WOW!

Read what Aaron has to say...

Can I get a WOOT WOOT?!?

WHAT A GREAT WEEKEND!!

I learned a lesson tho: Check blogs over the weekend! I missed SparklesMPLS at Wilde Roast on Saturday... :-(

I didn't have to work at the Targay, got to walk the pups 6 miles (I thought Akima was gonna drop-kick my ass into the lake), saw a friend from out-of-town, and met some cute-ass boys!!

Friday night I had a date with a friend of a friend. He's HELLA-sexy and an INCREDIBLY smart/informed man. I was intimidated by him. We went to downtown Hopkins and had dinner at Chipotle. It was good food, good company and a FUCKING beautiful evening!! We went back to his place and talked about where he had moved from and some of the stuff he did down there. He's a talker, so good thing I'm a listener, huh? :-) He's definitely someone I want to get to know...

I surrendered my shift at Target on Saturday and I think it was one of the BEST things I could have done for my soul. I got to sleep in until 10:30am and then cleaned my room and did some laundry. Went out to Calhoun and did one lap and got a call from George saying he and Jer were on the way. *DING, DING* ROUND 2!! The girls were SERIOUSLY disgruntled with me about a third of the way around. They made it and I don't think I have EVER heard Yuna snore as long as she did!

I crashed (accidentally) while making my bed... And woke up around 8pm... Had to call M-boy and explain why I missed dinner plans. SO I got jazzed up and called George and he pulled some 'I'm tired' crap on me so I made plans with Carlos to meet up at Fridays.

Marla had just gotten off work so it was AWESOME to hang with her. We went over to Copelands and had dinner and cocktails. Carlos and I continued over to the Underground.

I like it! My only issue with it (besides the smell of 'tina'-sweat once the circuit boys hit the floor) is that I couldn't see anyone... It's a non-smoking bar and they fill it with theatrical fog. I could have been standing 4 feet from Brad Pitt and I would not have known. Oh well... At least it's not smokey-smokey. I went upstairs for a friend to smoke and almost choked on the cigarette smoke at the top of the stairs...

DJ Richard Cawood was spinning that night and I have known him for quite some time. He did a PHENOMENAL job and I'm VERY proud of him. He actually came out to softball on Sunday and I got a chance to sit and chat with him. I miss hanging with him. Needs to happen more often.

Let the bar (alone) at a decent hour and got home safely. Cuddled up with my babies and went to sleep. CRASH! BANG! ZAP! Fucking storm! It was SO loud Yuna was freaking out... Therefore, I can't sleep with a 60 pound black lab trying to sit on my head. So at 3:50am I'm trying to get my neurotic little companion to cool her jets while her sister snores away on the end of the bed.

Anyway... Softball got ALL screwed up because of the rain, but they moved the games to some GREAT fields over by the Quarry in NE Mpls. I wish we could play there ALL the time. We got stomped by the Rators (I had to pitch... 'nuf said) and had to reschedule the 2nd game because some of the team members couldn't make it because of work conflicts.

I met up with a guy named Kyle for coffee (Italian soda for him; smoothie for me). He's a cool guy but I'm not sure how to take him yet... He lives VERY well and I've had too many POOR experiences with people who have money... I dunno... Need to hang with him some more to see what he's all about.

Also set-up dinner plans with a cutie-patootie for this evening... More on that one tomorrow!!

I'm done for now. Laters!

Raincheck!

Well... considering my weekend has now gone to SHIT, I'll have to make the movie thing happen some other time. Maybe Sunday after softball... I'll be tired, but either of those movies should keep me awake!

Comments...

[SOAPBOX]

Kinda along the lines of Jimbo's statements yesterday about faux bloggers, I'd like to say something that pisses me off.

I commented on SparklesMpls' blog and some anonymous jack-ass tries to be cute. What I don't understand is 1) if you're gonna comment, own up to it and 2) comments are there to continue, build-upon or affirm someone's statements so don't get all sassy up in someone else's blog (unless that's the nature of the post).

Just say who you are if you don't have a blog. If you comment a few times, then we at least know it's someone who reads our blogs occasionally. Hell, just label it 'bitchy queen' at the end so we know it's the same person. GOT IT?!

For all you anonymous people out there: CREATE a blog. It's easy. It's fun. Be sarcastic. Be eloquent. Just be yourself.

Wow... It's been a while!

I've been feeling like ASS lately but it's finally starting to go away, so I should be alright.

My weekend was ok but fairly uneventful. M-boy and I went out for our 'official' date #3 on Friday. He took me out to eat at California Pizza Kitchen and then I treated him to Shrek 2. I LOVED the movie (if anyone wants to see it and needs someone to go with, let me know! I'll watch it again!) and the company was good.

We came back to my house and played with the pups, but I told him it was time for him to go and he seemed to be upset with me about it. I have been trying to get to bed at a decent hour AND trying to keep M-boy out of my pants... I dunno... I'm not too sure what I want right now.

Saturday I felt pretty blah and struggled through my day at Target. Once I got home I napped, then had a cocktail, chatted online a bit and then headed to bed. WOOT! EXCITING!!

Sunday we went to the Rainbow Rooster for Brunch. Now, I have been giving these guys WAY too many breaks when I've been there... Did you know they don't serve tomato juice as a beverage? The don't use Coke or Pepsi and still charge $2 for a soda. I decided to have the brunch buffet... It looked good! Well... Of the 20 or so items, the corn and biscuits were the most edible of all. My friend tried the chicken fried steak and found that it had been SEVERELY undercooked. Of those who ordered off the menu, not a one got it how the menu described it. It's kinda sad.

Also, the service was incredibly poor. I mean, we were his only table...

HOWEVER, one of our group got a hamburger (not with what he wanted on it, but this is supposed to be a compliment) and he said it was VERY good. So, I will NEVER hit the brunch there again but I'll gladly go in and try their dinner selection.

SIDE NOTE: The bartender on Sunday morning was SUPER HOT!!

Spiderman 2 was next on the list. We drove up to Brooklyn Park and went to the Regal cinema up there. We were early, so Tim and I decided to hit their little arcade and guess what was there??

C'mon, GUESS!!

DANCE, DANCE REVOLUTION!!

I inserted my dollar and demonstrated why this whiteboy should NEVER dance in the daylight. But, OMFG I LOVE that game! Carlos and I played it after the movie too (3 times)!!

Spiderman 2 is a GREAT movie! They did SO well with the villain, Tobey is as hot as ever, and the guy that Mary Jane Watson leaves at the altar is a HUNK!

WE decided to head over to Ron's for the 4th of July celebration. He and Will have a beautiful house with a gorgeous backyard. I hadn't eaten much all day and of course there was drinking to be done.

Now, I'm a fool and I'm swearing off alcohol for a while. I drank too much for how little food I consumed AND not feeling well on the top of it wasn't pretty.

Ron's best friend was there and, of course, I think he's cute. That's the way it ALWAYS works... So... Needless to say the cute boy thinks I'm a freak. Oh well.

So... I get a ride home and pretty much pass out. I feel like ass the next morning and them the 'flu' also decides to kick in. Not pretty... Not pretty at all...

My fever broke this morning but my tummy is still a bit on the icky side... I'll try to eat lunch today and see how my body does with that.
