Whelp, I'm a boring blogger. I feel obligated to write a little something (because I'm sure you've all been losing sleep over my lack of regular posts). Also, I never include exciting photos. So, here's a post...with some photos. (Granted, I never told you that the photos are great or have any relevance to anything).
I Hold the Following Truths to be Self-Evident:
1. I might as well have been born in 762 B.C. (B.C.E. for you history snobs). If you looked at my extreme lack of technological know-how, you would think I was a cave woman that accidentally transported herself to the present. I'd like to change the music on my blog, but I can't quite remember how. I'm still figuring out how to include such widgets and gadgets as "photos." (For some reason, every time I hear the word gidgets or gadgets, I'm reminded of a certain "Barney Bag" song from Barney and Friends--I'm not gonna lie, there's a slight chance that Alicia and I created our own version). I joined the friend-connecting world of Facebook, yet I can't quite figure it out. Is it really good for anything other than spying on people? (Not that I'm a creepy online spy, of course.) Finally, my lack of texting skills is bound to out me as a traitor to my generation. I think a grizzly bear wearing mittens could compose a text message much faster than myself. Slide rule anyone? I just can't get used to all this new-fangled technology.
2. Few things in life are better than cats wearing clothing. Although, family photos with said cats are a tiny bit better.
3. Homemade dioramas are bound to make a comeback in 2009. If you're at all familiar with Duchesne County, you'll definitely recognize this one--I think it's remarkably accurate and life-like.
4. Online Boggle and online Scrabble are the best discoveries I've made so far in 2009 (they're gonna be hard to top).
Anywho, just like this boring rant, my life has entered a semi-boring phase, which is a good thing of course. I'm now working full time, doing a 9-5, contributing to society, call it what you will. I'm able to do a little writing, a little editing, a little accounting (okay, that's kinda the bane of my existence, but who can complain with all the "credit crunches," "mortgage crises," and "Dow Jones drops" going on out there). (Though, I'm almost more worried about society's excessive use of cliches and buzz words--but that's just the nerdy know-it-all speaking.)

Oh Agnes...you never change. I like the Duchesne thing...as long as you pronounce it "do-chez-knee".
I also can't figure out facebook! I really am not a fan- it's pure confusion!
That is funny I just joined facebook! I think it is so lame and very confusing compared to Blogs. I also love the Duchesne diorama my husband was from there so I have to agree very acurate!
I just read through your recent posts and cannot tell you how THRILLED I am to know the story of the compliment stalker! If things didn't work out, there's always the friendly mailman! Love the blog and I had no idea dioramas were ever "out!"
Holy crap, where have you been all my life? I'm so entertained! Your blog is going on my stalker wall...see, not only am I following you on your blog (and soon facebook), I'll also be following you home tonight!! (Dun dun dun...scary music!)
And ps: I am VERY familiar with Duchsene! But I don't know anyone else who has ever even heard of it before...how do you know? It's a great rural secret...I discovered it while temporarily working as a landman doing mineral title research for the oil companies down in the basin...crappy place to have to live, especially if you've seen the sh*@# hole "hotels" we had to live in...but when gas prices pick up again, I highly recommend the job since the pay is stellar!
