Yay! More Fun! :) (Pictures)

/ friends, pictures, thanksgiving

Tonight, I went to the Thanksgiving Dinner that was held for The Grove. It was pretty okay. I stuck by Rob and Tyler for most of the night, and Kim at some points too. Interesting foods there. Lots of desserts. 🙂 Aidan was good for the most part, playing with the babies and the toys. He got bratty near the end; I think he was tired of being in the house.

Kim, Rob, Tyler and I left together and hung out in the street for a while. It was way too cold, though, so we went to Starbucks and hung out and drank hot drinks. I drank cocoa and my stomach is already bubbling. Dang lactose intolerance. Some of the most memorable moments of the night were: Tyler doing his “kid dance,” (I have to get that on video someday), Rob tossing Tyler up in the air…come to think of it, Rob and Tyler together is pretty funny. I love hanging out with them.



Tyler (the cutest geek ever) and me at Starbucks.


Rob showing his strength by lifting Tyler, but not so much. Tyler is a bit wiry. 😉


Rob and Aidan sharing a table at Starbucks. How cute are they??

My friends ROCK.

More pictures coming soon to the photo album.

Not sure what the plans are for tomorrow. I was going to clean the house and isolate the cause of the gross funny smell, but I think Chris may have taken care of it already. Hmm. I know at some point, I’m supposed to hang out with Amy, but that’s not til the evening. I will probably try to catch up on sleep tomorrow. Just relax, maybe. Chris had mentioned the zoo, which never makes me sad. I LOVE the zoo. But we’ll see. I’d just as soon stay in bed all day, or play on the computer. Ha ha.

Last night, Kelly P came over and we had spaghetti and girl time. THAT was fun, especially the watching Little People part. Where’s Todd? Haha. Long story. Well, not so much. But anyway, I always love hanging out with her, so I’m excited that she came all the way to my house just to spend time with me and have spaghetti with me. 🙂

I am so glad it’s the weekend!!!!!! Seriously. Today was the longest Friday ever. Actually, no it wasn’t. There was another one a few months ago that was much longer, but today was still pretty rough. I am so looking forward to relaxing soon. Probably taking the laptop into the bedroom and having a ball.

Next week, we are taking Aidan to stay with my mom for a week. I will miss him, but I will enjoy the free time in the evenings for sure. Hopefully I can get the following things done:

1. Quality time with friends.
2. A bit of writing.
3. Christmas shopping.

OH MY GOD. It’s my mommy’s birthday. Somebody remind me to call her (at a decent hour)!!!!!

Is it really possible to die from boredom? I’m thinking yes. I swear, the weekly staff meeting is one hour, but it is THE longest hour of the week and I am about ready to pull my hair out at the end. Literally. aklajklafjadkfjk!

Turkey For Lunch Is Never A Good Thing

/ friends, life

A word of advice. If you’re already very tired, don’t eat turkey for lunch. It doesn’t help the condition at all.

My hair. Oh my word. It’s just not cute at all. It refuses to hold any sort of curl, and it’s kind of puffy and really not good. So I have to get something done to that sometime soon. I don’t want to look like a lion or something. At least it’s soft, though.

My left lens on my glasses was all wobbly. But I took it over to the eye doctors and they fixed it right up for me. For free! 🙂

I am so tired! I know there is good reason why, but still. I don’t like it. I want to go see Garth play tonight at Dennison University, but I don’t know if I’ll have the energy to do so!

I stayed up pretty late last night. There was The Grove, which was nice, as always. Amy showed up, which was a pleasant surprise. And Tina too. The only missing link was Kim. I’m guessing she had to work. But Monica was there, and the “crew” went to Steak and Shake again afterwards. I, or I should say TAMI took some pictures with my camera. I’ll try to have them up soon. Rob took lots of pictures with Tyler’s camera, so I’ll ask him to send copies of those along to me if he’d be so kind. YAY. Steak and Shake! YAY! My friends!

It was a crazy night there at Steak and Shake. The participants were Monica, Rob, Tyler, Kelly P, Garth, Tami, me, and then Matt B who came quite a bit late. We thought Tina was coming, but she never showed. 🙁 I can’t even remember all the funny stuff that went on, and I was hoping I could. I do know that everything regarding Rob was “hot.” And that he drank BBQ sauce through a straw. That was digusting, but funny as hell. He also sprinkled pepper sauce all over the rest of my sourdough toast and ate it. He’s adventurous. At one point, there was a wager regarding that pepper sauce. Tyler said he’d give Monica X amount of dollars to eat three of the peppers. Monica said “You’ve got money. I want $300!” I love her. She’s so funny. Oh, and there was Tami’s Side by Side – eggnog and white chocolate. ICK!!! The only part that sucked (for me) was when the talk turned to politics. Ugh. I tend to shut down when that happens. I don’t say anything because it’s kind of understood–within the group–if you throw something out there, be prepared to take the backlash. It’s easier for me to avoid the backlash altogether. I hate arguing polictics.

Matt played a few songs on the jukebox for us. Beach Boys, Pink Floyd, The Doors. Tyler and Rob did a silly dance which I caught on film. Poor Garth was falling asleep at the table. Matt complimented me on my purse and remarked that guys should be able to carry purses. 🙂 After we were outside, Rob not only picked up Tami’s car with her in it again, but he picked up MY car with ME in it. He said he doesn’t like mine because it’s too “sharp.” So I told him not to do it anymore if it was going to hurt.

It was a good time, as always. My friends make me smile. 😀
