Nuggets the Fish

So we all know that I have been trying to wear down Jane on getting some sort of furry animal, e.g., a cat or a dog. That is far from happening but we are taking the necessary steps to get there. For an object lesson in a presentation I had to purchase two goldfish. The presentation went fine but we were left as caretakers of the two fish. We decided to name them Denver and Nuggets. (I have no connection to Denver, or the Denver Nuggets team, just thought it was funny.) However Denver didn't make it more than two days. Nuggets on the other hand is still going strong. He/She (do we really know how to determine that on goldfish?) is somewhat "Nemo-ish" in that Nuggets has an interesting back fin. Instead of dividing into two parts like this > Nuggets only has the top half of that so it looks more like this \. Maybe this is why Nuggets is still alive, he/she is a fighter! We are getting attached so hopefully Nuggets makes it a while. Oh, and yes Nuggets lives in an old water pitcher because we didn't have a fish bowl, and we are too cheap to buy one. Nuggets seems content with that.

In other news, I recently took a trip to San Diego to cover the BYU-SDSU football game. It was alot of fun to sit in the press box and have the full media experience. I was able to go and interview players afterwards and wrote the game recap for the BYU paper, here is the link.
I also got to hang out with my best friend Josh and meet his lady friend. Of course there was surfing and In-N-Out involved as usual. Sorry to Tami that I didn't make it to Temecula to the party or whatever it was, and that I also neglected Jo and Mark for the most part as well...the ocean and college football was the first priority...But we will see all of you at Christmas for a raging party and a half.
