I think the first time that I ever heard that phrase was when I first saw the movie Newsies. After that, I always wanted to be a newsie so that I could yell that phrase and get people to listen too. It's sort of empowering.

Now, it doesn't have quite the same effect on a blog as it does handing out "papes" wearing a newsboy cap in 1900s New York City, but I wanted to try it for special effect anyway, because after all, I have some news....


I am getting a new blog. The new address is http://that-redhead.blogspot.com.

The reasons that I am doing this is not to cause heartache and frustration to the whole world. Instead, it is because my current blog has already been causing some heartache and frustration. To me, and to several others, who have for some reason, been unable to comment or see various links or whatever. And I've been having some HTML trouble with it too, which I believe is the result of me trying to play around with HTML when I first got it and I didn't know what I was doing, and well...I think I messed some things up. So we're trying again. So, find me there. Because I won't be here much more. 

Never fear, though. The new blog looks identical to this one, so all the thousands of you that read my blog (come on, I know you're out there....somewhere...) can ease into the transition a little more smoothly. Hopefully it won't be too traumatic for any of us.

Catch ya lata at the new address!

1. Break right index finger. Preferably while running late to a meeting, making brownies, attempting to remove the beaters, and pressing the button that violently turns the beaters on instead of the non-violent one that pushes them out. Find out that your finger will be crooked for the rest of mortality and that it may be close to a year before it stops hurting. Then tell the story with pride and laugh a lot, because it's a really stupid and funny way to do it. 

2. Say goodbye to the best living situation imaginable, especially for a single Mormon girl. With these beautiful women.


3. Visit home for a few days at the end of the semester. Introduce a PC-oriented family to the joys of Mac Photobooth.
 

4. Plan a family trip with these people (except for the guy on the far right, unfortunately)...



to these places.


5. Move to Chicago.  
 
 via
6. Start internship, with this lady...

6. Absent the blogging world for a while.

7. Leave for family trip in less than two weeks.
8. See this play with the sister. Also, take lots of goofy pictures like these ones with her as well.


9. Finish reading these books.
 
10. Return to blogging world, count your blessings, and summarize Important Things in My Life for the Past Two-Three Weeks on blog.

Oh yeah, and #11:

11. Post really goofy/potentially blackmailable pictures of self on blog. Shrug it off.

I stand by this. I can't say it nearly as eloquently or convincingly as Elder Holland can, but I can tell you that I know it's true too.
