Staying Put and Geeking Out

So many of you probably heard the rumor we might be moving to Montana...but turns out we're staying put in Utah.  Tracy did get offered a promotion there - but the offer just wasn't enough to justify leaving, especially since I have a job I like at the Church History Library - at least for the moment.  Though it's been a tough few months trying to manage three jobs I only have two more weeks of teaching and while I'll miss the interaction with students, especially the ones at Salt Lake Community College I'm looking forward to digging into some serious writing time.

Oh, and just so you don't think I'm losing my charming fangirl nature this video with the actor from Arrow had me geeking out...now if we could only convince Henry Cavill to develop X-Ray vision, we'd have it covered.

Oatmeal, Jeans, and Captain America

So I don't have it in me to actually post anything serious but here's some random stuff from this week:

-Bought ridiculously healthy/fancy instant oatmeal yesterday (organic with blueberries and flax seed) in the vain hope that I might actually eat it for breakfast - this morning I did, and it actually tasted pretty decent.  Surprisingly the flax seed's crunch made me like the texture a lot better.

-Broke down and ordered some clothes online (after looking for jeans in three separate stores, seriously plus size skinny jeans - who thinks this is a good idea?) and I actually liked all three things I ordered when they got here.  And the really good news, the jeans are a little big, I'll have to go down a size if I order them again.

-Tracy and I went and saw the new Captain America movie on Friday night and I LOVED it.  I sort of feel like Captain America and Superman have a similar vibe, so this is not surprising.  There were so many things I liked - but especially the fact that they actually had a female character in a superhero movie who didn't have to be "the girl."  Black Widow is kind of awesome. 

-Oh, and HAPPY EASTER everybody!
