Dating

My mother raised a very good point. If you read the comments on my last posting, my mother brought up dating in her second comment. I have been mentioning this fleece thief, or fleece boy - but how much do I know about this guy? Then my mother brought up a serious question that I don't even know the answer to. So I think now is the time to start getting the answers. Question number one:

How many Oreo cookies can he fit in his mouth with a gulp of milk before he bursts?

Okay Fleece boy - you need to answer.

I'M GOIN' PRO!

Oh yea! You heard me - I ROCK!! Last night I met the fleece theif at his bowling league, since I hadn't seen him all weekend. After the league was done bowling, once again I found myself giving advice on ways to improve, and then I had to show then how it is done. I know, I have my nice moments. I don't want to brag, but they really needed my expertise. So I have been thinking, I might go pro. People were calling my people all day begging, i mean really begging me to let them sponsor me. After a while, it just got rediculous, do these people have no shame?

Okay, in all reality - I bowled 106! And yes, if you really must know I was jumping up and down like a wacko after each frame I did well in - but I was excited!! I think I really impressed the guys with my bowling moves last night. A 12 year old was even trying to give me pointers. I didn't mind it when fleece boy or his friends were helping me, but when a 12 year old is teaching you - you really feel like an idiot. But hey, I left with a great BIG smile on my face!!!

Well I best bounce. A friend is coming over for dinner - so I best start cooking. YES I CAN COOK KYLE, SEAN, WILLY, TIM, FLEECE BOY! You guys have no faith in me. I was told I was a good cook! And no mom and dad, it is not mac and cheese and hot dogs. Man, the slack I get for trying to be a good friend.

HAPPY EARTH DAY (yesterday)

Kyle and sean are always posting all these pictures. So I have decided to do the same thing. But one thing - I have to go and take some. So that is my plan. But then, I have to remember how to put them onto the blog. MAN - the things you have to remember these days.

This week was a good one. Work is getting hectic. We have a show in three weeks in Mexico City. Lots to do, with little time left. Wenesday and Thursday I hung out with fleece boy and his friends. Wednesday I was able to show off my incredable poker skills. Man, it is embarrassing how GOOD I am. I felt bad for those who were playing with me. Thrusday we went to Clarendon Ballroom (I think that is the name of the place) to see his roomies friends band. I liked them - very good! I think you all would have liked it to. There I was able to show off my amazing talents in the dancing category. Oh yea, no shame there. We did "the shark" and other idiotic things that, of course, made us look cool. Well at least we probably gave people a good laugh - but I had fun.

Well I am off to get my stuff ready to move. (I figured I should start to make the move easy) And to shower. I think Julie and Peter can smell me in germany. (although, that is what I was aiming for!)

Words of Wisdom:
Laugh at yourself. If you can't do that, then how can you walk through life with having any sort of fun?

Home

Again, I have been thinking. Always a dangerous pastime, I know. But I have been doing it. My question to myself is: Do I miss home? And here is my answer...

I miss my brother. I miss his cooking and him doing his brotherly things. Picking on me or getting mad at me over the stupid small things. Or how I love to drive him nuts! It is very difficult to do that when you live far away. Being able to count on him when I just needed my brother.

I miss willy. My old roomie. I miss the late night discussions on Chase-Pitkin while having beers in our livingroom. Or him getting up in the morning all grouchy! And listening for him to come in at 3 or 5 in the morning - it was then I could really sleep since I knew he was home okay.

I miss sean. Having play time with him and Kyle. Going to movies and having him spill buttered popcorn all over me just to see if it would piss me off. Putting Sean and Emmy in the same room to see how long it would take before they started to argue.

I miss julie. All our men (mark, tom, adam, brian - am I missing anyone?). Oh, how they loved our youthful ways. Just remember - The Boy Is Mine because We Were Running Just As Fast As We Can!! Aren't we due for another slumber party?!

I miss my close friends. I miss seeing their faces and laughing with them. But then I think - I am very lucky that I am still in contact with all of them everyweek. Even though I miss them, I have come to the conclusion, No - I don't miss home. This is my home - I am just waiting for those close friends to realize that they need to be here to! (hint hint) By the way, did I mention that is was in the 80's today, and it will be 87 tomorrow?? Just thought I would mention that!

