Bookstore WIN

Last night Joel and I went on our monthly trek to the bookstore to buy unnecessary books that we will probably look at once and never touch again until the next time we move and have to pack and unpack said unnecessary books.  This month's topic: Backyard Beekeeping.  Last month's topic: a book about planting gardens in Utah, which is probably really cool but also has been sitting under the bed after I finished flipping through it a month and a half ago.

Anyway, while Joel was deciding which book would be most helpful as he begins his journey into maybe, possibly keeping bees in the backyard someday, perhaps, I saw this:

Hee!  Awesome, right?  The only way it would have been better is if they had put the Bible section by the Mythical Studies section, where it belongs.  Oh, SNAP!  I said it!  Look at me.  I watched Religulous this weekend and now I'm dissing the Word of God.  What's next?  A Darwin fish on the back of my car?  Scribbling out "God" on all of our money and writing "Obama" in its place?  Becoming a Communist?!?  Where will I stop?  Next time, I'll have to make sure to get a lot of books about possibly, perhaps, maybe, someday becoming a real atheist. 

Until then: Just kidding, Jeebus!  Ha ha... ha?  Say hi to your dad!

You might have noticed

that I haven't posted anything since April.  No?  Just me?  But I have excuses:

1. Our computer broke and so the only time I really have a computer is at work, and you know how much I hate to write blog posts at work. 
2. Speaking of work: it's busy.  I'm writing pretty much all of th appeals we're doing, which means I'm writing two to three 20 page memos a month.  After all that writing, sometimes my brain hurts and tries to escape from my head, so I have to stare at the wall until I can form a sentence.  I've also been doing more hearings, which... let's just say they aren't my favorite.
3. We have a house and a yard and a garden that I have to neglect.  That's a lot of neglect, you guys!  It takes me all day sometimes!  There is so much laying around to do at home that I almost can't even get it all done by myself.  And god knows my husband isn't going to help me with it!  What with his, "Hey, Carrie, let's go pull weeds!" and "Carrie, it's a beautiful day outside!  Let's go on a walk!"  It's insufferable, really.
4. I am doing absolutely nothing and, thus, I have a distinct lack of subject matter about which I can blog.  I've also found that other people's blogs are much more interesting than mine, so I've been spending my time looking at those instead of doing it myself.
