Just Another Post

It's been a while, so I'm just giving you the bullet point version of blogging.

Things that I don't think I've blogged about yet:

• I love my family!
• I'm on Twitter! (@gkthurston)
• Toddler Thor apparently wants to be Iron Man (see video)
• I love college football!  
• I made this thing
• I'm terrible at blogging
• Grad school is hard
• Mathematica is difficult for me to figure out, so I use Matlab instead
• My writing projects die because I don't actually have time for them
• I'm reading the Book of Mormon (again!)
• My goal is to finish before next General Conference
• I need to work on writing in my journal
• This is another of my goals from General Conference
• Baseball is an acceptable alternative to college football (saving my CFB offseason)



My first (and only so far) MLB game. Thanks Elli and Tom!

• New apartment
• Double the square footage
• Double the bathrooms
• Double the curtains
• Double the fun!
• New baby (soon!)
• It also means I can't wait for Christmas/my birthday because my mommy will come visit me and I like snow.
• I like tutoring more than research.  A lot more.  Makes for difficult life choices ahead.
• And $40/hr. isn't bad either.
• My phone finally died.  Saving up for a new one.
• A cracked screen eventually (4 months later) lead to a phone on a continuous power up/down cycle, with no way to stop it, besides letting the battery die.
• Only $200 to replace it though (no phone insurance, expensive phone, should have gotten a case, blah, blah, blah.  I KNOW!)
• Other stuff probably happened, but I don't remember off the top of my head.

Well, hopefully that was somewhat interesting to someone in the universe.  The Church is true, life is good.  Time to get back to work.  Go team!