Friday Mode

I have been in Friday mode since Monday afternoon, well make it Monday morning. And it hasn't just been me, it has been the whole office. The CEO was out of the office Monday and Tuesday, so that wasn't much of a help. Then there was Wednesday, and on Wednesday everyone was looking forward to today (Thursday) because we had a happy hour beginning at 4:30. When you know you are getting beer, at work, at 4:30 - who can think about work. NOT ME! So there went Wednesday. Then there was today, Thursday, and that brings me back to the beer statement. Now today's happy hour was thrown by the technology division, and my division (the security division) is throwing the next happy hour one May5th, Cinco de Mayo!!! So tomorrow my boss it having a Top Secret meeting on our happy hour. Today there were games, it was a Russian theme - which ment vodka shots (I passed, not a vodka fan), and really good food. So ours will be a Mexican theme (hello! Cinco de Mayo, keep up here!), and we are thinking sombraro's, sunglasses, mustaches, and margarita's baby! Oh yea, it will be the BEST! We might even throw in a pinata! Well I am off to get ready for Friday - only the best day of the week. This takes lots of preparation - I need to start my relaxation process, get ready for the weekend. As you can tell, it was a pretty stressful week.

Oh, I stole once fleece - two to go! Oh yea fleece boy - IT'S ON!

The Mikes Meet

On Friday, I introduced Mike to Mike and Kellie. Yea, that was pretty strange Mike and Kelly eating dinner with Mike and Kellie. It was safe to say no one forgot names. My Friends, Mike and Kellie are like family to me and Mike (friend) was wanting to meet Mike, so I arranged a dinner. We went to Champs (I love their queso fries, very yummy). The night went well. It's safe to say, they got along.

In case my possie is wondering, I have not gotten my fleece back. I go over to steel them back, and Mike sees it coming, and beats me to the punch.

And I have learned something new. I am AMAZING at bowling. Oh yea baby - I ROCK! I am suprised people aren't knocking down my door as we speak asking me to join their teams. We bowled 4 games last night after Mike's league finished. My average of the games was about a 70. Oh yea! I think I need to try out for bumper bowling! Mike gave me like three pointers to bowl better - and three was just too many for one night. But let me tell you, if you need someone to throw a gutter ball - I'm your girl! Just call the Twigser and I'll come a runnin!

Fleece Thief

Have you ever had a fleece that you really liked? Yea, me too. But then you let some shmuck borrow it, becuase you are being that nice person that you are, and then they take it. They automatically think it is theirs to keep! HELLO - I WANT MY BLACK AND BLUE FLEECES BACK THANK YOU! And if you don't return them, I am so sending my possie out to haunt you! Oh yea, that means Red, Blue, Trent, and Styles (my bad ass friends) will be after your butt! Yea, whos shakin now!

So yea, the Twigster is doin good. Kinda tired, but pretty wired. I had dinner with 2500 of my closest friends tonight. Okay, well maybe it was my boss and some congressmen and legistlature's and cheif firefighter's from all over. Interesting night. Learned lots - and I got a really neat bobble head. Oh, I also found a new type of wine I like, and when I think of the name I will share it with you. If I don't, your loss cos it was really good!

Well I am off to bed. To bed to bed they said! And to the fleece theaf - I'M WATCHING YOU!

So I got stood up

So I been thinking...again. Still a dangerous past-time, I know! So I got stood up. But I lived and I moved on. When my aunt and uncle were in town, I met this guy mike. I like to see how many mike's I can meet to drive people crazy! I hung out with him and his friends a couple times. Then he took me to dinner and a movie. Oceans 12 - I was really tired since the movie started at 9:45. So I put all my effort into staying awake I can't even tell you what the movie was about. Anywho - anyone know if it was good? Then he was away for the weekend, so I hung out with Wegmans friends - that was fun. And then my phone rang tonight - it was him. He was driving home and wanted to know if I wanted to meet him down the street from me where he is in a league. I laughed, then said okay.

So all in all - even though I worked this weekend, I had a pretty good one. I hope you all did as well. Especially sean, since it was his birthday!

Google

Have you ever googled yourself?? I hung out with this guy and he had googled my dad - and it was amazing how much he found. I thought about it for a while, and then I thought that can be pretty scary. So I get to work the next morning, boot my computer and decided to google myself. Not much, basically the only stuff on me is because of the job I have now. So then I googled this guy, my dad, my old boss...not finding too much - but it is kinda fun.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SEAN! How does it feel to be getting older? Do you feel old yet? There are days when I certainly do.

Well I am off - work to be done. And it is majorly thundering - i HATE thunder!
