Walk it out Granny!!!!

Dear John,

I have a client at work that reminds me of the walk it out granny. My client Pat is hilarious. She is eighty-seven and went to a theme park for her daugher's birthday and you better believe she rode every ride her daughter and her grandkids rode.And on halloween she decided to party it up so she left her oxygen in her car and went to a bar and partied till midnight!!!! I don't go to bars now so i'm sure i won't when i'm eighty-seven; but i hope i have half the spunk and zest for life that these ladies do. So live it up and walk it out grandmas!

Sincerly impressed but mostly amused,

Gleeks

Dear John,

We are now officially "gleeks". We'd heard a lot about the t.v. show Glee and decided to watch it Wednesday night and see what all of the hype was about. First impression- "Wow all of these kids look way better than anyone did in our high school." Afterthought- "They are probably all at least 21." Second impression- "Okay I love this show just because Finn is gorgeous and has an amazing voice. I think we will keep watching just for him." Last Impression- "Puck is equally gorgeous. He is a jew but we think he looks like a lamanite. I will probably get struck by lightning for saying this, but I may or may not be picturing Puck everytime I read the BOM from now on."

-Conclusion- Any show with ridiculously gorgeous and extremely talented men will keep us interested.

Got the Moves

Dear John,

Sorry for the lack of interesting stories to post. Our lives are pretty dull at the moment. As soon as something minutely noteworthy happens--we'll blog! In the meantime here is a video I cannot get enough. This seriously makes me cry from laughing so hard.

Dear John,

We have both moved out and then came home for the summer. As you well know its now october, summer is over but regretfully i still live downstairs in my parents basement and my sister is upstairs across the hall from our parents. Everyone of our potential roommates bail out on us so moving out again has become something we enjoy only in our dreams each night. We may just have to embrace weber state life which for most students at this particular college entails living at home and commuting to school. So today i went to the local singles ward; ya know that ward where all who attend are the kids you went to high school with, the ward where the bishop just happens to work with your dad, and everyone there can still remember what you looked like while going through puberty. Yeah that kind of singles ward. I was kinda excited to see who would be there and what everyone was like. I was disappointed however to find out that nothing had changed. The clicks were still the same. People still sat by the same people they hung out with years before in high school, there were still boys wearing cowboyboots with their suits, the weirdo highly spiritual couple still make comments to every question. And like every small town everyone knows your business and has way to much of your personal information they got from someone other than yourself. Wow some things never change.

Simply,

Dear John,

I'm glad the important details of the news are in these people's hands. Seriously. This is brilliant.



Intrigued,

Dear John,

So we (K&L) have never actually deared a John, but we wanted to feel included in this mormon female rite of passage. We're actually kind of against the whole waiting for missionaries thing. Writing a friend that's fine, but i'm not into waiting for missionaries i think they need to focus on the work and they can worry about all the frustrations that come with girlfriends and dating when they get home. So this isn't your typical dear john letter. I mean seriously what two sisters would both write the same dude? Pretty sketchy..... i like to think we're not that way. Anyway, so my sister has a way boring job. She is a secretary and sits at the computer all day which is where she started following blogs. She would come home and tell me about these blogs she would follow and show them to me on her laptop. So we decided to venture into the blogging network and create one of our own; share our opinions and insights of young adulthood as well. Kinda fun huh?

So my insight for today is actually a question. Are dating games really necessary? I for one am not into the games. I will go out with a guy a few times and see if i like him and see if it could go anywhere. If i don't see it going anywhere or i am just not into him then i try and end it early. Why drag it out? If i do like him i keep dating him. That is to say if he feels the same way. The whole making him jealous or using one guy to get to another i am totally not into that However, i do know of some people that think that games are a necessary part of dating. They need to know "how he really feels." These girls and guys feel that with the games they get to know the person they're interested in better. Why do you think that is? I don't get it. Is it just the drama or excitment? Truthfully I don't understand. Anyway John why do you think that is? Any ideas? Just curious......

MyFace?

So, the other day I'm sitting on the couch blog stalking or something equally productive on my laptop. My dad looks over at me and asks "Do you have a myface page?" Me and my sister look at each other and laugh. My dad is still confused and doesn't get the joke. He's very technologically savvy...obviously. I tried to explain the difference between Myspace and Facebook but it was kind of pointless. Anyway, thanks for the heads up on sexual predators online dad...you were only about ten years late with that lecture.
The real point of myface is that we (okay just me, my sister never got into that) are leaving the facebook/myspace world and conforming to the world of bloggers. Why? Facebook is dumb. It eats up hours of time with stupid quizzes, mafia wars, and farm game crap things. Status updates are ridiculous attempts at "mini" blogs and they just suck. So, here we are. Two twenty-something mormon females conforming to a new way to eat up hours of time (in a much classier, more entertaining way).

P.S. Today was Columbus Day. The bank was closed, the post office was even closed, yet I still had School. Dumb. What's up with that?



"Today, I changed my language on facebook to English (UK). I still have no idea what changed except that I'm reading it in a British accent. MLIA."
