How bout them Utes!!

Oh my freaking gosh! Thursday night the University of Utah played Oregon State. To be quite honest, I didn't know anything about Oregon State's football team, so I thought we would kick some ass. Boy was I wrong! OS scores first with a field goal, ok we can get that back. Then the U ties it with field goal. Hmm, come on Utes. Oh then our quarterback throws an interception that gets returned for a touch down, IDIOT! I couldn't believe it! At half time the U was winning 20-15, good thing OS kicker missed a point after and two tries for 2 point conversions. Then in the beginning of the third quarter OS came back and scored a touch down, missing the point after again so OS was winning 21-20. Crap, come on Utes! With just less than 2:30 mins left of the game, OS scores another touch down, WTF! Disappointment across the stadium, people started filing out. Then with 1:48 left of the game my roommate Jessica turns to me asking if I was ready to go, but I just sat there like we can't leave yet telling her we will come back and she asks if I had been watching the same game. So we stay, and with 1:29 left of the game, the U scores a touch down! Then we try for a 2 point conversion, pass interference, try again and we get it!!! Tied at 28!! Crowd screaming and jumping for joy!! Jessica turns to me and says, "Nice call." Wow, is this really happening?! The U kicks off, thinking they would kick an onside kick, but no, OS gets it and starts to run, oh no. Long story short, the U gets it back, makes some awesome, and well needed, catches to get within field goal range, then with 2 seconds, yes seconds, left we kick a field goal and win 31-28, crowd rushes the field. What a game!! The End

R.I.P. Caesar

The time has come to put our dog Caesar down. He has been a part of our family for 16 years! It was so hard, but needed to be done. He couldn't see, hear, walk, control his bladder, you could see he was in pain, it was so sad. He is much happier now. We will miss you dearly Caesar Howard Rhodes.

Trying to get better at this blog thing...

Some people think I would be all over this "blog" thing being technologically savvy and all, but I am having a hard time keeping it up. It's probably because I am pretty boring and don't have a lot to blog about. I work and come home to watch tv, that's about it. Rough life I know. I think blogging is perfect for people that are married and/or have children to stay in touch with family and friends, but since I don't have that "special someone" or any children yet, I don't feel like I have a lot to update people on. I haven't even gone on any vacations lately to tell you all about. I will try to figure out more of what to write about since work has started to get a little easier allowing me to enjoy nights and weekends more.

Work has taken over....

So when I graduated I was so excited to work 8 hours a day then come home and have nothing to do nights and weekends, except play of course! Boy was I wrong!! I am working 10 hours a day PLUS weekends!! What happened to the life where I go to work, do my work, then come home to NO work?? One complaint about being on salary. I have been working on this one project for 2 months now and can't seem to solve it. I am the worst engineer ever!!!!! I enjoy what I do, I just don't have the experience yet to know what I'm doing. Hopefully I will get it one day....

I'm ALIVE!!

Wow, what have I been up to? Not posting anything on my blog obviously! Well, after graduation I started working full time, went to 3 weddings (Sean's in California, Wendy's here in Utah, and Jana's in Las Vegas), went to the POISON concert, bought a new car and a few other "necessities" for the house. I'm enjoying spending money and coming home to watch tv and NO homework! Wow, this is the life!

College Graduate

I can't believe I am FINALLY done! I'm so excited! I finished my last finals today, so now it's time to sit back and relax until Monday when I start working full time. Graduation is officially in 2 days, but classes and finals are over, no more school work! This seemed so far away 6 years ago when I started college, well that is a long time that is now here. YEAH!!
