Sorry folks

Oh for my 4 followers of my beloved blog, I am so sorry I have neglected you! Busy month, finishing 1 grad school class for which I wrote the world's BORING-est paper ever. It took me 4 and a half hours and I was so bored writing it, somehow I got a 100 on it so boring is good, apparently. Mike and I went down Mexico way for my friend Erin's wedding, it was lovely, awesome resort (mucho dinero so we moved across the street to the cheaper one after 2 nights), everyone cried at the wedding...which made Mike uncomfortable because he was born without tear ducts, I'm pretty sure. We got stuck there for a day because of Hurricane Paula, and it may sound wonderful to be "stuck in paradise" but Mike and I are creatures of habit, we much prefer our own environment and by that time we wanted to go home. I needed to go to yoga and eat a salad and not drink any more cervesa and Mike really needed to watch football. Luckily I brought my laptop to do school work so we could do stuff on line, good for Mike because he is the commish of a fantasy football league and god knows he would have had a melt down if he couldn't connect to it. While he did that I watched a movie about some private school girl whose parents sold her to the devil at birth. Here is what I learned from that movie...apparently if you are sold to the devil your life kinda rocks because after she turned 18 and was "given" to like the evil people her life got a lot better. She was valedictorian, she couldn't be killed, she was apparently loaded and umm..her boyfriend was Chace Crawford. I don't know if that's the message we want to be sending to the youth of American but whatever, it entertained me for 2 hours. Now back to reality, its almost Halloween which really means nothing to me except for on Nov 1st when all the candy goes on sale! Score!

A man's man is a dude

I often tell stories of Mike and his boy-ness, I tell these stories to people at work and my friends because sometimes he is just unintentionally funny. Like he is a guy, he is a total dude. When we first started dating I said I was going to get a facial and he replied: "Is that when you go sit in mud and get pickles on your eyes?"
Recently he has been firing off some good ones...I asked him if he wanted me to make him a peanut butter and jelly sammich for lunch the next day, I made it and then 5 minutes later I walked into the living room and Mike said "Did you make it on bread?" Hmmm...I replied "No I didn't, I put peanut butter and jelly into a plastic baggy and squished it all together so he could eat it with a spoon" Yes I put it on bread.

Then yesterday we had to take Lizzie Bean our kitty to the vet to get some shots, I got home from work and washed my face and then put my contacts in and put on minimal make-up, mascara and some blush. We went to the vet, we talked to the vet tech, Lizzie got her shots, one of which was for feline distemper. I asked about that in the waiting room when we were checking out, I thought it might be to make sure she isn't in a bad mood? Interacted with about 8 people, we went home, brought Lizzie upstairs and then went out to dinner. I parked and looked in the rear view mirror only to see that I had HUGE black smudges under my eyes from my mascara. I asked Mike if I had looked like that the whole time...he shrugged his shoulders, I was like "Dude did I look like this at the vet?" Mike: "I thought you were trying something new?" and then he said "I thought you were going to go play football" and then he laughed hysterically for about 5 minutes while I tried to get the now very dry mascara from underneath my eyes. -
Yes, this right here is the man I love...
