    Dear BYU Swingkids Livejournal:

    Justin fixed my computer this weekend. It's running better than it has in a long time. Even the DVD drive is quasi-working. I've ripped 1.5 cd's so far, and it hasn't made the weird wheezing noises that it did before. However, I have yet to listen to the mp3's to double-check that they ripped sans-skips.

    Yay for fixed computers!

    so, after ripping two audio cd's, and most of a third, it crapped out on me and did the same thing it always did. [Emoticon not found]

    Last night my friend and I went to the gym and took a hip-hop class. It was hilarious. In case you didn't know, I am white. Therefore, I look rather nerdy when trying to do hip hop. Plus, I was quite uncoordinated last night. It's rather difficult trying to do dance moves in running shoes.

    I got a new computer at work today. It's black. I like it, so far. It has the new Office 2007 on it. It's super different. I think I'm going to hate it for awhile until I learn shortcuts and things.

    I'm going to hear my roomie, M'Shimmy, sing at Zanzibar tonight. She's pretty excited, but kind of insulted that Provo won't come up to hear her sing.

    Awesome deal of the day: nice new shirt ala Shopko for $7.50 (regular price: $30).

    Dear BYU Swingkids Livejournal:

    While searching the internets for mini-golf places around my house, I found this place called "Glow Putt Productions," which is supposed to exist in one of the two malls downtown. I got uber-excited 'cause indoor-glow-in-the-dark-mini-golf is the best thing EVER. However, I was sorely disappointed to discover the number is, in fact, a fax number. And they don't exist in the phone book either. [Emoticon not found] Poop. Maybe I'll hit up the Planetarium this weekend instead.

    Dear BYU Swingkids Livejournal:

    The "inversion" (read: SMOG) is awful. I don't get why Utah doesn't take up Mel Brooks' idea of the ginormous vaccuum in in Spaceballs. Surely one of the many future engineers of America studying in this state can build something big enough to suck all this air into Nevada. And then Utah should follow suit of other states and enact better clean-air laws.

    Dear BYU Swingkids Livejournal

    there are so many things wrong with this story, i don't know where to start

    disclaimer: I am not in any way, shape, or form, a LOTR fanatic. However, I imagine that *most anyone can see the [il]logic in all this.

    What's wrong with this picture?
    1. the dude's making a "Lord of the Rings: the Musical" (does this smack of The Producers or Monty Python to anyone else?)
    2. the Orcs are prancing and twirling on stage.
    3. after spending 12.5 million pounds to produce this debacle, it bombed on it's first night
    4. the director is now going to JRR Tolkein's grave to beg for forgiveness and get the author's "blessing" to re-produce it. (on a creepy factor of 1-10, with 10 being extremely creepy and weird, i give this a 20)
    5. he's spent another 12.5 million pounds to reproduce it, hopefully with less twirling from the bad guys.

    Actually, I was stage manager for a The Hobbit Musical. It was official, approved by Tolkein's estate and everything. It was atrocious.

    And that's a lot more conducive to musicalifying than LotR.
