Triple Digits, Update, and Inception

Today is the 100th day since Brandon and I have been married :) Now, before anyone thinks I am a dork and I count the days on a calendar I don't. While we were engaged I downloaded a Widget for my computer counting down until I got married. After we got married the counter just started counting the days since we got married. I must say the first 100 days went by very quickly, but we are very happy. On this momentous occasion I thought I would give an update on our lives:

Brandon: He is working at Panda Express still and loves it. He is actually going to be getting a promotion in October to be Lead Counter Worker. The way he describes it is the hierarchy of Panda Express is regular employee, lead counter worker, assistant manager, manager, regional manager, vice-president, and then president. So he says he is almost there of becoming the president of Panda Express. He also got a new calling in our ward and he is the ward clerk of memberships. As of right now we aren't sure if this means we can't do nursery anymore. So far we haven't been released so we are hoping we can because we do like it.

Dana (me): I am boring and there isn't anything new. I'll be starting school next week and this will be my first semester in college since I haven't worked at the newspaper. I'm wondering how that is going to be. I am guessing I can easily get a 4.0 because I will have a lot of free time. I will still be a janitor but I will do that in the mornings before classes. I will also continue to substitute teach which I do love to do.

Us: Like I said we still enjoy being married and we are seven thank you notes away from being done with them! I feel bad that it took us three months, but I am happy we got it done before school starting. We'll be finishing those up today and sending them out.

Another thing is we are saving up for a house and a baby. We are NOT planning on getting a house or having kids for a few more years but we decided it would be wise to start saving now. We are actually going to do CDs too for these so interest on it can go quickly and we won't be tempted to spend it.

The final thing is we are coming up Labor Day weekend! We are planning on coming up Friday evening or Saturday morning (it just depends on his work schedule). Saturday we are planning on spending time with my family and Sunday we are spending time with Brandon's family, but we will be coming back to Orem that night. We are then leaving Monday morning. We are excited to come up because we have missed our family.

Finally, on Saturday we went and saw Inception! I was very excited because I had been wanting to see it since the first time I saw a preview for it which I think was like a year ago. I'm pretty sure it is the best movie ever and if not that it is definitely the best Christopher Nolan movie. I am not going to go into any of my theories on it because for people who haven't seen it I don't want to ruin it. However, I am going to post this video about the music for Inception it doesn't give anything away but I think it is really cool:


So basically the music they use for the kicker is a countdown. Cool huh?

  1. And the name of the song is I do not regret anything, interesting. I can hardly wait for you to come. I know you have lots of family, but let's plan to do something. I can do a family thing or just something for the three of us. Let me know.
