The ducks unfroze!

So the weather has slowly, and I mean very slowly, warming up and today we noticed in the field behind our apartment that there are ducks hanging out in the melted snow puddles. I don't know where they came from but I think they were frozen under the many feet of snow. I'm glad to see that they have come back to life. Anyway, this past weekend was pretty good, we went to a John Schmitt concert, well more like I dragged steve to it. I think he enjoyed parts of it, but it went longer than normal so he was getting pretty antsy towards the end. At one point in the concert John asked if anyone knew jazz piano. There was an awkward silence and Steve decided that was the time he needed to get up and go to the bathroom. So when he got up to walk out John called him out thinking he was going up to play with him. Of course Steve made a joke about needing to go to the bathroom and everyone thought that was hilarious. I learned after that Steve planned to do that! Anyway, like I said before the weather is warming up to be in the 40's which isn't exactly warm compared to California, but for us it's a lot better then below freezing. But of course the warm weather also brought the wind so we're still stuck inside but we're counting down the days until the semester is over and we can go outside.

Saturday Blues

So it's Saturday here in Rexburg and we have nothing to do! Its overcast and lightly snowing with wind so doing anything outside is impossible. And we're poor so going out to spend money is out too. It might be fun to go out and look around at stuff if there were places to go, but the mall in Idaho Falls is pretty pathetic so its no fun. Anyway, if anyone can think of fun things to do when its snowing and freezing outside along with being in an isolated rural area, please let me know. I'll be here avoiding housework and homework because it's the weekend where people go out and do things!!!
