Holiday Cheer

I want to take a moment of your time to share with you a wonderful moment I got to share with my friend Tyler. Usually I say "long story short..." but why would i do that? you have a few seconds to peruse through this.

Tyler got a promotion, he will now be working full time! I used this as an excuse for us to hang out on a Friday night, Ashelyn isn't in town.... so what else am i to do???? Friday was also the day my boss decided to buy a newer security system. "The box says quick and easy installation, in under an hour" he told me.

Three hours later, I have Tyler helping wrap the cords and finish up. Mind you, I'm not dumb when it comes to installing electronics, its just we decided to hide cords in attics and go through walls, it was much more than an "easy installation"

So, we went home so i could clean up. Tyler to a look at show times and decided that a 845 showing of Mission Impossible was perfect for us. We had a little more than 2 hours to go eat before the movie, where should we go? Canellas!

We called in advance so we could make sure we had a seat, I told Tyler what was on the menu so he could better make a decision, I didn't want to be late to the movie!  When we sat down and the waitress took our order (Lasagna for me, Pesto Ravioli for him, and tiramisu to share), Tyler looked over at the bar and said "There's Scott!"
"Scott who?"
"Mom's Scott"
Sure enough, at the bar was my mother's boyfriend, who suggested the restaurant to me ages ago. We flagged him down and started chatting. after some small talk he went back to his seat and finished. as he left, the waitress walked up to us and told us that the gentleman we were talking to just picked up the bill, tiramisu and all!!!  Score!!!

We were feeling special that night, the spirit of charity was around us. As i looked around (I'm a people watcher) I noticed two ladies in the booth across from us. They were filming each other opening presents, naturally this intrigued me. I noticed that one of the presents they were passing around was a collage of one man in a military uniform.

Our waitress walked over to their table and picked up the black check book, and made some small talk. the only thing i heard was "He's in Afghanistan, I'm his mom and this is his girlfriend." After a while the waitress came over to our table to ask how everything was.

I asked her "have they paid yet?"
"No" she responded
I pulled out my card and told her I wanted to pick up their tab. When she asked what she should tell them, I fumbled with a response. this is where Tyler very calmly said "tell them a fellow soldier paid for the meal." PERFECT! Why didn't I think of that?

She came back with the book, I signed it and looked at Tyler. He nodded and we got up and left.....

I remember getting a gift card from a mother of a soldier because i was in my uniform and felt comforted knowing that there were boys like me willing to help her son get home.

I never knew how close the military families were to each other. they are held together by the triumphs, the pain, and the lose of people close to them. God Bless every soldiers family.. not just in these holidays, but the entire year..... you never know when you'll be celebrating Christmas with a soldier far away/

Next Step

I am trying to move out... It seems easy, find a place, give the manager money, have everyone help you move your stuff. Too Easy right?

NO! The first step is the most difficult thing to do!! granted, I have a potential roomate who is slightly picky, but i am perfectly find with that! because if i didnt have him rejecting anything outside of the I-15 and I-80 Circle, then i would have picked a crappy apartment on the west side of town (thank goodness i have a handgun!)

Forecast Unknown

OK OK OK Fine! All write about something right now. I will paint the picture as to why I am FINALLY writing in my blog after like a bazillion years. Well mainly I'm bored, I am shelled up in a Po-dunk hotel in the middle of a Po-dunk "city", in the middle of a Po-dunk State. I decided that I wanted to stretch my wings a little bit and finely do something on my own for once. So, i came back to my mission to say hi to everyone.... Well, the only ones really still talking to me are the Littles. so I'm saying hi to them.

Whilst I'm sitting here waiting for the time to pass, I took a look at every one's blog. . . . Stalker-style. This is what I found

WEDDINGS:
There has been many people that I know that got married. I know I'm slacking on the whole "relationship" department, but I was never really good at it. I'll blissfully keep my Grilled Cheese at 10pm, my SUSHI EXPERIENCE and my multiple episodes of "Big Bang Theory," because I wouldn't have it any other way. (Yes, I would even keep the mannequin heads, as long as i don't find the in my bed)

RUNNING:
I think everyone one has gone Bat-Sit Crazy, Because all they want to do is RUN, not from anything mind you, not from the bogeyman, or Jason, or Freddy, but run around. now, I've done that before, I don't think its amusing to run 2 miles then turn around and run back, SORRY CHARLIE

FIREARMS?
When did that become a topic in blogosphere full of females?! Well, I have one, It is nice to me, and I'm nice to it, We love eachother, The End.

So, Yes, I stole all Ya'alls Ideas and made them my own... next I will actuall come up with my own, add some pinache, some flavor flav! and maybe some photos

WHICH MEANS I NEED TO TAKE MORE PHOTOS!!!

Where is my mind?

Picture Collage of what is on my mind? I think I will, because I need to learn how to put pictures on this thingy (HTML/CSS was never my strong suit!)

SUMMER SCHOOL! :D



THIS IS MY MOM, SHE ROCKS!



BACK TO SCHOOL ALREADY!?




All is well because this weekend.....






And the Last Thing on my mind...........

SeXiSt

As I look at the movie trailers that of films that are suppose to entice us for the next year i came to a conclusion... America knows how to keep me going to movies. this comes from the fact that the only reason i will see certain films is because of the supporting actress involved... lets face it, there is hardly a film conversation that doesnt end in, "and so-and-so wasnt bad to look at either!" I give kudos to not only the film makers but the actresses that know when america wants.



The Amazing SpiderMan: I would never consider seeing this remake if they did not put none other than Emma Stone in. although she is hard to place with her luxurious blonde hair, it will make do.... for now.

Three Musketeers: Victorian aged meets flying machines? what!? four musketeers when the title clearly states THREE?? Strike two ORLANDO BLOOM!? Strike three...... Milla Jovovich as an assassin... ALL is forgiven.... now how about the famous Side boob shot from her too?

That one show that has justin timberlake and mila kunis... enough said.
