Day 45 - Valentine Baby

Valentine Baby , originally uploaded by joel.tobey.

I was doing my grocery shopping when I was bombarded with Valentine goodies. I usually don't give in and buy any thing. But this year, I decided that I should give my Baby Mandrake a Valentine balloon. She really likes it. In fact, she likes it so much that she keeps it in her mouth when she wants to play with her other toys. You've gotta love her!

Day 35 - Breakfast For Dinner

Sometimes the best dinner is actually breakfast. I love how my wife makes homemade waffles, biscuits and sausage. Yum. I don't know why have breakfast for dinner works so much better than dinner for breakfast. Unless of course it's frozen pizza.

Day 34 - Fun In Pack N Play

We have a pack-n-play that we use to keep our Baby Mandrake entertained. We have it mainly in the kitchen because we don't want her crawling around on the kitchen floor. Yuck! Anyways, as you can see, she is having a grand time standing, holding to the side and laughing her head off. It's quite fun. We tried getting a video of her, but she got camera shy.

Day 33 - Lost Is Back

The final season of Lost started tonight and it was awesome. I have lots of questions now. How did Juliette know that it worked? Why does nobody ask the name of the main bad dude? It's always, "what are you?" or "You!". Was Richard on that ship we saw when Jacob and "Him" were talking on the beach? Is Jacob now in Sayid's body?

What questions do you have?

Day 32 - Clean Bathroom

Clean Bathroom, originally uploaded by joel.tobey.

It's always nice to clean your bathroom. I think it can be one of the most neglected rooms in the house, yet one of the most important. Looking at the picture, I just realized how dangerous that electrical cord must look like. It goes to my sonic tooth brush. It gives me a very nice clean brush without hurting my gums. Before I used this brush, I would saw my gums off according to the dentist and my bone actually shrunk a bit. Brushing this way won't grow my bone back, but it will help keep it from any more loss.

My sophomore high school teacher often said that he would get his deepest thoughts while on the toilet. He was making a funny because you are in the "thinker" pose while you go. It was funny the first couple of times, but he would keep using it throughout the year. Although his delivery was pretty funny. So...what deep thoughts should I think up next?

Day 31 - Goodbye Old Blog Style

Goodbye Old Blog Style, originally uploaded by joel.tobey.

It's official! My blog now has the new purple themed style. I'm putting this snapshot of the old style in memory of my blog's beginning. It was one of Blogger's generic themes you could choose and it suited me. I wanted something unique though and thought it would be fun to have my own style. I even removed the Blogger header and for all you Firefox type browsers, I have a web icon (it's the purple one with 365 in it). Overall, I really like it and I'm glad that it's finally here.

Day 30 - It's me!

It's me, originally uploaded by joel.tobey.

I decided to take a picture of me right after being accepted in BYU's MBA program. I'm so excited! I'll be starting this fall, going full-time for two years. After that, I'll work for five years or so and then branch off and start my own company in the entertainment industry. I'll at least have a theater and some studios, but I have some ambitious goals. I've told Heritage Makers yesterday and they are happy for me too. I'm getting a lot of support from them, which helps a lot. I still have a lot of work to do there before I start school in the fall.
