Total Rip
Ya know what sucks?
Gas going up 30 cents in one freaking day!
Are they trying to kill us?
Shopping Mayhem
This year Britt decided that she wanted a Northface Fleece. So we’re lookin’ through the ads on Thanksgiving to see if we see any deals and we find Sports Authority’s Ad. It said that they were giving out gift cards that would range anywhere from $10-$100 to the first 100 people through the door!
We decided then and there that we would be in that magical group of 100 people. The store was opening at 5:30am, so my dumb butt suggests to Brittany that we arrive at 4:00am, because of the high volumes of traffic I was sure that Sports Authority would be facing.
…WRONG! There wasn’t a bloody soul in the parking lot at 4 o’clock in the morning! We had left at 3:30am and everything just to be on time! In fact people didn’t start showing up till 5:15am. To pass the time we took ourselves to McDonalds and called people who we knew would be really pissed if we called them that early! After about ten people were in line we decided to go ahead and get out of the car and head on up.
We made it about 6 minutes before we went whimpering back to the car because it was so cold. Only at a cost though, they made fun of us, we heard the lady in front of us snicker to her friend that “geez it’s not that cold out here!”
YES IT FREAKING WAS LADY!
So then we sat in the car and counted the people that got in line after we got out, till we got to about 81, then we headed back out to hell. It was awful and we probably only stood there for 15 minutes! People are stupid. The three girls in front of us must have just shot up heroine or something because they wouldn’t shutup and I don’t know anyone that talks that much at 5am. I kid you not, they talked about how they had already been to JC Penny and Kohls and how they mapped out in the ads what they wanted so they could run right to it. They were completely insane. I think if I had to stand out there a minute longer my butt would be in the slammer for poppin’ the three girls in front of me.
And all for…of course, the $10 gift card…even though I believed God for a solid 30 minutes for the $100 one…just wasn’t in the cards I guess!
Always A Joy!
So we’ve been outa the cake baking game for a short while, but made a return yesterday to make birthday cakes for the world’s most adorable child, Babebraham Monson!!
I don’t know what our problem is but every time we bake we seem to manage some sort of “uh-oh”.
I’m to blame for last nights “uh-oh” though! Britt put me in charge of making the icing, simple enough. I was only supposed to to double the recipe, but I accidentally quadrupalled it when I was only supposed to put in 1/2 cup of shortening, and I put four.
It would have been fine had my bowl not been so small. Have you ever tried mixing in eight pounds of confectioners sugar?
Yea, it makes a really big mess, especially when you turn the mixer on full speed. I was an albino.
Still tastes good though, we just have eight pounds of icing!
Things We Did While Driving 23 hrs. In 4 Days
1. Played the game where you pick a category and then try to come up with something that starts with every letter of the alphabet. The best was when we did countries.
Britt’s turn for the letter “E”: “Is Etherlands a country?”…pretty sure Netherlands is, but not Etherlands!
Trying to convince ourselves Uruguay started with a “Y”, that Xenia was a country, and that it was Heckilslovakia instead of Czechoslovakia.
2. Rocked out to the entire Nsync CD, every word to every song!
3. Discovered that for 20 years of our lives we have called the beloved restaurant “Cracker Barrel”, “Crackel Barrel”
4. I painted my nails and Britt got high off the fumes
5. Went through our phone books and bugged people who probably had no desire to speak with us
6. Discussed various environmental and political topics….JUST KIDDING!
7. We peed alot too, cuz Britt said I was a fish and couldn’t stop drinking
8. Thought about seeing how many trucks I could get to honk making that ridiculous arm movement, but Britt said it was embarrassing!
Mountains & Drivin’ Up Em’!
Britt’s sister’s wedding was up at a resort in the Smokey Mountains. It was located smack dab at the top of an enormo mountain and we got to drive up it!
One night we had went to get some food were on our way back heading up the hill. Now you did need to go slow because it was quite steep and pretty difficult to go very fast anyway. But we ended up behind the world’s worst driver who insisted on driving 12 miles an hour the entire way up. Do that for 20 minutes and you start to lose your patience pretty quick and move closer to a state of insanity.
We decided that when he turned off we would honk the crap outa him and roll down our window and give him a piece of our mind. He finally turned off and we followed through with our plan and felt just smitten with ourselves until we realized that we too were supposed to turn off. We were mortified that we had to now turn around and embarrass ourselves in front of the stupid driver we’d just finished honkin’ at for 2 minutes.
To top it all off Britt decided to pull a reverse down the mountain and we nearly ended up in the abyss of the Smokey Mountains. There’s nothing worse than feeling the vehicle your sitting in rolling uncontrollably backwards down a mountain.
On The Road Again…
We’re off to Tennessee again tomorrow to witness wedded bliss!
Wish us luck!
Maybe we’ll find husbands…
but probably not!
Cheesecake Factory
We went to the Cheesecake Factory last night to indulge ourselves.
Have you ever seen the movie Anywhere But Here, with Natalie Portman? Well there’s a quote in that movie that goes, “My daddy always said, when life gets rough and ya only have a dime in your pocket, go get your shoes shined!” We adopted that as our motto last night.
So anyways, it wasn’t very busy when we got there, so we thought it shouldn’t take very long…we were wrong. We watched twoables sit down after us, and get their food before us! We ordered chicken sandwiches and nachos, how long could this possibly take to prepare?
We entertained ourselves by lusting after the sinful cheesecake options for a solid 15 minutes..then we ate the nasty bread they gave us, critiqued our surroundings, then we were bored.
So, we proceeded to have a fit, and I do mean a fit. You probably woulda wanted to cut our tongues out had you heard the whining that came out of our mouths. We concocted ways that we would punish our waitress for depriving us for so long, they weren’t very nice. We did finally get our food though, and I think the people around us were happier about it than we were cuz they didn’t have to listen to us anymore.
Haha, oh yea, then we went to Cup O Joe and I spent a small fortune on the worlds worst drink only to take it into the bathroom where a lady spilled it all over me, and then as I reached for a paper towel to clean myself up, knocked my full cup of coffee into the trash.
Then we watched people shoot up heroine for three hours during our movie.
Such a lovely evening!
By the way, we totally say two teenagers making out in the church parking lot on the way home!
Supermarket Parties!
We’re driving down Rt. 23 last night, when I glance over at the Wal-Mart parking lot.
Without even thinking I proclaim, “Man, if the Wal-Mart parking lot were a party, there’d be a ton of people there!”
Brittany looked at me as though I were a complete idiot, and then she added, “Yea, well if the Meijer parking lot were a party, it’d be the loser kid’s party who was trying to be cool!”
Then we realized that both of our comments were retarded and we should shutup.
No butt
Ya know what’s really sick?
A deer with no butt.
Why does the deer have no butt?
Cuz the coyotes ate it!!!
