Good Riddance

Brady finished his Calculus course a couple of weeks ago. He was taking it Independent Study and it took a long time to get it all finished. Now he is free of math classes for the rest of his life (although he thought that when he finished his AP Calc in High School too). So to commemorate the occasion, we gathered up some friends in Provo Canyon, started a fire, and made a sacrificial offering so that Brady's burdened soul could be free of such devilry. After a quick oration under a full moon and with his staff in hand, Brady cast his math materials in the fire. The integrals and formulas were charred down to the very derivative of the hellfire they were concocted from... ashes, nothing more. After the flames had consumed the damming fodder, the smoke of freedom reached heavenward. It also got into our eyes so we all went home.

I Don't Know What the Title Should Be!!!

After a long and vicious search for a teleportation machine, or an affordable fighter jet, we decided to go with our third option... a Toyota. We went through quite the experience buying our first car that has less than 250,000 miles on it. We found a Prius about a month ago which we were going to buy, but the owners sold it behind our backs, and we have been on the search ever since.
We finally found a good family in Lehi who were selling their 2005 Toyota Camry. We also found a credit union offering auto loans with 2.9% apr until next July. We went in to see if we would qualify for the rate by ourselves and we got a deal! Instead of the 2.9%, we would get 9.5%! Awesome! So we got Momma and Pappy Morris to sign on the car with us. But when the credit union pulled up their credit report, they realized that they did not have the documentation necessary to put them on the car title with us. So they gave us the promotional 2.9% with no cosigner. That's what happens when you pay your tithing.
Now, we both have a car. Melissa is very excited because she gets the Camry and Brady is excited because he doesn't have to keep driving to Orem 2 or 3 times a day. Anywho, we are happy about it. But as Murphy would have it, on the first day Melissa was driving the car, an animal decided to defecate above our new Camry. However, judging by the size of the splattage, we can't tell if it was a bird or Dumbo himself. Needless to say, we washed the car yesterday.
