Don't Say Anything Important While I'm Gone

One Less

I am officially One Less! I got my last Gardasil shot yesterday, so like on all the commercials, I am officially one less woman that will have to worry about cervical cancer! I was really nervous to get my last shot, but Kennedy distracted me by talking to me about other things while I was waiting to get it. Then, when the lady was about to give it to me, she said, "Do you want me to tell you when I'm going to do it, or just do it?" I said "Just do it!" It always hurts a little when they put it in, but luckily, this last one didn't hurt me any more than any of the others. So, I got off easy with these shots. They are supposed to be really painful. Amber got them and said it felt like liquid fire under her skin.

I also took my Final for my photography class on Monday. I didn't get to study as much as I wanted, to I missed a few questions I probably would have gotten right, but that's okay. For example, in case anyone wanted to know, your digital censor in your camera records information in back and white, not color. And, it doesn't do negatives like film, it records information in ones and zeroes. At least it is over now. I have been working a lot, and he gave us over 700 pages to review, so I am just glad it's over.

Yesterday Kennedy and I went and took some pictures for my calender. I wanted to re-create the picture of us kissing Santa Claus that we did in High School. It didn't really work how I wanted, but we got some cute pictures.

While kissing Santa Claus, Kennedy, Geoffrey and I witnessed a car accident right next to us on the street. Being the first responder that I am, I was the first person to call the police. The two men had gotten out of their cars and were just swearing at each other, so I took the initiative before things got even uglier.

Was it a SPIDER?!?

While Sarah has been out of town, I have trying to get a lot of the things done in the store that have been on her to-do list for a while, and haven't gotten done. The biggest thing were a lot of the light in the store were out. I changed 7 light bulbs in the back that were out, replaced a light cover in the back, two light bulbs in the cake case, and one in the sherbet freezer. The last one was the hardest one to find since it is a custom size, but I finally tracked it down. When I went in on Tuesday, I got Laura to help me put it in. I was just doing it all by tough since I could see what I was doing, and it is one of those ones where you don't screw it in, but you push it in to make it fit. Laura had her side in, and I was working on getting my side in. I must have been touching the wrong thing though, because as soon as I was close to getting it in, it electrocuted me!

I screamed. It hurt so bad! It seems like forever for me to let go, but really, it was only a second. I felt really dumb for screaming though. There were customers sitting down, and two more had just walked into the store. My boss was also there. The shock burned a part of my thumb. I had a little circle of dead skin. My thumb was bright red and it took a while for my hand and the rest of my arm to feel right. When my boss asked if I was alright, I really just wanted to cry. I just kept running my finger under cold water, even though it hurt to do it.

The funny part to this story, is that one of the women asked, "Was it a SPIDER?!?" I just thought it funny that I'm screaming from being electrocuted, and the first thing that she thinks of is a spider. It's funny the different things that we are afraid of.

Busy Week

Sorry I haven't posted a real blog in a while. I have been really busy lately, but here are some things that I have been up to:

1-Monday and Wednesday nights I have school, but I am almost done. I only have one week left before my final is due, and then I also have a final test. So, I am taking pictures like crazy, and going into school hours early so I can have enough time to use photoshop. It has been quiet a process, but I think I am getting the hang of it now that it is almost over.

2-Since Sarah is on her honeymoon, and with the holidays, a lot of people have been out of town. This week I am helping out in Sandy, Taylorsville and Bountiful aside from working Downtown. I am all over the place! Oh, and I guess I did run some things to Sugarhouse too. Does that still count? I have finally collected keys from all six stores! :)

3-I kind of already mentioned this one, but I went to Sarah's wedding reception. I almost didn't go, but I decided to in the end. Even though I had been kind of mad at her, I knew not going wasn't something I could take back later. She thanked me over and over again for going, so I think that she knew I was mad at her.

4- I also took bridals and couple pictures for my friends Molisa and Ben. She didn't have any Bridals done before her wedding and when she saw that I did Allie's she asked me if I would do some for her too.

I think that the pictures turned out really well. Even though Molisa asked me to Bridals, I got Ben to come too. Molisa didn't like her offical photographers pictures from her wedding, so the only ones they have up are the ones that I took. However, that was still in my learning stages, so all of the pictures have the wrong date printed in the corner.

Even though they have been married for over two years, the framed picture that they have up in there house is of them from our Senior Prom. I decided that we should get some good one sof them together so they could fix that.

I took a lot of pictures, but I don't want my entire blog to be filled with pictures. I know people don't like it when I make my posts too long...

5- Thanksgiving was awesome!! I will post more about that later when I upload my pictures from it. :)

I'm a little teapot, short and stout. Here is my handle, here is my spout.

I guess she doesn't like to pose clapping...

Thank You, Thank you!

Bouncing Bouncing Baby Cheese!!

In order to get Reagan to not be crying in that picture, that is what I was saying. I would bounce her, saying "Bouncing, Bouncing Baby, Cheese!" And pose. It works.
