Consistency...

I'm merely trying to be consistent-the ability to maintain a particular standard or repeat a particular task with minimal variation.

I have managed to blog sparcely however keep a relatively equal (though long) amount of time between each entry.Perhaps it is my subconscious being taken over by my OCD.

Either way it's been a while.....eh not much has changed i'm still working for Raincheck, at both the sp. fork, and am. fork locations. I have a second job at DownEast Basics. It's a cute but modest clothing store here in utah with a few locations in idaho and nevada perhaps.....anyhow so i spend alot of time working. i'm still going to the gym regularly and i believe it is paying off.

I went to colorado the 6th and was there for the weekend visiting jeff, it was nice we went on a 14 mile bike ride on road bikes( and i haven't ridden a bike since i learned to ride one basically) but it was nice....eventually when i'm rich i'll prob. buy a nice road bike to go out on. We went bowling, jeff has his own bowling ball and bowling shoes......so i guess i shouldn't have been surprised when he tripled my score. But i'm sure it didn't help that my ball was 14 lbs....but it was pink and it matched my outfit wonderfully! he kept telling me i needed a lighter ball, but i just told him "nope i like this one". So yeah i suck at bowling. The water in Aurora, CO is amazing! It tastes better than bottled water (For those of you who don't know me as well as i like to assume people do. i'm a huge water snob, and hate utah water, therefore i only drink bottled water) It was soo amazing i loved it. Also gas prices are like $0.30 cheaper there. I wanted to take some back with me, but i probably wouldn't have made it through security with 12 gallons of gasoline.....

So that was fun, and now i'm back to working all the time. Trying to figure out where i'm gonna live come august, who the heck i'm gonna live with come august, whether or not i really want to go to UVU....eh- alot of things are up in the air.

Oh yeah FYI- Jeff and I broke up, it's cool....he's still my best friend and we're talking still. But just don't ask me about him okay? well hope all is well with everyone else. MUAH!-ingrid

So....it's about time.

So once again i have found that a substantial amount of time has passed without me writing a blog....so here it goes.

Now I will warn you my life is really exciting, and i don't know if you all can digest the details i'm about to share with you....i'll give you an idea of what i'm talking about, by mapping out my daily routine.

8:10 am- unfortunately my alarm goes off (by alarm i mean the sound of a rooster crowing the only tone on my phone that can wake me from my death sleep) I hit snooze

8:20 am- my alarm goes off once more- I hit snooze

8:30 am- my alarm goes off again-I hit snooze hopefully for the last time. lay there for a min.

8:40 am- my eyes snap open cuz i didn't get up at 8:30, and if i don't throw myself together and

leave by 8:45 i will be late for work.

9:00 am- hopefully i clock in at work. and start my oh so eventful day

*Between 9am-6pm I call people to come in and give me money, i write checks to people, listen to music, fill out court papers, message audrey on msn messenger, watch videos on you tube, and think about how much fun i'm having all alone in an office by myself drink cup after cup of water. but the cups are tiny so i have to go from my desk to the water station every 5 minutes or so

6:00 pm- i close everything down and balance, and run out the door jump in my car. you know how in musicals when the characters are exstatic about their lives and flying on majic carpets they sing. This is what i do in my car on the way home from work....elated to be freed back in the real world.

6:30 pm- i pull up to my apartment. i then remember i had no reason to rush home, because i have no plans tonight, cuz i have no friends. So i make myself a salad and then something that tastes good but that is quick. (FYI- i've been eating vegetables lately FYIdos- for those who know me this is huge!)

7:00 pm- i wash my dishes from dinner and put them straight into the dishwasher (it's amazing how that works. i think i need to teach this to my room mates)

7:30 pm- i finally realize there is nothing to do. so i throw on my work out clothes and head to Gold's Gym, and am there for a good 2 hours usually, riding bikes, seeing how fast i can go on the olyptical (approx a million miles an hour i have witnesses that can attest to

this ) pumping some iron, and drinking cold water from the ice cold Gold's water fountain.

10:00 pm- i arrive back home and struggle up the stairs(it's more of a crawl to our apartment. I pull my sopping wet off and jump in the shower for about half an hour.

10:30 pm- if jeff isn't still working i'll talk to him on the phone, or get ready for bed, so that i can talk to him later. I pass out usually around 11. Sleep soundly till i hear the awful crow of a rooster at 8:10 in the morning.

Now.....I know you're all jealous, but not everyone can lead the life of a rockstar! The purpose of this entry despite what you may think was not to make you envy my social agenda, but to shed a little light onto what you would be continually reading if i WERE to update regularly.

