Squirrels

Who do they think they are just flaunting their tree climbing abilities in front of my while I study on the second story of the Hart building? They hang upside down on branches half the size of m pinky finger and make wonder why I don't do that. Well I'll tell ya why! There is probably a hundred and sixty pounds of why! I wonder if any squirrel ever falls? I mean seriously they test the limits all the time. I don't think I have ever seen a squirrel fall. Do they land like cats? Do they disappear into thin air while falling because they've become a disgrace to the whole squirrel family? Who really knows. Not I said the boy!

Now turn on the last song on my blog, Bocelli-time to say goodbye

Chelsea, Kenna, Sluethe and I went to Disneyland over Thanksgiving break and it was glorious. We stopped in on our cousing Stephanie who lives and LA and tramped over Venice beach with the sweet street vendors. That is where I tried my luck at being Superman and developing my own squirrel abilities. Then we proceded to watch the acappela group sing outside of the theater in LA before we watched Mary Poppins.

ON TO DISNEYLAND!!!
Chelsea and Mckenna (I can say this because they don't read my blog) were chicken-ish! It was funny to ride Tower of Terror with them. And Screamin'. And anything else that moved. Chelsea has a God given gift of screaming for long periods of time at high intensities and even higher pitches. Good thing my gnome Sssssssstupert is solid and cannot hear or he would be half deaf. We rode on this sweet old timey car to main street. We ate ice cream. I listened to some violinist in Downtown Disney play the song you are listening to, if it did not end or cut off. So yeah. That's that.

News of today, Dec. 2nd. I rode my bike to class and almost died. I wondered why my face was hurting so bad. And my lungs were killing me too. Well, it turns out that it was -2 degrees outside.... Then tonight at my Orchestra rehearsal I met Merrill Jensen. He is a composer that came to conduct one of the pieces we are playing that he wrote. He wrote all of the music for the Church movies like Testament, and Legacy, not singles ward or other non-sensical mormon movies.

HAHAHAHA Oh squirrels. They make me smile and said "cutie!!" in a high pitched voice every time is see them. I should tell you about the time I went "squirrel fishing" if I already haven't.

Um, SO jealous you went to DL AND saw Marry Poppins! Tis one of my favorite places. It's "The Happiest Place on Earth" so it's ok for Chelsea and Mckenna to act child-ish. :) And screaming on rides is the best part! It makes it that much more fun! Oh gosh I miss that place.

Oh, and you're crazy from riding your bike. I would never ride in these temperatures...maybe.
