Movie Night with Mike and Marty

So I decided to treat Mike and Marty to a wonderful movie on Easter. What movie do I choose you ask - only the best around. You guessed it! Napoleon Dynamite! Marty did not seem to appreciate my attempt to introduce her to the wonderful world of amazing films. Let me just tell you, she got off the couch and started to alphabetize her CD collection. Mike, on the other hand, was laughing at the same scenes I was laughing at. He can appreciate a good flick when he is presented with one. New terminology has entered his already vast vocabulary with words suck as idoit! and ahhhhhh!. These are words that improve your everyday vocabulary - and Marty will just be stuck in the past. It is a sad though, I know. Next movie on the list - Dodgeball!

Poop

I am sleep deprived. But that is okay, I hope you all slept well last night ya jerks! I am ready for weekend, although my boss is back today - that is a good thing. Yesterday everyone was all crankey, it was rainy and poopie outside, so that didn't help the attitudes at work. I was pretty crankey too, so I can't say I was any better.

I have been up since 2:30 and the only productive thing I have done is shower, and that was about three hours ago. I have to leave for work in about 20 min, and I still have to get dress, do the hair and of course paint my face on. Now if I had Napolean Dynamite I would have slept like a baby.

Oh yea. I got a 1 am phone call from some good friends of mine. They called to give me a bad ass name. I got this call from Red, Blue, Trent, and Styles - I mean, who else would call at 1 am! So my bad ass name is Twiggy. Not Farty McBlow, or tons of fun, no sir! It's Twiggy. So if you ever catch me referring to myself as Twiggy, it is because at that time I am speaking of I was a bad ass!

Well I best go make myself look AWAKE.

PEACE OUT.

SU

I am very upset with how SU played last night - who, in thier right mind, loses to Vermont? Seriously - horrible. But I will have to say, the last part of the 2nd half and overtime was fun to watch. Especially since my neighbor was rooting for Vermont and me SU. Fun night!

In case you are wondering, I am really into this years NCAA tournament. I joined in the pool at work, only becuase our CEO gave a 10 minute speach on how he hopes everyone joins in on the fun, then threw a happy hour party to help us get into it. So I did. I put in my $5 and picked my teams, and here I go. So far, I like!

We need a color change...

Okay, well I think I might go be a bum and eat or do some work. Another weekend - I still need to get used to having weekends off. I feel like I have to do something really exciting, so when I go back to work on Monday, and co-workers ask what I did I can wow them. Last week, all I could say was nothing and laundry. This weekend - I am doing the laundry thing again. I need to get a life! Well off I go to get some grub!

THANK YA-WAY IT'S FRIDAY!

Good morning! I am trying to be cheery (hense, the color), but really, I am exhausted. On wednesday, I left work at 7 to come home and see that "the boy" parked in my spot. I laughed sooo hard, then put my war face on. I walked straight to his door (which is, what, two steps across from mine - real far walk huh!) and knocked. I didn't go change first - oh no sir, he brought it, so I was going to bring it right back baby! He answered the door and laughed, me - no laughter. I told him some jerk parked in my spot and that jerk was getting towed! Then I changed and went to his place for beers. (Yes, I even took beer with me, can't be rude now) Ya wanna know the best part of that night!?!?! Do ya, do ya?! Oh yea baby, he gave me scrubs in my size!!! And of course I had to put them on right away! I came out of the bathroom saying: oh yea! Who's the doctor now?! (answer: me!) :o)

Yesterday was NYC. It was a long day. I had to leave for the airport at 5:30 in the morning, and I didn't get home until 10:30 last night. Long day for a two hour meeting. But it went great. Waking up this morning was just not easy to do.


Well I am off to work. Need to beat Michael there to get some stuff done before he pulls me in his office for the day. And since we havn't really talked in a week, I will really be in there the WHOLE day. But he cracks me up, so I don't mind!

Happy Friday All!

Inside my head

So many things are running around in there, in my head that is. First, the boy. Does he like me? How do I know?? He is a really neat guy - but how do I know?? Do I knock on his door, or do I wait for him to knock on mine?? THESE ARE THE REASONS I HATE DATING. Second, I was invited to a friends house for a beer, do I go? I have work I should/could do, but I would like to go. I could do the reading tomorrow night, or Thursday - if you knew my flight schedule, you would know I have PLENTY of time Thursday. I would like to see my friends, but I would also like to make sure I am rested for work, it is only my third week there. Back to the boy. HELLO! What do I do?? Most of you out there are boys that I talk to, so you tell me. SD, WH, TR, and K - I'm waiting. okay, still waiting. And mike told me it was okay to like somebody - what a poop he is. It's all his fault, and I told him that yesterday. And you know what he did, he laughed. He thinks its funny that I don't know what to do. He said if was funny/cute. YEA - not to me.

