90's dude, tennis lady, and rocks

The gym is a blogger's paradise. 

There is a guy there that wears a jersey everyday with no shirt underneath and has bleached spikey hair because apparently no one told this poor dude that the 90's are over.

Tonight there was also this stupid lady who comes right over and changes the channel I am watching, okay fine, she didn't know I was watching it, but the problem I have is that the channel she changes it to is playing on the TV right next to the one I was watching. And the kicker? SHE CHANGED IT TO TENNIS. Seriously? Tennis? Tennis is stupid to watch, not to mention watching it on TWO TV's at the gym is stupid. This isn't your home theater lady, you can't just change all the TV's to the shittiest channel just because YOU want to watch it. You have no idea how upset I was. It was embarrassing how upset I was, and the fact that I am still upset and blogging about it is also potentially embarrassing.

Bottom line? like I have said before, people at the gym are crazy.

Moving on,

Bart and I were watching a cheaply made documentary about the drug problem in Utah County, aka Happy Valley and all I have to say is that people need to get over themselves. This one guy was talking about how his sister moved to California because she was "sick of being judged" well ya know what lady? I feel sorry for you, I feel sorry that you let other people dictate your life. I promise not very many people care what you are doing -good or bad- so stop flattering yourself into thinking that everything you do or don't do is being scrutinized by the neighbors.

You are being what my dad calls a rock. 

You are letting things happen to you, and acting on you, instead of acting on them. 

You have complete control of your feelings, including being offended that people are judging you. GET OVER IT. You are going to be judged everywhere you go, that is just the truth of this sad sad world we live in. People will judge you based on a number of things when you are different from them. You can't move to a different state every time your neighbor looks at you funny and then blame it on the state itself. It's stupid and self absorbed.

Dreaming in Grey's

So we were finally able to sign up for a gym membership in town, and people are insane. Seriously, these people are gross, the men can't even put their arms down all the way. As Bart gracefully put it, "How do they even wipe their ass?" Graphic I know, but it's so so true. There is also this chick who doesn't wear a bra, not that she needs one because her boobs are so so fake.

Also,

I am currently re-watching Grey's Anatomy seasons and they are fabulous...I actually dream in Grey's Anatomy now so that's cool. I miss not being able to go to work and talk about what I am watching though, I haven't quite gotten to that level of friendship with the crazies I work with.

oh, AND,

The thunder and lightning last night kinda freaked me out...and by kind of I mean I was strapped to Bart's side through the whole thing.

Chronicle v. Statesman

So I have my first assignment tonight for the Daily Utah Chronicle, which is not nearly as awesome as the Utah Statesman but hey, I am down to slim pickins.  (Plus they pay $20-$35 an article, which is dang good compared to the Statesman....but I still like the Statesman better obviously :)

Anyway, I have this event to cover tonight which I am already not happy about because it is Sunday and I already had to work all day today so the last thing I want to do is drive up to that stupid campus and attend this thing. I am kind of nervous because I have been trying since Thursday to get a hold of the people in charge of this event but NO ONE has called or emailed me back. Seriously? I am going to have to waltz in there demanding who is in charge so I can talk to someone, which I really hate doing. I don't have the balls yet as a journalist to do my job, and that is problematic sometimes, including this time. I just need to suck it up and hunt them down one. by. one.


Also, the wonderful University of Utah hasn't gotten my financial aid figured out yet so come September 6th, I might not be going to school this semester, which is just awesome because that means I would have to work full time at my new job where insane people work. Yay, can't wait for THAT to happen.

p.s. When I say insane, I truly mean insane, but I am not minding it too much....it makes me feel like I am the most normal person in this small strange world.

Radio Guy

Dear guy in my radio class,

You say you interned for ESPN in D.C but you don't know the difference between two different mics? Just because you took out the trash and got some coffee doesn't mean you know everything about radio.

and of course you drive a golf cart around campus, of course.

Sincerely,

Megan

Who needs sleep when you have Blogger?

First day of class tomorrow and I can't sleep. I would get out if bed and make this post prettier than my I-toy allows but that would require that 1. I get out of bed and B. That I give up my warm spot next to Bart, so that's not happening. I feel like our AC is on ALL THE TIME but Bart is apparently hot so we just keep that sucker blowing.

I went to my first day at the new job today and it wasn't a total disaster. For some reason I was really nervous and shook through the whole first hair cut. Everything is in different spots and they do random stuff that isn't normal to me because I have been doing it differently for the past 21 months so it kind of threw me off. The clients were very nice though, I dont know if it was just the guy upstairs helping me realize it wont be so bad or if people really are just nicer, but I didn't mind. And of course they aren't as cheap as good ole cache valley which is also a plus. I do miss my friends though and Caitlin since I know you read this:

Caitlin > Hans :)

Did I mention school starts tomorrow? And That I will be feeling like a freshman once again? And that I will be riding public transpiration for the first time in my life? Yeah, maybe that's why I can't sleep.

Hi, my name is Megan and I am good at many things, change is just not one I them yet! Stay tuned for my adventures tomorrow since I have plenty of breaks and no friends. Yay!

Marriage part 2

So I wrote THIS blog post 2 1/2 weeks into being married, and now that we have been married 13 weeks I have a few more things to add to the list. 

No one should own this many basketball/gym shorts and they probably don't really need to be washed after every use

Bart claims I have a lot of clothes, but we take up the same amount of space in the closet

Apparently I radiate too much body heat at night for someone to comfortably sleep next to

I am okay with just eating a baked potato for dinner, but Bart needs a complete meal

Hanging up stuff the right way (with a hammer and nails) is much easier, and looks much better, than sticking tacks into the walls and hoping they stay

He puts the silver wear facing up in the dishwasher "so they get clean" I put them face down "so they don't have to be touched taking them out"

We regularly go out wearing the same thing together: Basketball shorts, Aggie shirt, and flip flops.

If person A cares more about Topic 1 than person B, person B should just do what person A wants.

The thermostat is a touchy subject, change it ONLY when the other person isn't looking
