Me and My Enemy

Kids, this is what we call "frightening:"

Okay, so I actually did something over the weekend besides work for 8 hours and vegetate on the couch. 

It involved attempting to make a snow "sea" monster.
First of all, I have never liked the snow. But since I try to be a peaceable person, I went to my enemy and tried to play with it. The snow never got the message of a possible peace treaty, so it continued to hate on me.  As we attempted to build a body of our monster, we found that the snow just wouldn't stick together. After realizing that all the spit in our combined three mouths would not produce enough water to make 40+ feet of snow stick together, we gave up on the idea of making it look like it was going in and out of the snow and just settled for a snake body. We split the body into three sections and each worked on our section. The next hour went something like this:
  1. Form a rudimentary trail with feet.
  2. Bend over and grab snow from each side.
  3. Hopelessly try to pack snow together.
  4. When snow doesn't pack together, stand and stare at your roommates working.
  5. After eyes nearly freeze open, bend down and try to pack snow again.
  6. Complain about feet hurting.
  7. Complain about legs freezing.
  8. Complain about everything else.
  9. Imagine yourself in a reality show entitled "Snow Sculpture Battle" in which you are a finalist and you press on in bad conditions to make a beautiful, dazzling snow sculpture that wins you $10,000 (I'm not kidding about this one...).
  10. Move onto the next foot of body and repeat steps 2-10.
Okay so I'm thinking that may have been just me, but that's how it went down on my 20 or so feet of tail. After we finished the monster, we went back to the apartment and just stripped down in the front room. It would've been a good time for a creeper stalker to come by, really. My legs were bright red and I didn't warm up for an hour or two, which doesn't make sense to me because I have PLENTY of blubber that's supposed to be keeping me warm.
You fail, leg fat.






You really can't see the whole body, but this is only 1/3 or so of it. 
This picture is titled "Sarah is too lazy to even try 
to edit or make it look good."






Next time I will just vegetate on the couch.


Now let's play a game called


Guess that Beverage!


Can you guess this beverage?

If you guessed blueberry anything, imagine me making a really loud buzzer noise and then mocking you.

This beverage is Utah State blue hot chocolate. Jenna so lovingly let us have a mug each, and I must say that it is an entertaining drink to, well, drink.

No, the bookstore does not sell it. They should though.


I walked by this after Zumba today was quite impressed. No, not at the "fry" statue, as most Aggies lovingly call it, but the burger snow sculpture right beside it. I know this picture isn't terribly impressive, but the burger sculpture is really big. It even has tinges of red where the "meat" is. 

I'm impressed. 
You should be as well.

Also, any guesses at what the rectangular object would be? My only thought was a cube of butter or a thing of fry sauce. The butter doesn't make sense though, so if you have any other thoughts...

Way to make friends with the snow. :) Living in Logan it's a friendship that is necessary--kind of a be my friend or die thing. :) That is an epic monster though, love.
