New Things

I have started to try and work on things that get me out of my usual routine. Some of these things are related to books I am reading, others are doing things with people I do not do things with on a usual basis, and others are related to going, seeing, and experiencing things in the area. If any of you have any ideas of things that you think I should experience that you think would make me well-rounded (within reason that is-no WarCraft!) let me know!

I Found My Song!

After hearing this song on 96.5 many times and trying to get Kelly to hear it and figure it out-I went to the station's website and found the song you guys should listen to at least once. It is called Life is Beautiful by SIXX A.M. It speaks volumes!

Another Crazy Christopher Adventure

Some of you may remember the not so great adventure last summer when I let Christopher convince me that walking to Chipotle would be a great idea/exercise regime. That turned into a race to get home before I sharted. So amidst all this crazy weather, he calls me and tells me that he is out and about driving around. He hinted at coming over to go to Chipotle and I told him he was welcome to come over but may get stuck on my street. I did not think he would actually come over in this crazy weather. Well he made it and we took a jaunt to Chipotle on the snowy roads. There were some sliding issues at times but we made it there and back. I told him we were crazy for going out but there were many other crazies driving around. Guess a foot of snow can't keep most people down!

Screw You Winter Storm!

As if the amount of snow we got wasn't enough, when I went out to partially shovel the driveway the freaking sun came out! Since I am trapped in my house I would at least like the day to look gloomy! No sun here! It's like Mother Nature is laughing upon us. Here is the freaking mountains of snow and the sun which you can't enjoy unless you want to make snow angels and freeze your ass off! I shoveled enough to get to the mailbox so i could get my latest Netlfix that came in the mail today since I am stuck here until who knows when! Thanks Mother Nature-what a pal you are!

Sickly

I have the day off today because I have a painful sore throat and a nasty cough. When I was filling my prescription I felt a sense of deja vu. The meds are Cephalexin. Then I realized where I had seen the name before-me and Paris are on the same meds! How ironic is that?

Spider-Man, Vodka, and Storm

Tamiko has been hounding me to dress up as Spider-Man for her twin's birthday. I have been blowing her off and telling her that I will not do it. She has managed to get me to at least go to the costume store to try it on and then we will go from there. Today she brought in the vodka angle. She wants to bribe me with liquor to get me to do it. Then, she brought in the Storm angle. It has been my dream for her to dress up like Storm or Foxxy Love. She said she would dress up as Storm for Halloween if I did the Spider-Man thing. I am pretty much sold at this point-Foxxy was non-negotiable.

My TV Screen is Shrinking!!

I am doubly pissed that while watching Big Brother my screen keeps shifting in size from small to smaller. First I have to deal with the weather closings and then the primary results!!! Isn't this what the news is for? Why can't broadcasters leave me alone? Yes, I know that is a thinking error.

Another Movie Problem

Me and Amy went to see The Eye tonight and lately we have had bad luck at Danbarry. Last time it was the kids, this time it was the older gentleman who decided to begin loudly snoring 20 min. into the show. I tried to loudly cough-nothing happened. I told Amy to scream loudly at the next scary moment-her scream did not work. Finally with a loud snarl he collected himself and woke up-the rest of the movie was spent in peace. The new plan is to only see R rated movies there to avoid kids and take whistles to deal with the sleepers. The movie was decent-I would give it somewhere between a B+ or a C. It's a rental!

Mud Is Not My Friend

After a calorific brunch with Aker on Sunday, me and Paris decided to meet Cecelia and Matt at the dog park hoping for a good dog day. I got there first and as I drove there it became quite cloudy. Upon inspection of the mud pit that was the dog park I was like-UH-NO! Cecelia and Matt got there and we decided to just walk around the park. Paris managed to wring her way out of her collar and headed straight for the mud. I was a slow motion NNOOO!!!! The mud got caked on her legs and while we were walking I occasionally splashed water on her legs to get it off with the water I brought for her to drink. We had our walk and when we got back to the cars, Cecelia helped me clean her up. Once she was decent, she again took off and the leash flew out of my hands and mud occurred again. We cleaned her off a second time and then I had to put a blanket in my back seat to keep it somewhat clean. Again, mud is not my friend.

Blue Milk

OK people-it's the little things that matter these days. Last night when I was at Cub Food's I ran into my grocery store crush again and found a new cereal I am so excited to try! It is called Cap'n Crunch Treasure Hunt. It has red and blue anchor puffs that turn the milk blue! Yes, this may sound childish but I need something other than TV to look forward to! Blue milk works for me for now!
