// - Introducing the Colson-Hill Wedding Party!!

Hi again!!!

I told Brett [which it just dawned on me, I never introduced ourselves, next paragraph please] that I made a blog. He said "On MySpace?" I said no, a real blog. He was impressed. haha.

OK, soo, I'm Emily & I'm 24. I work as a secretary for a siding company in town. I really love my job and my co-workers are the best. We all get along really well. It's a laid back office and about half of my day is spent socializing with them. The other half is spent working and occasionally hanging out with one of the owners' grand kids. They are the cutest kids ever! Anyways, so I'm 24 and am so excited to be getting married. Brett's family is great and that's awesome because I'd hate to have those demon in laws I've heard about LOL. I keep saying as long as my Dad and his Mom don't get to talking about politics, we'll be in good form. I love tattoos, I currently have 4 of them and Brett & I are getting our wedding date in binary sometime before the wedding. Which could prove interesting because my tattoo artist moved to Wyoming, but I'm sure we'll find one soon.. I hope. Anyways, I have the Chinese symbol for "Consequences" on my right wrist, 9 stars on my left arm [everyone has a "regret tattoo, that's mine], a Koi on my right foot because the past summer my Aunt was fish sitting and our gold fish died and she flushed him, so it's his memorial and I have a dove with my Grandfathers signature on my right ankle. I always said I'd never get a mans name tattooed on me, but I love and miss my Grandfather more than I can ever express, so I made an exception. And Brett is cool with it too, he paid for half of it :) I love to text message and have a Dare phone from Verizon. It's the coolest thing ever. I'd be lost without it, no doubt about it. OH!! And I am a huge World of Warcraft addict!!

Enough about me, lets talk about Brett. He is going to be 30 on the 16th of this month and graduated from Boise State in 2005 with a degree in computer networking. He moved to this area in May to work for Dell computers. He worked in Technical Support for them. Let me back up... Brett is thee quietest person I've ever known. When we first met, it was literally like interviewing him for him to talk to me. So you can imagine why I was so surprised when I found out he did Tech Support via a phone. Needless to say, in 2008 he finally gave up and switched companies. Dell was in the midst of layoffs, so he got out while he could. I used to work for a whey protein company and am still good friends with a few people. My friends husband was able to get Brett and interview and he was hired on the spot. He is a packager, which means he bags the protein powder in 50 pound bags and stacks it [oooh, strong hehe] and gets to drive a Fork Lift, which makes me jealous. In mid '08 he started to train for other various positions in the plant, so hopefully if a job comes open, he can get promoted into that. He enjoys his job and still loves working on computers, in the privacy of his apartment without having to talk to anyone. For the record, he talks to me all the time. Of course for the first 2 weeks, it was either in text message or 1-2 word answers. Now he doesn't shut up hehe. I mentioned I'm a huge WOW addict, Brett got me hooked. He saw the South Park episode and started to play. I thought it was the dumbest thing in the world. Now I play about 10-12 hours a week on it. I'm such a geek! When we have kids, excuse me, one kid, he [I've got high expectations here] better play WOW with us haha.

I'd planned on using tonight's blog to tell you about how we met & got engaged, but since I didn't properly introduce us last night, it'll have to wait for tomorrow! Until then, 130 days to go!!! :D
