Lauren's Birthday

This was when I was a tourist in my own city.
Riding our bikes downtown....only the greatest thing to do.

We ran into Ops Manager whilst riding around. True bike love.

Carry the one. Divide by two. Square it.

Love, love, love the tan man's face in this one.

Dinner at Eva's never fails. It is fancy and delicious.

Art's Festival. I obviously love 3D art the most.

Happy belated birthday to amazing great friend.

Christmas Party

The only picture I got from my company Christmas party. Of course it is of me and Citag. Besties foreves! This is right after I went pro at bowling and won the company bowling competition. That is right. Winner. I got lots of good stuff for that feat. Family birthday bowling has been a real benefit, I'll tell you what. The whole night was a good time and I work with some super rad peeps.

My Camera Case Is On the Fritz.

Last week I went to Jef Doog's show. Why was this night great?

1. The music. Jef is one talented guy; even if he never sings the praying song. My favorite! Everyone should experience his hip hop show.

2. I got to hang out with Lauren. That never happens anymore because she is the most motivated person on the planet and works two jobs. (We hate two jobs Lauren.) She is fun people...I have proof of this in a video I have of her rapping.

3. Megan came! We haven't got to hang out like we used too (she is half married) and I miss it. She is awesome and makes me laugh. I love the place we are both in now. Much better. Plus creepy guys stare at her and that is always entertaining.

I love the Port.

On our way out to see the Falcon we stopped at this little guy to take a picture. Even if you gave me a million dollars I couldn't tell you what kind of airplane it is. I can tell you that the propellers were on the back of the wing. Perplexing. I can also tell you there was something very suspicious in the back seat in a black bag. Scary.

I can tell you what kind this one is for a million dollars. Aviation knowledge is going to get me far in life. I can feel it. I mostly like that I think I am the President and that I have a Diet Coke. Classic.

Right before I became the Pilot in Command (I know Lauren and Pepper are so jealous of that) they said be careful not to touch ANY buttons when you climb in the seat. Okay! No problem retired military guy that can probably snipe my ass. So what do I immediately do after the warning? Hit buttons with my head as I am climbing in. Smooth. Very smooth. Also, I don't think Lauren should be touching that thing. I am just saying.

Totally rockin' the thumbs up. We were laughing so hard the entire time. Oh, aviation humor. So funny.

This was from a few months ago. I would like to note that I never get ready for work anymore. I give myself 15 min. to get ready and I look H.O.T. Don't blame me. Blame the fact that I can't sleep anymore.

Lauren and I decided that this was going to be our fun bus to Wendover. We go out to take a picture. We take a million because we are laughing so hard the entire time. Plus our camera guy is super shy, hilarious, and we were bossing him around. After we were finished we looked over and there were two buses full of guys waiting to board the fun bus. I bet they loved every second of our random poses. I bet they also loved my cordless phone. Work comes first. Duh.

The Roots

I knew it would be a great night one I saw this guy. He was as very adamant that if I took a picture of him it was to be a picture of him and no one else. Yes Sir. Check out that hair.

Yes, we were so close to the stage. Not. (Yes, so bringing that word back too.) There were a million people at this show. I couldn't find anyone.

I finally found these guys. How depressing would it have been if it was just me watching The Roots by myself with a sad face? My sad face is pretty good though, it might have actually been a good photo.

I am demonstrating to these guys how to say my new last name I am going to give myself. Yep, I made up a kick A. last name. It is going to have an exclamation point and so anyone who says it has to say it whilst pumping their arm in enthusiasm as pictured. I am also going to give myself a middle name while I am at it. I haven't decided on that one yet. Probably something cool like Emilee Bilbo Baggins.

How is it raining?

Jeff with the wax statue Brandon.




This kid tapped me on the shoulder and then did nothing when I turned around. Um, funny joke guy. So we pretended to take a picture of ourselves and this is how it turned out. Not too shabby. I think those two were mimes.

My favorite two people of the night were this dashing young couple.
Look closely. They traded one shoe with each other....kind of like Sadie Hawkins for shoes? How is that for romantic. Look at her throwing her head back laughing, this must be true love and happiness. Sold.

Lauren was showing me how stuck up girls look. If you are in the market to be a jerk girl and don't know how to look stuck up Lauren says you should squint your eyes, glare a little, and stick out your lips. It is as easy as 1,2,3.

What is better than Lauren's re-enactment of a girl we saw? I will tell you. This random kid jumped in the picture as I was taking it. I was all, "What the?" He was all, "I do what I want" And I was all, "Don't get up in my grill." Then I punched him Okay, didn't happen but I asked the kid his name because he looked familiar. Turns out he is a kid I used to babysit! What are the chances I would recognize him, let alone see him?

Reunited.

I was supposed to go to the show with Jordan but I couldn't ever find him and that was lame and sad. I finally found him at the end of the night. We saw Harley, another kid I used to babysit. I used to be rich due to my mass amounts of babysitting skills. Harley and Jordan are funny and I laughed a lot pre and post photo.

Sunday Fun & Jeff's Birthday!

I babysat my nephew's on Sunday. We jumped on the tramp forever. I would like to note that we have mad tramp skillz. That is right, skills with a z. Gangster style. Can't beat it. They are fun to hang out with. We also had lengthy conversations about life, World of Warcraft (or WOW if you know anything), The Ramones, how to make sandwiches, and how it was too hot to keep jumping on the stupid trampoline. I am too old for that.

After babysitting I went to Jeff's birthday party. Jeff is the husband of Lauren, one of my best friends. I also call him my Dad because they take me everywhere and always end up paying...like they are my parents or something. I am their permanent third wheel and I am embracing it like a champ. Although word on the street has it that they are replacing me with a new dog. Whateves. Check out his amazing cake with his C.D. on it. Brilliant. Nice work Lauren.

Wow. The birthday boy looks so happy. Sucks to get old eh?

Buds.

This was Mike's reaction to my suggestion of marrying his son.

This is how I look when I am secretly judging someone and how I look when I didn't get the memo for the photo op.

This is how I look when I am about to yell at someone. It is also how I look old. Still didn't get the memo.

Lauren and me are mad friendz. Yep, still a gangster. There will be more where that came from. Look at that, finally got the memo.

Dani and Me. Isn't she cute? I might steal her perfect eyebrows one day.

Now this kid, he likes to use the pick up line, "Did you see the season finale to I Love New York?" I hear it works like a charm. I mean, seriously, who wouldn't fall for that? Something to think about. I know I will.

Um. Wow. Sweet shirt. Sweet pose. This photo may never be topped.

Giant Alert

My friend's husband sent me this picture of her in the hospital. The most important questions would be: Is she really a giant? or Is it just a very small hospital room? You do the math.
