I like shopping?

What? Shopping? Sure! Man i feel like i'm becoming a girl. I've been shopping this saturday and today and that's more then what shopping i did last year for myself. I like it! lol. I bought some awesome flipflops today at AE. Very cool. I'll wear them tomorrow with one of my new outfits.

Tonight was quite cool if i may say so myself. I worked frecken long and didn't get home til about 6:40ish and took a shower. Then left to the stinken mall and got me some flops. Did i mention their cool? :) Anywhooooo, since i was on the south side of town i dicided to call up my friend Andrew who i hardly ever see. Love that dude. Andrew then invited me to a movie at the campbell 16 to watch miss little sunshine. Funnier then what i expected. I must say though after sitting in their chairs there i much rather pay less for a ticket and also sit in a comfy chair. After the show we embarresed Becca with a loud birthday song so everyone could hear. All the three people walking to their car. I did notice them picking up the pace as we started to sing....humm. Wonder why they did that? That's about it for now... sleep is much needed.

The Landing


Branson was a blast to say the least. I really enjoyed being out of town with friends, hanging out, and goofing off. I know, for me atleast, it was a much needed time to get out of "the springfield" and get a breather. I really had a good time. Especially when we did the shopping. I got myself some hot shorts with some realy hot t-shirts to go with. I look great! I dont' mean to brag but i just do. :) great colors that match and wala! you have a good looking guy.

We also went to the lovely titanic to check out the rave. I must say it was good to see once but probably not more then once. Plus you had to turn your cell phones off and no camera's. What the heck is that all about? I must say i was tempted many a times to just whip out the cam and take a few picturs. I was good though. The cool part was blind folding courtney and taking her there. I pretty much knew she had a good idea where i was going to take her but i really kept her guessing with the blind fold. Not to mention the mystery it adds plus spunk to a evening. I must say I realize more and more i'm such a romantic.

Drove home that evening because everyone was beat, including myself, just so they can rest. Courtney, Jona, and chad were all out with in 10 min. of driving and I listened to my main man Franklin softly in the back ground! It was a nice ride home and a good time. The only bummer was that i couldn't find any shoes that i could fit in. I have wide feet so i need some wide shoes but most people don't stock them. It's all special order.

For all who are wondering about "the question"... nope i didn't ask. Had nothing to do with being chicken, scared or nervious. It was for other reasons that i won't mention yet. I 'm also thinking that you know what? I want to be chased for once by a girl. So I'm thinking of just see what girls actually put fourth the effort of going after a guy they want. To tell you the truth, i'm sick of chasing and chasing and putting myself out there and have nothing to show for it. I hope you guys don't miss understand what i wrote. Anywho, i'm frecken tired and tomorrow will be very intresting. Night night.

Off we go!

Well, i'm waiting here for us to leave to go head down to branson. Should be intresting since I got a phone call from courtney and she seemed pissed of. Well, i'll try to cheer her up and I hope when she gets to her car my little gift i left her from last night will also help. I'll post some pictures when I get back. :)

Birthday galore




The privileges of being a Uncle is unsurpassed by any amount of money, fame, or fortune. It's that time of year for our family where we have a ton of Birthdays and it was my nephews birthday a couple of sundays ago. So his mom, my lovely sister martha, wrote me and asked me if i was going to be at his birthday shinedig at our house. AND of course i'm the number one uncle, I HAVE to be there. hehe. Really... they do love me that much. I didn't nominate me...they did! :)


Anywho back to the story. Well he got a Nintendo DS for his birthday and i figured what better present then a new game to go with your new DS no? So i ran after church and picked up the Mario kart game for him. He absolutely loved it! :) So this up coming Sunday is my neice's birthday she's going to be 15. 15! man... time flies. I used to change her dipers and now she's a young lady. Man if that doesn't make you feel old, i don't know what will...lol. Anywho i haven't yet decided what i should get her. Any suggestions? Also it's her little baby sister b-day too. She's going to be one years old. Alreay? Where does time go?

