Bacon we can believe in

Well, things have changed immensely since I became a private blog. And frankly, some of those things, including but not limited to, being a private blog, have been really lame! So, from here on out, I am no longer a private blog! We are going to be a bit more careful and selective in our blogging language. And by we, I mean I. I'll no longer be posting anything with my last name or the specific city in which I live. Generics will be good enough! If all of you can kindly do the same, I'd appreciate it muchly! I'll see how it goes, and if need be (please bless not!) then I will switch back.

On to the fun stuff: Bacon! And by bacon, I mean change.

I am no longer living in S. Virginia. Or working in S. Virginia, if you know what I mean. I'm very disappointed with how things went down, but believe me when I say that I was miserable and mistreated there, so unnamed library can kiss my foot! I was sad to leave my roommate and my branch, though. Many tears were shed. I am a crybaby. That hasn't changed at all! And oddly enough, I really miss Maryland now that I'm back in the west. Virginia, not so much, but Maryland definitely. And has anyone else noticed how tiny the temples in Utah look? They're sitting there, all dwarfed by the mountains, while in DC, it's all, "Ta-da!" towering out of the trees over the freeway. Is it actually bigger? More grandiose? Or does the environment just make it seem that way?

Finally, after all these years (26, but who's counting?) I got my ears pierced! I can no longer safely perform my nervous habit of pulling on my ear lobes. Hee hee! It's kind of a kick in the pants, really.

I'm back at Mom and Dad's house! Another change that isn't so great. Obvs, Mom and Dad are swell, and it's great to see them, but at this point in my life, I am really regressing. Which is not what I want to do. I will be here until I get another (hopefully more pleasant) job, though, and I'm very, very grateful that I have this place to stay in my time of homelessness.

I guess that's all for now. But there have been big things lately, and my last blog was not only forever ago, but also about the world's biggest downer. But no more! I have a naturally cheerful disposition! I shall conquer! Go team me!

Wow...okay... I feel REALLY stupid. I have been thinking for awhile now how much I miss reading you blog. I didn't know why you stopped updating it. I now realize it is because when you go private, it doesn't show on my blog list that you updated it. Since I only check the blogs that have been updated, I never checked yours, and there for missed out on all your updates. I am glad you are back to public blog now :)

I tried going private once.... it stunk! Go Team you!!! I wish I was still in Utah, because then we could go and try to work at the Tanner Building together. And because we are so awesome, they would take us back.
