Idaho and Love Sac Lypo

This last weekend my mom called Friday morning and said she was going to Idaho to see my grandma and cousins and asked if I wanted to come. I LOVE spur of the moment things, and I haven't seen my grandma for awhile so I jumped on the opportunity. We had so much fun! Of course, anything is fun with my mom and grandma. I also got to see some cousins and aunts that I haven't seen in over 10 years. So we drove to Boise and then back and then sat around outside on the porch (like old folks). I scored about 10 dresses from my grandma...dresses she wore 30-40 years ago. They all fit me and I think they're all beautiful! When I got back to my parents house I used mom's sewing machine to alter some of the dresses so they are a little modernized. What a find! I think it is so special that I have my grandmother's dresses.

When I got back to my apartment in Provo my roommates and I and our friend Drew did lypo on my love sac. It was stuffed too much so we took out some of the stuffing. The stuffing is made up of hundreds of little cut up pieces of foam. We had two garbage bags full of stuffing and needed something to do with it, so we got creative. We doorbell ditched some of our friends and threw it at them, and we taped garbage bags across their doors and then put the stuffing in between the bags and the door so it opened up on them when they answered the door.

We got to my friend's apartment to pull our prank but accidentally rang the door bell before we had thrown the stuffing between the door and the bags. So we had to run and hide a little early. My friends ran down the stairs to a good hiding place but I ran upstairs which only lead to more apartments. One of the doors was opened and this boy was standing at the door looking at me funny. I just told him to 'shh' and then waited while he continued to look at me like I was retarded.

Luckily the kid who answered the door just said, "thanks guys" and then shut the door without removing the garbage bag wall we had made (ha ha sucker!). So we went back and poured our stuffing. On our way down the stairs I ran into one of the boys that lives there. I was hoping he wouldn't remember me because we had only met twice. Well I made a suspicious face when he walked passed me and as soon as he saw his door he turned around and said (real whiney like) "oh c'mon Abby!" Apparently he does remember me. It was really funny, although he laughed at us for doing it at 11:30 pm when people are still awake instead of 3:00 am when no one would catch us. Yeah right, like I'm going to wake up at 3:00 am.

So it was an eventful weekend and I think we may have started a war.

Oh, I got a job!! I'm working as a secretary at the Women's Research Institute here on campus at BYU. I start this afternoon so I don't know much about it yet. I'm so grateful to have found a job so quickly. The only problem is it is only part time for the summer and I kind of need a full time job this summer. If anyone knows of a place hiring part time just for the summer, let me know.
