numero uno......( that means number one)



here i am writing a blog. not even my family blog (an epic that failed after the first entry) but this is MY blog. me. jennifer is starting a blog. so before i get into this, i have to first name of my thank you list......thank you to janessa who tried so diligently to get me started out in indiana. thank you to jamie who, after weeks of brainwashing convinced me that blogging is not just for married people and their own family, thank you to the video cameras that filmed my wakeboarding and music video because now i finally have something i WANT to share on a blog. (somehow in your head make that sentence not come out as me being vain please :) and thank you to the hot arizona heat that has forced me to stay inside, leaving me more time to do a blog.....this will be fun.
in all reverence i feel i should start my first story of my blogging extravagana with a tribute to walmart. me and jamie went there last night to get me food for next week when i am being abandoned while everyone but me goes to cali :( but its alright, they offered, but i have to stay and work. so anyways, i learned many important secrets so undisclosed that i will ONLY share with few people.....or anyone who reads this blog i suppose. lesson #1. walmart will price check ANYTHING! amazing, huh? #2. when approaching a check out stand with price check items, opt for the nerdy young boys who dont care that it takes more time. this saves guilty feeling and unwanted behavior of our friendly walmart associates. #3. frozen burritos are 39 cents people!! 39CENTS! you could get a job that only pays like $4 an hour to make it through college now!! #4. when choosing a cantalope the best ones are the ones that are squishy at the top on that green spot where it's picked (i guess cantalopes dont grow on trees. OMG ANNNND did you know that baby carrots arent really BABY CARROTS! no. not an offspring of big carrots. they are actually just the big carrots cut up and they use the shavings from them to put in premade salads!! conspiracies i tell you!) #5. it doesnt matter if you look stupid climbing in the cantalope box to get down to the bottom to squish all of them, i mean if going in your pajama pants doesnt draw enough attention now it is legal to actually position your body INSIDE the crate. who woulda thought?
in other news, today was my second day of babysitting and i love it. the kids are great, its easy money. so that will be a good job. its getting rough waking up at 7 though. especially now since me and jamie have discovered the knife show at 11:00 on weekday nights. but it is worth it i tell you! oh man, this knife show is better than going to a hillbilly family reunion. actually they probably host the same event there as well. but this knife show has got this man with the funniest accent and southern drawl i have ever witnessed hearing. this guy is like trying to get people to call in and buy these knifes off the t.v. and oh man, to demonstrate how sharp it really is this man doesnt get out the steel bars or the aluminum pop cans, no no no that would be too cliche. this man brings out paper. PAPER. and shows off how sharp the amazing blade is by cutting paper. omg that show has got a riduculus amount of insane hillariousness going on, i tell you what!
so im staying out here in Arizona until after labor day then i am going up to BYU-I which i am exited about. but i have absolutely loved being here. i tell you what, this summer has been the most productive, learning experience, walmart tripping (and i dont mean that in a sense of altered mind from substance use, because no there is no drug called walmart.....but it is addicting, but i am just saying tripping in the root form of trip ie to take a trip. just so that is cleared up for those reading this :) summer i have ever experienced! and i am sure that i will be back next week to update,inform, and ramble. until then here's a thought to keep you through the week.....if the cheese smells bad, DONT EAT IT!! just ask jayson. good thing i am here now to replace jamie's exellent sense of smell (for those who cant hear the sarcasm in my writing, please let me make it known at this point.)

Janessa said...

Yay!!! Jennifer's in! We should have some sort of "welcome to the land of blog" party while I'm there. Any excuse for a party, right?! You are a natural-born-to-blog kind of girl. I was cracking up as I read your post. You are so funny and random. I love it! That music video rocked my socks! Again totally halirous and so random. Very Jennifer. I'm glad you're having a blast down there. I miss you a TON!!! I can't wait to see you soon. Oh, nice wakeboarding! I think you actually got up! :):)

Hey Jennifer I love your blog! It looks like you are having fun your last summer before college. Funny thing is...my sister talked me into a blog too a couple of weeks ago while I was visiting her in California.

Janessa said...

Is that last comment from the Marina Orme? Does this mean that there are other family members out there with a blog that we don't know about? If anybody out there has info on this pass it along! It would be a fun way to keep up with folks. (5 comments now Jennifer! You're so cool!!!)
