Mr. Reese

 There's another new member of my parents family, Mr. Reese, named after the man from Person of Interest if you've ever seen that show. Mr. Reese wasn't always named Mr. Reese. Previously he was named Mikey. He also didn't start out with my family. 

See, Mr. Reese was previously adopted by my sister, off Craigslist. She hid him in her dorm room. Since some dorms barely allow fish, much less cats, Mr. Reese ended up at my parents house. My parents have never had a cat before, since my mom is allergic. They've always had dogs. Yet, here Mr. Reese is. 
Thankfully, I don't have to live in the house while everyone adjusts to his presence. It's been rough from what I've heard. Remi has been simultaneously excited and scared of him. She tries all day long to sniff him, but he will have none of that. The first time I saw Mr. Reese, he was swatting Remi in the face. I was actually quite impressed by his speed, and mad at him for hitting the dog. The last time I visited, Mr. Reese would let Remi sniff him once, but if she kept trying she'd get swatted again. Mr. Reese has taken up sitting in Remi's favorite spot on the couch, which she doesn't like as seen above. 
He also loves my dad, which is pretty funny. 

When he was first here, my sister let Mr. Reese outside, not thinking that he would hop the fence. He did, and was gone all day. We were all pretty sure that he was gone. Surprisingly he came home though at 9:30 and scratched on the door. He has to be pretty smart, since  he hadn't even been at my parents house for a day. 
I'm allergic to Mr. Reese, which stinks since I like visiting my parents house, and I don't want to make my mom vacuum every time I come over. Mr. Reese and Remi follow me around when I visit, and I had to stop this fight from happening. Every time Mr. Reese hisses I jump, since I'm not used to that noise.

It's funny growing up with dogs and then watching a cat. He has such an attitude and thinks he rules the place. He loves to snuggle though, but gets mad if you mess up his hair. Mr. Reese is still growing on me. I honestly can not believe that my parents have a cat. That was just an impossibility, yet here it is. Oh, life.

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...

Book of Mormon Musical?

Well, it's here in Denver. Kind of hard not to notice it with all the signs. The Book of Mormon Musical. I have very mixed feeling about this. I know that in the grand scheme of the universe, this musical shouldn't bother me so much. But it really, really does. The Book of Mormon is something very near and dear to my heart. And I know that people make fun of the LDS church on an hourly basis. I've heard all the jokes. Not a big deal. Plus, I'm blonde. I can take a joke. But this musical really disturbs me. I listened to the songs when they were released, thinking oh, I'm gonna be one of those cool people who fights for this play. But then I really started listening to the words. And they bothered me. A lot. Saying that missionaries who are out in the field make up things on the spot, like having sex with frogs will get rid of aids, it bugged me. I don't even want to talk about some of the other songs. I heard them and felt, just not right. I was comforted by t...

I'm not going to waste time talking about why I have a blog or how this is my first new blog post, because I like to have faith in the human race and the fact that they can read and can interpret these things on there own. I mean, there aren't any posts under this one so obviously this is my first new post. And having a blog is not a mandatory thing to live so one could hypothetically conclude that this is for fun. That is hypothetically speaking of course. I just used 89 words explaining why I didn't need to explain something. I hope I counted that right. Anyways.  Three years ago today on a rainy day I remember being in a basement with a bunch of little people and adults for a scout thing. And I remember them talking about how a certain friend of mine was going to be a senior and how that's so crazy. I was just going to be a freshman at the time and thought I was the coolest thing since duct tape. (Sorry sliced bread, duct tape is waay cooler.) Now that friend is get...
