The internet connection in our appartment hasn't been working so well lately (add that to the list of things that we need to let maintenance know about...) so I'm at school checking my email and what not. I realized that it's been a while since I've posted anything. So even though there aren't pictures, here are some highlights of the last little bit:
1-New movies! Jolley's Corner's Top Hat Video is no more. They are selling all their movies that
they used to rent. Now they are going to sell more clothes! Clothes! At Jolley's! Interesting. I mean really...I can't tell you how many memories I have of that place. Yes, it's still there, but not the videos. We'd go walk to Jolley's all the time when I was little for a movie and some candy. I remember one time when my parents went to rent a movie and we had so many late fees that instead of renting the movie he picked out, they canceled our account. They ended up opening it back up because of the convenience of having a movie store two blocks away, but it just goes to show that we rented a lot of movies, and paid a lot of late fees. You know, that could be one of the reasons that they are closing-we dont' rent as many movies as we used to, and that means no late fees. We probably kept them in business, paying more in late fees than we ever did in rental fees. Okay, that's an exageration. But anyways, they have 
been selling their movies, so I went to get some. Last night we watched Pete's Dragon. That is such a great show! I love Elliot. I really do. Then two nights ago we watched Thoroughly Modern Millie. Another great one. I don't think Danny was as impressed with it as I was though. I do admit, it's been a while since I've watched it, and I realized that it is pretty dumb and has some interesting parts, but... what great music! And awesome Chinese guys. (SIDE NOTE: One of the tech guys here in the computer lab walked by and saw the picture of Pete's Dragon, and said "what was that?" as I scrolled past it. I thought I was going to get in trouble or something, but I showed him and he goes "PETES DRAGON! I love that show!" And continued to tell me that I have got to watch the director's cuts. There are like two more songs and 20 more minutes of video!!! We have got to find the remote control... as he walked away he said "Pasamaquady!!") Anyway, we'll miss Top Hat Video.
2-Basketball! Danny and I both signed up for our ward teams, and then Danny signed up for the law school intrumurals team. Woo hoo! It's been way too long since I've played. But it'll be another good way to exercise. I think I'm finally more confident that I won't re-mess up my back by playing. We'll see. I'm excited though!

3-Projects! I have decided that if I could stay home all day and sew, I probably would. Not that I'm all that good, but I love it. It's fun to have a project to work on. I lucked out... my Mom is amazing and always has good ideas for projects. That and she lets me use all her stuff! I apologize to Danny because some how little strings and fluffies end up everywhere in our appartment.
4-We watched the superbowl and a Superbowl Party at Danny's parents house. It was the first time in my life that I have ever watched the superbowl. I guess I've never really followed football outside of the U of U. It was fun though! We got to play with niece and nephews, hang with brothers, sisters, and parents, and eat all kinds of yummy snacks! Isn't that what watching the Superbowl is all about? That and the commercials.
Well, lot's more has happened lately, but that will have to do for now. School and work definitely take up a huge piece of our time, but luckily not so much that we can't watch fun movies and play a little bball!
