HAPPY NEW YEAR'S!

It turns out, thankfully, that the pain in my thumb from the accident is just a sprain, not a fracture.

Merry Christmas everyone. Mine was great (despite the following:).
About two weeks ago, I rear-ended another car. My first accident in fifteen years. Everyone was okay (well almost, I am having some pain in my thumb that is getting worse, so I may have to go to the doctor to see what's up), but I still find it quite scary that on the information exchange between the two people involved I have to put my address. That woman could hunt me down. The other car didn't appear to have any damage, but I thought I would post pictures of the damage to my car.





The frost outlines the damage to the top part of my windshield (which was not done by my head thank goodness-although I don't remember the rock hitting it).

My younger brother is going to have a baby. The first grandchild for my parents in about three years, which is quite some time in our family. They are excited.

Tomorrow is the shortest day of the year. Yay for days getting longer.

Ahhhh, my home teachers gave me a mini gingerbread house for Christmas. How sweet:). I noticed that there was nutrition information given on the bottom. Do people actually eat those things?
They also gave me a copy of The Testaments (which my parents had already given me years ago), and I lied flat-out when they asked if I already have a copy.

A while ago I posted Bono and the Corrs doing a version When the Stars Go Blue and so I decided to check out the original version. It was great.



I also liked his Desire.

This is how I spent some of my time with Jen in California. Yes, I am hooked on the show. It doesn't compete with U2, but I am indeed hooked.

I had a great time in California. Sad to be back.

This has probably already been around, but I saw it on facebook today and thought this little LDS spoof of Twilight pretty good.

I've turned in the last thing I ever need to for my thesis this morning. Double wahoo.
I made a mega yummy acorn squash quesadilla today. Onions, green chilies, squash, cheese-yum, yum.
I am off to visit my friend Jen in California until Wednesday. Wahoo.

My interview for the online university job did not go as well as I hoped. I was really nervous. And whether it was due to my bad interview or the fact that two Hornes already work for my would-have-been future boss, I didn't get the job.
But to help us all forget about it I am including the following hilarious parody of history and the Beatles...
