The day has come..

That I must once again dust off my superfriend suit and use my powers for good. Yes My most awesome powers of friendship have once again been summoned. I have friends in need of an ear and a shoulder. I shall oblige of course. However, there is that small part of me that says I should use my powers for EVIL. Sonia, you in particular will understand this, as you are not just evil but we recently talked of this. I have freinds who need comfort. I will and can help them through the tough times. My only problem with this is that everytime my super friend powers are called upon I lose that friend not long after. Either because they walk away or I do. It saddens me to think of losing my two closest friends (after Leland of course) to this cycle. Maybe something will be different, but I really doubt it. Ah well.... I've already dusted of my friendwoman suit. We'll see how this one goes. I can only hope the best for them both. I want nothing less for them, even if I do lose the friendship.

My how fast things move sometimes..

I got a call today from Barnes and Noble they asked if I could come in for a 2nd interview tonite. I had about an hours notice so I rushed about to make it look like I wasn't spending most of my day with a massive headache and drove up. At the end of the interview it was seeming like I'd have to wait another two weeks to hear from them again but no, I start tomorrow. I guess now I'm no longer a certifiable bum.

CSI Hampton..

It was friday night after sundown. I had just brought the dogs inside and was still stranding outside talking to Leland. That's when it happened. I heard the crunch (no brakes just crunch), and turned to see a truck swreve away from my neighbors car continue to barrel down the street swerve one more time before pulling into their apartment at the other end of my street. At first Leland and I thought she may have run something over surely she'd have at least braked a bit after hitting something. He kept an eye on the truck and I went to check Chris' car. My suspicions were confirmed she had busted out a headlight and dented in the fender. Leland grabbed back-up (Dana) and went up to the truck, while I informed Chris what had happened to her car. After talking to her, I noticed Leland hadn't come back and I didn't know he had used the buddy system so I was worried and started walking up. I met him about half way. He had asked the broad if she had just hit a vehicle at the end of the street. She told him if she had hit something she would have stopped. (Well obviously not we watched you! It's not like a friendly conversation starter. Hi how are you, and by the way did you happen to hit any parked vehicles on the way home? later, before the cops came she did come out with someone, turn on a flood light and check her truck for damage. Jerk.) So we did what you do when hit and runs occur and in no time the suits were there to make a report. Two for down the street and one for us as were we considered friendly and safe. The officer was a nice man and in a good mood. He joked with us and the other two down the street over the radio. When describing the woman to them he added with a chuckle "Possibly food all over her." (According to Leland and Dana she was wearing a bunch of tacos on her shirt.) She didn't answer her door to the suits, not such a good idea. They have an unfair advantage in all things. The officer asked us what the address was on the house that happened to be my own I replied with the obvious number. He looked at me funny and said "are you sure?" I told him that had been the number for the four years I'd been there. He still didn't believe me "On that side of the street?". After a couple minutes of this I started doubting what my address was, until he realized I was right and said to me "whew I thought we were going to have to go to blows about it." I told him as long as he dropped the duty belt and didn't call for back up I'd give it a shot, and most likely still lose. He recieved a radio call at which point he told us that There was still no answer at the womans door so The truck was going to be towed. As he said "They tend to want to get in touch with us real fast when we have their vehicle." The crime scene unit came out and took pictures of both vehicles and then the truck was towed away. I haven't looked today, but it still wasn't back yesterday (sunday).

My civic duty has been done.

Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree!

So for the last week Leland has been moping that he wanted to set up our (his) christmas tree but it was a full sized one and there was no room in our house. I would tell him we could make room, then he'd say no and mope a bit. He really wants it to feel Christmasey in our house. This happened last year but I couldn't have gotten to the tree by myself then. This year the shed a little more organized and I only had to move the bikes. So Monday I decided to set it up when he was at work so he'd come home to it. There's a picture of it and I only had to leave off a couple back branches at the bottom to make it fit :)

I did these with paint one day

They are funny and I wanted to share them. Please note the wedding picture of me and Leland. I switched our eyes and mouths. I look like and old dude trying to look like a woman, and Leland looks like PeeWee on crack. leland hates this creation and says we arne't ever having kids if they are going to come out looking like that. Yes it's working to my benefit!

Why I Love Laura and Dana

I have to say that these two are my best friends next to Leland.
They are wonderful neighbors and awsome friends. They are both beautiful people with smiles that brighten my day. They are always there if I need anything. We never have to "plan" anything because we live across the street and just end up doing things spur of the moment. They can't hide from me mainly because I have a key to their house WAHAHAHA! I've never had them crap out on me for anything, and they've spent enough time with me to be afraid but they aren't. We are always doing things for each other and fighting over whether we'll accept payment (yardwork, home repairs, letting dogs out, etc.) For the last month or two I've been letting Adley out on nights they both work and I have no problems with that. She's a very good dog. But they decided to buy me a glorious gift. The carpet cleaner attachments for my vacuume! I have been LOVING it but now I need to get them back. Oh yes they will have kindness bestowed upon them in the vast amounts only ROCKBAND can dish out. I just need to finish formulating my plan. Here's some pictures of my vacuume and then the new stuff I have for it. WAHOO! (Yes the pictures are sideways just give me props for making it work at all at the library!)
