Day Four of No Phone...

As the title would suggest, yes I am still without a cellular telephone. And yes it really has only been four days. It feels like a year. Such long days of isolation from the outside world. Although today, I sat with someone at lunch that I probably would've just waved at and moved on because I would've just gotten a text from someone that I could meet. It was nice, so being out of communication is making me more social. Instead of just texting Shaugh, I went by her place of employment to ask a question. Again, more social. The biggest problem is that I'm now completely oblivious to the time. I refuse to wear a watch for who knows why. If I stop you in the hall to ask what time it is, don't think I'm weird.

This whole episode spurred the most impulsive ebay buy of my life. Sure I've bought my fair share of ebay auctioned items, but I've always shopped around and bid on the items with at least a few hours left. However, this particular item (a new phone) only had 2 minutes left. Yes two minutes. I quickly scanned the page and went to place a bid. *gasp* I wasn't signed in! I signed in to find that I then had 25 seconds left. I placed my bid and it was mine. Oops! Ebay will surely be the death of me, (by my husband) I can't stand to be outbid. My competitive side rarely comes out. These times are the exception.

Happy second day of school everyone. I will have to save that rant for another post. I don't expect it'll be too far out. Let the procrastination begin! Sometimes facebook just doesn't cut it.

The Last Weekend of Summer

*Disclaimer: this is Stan writing, not Chelsey. She wanted me to make sure to write that.*
Well, the summer is over as of tomorrow. Sad day. We had a really good summer. Chels already blogged about the cruise. We basically just relaxed all summer. It was a nice change from last semester, when we were busy every stinking day. We tried to go camping a few times, but I guess the powers that be don't want us in the outdoors. Every time we were going to go, we either decided to do something else, or it didn't work out. Like this weekend, we were going to rent a kayak from the ORC at USU and go up the canyon to go camping and kayaking. We got a late start and didn't get up the canyon until about nine thirty or so, and every campground in the entire canyon was packed. It was nuts. So we went kayaking at Hyrum Dam yesterday instead. It was fun, chasing the speedboats around to ride their wake. But, it was a great summer, and we're not looking forward to the next four months of school, but that's life.
