Weekend
I had a great weekend. I went to go visit my little brother, Mr. Pibb, in the little town where we grew up. Driving there was an adventure in itself. I spent the last 40 miles in a solid wall of fog. I only dared to go 30 mph. But I made it there safely.
Sunday at church was nothing short of awesome. Through various circumstances, there were many people there that I had not seen since my teenage years.
- My old bishop, who had moved away to California, was there visiting his son for Christmas.
- Nicole just returned from her mission and gave a wonderful homecoming talk. She and her sister Erica performed an amazing acapella duet. Both the girls and the duet were breathtaking. Nicole played a key role in helping Mrs. Pibb join the Church, so even though her family was awesome before, they are even more awesome now.
- Their older sister Danielle was also there to welcome Nicole home. I was better friends with Danielle than the other two because she is closer to my age. (When you’re 18 you’re not too concerned with 12 year olds or 8 year olds. But you may eventually notice a 15 year old, especially if she’s as cool as Danielle.) I hadn’t seen her in 10 years. She is so fun to talk to with the way she buzzes with excitement and energy, and her wonderful laugh always loaded and ready to go.
- My good friend Verny has moved her records back to our “home ward” (I don’t really like using that term.) so I was able to see her, and will get to see her more often when I go back to visit again – whenever that may be. It seems I only get to see her in person once or twice a year.
I was able to spend a lot of quality time with my 18 month old niece, Baby Pibb. By the end of the weekend she would run up to me and grab my legs. She may have even said my name a couple times. She is quite possibly the most beautiful little girl ever.
And to top it off, I was finally able to pick up my New Hotness. She’s waiting to get fully tweaked and outfitted, and hoping to take her maiden voyage soon.
I hope you all had a weekend as good as mine.

Turn Me Up
This video does a great job of showing the difference between a good mastering job and a poor (and all too common) mastering job.

Pacifier
Ok, so I haven't posted for a whole month. Waah waah; quit your crying. I know you have all been on the edge of your respective seats waiting with baited breath for me to post something. I know you, my adoring fans, are all just dying to hear more about my fascinating life. I know you ache to read my thoughts about some band you have never heard of. I hear your internal pleas for me to submit something - anything - so that your hunger may be satisfied and so you can fill that void in your soul that grows so cold when I am not around.
Well too bad.
I haven't felt inspired to write anything and there isn't much going on. … Well that's not true; there are plenty of things going on, but nothing that is blogworthy.
I just hope these words will tide you over until there is something to write about. Until then you will just have to be content with rereading my previous posts and clutching the pictures of me you keep on your nightstand and in the locket around your neck.
