no meat

Feeling especially hungry and carnivorous this evening, I decided to stop in at Taco Bell on my way home with Elaina from vitising teaching. Pulling up to the drive-thru, my mouth salivating at the thought of enjoying my most favorite of favorite meals, the only on my mind was: BEEF, BEEF, beefbeefbeef. Rolling down my window I wait.

"Can I help you?" Comes the scratchy, barely descerible voice from the intercom.
"I'd like a #6." I say.
"Uh...right now we don't have any meat." Says the voice.

There is silence in the car for about 3 seconds.

"You don't have any meat?!" I question, flabbergasted.
"No."
"Okay, nevermind."

Looking in my rearview window, there is luckily no one behind me so I put my little Dodge Neon in reverse and leave.

"You don't got no meat?" Elaina says from the passanger seat. "What you mean you don't go no meat?!"

Something is wrong with the world when Taco Bell has no meat...

three day weekends

You know what the best part about today is? I don't have to go to work tomorrow! I wish every weekend were a three day weekend.

Since I have nothing really important to tell you, I am going to take Kristina's tag and tell you seven random facts about myself. Ready? Here we go:

1. I am in denial about my true age.
2. I have never been kissed.
3. I have an addiction to vanilla soft serve ice cream.
4. I want to learn Russian.
5. I hate going to bed...it just means I have to wake up the next morning and start everything all over again.
6. I glean abnormal amounts of pleasure from greeting cards.
7. I live in a comfortable level of hypocracy.

And here's an extra one because it's a holiday weekend:

8. I like to make fun of the shows I love.

roommate celebration

Last night I made pumpkin pie for Elaina's birthday. I asked her what she wanted and that's what she said was her favorite. Her brithday is actually on Sunday, but she was going home for the weekend so we celebrated last night. We also celebrated (belatedly) Stephanie's birthday which was on the 1st.





Kristina was being a spoil sport and wouldn't let me take a picture of her...I took this one before she could get away! :) (I love you Kristina!!)

call me irresistable

About a month ago my friend, Sarah Griffin, called and asked me if I wanted to go to the Michael Buble concert in Tucson on April 30th. I was excited. Did I want to go to Michael Buble?? Is the sky blue??
But then reality came crashing down around me. "I don't have money to go to a concert." I replied.

"That's okay." Sarah said. "I think I can get the tickets for free."

I was speechless for a minute. "Free?" I asked. "How can you get the tickets for free?"

"My ex-husband." She said excitedly. "It's my birthday and he knows I love Buble. He asked me if I wanted to go. I said yes, and he said, how many tickets do you want?"

"If you can get tickets I'll totally go with you!" I said.

"Yea!" She squealed. "Okay. I'll tell him I want two tickets and I'll call you back."

About a week later I got a text from her : I got the tickets. We're going on the 30th!!!

YEA!!!

Wednesday I got off work an hour early. Sarah met me at my house and we headed down to Tucson for the concert. We listened to Buble all the way there to get us in the mood. We talked and laughed and had a great time. The concert was great! He is a funny guy and a great performer. He talked and interacted with the audience. He joked around with his band and put on a great show. And his voice...ahhh, his voice...it's like butta!! :)
