Not Lovin' It

16 August 2011  at 08:55
Saturday we went to the drive-in for my birthday.  We were running later than planned and hadn't eaten, so we stopped at McDonald's.  We ordered food, and Mom & I both wanted kids' meals but with water to drink.  She said she still had to charge us $1 for the drink, so we said fine - just make sure they are large waters.  We get to the window and my sister asks for honey mustard.  The only thing we had ordered that was allowed a dipping sauce was my nuggets and I already had BBQ so she said it would cost.  At this point we'd already spent $2 on water, so my sister just said never mind and we started to leave.  As we were leaving, Dad looked at the chick in the window and said, "I'm not lovin' it."

I know, I know.  This is one of those 'you had to be there' moments, but it was freaking hilarious.  I wanted to document it so at least I'd remember, even if you can't appreciate it.  :)

Dammit.  I really shouldn't set deadlines for myself.  Soon, I will catch up.  Promise!

This is me.  By which I mean I've been incredibly busy lately.  I am going to try to set aside my hectic social calendar this weekend to catch up on some blogging, and share some pictures of my Hawaiian vacation!!!  I'm not making any promises, though...

Cinco de Mayo!!!

This picture doesn't do much to demonstrate anything about the day, but it's the only one I took.  For Cinco, we went to the new(ish) Jose Pepper's in Liberty.  It was actually really fun.  Ashley (my cousin's wifey), was managing so she brought us free tequila shots, and there was a band playing crazy 80's covers.  A coworker of ours was actually standing in as well, as it was his old band.
The lady in the band was a total nutjob, and she reprimanded Sarah for flipping someone off.  It was actually quite hilarious.

Green Room

My friend Jenny is moving into my spare room.  It will be good, because I need more money.  She decided she wanted to paint it, which I was fine with seeing as it was actually the only room in the house I hadn't painted since moving in.  We painted it green.  You can see the color in the picture above. 


  

Here it is with the curtains and the trim all done.  It looks dark in this picture but it's really not.  It turned out quite well - I am pleased.  :)

He Has Risen!

Hope everyone had a very Happy Easter!  If you know me, you probably know that I am not at all religious, but I enjoyed watching all of the little kiddos search for eggs and dye eggs, and I enjoyed some mimosas.  All in all, a good day.  :)

You are victorious.

I finally got the yard mowed!  Even the crazy long dead-looking 'grass' that grows out by the barn.  I feel as if I've really accomplished something.  Now for a beer.

Marco (not Polo)

We played some Cooking Mama, and turned it into a drinking game.  Actually we made the game a long time ago, and we didn't follow it very closely this time...  Anyway, if you use the same character all the time on the game, it makes it so you can't use him for one round, and when you try to select him it shows him on the screen all fat, and he says 'What? What's happening?!'.  We always use Marco.  You can see Fat Marco in this picture.  

Dressmaking 101

I look like a doofus, but whatever.  I MADE THAT DRESS BITCHES!!!!  And, it wasn't even that hard.  Although Jenny did struggle....

Domino's Luv

While stumbling(upon) earlier this week, I came across this story of Domino's Delivery Instructions.  I had never thought of anything like that, and was envious of the guy who did.  However, I fully intended after reading it to steal his idea.  

Last night I was a little drunk and offered to buy some delivery for Andy.  I remember eating it (it was delicious), but not a lot beyond that.  Then I woke up this morning and saw the box, and remembered I'd written this special instruction: Draw a dancing unicorn on the box.  I have to say, I'm impressed with the artwork.
