Micro Paint FOR LIFE

Got an email from my boss this morning asking about work updates, and at the bottom she included this picture, saying she was considering it for interior decorating. As a joke, of course.

This is normal behavior.
Naturally, I had too much to do this morning so instead of being productive I chose to find her and her husband's facebook pictures and fix it for her. A personal touch, if you will.
FIXED THAT FOR YOU.

Good thing I work for people who don't find me too creepy.

Incest

There have been numerous occasions where people have mistaken Liebhaber and I for brother and sister. It always make me throw up in my mouth a little bit. I don't know what possesses people to tell us, "OH WOW YOU ARE MARRIED?!?!?! I just though you were brother and sister. That explains way you are so handsy." (sadly, an actual quote. kill me now.) It's usually old men who say it. And I think we can all agree that "old men" are like the WORST demographic on the planet.

I don't know what about us makes them think we are incestual, but allow me to make it clear right now that we are in no way related.

Even a little bit.

At all.

Gah.

Life as We Know It

Last weekend I went to Memphis. This weekend I went to Colorado Springs. First time ever in Colorado. Other than DIA, of course. I move to CO in 2 weeks. That shi cray.

You can forgive me for my lack of interesting things to say. Because all I am doing right now is moving. It is engulfing MY LIFE. At least I have a job set in stone now and we found a place to live and arranged the moving van. My stress levels, while still high, are significantly lower than they have been.

BORING. Here are some random pictures for your fancy.
I made a tool belt for my sister in law's Swedish boyfriend. It was supposed to be for Christmas but...sigh...shutup it's badass.
IT HOLDS TOOLS.
OW OW sexy Liebhaber posin' in that belt OH EFF YEAH.
And now, the cutest baby ever. I'm obsessed with him when he wears adult clothing. Hoodie + converse = AMAZING.
First time down a slide on his own. NAILED IT.
Best friends forever.
He thinks he is so big.

Love this one. Ashley and Soren and a new friend.
BFF ROFLS.

Gpa getting his story time on, no big deal.

This is the face he makes any time he is concentrating. Tongue out, fat cheeks. SO CUTE.

Buddies!

This is one of the greatest pictures to date. Did you hear a faint pop? That was probably just one of my ovaries EXPLODING.

Then we had cupcakes.
And he ate a whole one, which would be like me eating an entire cake. So, naturally, he promptly lost his mind and had to go to bed early. I love him.
Welp. That's all folks.

Bad Photoshop

I really like how her wrist gets smaller as the weights get smaller.
What is this I don't even.

The Food Network Hates Canada

So Food Network magazine has a prize drawing for a year's worth of chocolate. All you have to do is guess how many chocolate chips are in a jar. But if you are in Canada, LOOK OUT.

Click to enlarge.
I know that is difficult to read, so let me help you out. If you guess the answer, you win. If two or more people guess the answer, then they have a random drawing from the two or more, and they win. But if a Canadian guesses the answer, they "will be required to correctly answer a mathematical skill-testing question as a condition of receiving the prize."

Food Network to Canada: Screw you, eh.

Moving and Learning and Life

Apparently we are moving to Colorado and not California. Sorry to throw a curveball at you, foreign stalkers, but that's life.

Basically we were less than 2 weeks away from our CA move date, and neither of us felt particularly good about it. I thought maybe it was just nerves, so I ignored it for a while. But the uneasiness kept getting stronger, so I asked Liebhaber how he felt and he agreed--something was off.. We decided to pray about it and attend the temple hoping for some guidance. It was pretty clear to both of us that CA is not where we need to be, at least not right now.

Liebhaber felt inspired to contact Carmichael Training Systems, a private coaching company, and they offered him an internship. It starts mid-March and goes through July, after which we hope they will offer him a full-time position. We are both very excited about the opportunity, and Colorado Springs will be a fun adventure.

The last few days have been a flurry of changing plans, reorganizing, and starting the whole moving process over again for a different location. It's stressful, sure, but in a much more positive way. I feel good about this move, and I'm excited to make it happen.

In other news, I have been trading personal training for coding lessons with Liebhaber's genius cousin. Since we live on opposite sides of the country, we have been sending each other information in emails. I'm super excited about it, both because I love training people and I love learning new things. I hope she feels as excited as I am, although a part of me thinks I am definitely getting the better deal.

I'll let you know all the cool things I'm learning by hacking into your computer and changing all of your icons to confusing pictures of me. This may not be possible. Hollywood might have me confused. I don't really care.

This is happening, on a desktop near you.

SOPA and PIPA

Stealing is not good, so it follows that piracy is not good. But you know what else isn't good? Stamping out user freedom on the internet. The internet is by the user, for the user. But if these bills pass, it won't be. And we don't need skynet. Let's strike. Write your representative and tell them you don't approve.