So this is usually how my days go...however i did get a break from my kaotic life for a week in March the 11-16 i was in florida with jeff for his dad's 50th birthday i guess i will include some pictures from our trip......it was amazing!

The weekend before florida jeff came to visit, meet the fam and such.....




As you can see he's wearing his sunday best....he's trying to start a trend of a CTR ring on the tie, i think it's dorky, but that's part of why i like him.

Here's the both of us before church the sunday before our Florida trip.

Jeff and I at the Melting Pot for his sister Mindy's surprise birthday gathering....and yes he's wearing a tanktop at the Melting Pot, (side not Jeff never checks his luggage cause then if it gets lost he has nothing to wear...so he always packs as light as he can) So we were all joking at dinner about how he just didn't have room in his luggage to pack anything with sleeves.

This is jeff's dad's house in Ft. Myers Florida.

He lives right on the beach (he's a millionaire)

And their landscaping was as you can see quite beautiful!

Here is the pool and some tables set up for the big party.....

You can see in the back the dock that goes out to the river.

I loved all the palm trees out there.

Here's a shot from the end of the dock, looking up the river.

This is another shot from the end of the dock showing the beach and house.

My superman...if you look closely you can see my reflection in his sunglasses.

Since we were there the 4 days leading up to the party we had the privilege of getting the house and surrounding areas ready for the party. One of Jeff's chores was raking the entire beach.

So here's Jeff working up a sweat under the Florida sun.


I don't have too many pictures fromthe actual party, but this was the bar. Jeff's dad hired 2 bartenders for the night and there were well over 100 people there, so i don't think pictures are really necessary, you can proabably guess about how the party went.

There was a chocolate fountain at the party.....and Mindy caught me

feeding Jeff, I guess his hands were full?

Now that i've done a little show and tell about my trip i'll tell you a fun yet spiritual story about our trip. When Jeff was packing for florida he was going through his drawers as to make sure he didn't forget anything he would need. He started with his top drawer where he keeps his B.O.M's shut it and went on to the next one, but he felt prompted to grab a B.O.M. Jeff didn't really know why especially since we were going there for a party for his dad and alot of worldly things would be going on, and they're all very anti-mormon and give him a hard time about the way his lives his life now that he has embraced the gospel.....but he figured he should prob. listen to the prompting so he pack it along. The second day he pulled it out and showed it to me and told me about his feeling. He then decided to put it in the basket of reading material in the guest bathroom, since an opportunity hadn't presented itself and we would only be there 3 more days. It was the day of the party and Jeff needed some lotion so he went to look for some in the bathroom, and found that Laura his stepmom had thrown the book of mormon in a drawer so no one would see it in HER bathroom (she's very anti) He just figured whatever and left it there, since he still didn't know why he was suppose to bring it. At the party Jeff and i were just sitting off by ourselves at a table just kind of watching everything going on. When he turned to me and pointed out a girl and said we should go talk to her. (we had seen her have a fight with her date earlier, who had desserted her there, and she seemed pretty lonely and upset.) When we went to sit with her, her face lit up. We began making conversation....she admired us for how we were dancing and having fun, yet she knew we hadn't been drinking(we were the only 2 sober people at the party). The discussion quickly turned to the fact we were mormon. We then talked to this girl about the gospel for almost 2 hours. Jeff since he now knew where the B.O.M was hidden when and got it, and the girl seemed very eager to read it. She asked him how many he had brought, and when he told her only one. She said "You brought this for me, I know this book was meant for me" Isn't that awesome. The last place either Jeff or I thought we would find someone searching for the gospel would of been at that party.....and we never would of guessed it would be her. So that was a fun little story. Well I love everyone that reads my blog, and makes comments. And since this we'll prob. be the only blog you'll see for the next month or more (since i seem to be consistently inconsistent with my blogging) , i hope you enjoy it. Perhaps since it's soooo long you can split it up, and treat it as if it were really 3 seperate blogs. Well so long till next time.

Ingrid Louise Mundy= FAILURE

I don't even know why i bother living.....
I can't even write in my blog regularly. Even Aunt Becky is disappointed in me......(*tear)

Well not a whole lot has gone down since my last post. Except for my first day at UVSC my car got booted $50......my second day of school my car got towed from the Walmart parking lot, cuz apparently you can't park there for more than three hours- GAY! $135. My college in Kansas still hadn't sent my transcripts to UVSC so i couldn't get into the english class i needed. my academic advisor is an ugly beast, who didn't help me do anything except for think of violent things...she would go out of town when i needed her, and not call me back, and she has a mustache that she should shave sometime....anyways the above listed sequence of events combined with much more, all relatively frustrating things have led me to drop all of my classes and take yet another semester off from school. i'll be working all this semester, and then i will attend UVSC for a summer semester so i won't be behind where i had planned to be -come the next school year. So i'm a bum and not in school. I'm sure my parents are proud.

