so for the time being I’m trying not to take any time off.

I moved so much stuff yesterday! After work I went to my mom’s house where she and Cris helped me move my bed a few other things. After a quick dinner break I headed to my dad’s house to get the other big items and then I spent several hours unpacking all of my stuff.

Moving is exhausting. I am cutting back on sleep and my attention snap is shot because of it. Everything takes twice the amount of normal concentration. Just typing alone is quite a task.

But on the bright side, I have an apartment. I’ve got stuff to furnish it with and we’ve got an awesome plan for our kitchen table and I’m so excited, I just need about 16 hours of sleep before I’ll be able to show my excitement.

Can't Get Enough

Double OT!!!!

How awesome was that. In case you missed it, here it the game story.

Man I miss my old job.

I love March Madness, I don’t know if y’all saw Murray State beat Vanderbilt with a buzzer beater but I was walking passed the TV’s in the lobby and I saw the last four seconds and it was amazing!

I love championship time.

March is Awesome

Remember how much I don’t like February and how I love March??!!

Well, I still feel that way. March is so exciting. It is supposed to be close to 60 degrees today and I’m feeling good about that (I’m going to pretend like it wasn’t snowing yesterday).

I started filling out brackets for March Madness and I love it. I can’t wait for the games to start. LITTLE KNOWN FACT – I always choose Duke to win it all – always have and always will.

I don’t even have a great loyalty toward Duke, but I don’t like North Carolina so there. And the one time I went to North Carolina (for the NCAA Softball Regional which was actually at Chapel Hill) I stayed closer to Duke.

Let’s just take a minute to discuss the wonderful things that March has brought thus far.

1.Brady Quinn – coming to Denver!!! It is yet to be determined if he’ll be any better than Orton, but he is much nicer to look at.

2.Spring Training – I love reading about baseball again!

3.Spring Football – Just starting and it’s so exciting. I think the 2010 college football season is going to be very interesting.

4.New Apartment – moving in on Thursday!!!

5.New Shoes – seriously I got the most amazing pair of studded pumps, they are five inch heels so I’m ridiculously tall in them but they look amazing!

6.Nice Weather – It’s been so nice that I’ve been able to play outside on the weekends.

7.March Madness – It’s starting this week and it’s going to be great!

Sad...

Today I wanted to cry.

That is being a little dramatic, but the realization that I am not going to be working with a baseball team this season is starting to sink it.

Please do not misunderstand me, because I am so grateful to have a job right now. I have met so many people who have recently graduated and cannot find a job. It makes me incredibly grateful.

Today is the home opener for the BYU baseball team. Right now they’re up 4-2 against Washington and hopefully they could pull through with a win.

I just miss being in the press box, I miss tracking down the lineups and posting them for the media – the pre-game meals.

I miss prying open the windows of the press box in an effort to better understand the umpire when he calls balls and strikes and having to crank the heat up because of the cold air rushing in from the window.

My heart hurts a lot. This feeling reminds me of the feeling you get when a boy you used to date starts dating someone – you feel replaced, cast aside. I don’t like it.

Thank You World

 

In Denver - I'm so happy!