OH, wanna hear something else. I'M FAT. I had to call in my measurements to order a bridesmaid dress. The lady I was dealing with told me I needed a size 10! I was furious. I have never been told I needed a size 10 dress before. I like my size 2 thank you very much. The rest of the day it just bothered me. How in the world do you go from a size 2 to a size 10. I talked the lady down to a size 6, and that is what I ordered. It will still be way to big, but hey, it beats a 10. Man, what is the world coming to!

Well I am off to wait for you guys to answer. YOU BEST HURRY, I CAN ONLY BE SO PATIENT!

2nd "date" (if it is called that)

Okay, first I am liking this whole color thing I have going on. It is like writing with crayons!

Lets go back, Thursday. We (my neighbor and I) went to Sweet Water for dinner. (Sweet Water is the BEST restaurant EVER) That consisted of good converstaion. Favorite Movie: Braveheart, Favorite Color: Blue, Favorite Disney Movie: Beauty and the Beast. Talked about high school, college and even the challenging topic of religion. This time - not challeging at all. We spoke about mission trips, and where he goes. Lets see what else, we ate lots - filat mignon for me/ribeye for him! After dinner, we drove back home and walked to our doors, I said my thank you very much and he said he would see me on saturday. I smiled and said sounds great.

Okay, now lets go to Saturday. I went to work in the morning then became a bum in the afternoon. My cell rang around 5 and it was him. He asked if I wanted to go to a movie and then dinner. I thought and I thought - do I really want to go to another dinner and a movie with a super nice guy? I forced myself to say yes, and he said 6:45 was the meeting time. So at 6:45 I walked out my door took two steps forward and knocked on his (I thought I would pick him up this time - he mentioned he wanted to show me the curtains his mom made him). I saw the curtains, very nice - props to his mom!, and off to the movie we went. We say Hitch, very good flick. A must see in my books! After the movie, we went to the Olive Garden. YUMMY! He didn't pull a Sean and get meatballs, but I had a good time anywho. We talked about embarrassing moments, favorite youth group event, friends, and the people around us. Then came the part of the evening I hate. The walking to our doors, and what do you do. He told me what time church was, and what time we have to leave by. Then what, do I hug him? what? I said my thank you's and so did he. (I bought the beer at the bar while we were waiting for a table, and the popcorn and soda) Then we stood there for a second and then both turned toward our doors and said goodnight - sleep tight kinda thing. I am way to nervous - I am still the bumbling idiot around him. He is so very kind, and funny - I don't want to say anything wrong. AH

Willy - thank you for taking my phone call. I miss not having you around to depend on (in person). It makes me feel better when another guy approves of what I am wearing. And you have good taste - so I trust you.

Gotta bounce - I have to shower and get ready for church - peace out!

Blog-A-Thon

Heres how it works. I read Kyle's blog with his entry concerning this Blog-A-Thon, then I said hey 'interview me'. So now he has sent a couple questions of his creation for me to answer here. So here are the rules if you care to play along:
1. Leave Me a comment saying “interview me”
2. I’ll respond by asking you five questions in the same row of comments you wrote in or on your blog. They’ll be different for each person I interview and from the questions that were asked me.
3. Update your blog/site with the answers to the questions (and the questions themselves)
4. Include an explanation like this and don’t leave anything out but it doesn’t have to be the same shpiel. Is shpeil spelled right?
5. Give other people interviews when they leave you “interview me” notes.

Here are the answes and the questions the kyle asked of me:

1>If you were Wilie Coyote, how would you finally catch the roadrunner, and how would you prepare it for dinner?

To catch the roadrunner, I had to come up with a strategic plan, and luckely, I am GREAT at those! (My crayons and coloring books work wonders that way.) Since you want to know SO badly how I caught the poor guy, I will tell you. I met up with my good friend Harry, Harry Potter that is, and we got chatting. You know how that goes, you say hello to a friend and three hours later you are having your third beer comparing stories. Then he mentioned his invisible cloak - and it hit me! Since Harry and I are great friends, especially after three beers, he let me borrow the cloak. I wrapped that wonderful material around me and walked right up to roadrunner, grabbed his neck and hit him in the head with a brick. I tied roadrunner to a log, then off I went to return what I borrowed and said my thank you's. I couldn't wait to get back to my dinner though. That night, instead of my normal pig roast, I had my roadrunner roast - and I have to say, it was mighty tasty. A must have in my books!

