M'fuckin Monday!!!

    Normally I have music or movies to talk about here and by "talk about", I mean list or recommend in an extremely casual manner.  But today I have far better news!!!!

Avett Christopher Sutton

  Our friends Chris & Kelly had their first baby around 3 in the afternoon 11.14.11.  Her due date was the 10th, but he decided to keep up the suspense and stay in the belly for a few more days, so she and I had coffee and chatted instead :)  Its pretty amazing, they chose to wait and let the babies sex be a surprise and that isn't too common these days.  Kind of rad!  Greg and I went over on Saturday night to have dinner with them, see the babies room & watch the fight.  All things went amazingly and then the next day Kelly said she was having contractions every 10 minutes or so from 3pm on... then a day later Greg gets the text: 

"Baby Button is here!!!  Baby Button is here!!!"

  I'm stoked to go meet him, they come home from the hosp Wed and I'm hoping that I'll have the lil amigurumi made for him :D (fingers crossed)!

No Reason You Should Forget The Date!

    So Gregs old roommate, Courtney, got married Friday.  Spent most of the day working on photos and not getting ready, which is what a good majority of the day should have been.  I ended up doing my hair over 3 times before giving up (and that was in the car on the way to Ventura) and we made it there 5 minutes late but ended up being on time because they started later *whew* anyhow, it was fun.  Got to meet some of Gregs friends and the groom, then a former (possibly renewed) & current contractor Gregs working with.  So I guess it was a fancy business date almost :) with awesome food & a slow dance.



We finished the night giving hugs to the bride and groom and grabbing a red velvet cupcake topped with cream cheese icing (shown in picture, minus icing that I devoured immediately).  Then left and drove home in the pouring rain, crawled in bed & passed out.

Quote of the day.

    "We've been waiting 3 years for the perfect person to give this to." bf's Pops

They have me an amazing old school looking leather jacket.  It has fringe and crazy business on it, but fits like a glove and has never been worn.  After some tailoring, I'll have an amazing jacket for rides!

I'm Single.

    I'm kind of alright with this.  Kind of, until today my sister says, "I'm surprised you're not married yet.  You're made for it."  Then I think of the couple of people I had seriously thought about marrying, there have been 2 & I would have married in a heartbeat had I been asked, realistically.
    I miss having someone there that I can tell all my dumb little things to and do stupid lil things with & the amazing cheesy things with.  Thinking back on it, those were some of my happiest times.  Sometimes I debate if its my habits, my sailor mouth, my beliefs (or lack there of).  A few random things I think of often in terms of "I would have to find someone who can deal with..."
  • I burp
  • I fart
  • I absolutely LOVE cold pizza
  • or Chinese for that matter
  • Cannot have enough beer
  • Late nights, late movies
  • I curse and I'm not ashamed of it
  • Nor am I ashamed of the fact that I LOVE HARRY POTTER

Doesn't help when your brother asks you, whilest on vacation and hanging out, "when are you going to squeeze out some pups" & your mother asks or "casually" brings up (at least once a week) her worries of when I'll marry and "be happy".
    I've been happy, wanted to marry twice but wasn't sure of the other.  I was wholeheartedly up for it but I think I'm a dying hopeless romantic and thats my friday night pity party.  Now I shall eat more of my cold Chinese food, open another beer, watch Gangs of New York and pass out in my underwear.. thats how I do.

One Of My Favorite Things:

    The smell of coffee as its being freshly brewed.  So when I stumble/tumbled upon the "little things" tumblr I was tickled pink.

And those are just a couple from the 300s.  Its just little things that make one smile.

    I'm so happy!  I got to talk to a handful of friends tonight that I haven't had much contact with recently.  Its awesome knowing that people who've been in your life at one point or another still think of you.  I wish I had a couple million bucks so I could gather up my friends and take them on a Disneyland tour!  How amazing would that be, the people that make you happiest and going to the happiest place(s) on earth - and of course a pit stop at Wizarding World Of Harry Potter (duh).
    
    Enjoy some random songs:
  • Daniel Blomqvist - Juninatt
  • Etta James - Don't Take Your Love From Me
  • Asleep - The Smiths
  • Easily Embarrassed - Little Trees and Fantasies

    Fuck yeah, its great to be Twenty-Eight!

        I would love to thank everyone who called, texted, left me comments on FB, and emailed me on my birthday.  I really appreciate it and as goofy as a birthday is now (for the most part), it really helps remind someone of how awesome their friends and family are.  Having my lovely Phillies, Canada folk and some friends in Portugal & Germany sending me wishes brings the biggest, most goofy smile to my face and I couldn't be more happy about it!

        Thank you to my lobster for taking me out to lunch & my Disneyland pins, my ma for taking me and treating me to a 16oz med. rare steak and drinks and lastly my wife who took me to second dinner, garlic fries & Guinness at P. Wexfords.  As for the day and that night I'm sending out thanks to coffee, wine, margaritas, Guinness and Jameson!         

        Everyone that ended up Vieiras Friday night, I Love YOU!  It was amazing to see so many people that I don't get to see as often as I'd like to (Danny, Gilbert, Branden, Derek P, Gabe, Michelle D, Chris & Sierra, Joey, Derek W, Justine, Brandon, Vicente and my lovely bartender Michelle).  Pretty sure the bar was packed and I couldn't tell you who all was there if my lil life depended on it.  Good people made sure that from the first step across the threshold until the moment I danced out, I had a whiskey & Guinness safely secured in my hands.  Hugs and magic tricks and dancing and singing and more hugs and yelling to people, the whole time I had the joy of hanging out with you fine folks was a total blast. Hugs & Kisses to you <3
    My Wife & Sierra

        I walked away from the day knowing I get to go to Victorias Secret, prep my gut for the Great Balls of Fire challenge at Salvador Molly's at the end of the month and I'll be able to keep myself toasty and cute with my new accessories thanks to my lil b & Zara.

    The Family Stone

    you were a little girl
    you were shoveling snow
    you were justa lil girl in a flannel nightgown, and you were shoveling
    snow from the walk in front of our house.
    and I was the snow, and I was the snow and everywhere I landed
    everything I covered, you scooped me up.
    with a big red shovel, you scooped me up