WoNdErInG mInD


These past few weeks i've been thinking alot about doing this branson trip. As much as i want to go... there is a part of me that doesn't. Reasons why? Nervous. Nervous about going down to branson to have a great time with a girl that i'm intrested in but the same intrest isn't there. Nervous about getting my hopes up and falling on my face like the norm. Nervous about the answer i will get when i ask her a question, that i know that answer too. Nervous... there are many other things i can list off, but i'll spare you the reading. As much of the things i'm nervous about, there are many more that i'm actually can't wait to do. Can't wait to hang out with my dear friends Chad, jona, and courtney, Can't wait to see courtney all dolled up for a night out of town. Can't wait to race on the go-karts. Can't wait to go shopping and have a good time doing it. Can't wait to enjoy a round or two of miniture golf. Can't wait to sit down and have a laughing good time over dinner. Can't wait to see courtneys face when I surprise her. Can't wait to spoil my good friend court-the-ney. Can't wait to see what cool cloths i was able to find. Can't wait to crack up to see jona, courtney, and chad to find me a hat. lol. But i've been thinking quite a bit about this day trip. Excited, nervous, anxious, and most of all... just getting out of this ol' town of springfield.

Early bird.

I'm just ExHuStEd... Gesh... waking up at 5am is a killer. I'm hopeing today we'll be done by noon, 1pm the latest. Gesh today was a long day though. Woke up at 5am and got to work around 6ish and got home around 4:15pm. When i got home I took a shower, went voted, ate some dinner, and played with my nephew a bit. Tryed to get some shut eye but my phone would not stop ringing. It rang both times right when i was asleep. Then by the time i did get to sleep, I told courtney to come over and wake me up to help her move in. She did ever so gentely, pooking me on my side. That was cool but i prefer a back rub or head scretched. :) Pooking was fine though, it was a nice gentle awakening. Anywho, off to bed. 5am come too quick.

It's moving time...

Well ladies and gents it's time for the colleges to get back into full swing of things. People moving in, churches going to more services (which if you have the good times it's not so bad, but ours are kinda jacked), and football season will be comeing around the corner. Today after work i went to help my friend courtney move into her dorm. Stinken hot outside but got r'done. Everything got moved in with a few trips to storage bin. Thanks to the help of the Getty's. Anywho, now comes the fun part...hehe. Courtney has this chair forgot what it's call but it's like a satellite dish. Oh, i remember... it's a papasan chair. Anywho, I told her i can fit it in her car and she was like no way, so i told her i'll buy her dinner if i couldn't fit the chair in. Then she replied, if i do get it in she'll buy me dinner anywhere, no price limit. SO, me knowing that i can fit that in since the many years of packing for trips and my friend jeremy and I were in charge of packing the trailer everytime the youth group ever went anywhere. So i started to try to fit it in the car and it wouldn't fit so courtney was laughing, which it was funny... if you would have seen it. I was seriously blown away that i couldn't fit it in the little honda. Now i had to buy her dinner (nothing new though, i always buy her dinner when we hang out. :p ) I was wanting the dinner... and on top of that i had to a challenge in front of me which i loved. Problem solving... my "gift" per say. I mean who doesn't want to win a free dinner anywhere you choose and no price limit? Shoot i do! Well, back to the story...Then i realized that the front door on the car is bigger and I opened it up and wala! IT FIT! MUHAHAHA! I won a free stinken dinner! man, so exciting for me. :) Made my day honestly... well, just hanging out with her can make anyones day but this was a free dinner! So, thus far this is what i have in mind... Red Lobster, which i have never been at. Texas road house, with has awesome steak. Outback steak house, once again deliscious food. I had another one but i forgot it for the moment. Well, to end the great evening with some MORE news, we won our match tonight. Close one but we won. They were complaining about our server when they were on ct side, which they won 9 rounds them and 6 rounds us. Then we switched over to theirs and we won 11 rounds and they only one 4. LOL. Maybe they should of stuck to our server. lol. All in all a great day!

-deposited a check
-finished all the walls of the house in this frecken heat (101 degrees)
-help courtney move in
-won a free dinner anywhere, no price limit! :D
-won our match! ( 17-13)

Gotta love it! Peace out for now, i gotta get up at 5am. Eeek! it's already 12:12am. BOO!