2>Pick a mutant ability from a Marvel movie(XMen, Spiderman, etc.), and how would you use that gift to save ants from becomming an endagered speices?

To help save the ants, I would have to use Wolverine's power. (Just because he is my favorite, even though I don't know how to spell his name!) With the claws that come out of my hands, I would be able to kill off all the animals trying to hurts those lovely creatures. And I would sing a song as I watched those hard working ants dig those tunnels: "The ants go marching one by one, HURAHH HURAHH!..." I am one with the ants! And with my claws, and can protect and provide - meaning scare little mutants and take their snacks then feed them to my little friends!

3>Being a female of the spieces, do you have an emercency pair of pants, which are they and most of all why the heck does someone need an emergancy pair of pants?

Yes, I do have an emergency pair of pants. What is an emergency pair pants, well to me this is the explanation. Every person has pants that are classified as "favorites", and you wear those all the time. But they eventually get dirty, and you need to wash them. Then what do you wear - your emergency pants. The pants that are okay, not your favorite - but they will do for the time being until your "favorites" are clean again. Those emergencies very rarely need to be cleaned since you wear them for a couple hours here and there. I have them, and I rarely wear them.

4>Your on a raft alone in the ocean with Rudie, you have a fishing pole and bait. You dont like seafood, what would you do?

We all know that I love my wittle Rudie! HI RUDIE! (okay, I know he can't read, but I very well can't be rude and not say hello.) Anywho, back to my answer...what I would do is fish, feed Rudie, and as time goes by, I would little by little learn to suffer through eating a meal consisting of trout and other sorts of fish with Rudie. Plus, since I am stuck on a raft for that long, I will become hilusinate and after a while, I might think that I am a guest of Rudie's and he is serving fish for dinner - that way I would have to eat it, that way I don't make the host ( Rudie) feel bad. FISH FOR DINNER - FISH IT IS!

5>Descirbe to me your perfect day-dream car. You can make the whole entire thing up, make and model dont even need to exist, and tell why you decided to include certain features. Reality and the natural laws of physics and economics do not play in this.

My perfect dream car. Are you ready for this one?! My car would be a small car, and it would have a night sky camo look. Inside the car, it would be built like a shuttle, be controlled like a shuttle. This is because it can travel to space. I will be able to land on Jupiter and study the craters and the red hole. This car will have a great camera system to help take pictures of everything I find. It is a very diverse car. Space travel, can hover with no gravity, and has the ability to drive on a street like a normal car. The wheels are made for roads and space travel. And the radio - I can ask it to play what ever song I want when ever I want to hear it. And yes, that mean if I want to hear the same song over and over again for over a week straight - I can! WHO WANTS TO RIDE WITH ME?!

First Week Comes to End

Many of you know that I started a new job this week. For those of you who are wondering what I am doing...here ya go. I am an Event Coordinator for E.J. Krause & Associates, Inc. I work in the Security Division located in the Coporate office in Bethesda (although it is called the DC office). We are the only office in the US, so when I call other offices I am calling Mexico, Japan, Germany, China...and other country's. Basically what my company does is plan and exicute Expositions and Conferences. Very interesting and exciting!

This week...it was my first week, so I spent it training with the girl I replaced. She was a very nice girl, my age, and quicky explained everything I need to know. Well, she tried. The afternoon of Thursday and all day Friday I was on my own. I like it. Right now I am getting used to everything. Barter Agreements, Contracts, writing formal invites to different government officials. This will be a huge learning curve for me, and I will be learning a lot from my boss.

Let me tell you about my boss. This man is very intelligent. He has been doing this for about 15 years, and just excells at it. I believe we will work well together, and he is going to teach me a great amount. I am ready to soak up all that knowledge!

On the fun side! So my first day there, the girl training me asked my if I have seen some movie that was on the Oscars List of Best Film. Now this is me we are talking about! I haven't seen ANY of those movies - nor do I really want to. If I am going to take two hours of my day to watch a movie - I want it to be entertaining to me. Anywho...so I had to answer this question that was asked, and since I am in a professional atmosphere now - I figured I should answer in a more professional manner. So I said: "no I havent, but I am dying to see it, is it good?" (yes, I lied!) But what I REALLY wanted to say was: Nope, but I've seen Nepolean Dynamite! Mom, you should be proud, I was a good girl!

Well, I hope I didn't bore you all too much. It has been a tiring week, but a good one for that matter. I am off, off to Office Depot - I need a brief case and a calender book with the whole year. I have two people's live I have to keep organized - mine and my bosses.

OHHHH Kyle! There is a spell check! haha - never seen that before! hahaha
