Monkeying Around

Monkeys can be cute sometimes and sometimes they're obnoxious. My mom once worked with a guy who had a monkey. She said the monkey was really annoying because he would always steal her pencils. Heehee. But John found this video of the CUTEST MONKEY IN THE WORLD! It makes me want one. If y'all are wondering what I want for my birthday, this is it. John is going to clean up the poop. I'm just going to play with him. :)

Check it out here (sorry, it wouldn't let me create a link, so you'll have to do the ol' cut and paste): http://www.comcast.net/data/fan/html/popup.html?v=1070792212

Welcome, Spring! It's been so long,
We were beginning to think we'd said something wrong.
We thought maybe you didn't love us anymore,
but, alas, here you are and you've come back for more.
Stick around and stay awhile,
bring the sun and make us smile.
Winter's welcome has long passed.
We're ready for it to leave, and fast!
Screw you, Mother Nature, "It's Spring!" we say.
We're glad Spring's sticking around another day.

Lovin Pandora

I'm sure most of you have heard of and used Pandora, but I have to say it is freaking awesome! I had heard about it before but didn't decide to try it until today. If you don't know what it is, it's an internet radio station. You create an account (for free) and enter the names of all the artists you like. I just went through my iPod and put 'em all in. Pandora will play songs from the artists you list and also songs from different artists that fall under the same genre. For every song, you can mark thumbs up or thumbs down. If you mark thumbs down, it will never play that song again. You can also bookmark artists or songs that you like and can purchase them on iTunes.

If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. It's cool cuz you can log in no matter where you are and get the tunes you like. :) Speaking of great music, I'm excited that Depeche Mode is coming to Utah at the end of August! Sweeeeet! "I Just Can't Get Enough"!

New Job & Yummy Sandwiches

I started my new job last week and am loving it so far. I work at Koan in Park City as the Director of Acquisitions. Basically, I look for movies that need U.S. and/or international distribution and contact the producers to see if they would like us to distribute their film(s) for them. The fun part is that I get to talk to producers and even attend film festivals around the world. I also get to screen movies that come in to see if we'd be willing to distribute them. Some are great and some are NOT so great. :) Brent and Kellie can attest to that! The commute is definitely better than the commute for my last job and I love working in Park City. The only hard part will be trying to refrain from going to the outlet malls every day on my lunch break! 

Johnny and I just found an awesome little sandwich place in American Fork. If you're ever in the area and craving a sandwich to munch on, I recommend going to Jimmy John's over by WalMart. I got the turkey sandwich on french bread (add the provolone and dijon) and it was SO YUMMY! Johnny got the tuna on french bread and it was also delicious. You can order online too, or even go through the drive-thru if you're in a hurry. Then, for dessert, make sure to stop by Smart Cookie by the Century Theaters. Their sugar cookies are to die for and I find myself craving them everyday! It's a good thing they're far enough away that I can't just jump in the car every time the craving hits. Their regular sugar cookies and their cinnamon sugar cookies (think cinnamon bun in the form of a cookie) are SOOOOO GOOD!
