Moveeeng


Somebody finally signed for our apartment. A lot of relief comes with this, but now Seth and I need to go apartment searching… again. I have moved three times in the past six months, which is a lot. I don’t feel like I am grounded in one place, but that doesn’t bother me. I always thought it was cheesy when I read cross-stitched pillows and pictures that say, “Home is Where the Heart Is,” but I think it is true. When I am with Seth, I don’t really care if I move around a lot. Gag, gag, whatever. With that said, I will never be putting that phrase on my wall OR my couch. 

I also need to find out if Seth and I can go on our honeymoon during Christmas break or not. A cruise? A trip to somewhere close? I still don’t know what we are going to do. If anyone has any ideas, let me know.

And because I think it is neat-o:

Halloween!

(I wrote this yesterday. I don't know why it didn't post!)
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
This is one of my favorite holidays, as I can dress up and no one thinks twice about it. This Halloween, I am Hermione Granger. Everyone in my office area is dressed up, because we rock like that. I wanted to go as Lady Gaga, but I am not sure anyone would have appreciated that.
My office also put on a spook alley in one of the conference rooms. I am still debating on whether to go or not. I want to, because it looks rather scary. Yet I am too scared to go by myself. I am in a terrible predicament, my dears.
Oh, and this weekend, the most miraculous thing happened: Seth went running with me. It was only for a mile, but running is his least favorite thing to do. He just knew that running with me would make me happy, and it did. I think I married a very nice boy.
David and Heather (my cousins) invited Seth and me over for dinner, too. We brought SOUTHERN banana pudding (not to be confused with our Yankee style), but we spilled it all over the back of the car. Cry, cry. Luckily there was still enough to eat for dessert.

Doubt

A year ago, BYU-I put on a production of a play called Doubt. I took Seth to it just for something to do while he visited me. It turned out to be one of the best plays I have ever seen. It takes place in a Catholic school, and the principal is a very strict nun who sees evil in everything, while a young teacher is a kind nun who sees the good in everything. In the school, there is a priest who is suspected of molesting a young boy. Throughout the whole play, you are left unsure if the priest is guilty or innocent. You are pulled one way and then the next after every scene. The play is more than just about the simple story line. There are so many themes of doubt that reach you on every level, not just your doubt about the priest. In other words, it was amazing.
The reason I bring this up, is because a couple nights ago I watched the movie. It has a star cast of Meryl Streep, Amy Adams, and Philip Seymour Hoffman. It was just as good as the play I saw a year ago. Ya’lls should watch it. It will make you…happy? Whatever. You will like it.
