Posting...just to post!

So I was informed yesterday by my good friend, Laura, that it has been a month since my last blog. I apologize for that...I guess I just wasn't aware that people actually read my blog. Updates include: finishing travel nursing and getting a new office job, finding a new apartment/roommate, starting to train for the Marine Corp Marathon which I will be running with my brother, Ben. Nothing too exciting has happened to me but I'll try and keep you updated as new events occur. Now addressing those who actually do read my blog...I'm sorry. I was reading back through and found multiple grammatical errors. You would never know that I been edamacated! Granted I did get my degree from NOVA, where the "N" stands for knowledge. Enjoy and I will post pictures from Easter at a later date.

Peace Out and Laura...I hope this satisfies your blogging expectations! :)

More GF Goodness

My Ga-hetto Fabulous Par-teh

So I decided that with all the stress in my life I needed to and should let a little soul out. In my craziness I decided to throw a ghetto fabulous party at my place. It was SOOO much fun! We had a great turn out and even had a keg of beer, root that is, there! We had awesome hip hop, rap, and r&b music. Breakdancing (which I known my neighbors loved me for) and food. I think this was the hardest part about the party. I mean what would you serve at a GF pary? I ended up having chicken nuggets, watermelon, cookies, chips, seven layer dip, m&m's...stuff like that. People did a really good job dressing up. I had to work the night before or else I would've given prizes for the best soul outfit. Now those who know me might be in doubt that I have it in me to be ghetto but I think you'de be surprised. I can GF it with the best of em'! Some people called the party racist which I personally think is insulting and absurd but just to appease we had all nationalities present. I even got to practice my tagging for part of the decorations! Enjoy the pictures. Sorry to those who couldn't come, you missed out. There's always Next time!

The Next Karl Malone

So here it is a month after I posted my last blog...I am such a slacker but hopefully this post will make up for it! Happy Belated Valentine's day to all! So I'm excited to be back in my home state of Va; 1, because of my family 2) certainly not because of my job and 3, I finally get the chance to play bball again. I MISSED it SOOO much! Well this past week we had an awesome game...our team I'd venture to say is the best out there! We played against GV and crushed them 59-20. One of the best parts was that we weren't giving it our all. The next best thing was yours truly got the title of high scorer...I guess the Jazz better watch out because I might be stoppin' by for open try-outs (even though they don't exist in the NBA, do they?!) 20 points, that might even be a game high score for me. It must have been the team outfits that we all had on. All of this is getting me in the mood for March Madness...go Blue Devils!

Black Friday

So Vicky and I decided to brave the stores the day after Thanksgiving this year. Zac of course had to work so Vicky and I woke the kids up early with the promise/motivation of Hot Chocolate and snacks to get to the stores early. We got out of the house later than we had wanted to and planned to but were still able to get some pretty slamming deals. An the fact that our cart had a screwed up wheel and was twice as hard to steer made it much more of a fun experience!(Remember Vicky?) All purchases I later realized had to artfully packed into my car to drive back across the country with...joy...while I was packing my car in December I was thinking..why the...did I buy all this crap! We were all exhausted by the end of the day!

Thanksgiving 2007

Enjoy these pics...esp the picturesque gravy. I mean it was so close to mom's it was ridiculous. I mean after we dealt with the grease fire things got better. I never realized until this year how much work goes into cooking the WHOLE Thanksgiving dinner. Thanks mom for all those years you let us stuff our faces after all of your hard work. This gravy pays homage to you :)

The Best and Only Quadruple Date I've Even Been On!!

This is a true story. At church one Sunday this guy whom I'll call Sparky (you know that whole protect the innocent stuff) asks me, "How do you feel about casual dating...?" I mean what do you say to that? H-No I don't want to go...or "you know, I really don't feel good about it"...Anyway I think I was at a loss for words so I said sure. Anyway, it turned out to be really fun. He asked what my favorite thing to eat was and of course I said Mexican. So off went our group to Albertos (which is this totally greasy 24-hr Mexican cuisine place) then to go ice skating. Well this is the part where you say, "Ah, how sweet. What a nice time!" Except for the fact that I totally biffed it hard on the ice right in front of my date just before we were about to leave. But don't worry my camera survived. I did however feel bad for my right knee which took the brunt of the fall...I think it's still bruised!
P.S. I was the only one that fell...
