Basement

I am so excited for the basement! It is coming along so great!!!

They have done lots of framing for the kitchen (including my walk in pantry) The laundry room is also framed.

The Bedroom's are basically framed, the office and the bathroom (I believe we are getting a jetted tub) We also will have a gas fireplace in the living room because they would have had to buy another furnace to heat the whole basement so instead they decided to do a fireplace, which is awesome! The vents for the heat/ac are all in I think the electrician is going to be starting this week or the beginning of next week and run all the power and cables and stuff, I think we are still looking for a plummer, but I am not sure.

In talking to one of the guys working on it he said its probably about a month away from being done!!! YEAH!!!!
I am so excited!

When its finished we will have a party! (I really like throwing parties, if you haven't all noticed that already...)

I have some pictures, but I forgot them today, so I will put them on later, maybe tonight!

Getting ahead...

I swear its impossible to get ahead, or even caught up sometimes. I all aspects of life. It is so frustrating...

I try not to complain - so that is all I will say...

Amazing Night!!!

So last night was the Muse concert and it was awesome!!!
I didn't think they'd let us bring in a camera so we didn't bring ours, and I totally wish we had, they did allow cameras (although most were camera phones)... So the pictures aren't from last night, but whatever.
The opening bands deserve some note here, the first was Immigrant - the keyboard player looked like he was Amish... They were loud and needed to shower, but pretty good.


The second band though holy crap, you will never guess who it was... Juliette and the Licks. Holy crap, she went from this in Christmas Vacation, and was the Other Sister and has played some great roles to being an insane spandex-kneepad wearing spaz of a "rock star"
Although she was in white last night, this is a pretty good example...
Oh, it was so funny. I was laughing so hard.
And this is how she dances... Flailing about... Its weird.

Now for the real band.

Muse

The lead Singer Matthew Bellamy is a remarkable musician, he plays many different guitars and is an amazing pianist, he could be a concert pianist alone and be so successful. One of his guitars was so cool, it lit up and the square where the lights were was another way to play it, it did like sound effects, there were times he even would play it with his mouth, it doesn't make much sense when I say it like that but it was so so cool!

They had awesome lighting effect and smoke and video and all kinds of cool stuff!

So for those who don't know who this band is and want to find a new band. Their genre is NewProg - New Progressive Rock. They are kind of loud (especially in person) but have some amazing songs!

It was great fun - my ears are still ringing and my voice is still scratchy, but worth it!

Pharmacy Tech in Training

Its official, I am an intern. I started working in the Smith's Pharmacy last night. It was a bit overwhelming but lots of fun. I got to ring people up at the window and the drive up. I watched the other girls speed through entering prescriptions into the computer. I hope I can do it as fast someday... I got my white Jacket and everything. Its pretty cool to see it all in action.

I am so tired from it, I still work at Allstate from 9-3 and then I work from 4-9 at the pharmacy. So 12 hours, with a 35 minute commute to Allstate and then back to Herriman, so I spend over an hour in the car to get to and from work so I had like 20 minutes to eat lunch/dinner before going to work at the pharmacy.

It will probably be a long 180 hours of interning... Probably through November if not into December.
