What Is Wrong With Me?

I need to finish preparing my Relief Society lesson to be given in 10 hours but I really want to post about how happy I am that Amir Sadollah won the Ultimate Fighter finale tonight. CB Dolloway is so arrogant, and Amir is just so cool and down to Earth and funny and cute. And what is wrong with me that I like to watch Ultimate Fighting and know all about the UFC? My dad and I used to occasionally rent these fights on VHS back in the day. It has changed a lot since then. And as I sit on the couch, completely tense and biting my nails as two guys smash eachothers' faces in, I wonder, what is it that keeps me glued here? why am I watching? I don't know. We all have our vices. This is mine (yes, the ONLY one, so don't even start).

Way to go Amir!!!

I am biting my nails just looking at your pictures and now he is my new vice.

haha! Teresa, I am so glad you are in the blogging world and come to visit my blog because you always make me laugh and now we can laugh more often, unlike the days when we read e-mails while waiting for our kids to come home from haiti and mostly just wanted to curse all the live long day.

ok. seriously? :) i never would have pictured you into this. cracks me up! :)

Jana said...

For the first time in my bloggerness, I am left speechless. Is there any tie-in to a RS lesson here? Because I can tie in all my vices somehow - all for the sake of justification.

Really, fights? I'm going to have to think about this for a while to see what I think. Fights?

Yah, I didn't even know this about you . . . though I can picture Megs might enjoy to bite nails and scream at appropriate intervals watching such a thing with you. I think I could never uncover my eyes once, but I do like to buy the occasional US magazine, so who's worse now? Vanity and immorality or blood and gore.

tia ~ my rs lesson was based on elder oaks talk 'testimony' from last gc. of course we learned that we gain our testimonies through the spirit. you don't feel the spirit when you watch the ufc. so, that is the tie in. it is rough having such a vice.

Salty Incisor said...

whoa I had no idea that you had such a telestial vice!!! ha ha just kidding. I can see you biting your nails like crazy though!

Hey love,
I just learned something new about you! I never would have guessed that you enjoyed watching fights. But perhaps you did not know that I have a total thing for Pirates... and Halis occasionally indulges my fantasies :) He even got the infamous heart tatoo with my name on it. We told Isaac that
Daddy used to be a pirate and that Mommy used to be a mermaid ... and that is how we fell in love. We tell a whole story about it ... and he loves it :) Anyway, my cousin is not back from Kaz yet and I am getting worried. The court there is giving them a hard time and I think they may be there for a while. Ugh.

Well, love you lots!

Didn't know you had it in you Perlita. While my image of you is slightly tarnished, the other part of me is like "You go girl & cheer for fighting!" Total sweetness.

I am only commenting again because I am trying to decide if I should use this picture of just me on my comments (since it really is just me commenting) or go back to the happy pic of me and mike that I do love. What do you say?

Nancy said...

Hmmm. now that my comment published, it is pretty hard to see what is what in that small black and white pic. Go back?

Nancy said...

Color?

Nancy said...

This??

Nancy said...

Meany maybe?

Perla said...

i choose 'this'

Nancy said...

No duh, i might just choose it too. Anywho, you can delete all these comments since they had nothing to do with your blog and I just wanted to see the pics in comment form.

Nancy said...

I assume by "this" you meant the pic of Loumy and not my "this??"

Perla said...

no, i meant the one of you reading to daisy, or whatever you are doing that says, 'this??'

Nancy said...

Ohhhhh, OK, I see, well who wouldn't think you meant "This" like take a look at coolio. Anywho, thanks for the input. I'll give it a try. Sorry I had to take over your blog to try these out. Later Skater.

Hee hee I love that you asked what is wrong with me! Good times