Frustrations of life.

I'm sitting here late at night when i should be in bed, thinking about a ton of things and yet non of which my mind has spent too much time on one subject. Just bouncing from one thing to the next. It's all realated though and that's what's strange about it. They're all connected by one thing or another. Thoughts that to be honest confuse the hell out of me. You try to play the devils advocate with yourself and then try to reason and then just to answer a question with another questions. Strange... yes, but i'm sure many of us have been up at night thinking. Sigh... i can't write anymore... i'll finish later. just tired of thinking. Not in the mood to think about writing. I'm not a writer, people. I usually write what's on my heart but tonight that's not something im willing to do. Not tonight. Thinking is what needs to be done. Honestly I should take my brothers advice and do something else. Something that will take my mind off of girls. That's one of the reasons i've been wanting to buy a run down house, piece of land or a loft so i can be occupied by that instead of girls. Seems like every turn i make, it's a dead end. Don't get me wrong i'm not wanting a pitty party because i enjoy myself with or with out a lady. I would rather go, at this poin of my life, with someone to enjoy it with and share the joys of life and adventures. You know what the heck i will talk about what i feel and one of the things i've been thinking about for about a week now. Ok, this has been bothering me ever since i've found out. I was told that someone, i won't mention names, told a lady friend of mine that she needs to stay away from me. I'm bad news and I go from one girl to the next when i get bored of them. I honestly was VERY upset. I just didn't show it to her. Where does this person have the audacity to say this about me? Who is she to tell a stranger what she should do when she has NO idea who i am. She knows nothing about me, and the only time we've talked is saying hello when i saw her at church. Where does she get this information from? I really would like to know who else she told this too? I'm to the point of just saying "I'm just gonna get the heck out of the frecken bible belt" This is so ridiculous, what happened to christianity? It seems like the most fake, outrageous, hypicritical, back stabing is here in the belt. People should focus on their own lives instead of butting in on other peoples, especially when they know nothing about me. they have something to say, come to my face and talk to me about it. Want to gossip, fine, do so but don't be surprised when you find me coming to talk to you about you running your mouth. I'm not afraid to confront them and tell them to stop, i've done it before and they didn't stop so guess what? Their not in my life anymore. Honestly i really don't know how that affected her dicision or not. My last person i tried to date, same thing happened, someone was talking crap about me. And then on valintines day she broke it off. That was about 3 years ago. I've never, ever went from one girl to the next because I got bored with her or anything of that nature. I've told them exactly why it wouldn't work. Weather, it was communication, or something else, they knew why it wasn't working out. Anywho...i really have to go... just getting more frustrate as i write and my hands can't type as fast as my thoughts are comeing. So until next time, Take this advice to heart. If you want to know someone, just ask that person. See how he treats his friends, treats you, treats his family and any rumors that come your way bring them up and be honest with them because with out that, you don't have trust.

Need a head scratch :(

Man, today was such a off the wall day. I had my mind all over the place and didn't have a appitite to eat anything. Work was what it was...work and went along like normal. Stinken hot, humidity was the killer more then the heat. As the day went on i just felt worse and worse. As much as i love food it's weird for me to see food and want to vomit at the sight of it. Today was such a day. Worked all day and didn't eat a thing since breakfast with "the Chad" at 7:30am. I figured all the stomach pains and headache was from not eating. Cooked me up so good ol' romin noodles, the meal of champions, lol. Ate a few bits and went to lay down. Well to make a long story short, i walked to the bathroom and threw up violently. Quite gross if i may say so myself. I felt like a river of chewed up romin noodles coming out of my mouth. Anywho, i'm not feeling good what so ever. Courtney offered to get me some meds or food but i just couldn't eat it if she brought me some. I must say i was nice of her to offer. I really could of just used a head scratch to help ease the headache. Nothing like feeling the warmth of someone else when your freezing and sick scratching your head. That's so relaxing. Anywho, off to bed i go. Hopefully it will be pouring in the morning because i could use a day off. We all could. Especially with the wedding around the corner and I have a date who has spent alot of time to get all prettifed *it's a real word trust me*. Ok, im off to get some rest.
