Internet

Well...we bit the bullet and finally paid for internet. I hate the idea of having another bill every month but man, it is pretty sweet to turn on the computer and have something to do. So...this is what I do now. Almost 24 hours since we've had the internet, I've signed up for Netflix, gotten bored with facebook, and watched more tv than any person should. Frankly though, it's just that I haven't watched a whole lot of tv in the past six months. I've discovered I haven't been missing much and also that a lot of television is wildly inappropriate. Even stuff I used to enjoy is obviously bad and I can't believe I ever thought it was funny.

We decided to keep the internet anyway. At least Josh can do his online classes at home now.

Update

Holy cow--I haven't updated this blog in over six months! I meant to finish telling you guys about my camping adventures with Becca but I lost the pictures I took of our Valley of Fire campsite, which is too bad since we took baby Ben with us and it was flippin' adorable. That kid is hilarious in a tent.

I guess I'll just have to update you on everything that's been going on. I got a new job. I moved to a new state. I got married.

That's it. Nothing special, I guess. Oh, I finally got a letter from College of Southern Nevada telling me I'm eligible to graduate this May. That's hilarious because, save for one class I didn't realize I needed and which I took this past July, I've been done and out of CSN since 2007. But that's cool. It'll be nice to graduate from something.

And now, to talk about some REAL news: Josh and I are going to SUPER FAMILY FUN DAY this year! The annual Parshall "vacation" will include all of the old favorites--mystery lunch, pool baseball, book run, and chocolate factory--but with a new twist on the traditional wardrobe. Instead of our regular matching t-shirts, we're going to have a LOGO on our matching t-shirts! We'll be full-on legit this year.

Oh, and I'm officially jealous of Stephen because he's living on the Ronald Reagan, the single coolest ship in the US Navy, and he's in Japan helping after their earthquake. So, so, so jealous. Heather had a baby. Rachel is the self-appointed secretary of the Super Family Fun Day planning committee. Allyse is pregnant. Becca is coming to visit next month. Sarah got some money, so she can finally pay for a few AP classes I didn't even know she was taking. Stuff is happening all around.

Well, that's the update. Maybe next time I won't wait quite so long to write a blog. But then again, I'm pretty good at this procrastination thing...
