The Foods All In & The Gang's All Out

Hung out with Chrome and E tonight, had a nice dinner thanks to E over at Outback. I'm feeling pretty good, but I could eat again. While at Chrome's I learned a new routine for the kids, movable jungle gym. They climb all over you and you run around the house, best with 2 kids in tow, and swing them around, up over your shoulders, then you give'em the round and round gorilla press slam spin (child under each arm or over each shoulder and spin like a merry-go-round) then deposit said children somewhere soft, i.e. couch. Normally after this they want more and more and more, keep it up till they're beat or ready to hurl. Then load them up on caffeine and doughnuts and leave them with their respected families. What?!? how else are they gonna like you, by feeding them apples, naw that's what parents are for, you're here to have fun while they have fun, period.

In a Muvico Far Far Away

Today was rather productive at school, didn't get out till 11 but it was worth it. After class I headed over to the Muvico to pick up my Star Wars EP III tickets, now the nay sayers my laugh and boo but this one has badass written all over it. Anyway so I pull in there around 11:15ish and the place looks medium-light filled. Showing up in off-duty work clothes I expect little attention but am propositioned by the first TUG I see. Looking little over 16 it goes in one ear and out the other and I said something like "Yeah, maybe next time". Purchase my ticket at the kiosk and off I go or so I thought. Strolling back to my car said TUG now has 2 of her tagle with her and again say something that goes right through me. I wonder if they are looking for a ride, some beer, some smokes, ass or other. I try and pick out the oldest one in the group who I thought for a minute would be 18 till I noticed she had too much lipstick and other assorted makeup on to try and look older. I said something then "goodnight". As I walked away a rice posse pulls up looking all but the same age as said tagle of TUGS and they start holla'n at them from 2 lanes over. Now if I would have known it would only take a pair of khaki's and untucked white shirt to attract the attention of 16 year old girls at the movies at 11pm on a thursday when I was in highschool that info sure would have helped. No worries though EP III ticket in hand and I'm assured this one is to be good. Now to find a theater in Florida with a digital projector and THX sound system and we'd be set. *EDIT* That's the 12:01 showing too so everyone seeing it after are llama's... SUCKERS!

Friday Night Sushi and Amityville "Don't Go In the Bathroom" Horror

So let's see where to start, ok planned to go out with Chrome and the Fam to get some All-U-Can Eat Sushi. Spec shows up out of nowhere yet is still "Up in the air", considering he's on the second story yes he was. Sadly on this outing we were missing E, but it's all good cause I ate enough for the both of us. So the 6 kids and 2 adults, Chrome's wife and sister-in-law, pile into 2 cars and head off, what you don't expect me to count myself, Chrome and Spec as adults right? Ok good. We get there and fun abounds first I'll start with myself, Z "I like to order All-U-Can Eat Sushi in groups of whole numbers, like the number 10", Chrome "The Tempura-Tamagotchi" and Spec "Can I get a Salad and a Fork". The wee-ones did surprisingly well considering they had wooden sticks, rubber bands and chicken nuggets at their disposal, I could'a thought of a whole lot of trouble to make with that list. And lastly I am taught the new names of the Sushi I'm eating like "The Blood Fish", "This White One Here", "Pink Fish with tail, did you know pink is my favorite color" or "Ewww what is that". I did also learn some child psychology of my own like using the same phrase for everything example: Child: "What's this can I taste it?" Me: "No that's hot, hot fish". 2 minutes later rinse repeat. Also how to read Kanji example: Child: "What's this say?" Me: "That's my name." Child: "Why is your name is here and here too" Me: "I come here a lot they know me". After the feast Chrome and I head off for "The Amityville Horror" which was basically "House on Haunted Hill 1975". Things to know about this movie, Van Wilder goes Wild in the 70's, it's easier to chop wood with your son holder the log, when people go psycho just leave don't be dumb and dead, if you ever hear the words indian, inquisition, burial, cemetery, death, murder or 3:15 don't buy that house even if it is $1, if your hot babysitter asks you if you french the answer is yes, if you have a choice of said frenching with babysitter or story time you choose french, don't lock the babysitter in the closet or you won't get your french lesson, make all your kids wear overalls they'll be easier to catch, stay out of the bathroom the drips blood and lastly the only thing true about this movie is that the house looked like that, the family was named Lutz, they did own a telephone and they were all crazy cause they made the whole damn thing up, suckers. So if you have your doubts use Google and if you still believe it's true I also work for CitiBank and I'll be sending you an email about your account.

The path that leads me there

Well Chrome and I have pretty much plotted a course for us to take to get careers that make us happy and pay well. Going to school, work and studying for extra certs might be hard now but it will all pay off in the end. We're setting out to make Neo look like that lone Hello Kitty toy in Disney Land.

Odd...

Been feeling kind of odd lately and I'm unsure as to why. Sometimes I can see clear as a new day and other times it's like L.A. with every truck on the highway. A lot of things have started to inch their way toward better and others well they've either fallen back to zero or not moved an inch. It will be nice to have stability back, when it gets around to showing up it better let me know or I'll be pissed.

Carrot Cake


Carrot Cake
Mmmmm, mmm you know what's the best thing about cake with fruit/vegetables in it? Eat it for breakfast and don't feel bad. This sucker took the longest to make out of all the dishes so far about 6 hours total, including cooling time and adding the frosting, but boy was it worth it.

Different is Key

So last night I'm walking home from my car and all the fricken street lights in the lot are out. Anyway it did give me a good chance to look up and catch about the best view I've seen of the night sky in awhile. I couldn't get a pic since the building lights were still bright but enough of the surrounding area was dark to make the stars really shine, for lack of a better word. Which also got me thinking about how each one is different and not symetric. Why is it everyone wants the perfect this and the perfect that, aren't the little imperfections what make someone beautiful to us? Which also goes back to my post about "What Happened To The Girl Nextdoor?". I don't want a damn perfect android next to me in bed I want a real female one with an ass and thighs with some meat on em. Not some damned Miss Universe with not a damn imperfection in her so she looks like she should be in the window at Victoria's Secret.
