There once was a dream called snow. This last week it has been rather cold and snowy. The coldness has been propogated by the sudden death of our heating. Baby it's cold outside (and inside).

We have, however, made good use of the snow. We have designed and created a monument to our superior culture on our front lawn. I have provided a picture below. Joint credit goes to our entire apartment with help from Melissa and Chiara. But... I must take the credit for recieving the inspiration for the monumental steps (also instrumental in the building process) and the lion. In conclusion, the neighborhood is very impressed and many pictures have been taken. Ironically, the Daily Universe (BYU's Newspaper) featured a snowman built on campus on their front page. I don't even know if you could call it a snowman, 3 balls with some sticks coming out it. Ours looks like Zeus, God of Olympus, in comparison. Lets just say that if good was gonna make a snowman, he would have made one that looks close to ours... obviously better, but similar.

In other news, Melissa got a job. I know it's amazing. She got hired on at US Bank. Full-time, benefits, more money than I've ever gotten. It just goes to prove that this whole school thing isn't all that it is cracked up to be.

I start work again tomorrow. It is sure to be a joy.

I am still awaiting news of the expected birth of my first neice... that should be happening soon.

I took the Physical Science 100 Challenge Exam so that I wouldn't have to take the class. I got a 58. I needed a 60 to pass. That really pissed me off. But I think that I am going to just take the final and see what I can get out of it.