Last night when Audge and i went to Smiths i just about knocked out the cashier lady, i was trying to use the self checkout machine which i've never been challenged with however the stupid faulty machine would tell me to put my items in the bag, and after doing so would then tell me i had to put the items back in the bag. the funny thing is that they were in the bag, and i never took them out. the scanner was also only able to read barcodes about 1 in every 97 attempts..... and so while trying to hold my tongue realizing how crazy it would look if i were to vocally demolish a self checkout station. when the cashier lady comes oup and grabs one of my items and throws it back on the scanner and tells me i hadn't rung it up. Yes you heard me she threw it, not very smart considering my current mood. Did she seriously think i was trying to steal something?!?! she couldn't have been nice and just said "oh this didn't seem to ring up" instead she accuses me of purposefully not ringing it up. i wanted to dominate her face with my fist. Well i'm gonna get back to work. i hope this post was sufficient to maybe earn my way back into the blogging community.

Holler....

i've finally succomed to everyone's whining.....and i'm writing a blog.

I had alot of time off this past week, with alex and debbie in town. Infact I picked up Alex and Deb from the airport last thursday and brought them back to my house. they were extremely tired, and so i let them take a nap is my big comfy bed, and i was gonna use this opportunity to get my utah driver's license which i have attempted to go do multiple times now. i'm driving down Bangeter Hwy, in the far left lane when a truck in the lane next to me starts not only merging into my lane but into my freakin vehicle. they clipped me a little bit and continue to stay in my lane as i'm starting to fish tail. the girl in the passenger side of the truck realizes what happened and is staring back at me from her seat......they begin to brake, so i must also so i am now fish tailing on the shoulder trying oh so fervently to not hit the cement wall seperating our lanes from oncoming traffic. i hit the cement wall barely. the truck drives off into the great abyss that is utah. yeah they just about kill me then drive off! infact i got a good look at the girl in the passenger seat.(and if i ever see her ugly face again i'm gonna beat the snot out of her- yes literally) so then i get on my phone and call the police they transfer me atleast 5 times to different dispatchers, and continue to do so until the next dispatcher i'm privileged to speak with is about to transfer me again to someone else(idiots).....i tell them what happened and go on to tell her to forget it(cuz she obviously can't help me), and i didn't get their license number and they are long gone by now, and nobody i'd talked to seems to be capable of doing their job and getting me in touch with the correct officials. so at this point i am super shooken up/pissed off that i must return home once again w/out a utah drivers license. when they are apparently so easy to get considering the driving skills of so many utahns.

anway.....It was fun seeing my kansas girls. We had a big kansas crew lunch at Olive garden friday afternoon, and Audrey graced us with a dance performance after lunch in the olive garden parking lot. i think my friends rather enjoyed that.

I finally got my fafsa filled out and sent in....along with completing my app for UVSC. i'm moving in with Audrey and Amelia the 1st of December which will be a nonstop party, pretty dangerous possibilities. i can't wait to start school in january....... i apologize my blog has not been more amusing. however i promise the next time i write which i'm sure will not be too soon in the near future, but that when i do write it will be good and well worth reading.....

I want to be cool too....

So I find out this morning when i log into my facebook, that my sister heidi has too joined the blogging cult along with the parry's and who knows who else. And well i guess i just want to be cool too, so here i am.

My life isn't all that interesting so i'll prob. be the only one to ever read my blog, but i'll give you an idea of what i'm all about. I work almost everyday till 6, then i usually have plans with my very attractive friends or even more attractive cousin Audrey. I dont' know if you've heard but Audrey and myself are kind of a big deal......we never allow for a dull moment. Most people find riding in the car a normal everyday event, just the means of getting from one place to another. To Audrey and myself it is a dance party. This dance party is complete with ghetto town tunes, and angry rappers, and to top it all off we do the Becky dance. I dare you to tell me your not jealous.

I would just like to leave you with some closing remarks. I was reading Audrey's blog, and would like to clarify something. I was in a butt shaking contest....not a concert- jeez. (two completely different things obviously) I didn't want anyone getting the wrong idea. I also I wanted to add that i was up against a black girl, and i may not have stuck it out for the cash prize....but i still went home a winner. Well peace out family.
