Yay! That's great Imogen.

So glad!

<3

phew!

I finally got a haircut.

Congrats!

My life is crazy today! I have two tests (one to cram for), four to five hours of TA work to complete, and it all has to be done by 6:30 when a friend is opening a mission call in Springville!!! So why am I online? I HAVE NO IDEA.

Interestingly, I met Lloyd Newell in the temple last night. He's a nice guy. And yesterday I was interviewed by Stephen Mansfield for his new book about Mormons... it was nerve-wracking.

Anyway, we carried out our Valentine's plans anyway. Which was that I gave him a wallet, which is what he needed, and we ate Subway and watched Dead Poet Society, which he had never seen.

I was thinking about that when the whole Valentine subject got brought up. My question is, did he get you anything?

OH MY GOSH I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS YOU, NONE AT ALL. And your statuses routinely crack me up, therefore you got special exemption status (with a few other people). But seriously, I think that everybody else we know in common is gone.

I'm a married girl that you didn't used to be friends with, too. And I made the cut!

And in my own news, Niffler Baby (maybe we'll try this nym out for awhile, see if it works?) got off the bilibed today after 3.5 days on it (which is much better than Dragon Baby's 10 days) which makes me SO happy. And then because I whined about taxes on Facebook, an old ward friend of mine (who, ironically, probably wouldn't have made a Facebook purge, which is why I never purge) who is also an accountant commented and helped me figure out that I really and truly do not have to pay back the First Time Home Buyer's Credit. Which just saved me $8k. So now I have money for blinds! And landscaping! And gardening! And building back up my savings!

Holy cow, today is an excellent day.

Um...not that I remember, but that wasn't a biggie. It was a strange Valentine's. I think he ended up happily marrying someone much better suited to him

This is why I'm terrified of doing a fb purge. I'm convinced that I'll find a job / apartment / husband through some distant connection. (Probably not through the non-Mormon ex-boyfriend of my ex-roommate who is studying animation in Florida. But you never know for sure!)

I might have the inside scoop on something happening that a lot of people have been waiting for, but I can't tell anyone about it, because I don't officially know. (Instead, every time something cool happens in the next year, I'm going to say "Oh that? Yeah, I already knew about it months ago.")

I had a roommate that worked for him. I knew a celebrity by association. ;D

Cheater. ;D

Where do you work again?

I work at a university in Maine, but it's nothing to do with that.

I'm suspecting it's to do with the Board, and I even have guesses as to what it's about, but no idea what the scoop actually is.

If not that, maybe women are getting the priesthood.

Actually, the Catholic Church has finally got around to announcing her sainthood to the rest of the world.

Oh. Well, that makes sense.
