Star Struck

Supposedly a leading man in one of the following films has rented the condo across the hall. I guess he is working on a TV movie here in Provo. It just so happens that this guy is my favorite star from the 80s.

I watched this one film in particular over and over when I was younger - so much so that I have pretty much every word memorized.

Here is the game - you guess which guy from which movie. Here are your choices:

• Pretty in Pink
• Jon Cryer (Duckie)
• Andrew McCarthy (Blaine)
• James Spader (Steff)
• Some Kind of Wonderful
• Eric Stolz (Keith)
• Craig Sheffer (Hardy Jenns)
• Breakfast Club
• Emilio Estevez (Andrew Clark)
• Anthony Michael Hall (Brian Johnson)
• Judd Nelson (John Bender)
• Sixteen Candles
• Michael Schoeffling (Jake Ryan)
• Anthony Michael Hall (The GEEK)
• Gedde Watanabe (LONG DUCK DONG)
• John Cusack (Bryce)
• Lucas
• Cory Haim (Lucas)
• Charlie Sheen (Cappie)
• Jeremy Piven (Spike)
• Say Anything
• John Cusack (Lloyd Dobler)
• Jeremy Piven
• Eric Stoltz
  

If I run into him, I'll post a picture and you can see if you are right. I'm a bit obsessed. I've been taking the garbage out and visiting Larry and Jewel a lot more often. I dreamed about him for the past two nights although I have not seen him yet...

OCD

It is hard for Ann Dee to bring Van to my house because I'm a little bit of a neat freak and I'm super organized. So when Van dumps all of these on the carpet, it isn't that simple to just put them back ...

Van better learn his ABCs if he wants to keep this up!

Obsession

I can't stop taking pictures of the mountains.
OK, that's it - at some point this summer I am going to hike to the top of this mountain.

Any takers?

Help my brother in law

My brother in law, Cameron, asked me to post this survey on my blog. He's desperate - it's for his final coming up. Cameron is the dad of Van - and this is a picture of them.

Take it or don't take it, I've done my part.

This is what the survey is about:

I got this photo from Dori - Thanks.

This is Ann Dee's chubby hubby, Cameron. I've got a question for you that might take four minutes for you to answer. Well, there's actually ten questions, and they are located here. Its about global warming and how you feel, think, swim and eat as my neighbor on earth. So, please. I'm begging you. And, in case you didn't see the small link before: Click Here to take survey

Confessions

The following confessions all have to do with this musical instrument:

Confession #1: I first started violin lessons at age 6. My teacher, Mrs. Primrose was mean so after every lesson Larry would take me to Reams (the turtle shell) and buy me a triple scoop ice cream cone. Jewel would have not liked this at all so Larry would drive around Provo until I was finished. Tonight Larry and I told Jewel this and she laughed and laughed.

Confession #2: After school, Ann Dee and I would eat junk and watch soap operas (Bo & Hope) until we heard the garage door open which meant that Jewel was home. Then we'd hurry and clean up and pretend like we were practicing the violin for the last hour.

Confession #3: When I was a sophomore in high school I was in early morning orchestra. I would arrive at the school really early before it started and instead of going to orchestra, I hung out in the commons area on the blue couches and either slept or talked with kids who got to school way too early.

Do I still play the violin?
What do you think?

Choose the ...

The other day my 12 year old nephew sang this line,

"Choose the sprite when the coke is placed before you."

I have been worried about him ever since. I need to take a more active role in his life - I blame myself.

Speaking of soda, check out what I have committed to HERE. You'll never believe it!

Let's give em something to blog about

So my life lately has been all about work and school and putting together a highlight video for the Lady Cavemen. Plus I actually got sick this week - haven't gotten sick in a long time.

I really can't think of anything to blog about. If you were me, what would you do that is blog worthy?

This morning I did actually make German pancakes for Larry and Jewel.

See...

here is the proof.

Last night while my dad was at priesthood with some brothers, Karen and I got Jewel talking and I happened to have my video camera set up in my office and I was able to video tape her without her knowing. I need to make a documentary about them.
