Well, I discovered Giligan has a sibling. I also discovered she is the runt. She is very cute, and comes around every now and then for a meal and some lovin'.
Well, me and Chuch did some investigating today and discovered that the fair will be open from noon to 10pm on the day we arrive, so I guess we will be going. Nothings final, but it looks promising.
Alex mentioned renting a car while we are down because he wants us to have 'our own car'. I told him it would be too expensive plus we aren't 21 (gay). So I guess if we absoloutely have to go somewhere we will just pay for the gas! =)
Alex is going in front of the board for soldier of the month next month. All the NCO's are saying that out of all the nominees he's going to get it. They are also talking about making him team leader. Apparantly he's getting noticed more than we realized. I'm very proud. Thats my boy!
I'm making roasted chicken with potatoes, onions, and carrots in the crockpot for dinner tonight. I'm very curious to see how it turns out. Also, my mother gave me a brilliant idea on how to not waste all the leftovers my husband seems determined not to eat. Freeze them. I know right? How could I have not thought of that before? Its perfect: fix dinner, freeze the leftovers, re-serve them a week or two later, adding extra spices or changing it up a little bit. It feels new, tastes new, he doesn't look at it like leftovers, and I am spared the trouble of cooking from scratch.
I got freakishly excited yesterday while passing the halloween candy isle. I ended up buying 4 bags of candy(one was exclusively for Willy because I don't eat candy corn)- tootsi pops, dum dums, peanut butter bars..... yummy. I also bought Willy doughnuts for his breakfast, but ended up eating a few of them myself. I feel kind of bad, but I rarely ever eat doughnuts or anything like that so I don't feel too horrible.
People never cease to amaze me. I am a pretty damn good judge of character, and I'm pretty privy to general human behavior, but sometimes they still just make me do mental double take. Like how judgemental people can be. In recent years I have become less judgemental than I ever thought possible. The people I "judge" are people I know very well, and I'm usually right. I know I am not perfect, but I'm not a horrible person either. And so far the number of people I've met who are worth me changing is very limited. As Marilyn Monroe said, if you can't take me at my worst you don't deserve me at my best. But then I just laugh and go on with my life. Do as you will, this shall be the whole of the law.
