I’m LOST
Allison sent me this today from a blog she reads. It cracked me up… “LOST… I am in an abusive relationship with this show. I can’t seem to break away from the horrible hold it has on me. If it were a boy, my dad would forbid me to date it. Lost is that horrible good looking guy that was mean to his girlfriend but told her just enough of what she wanted hear that she kept coming back for more. I know I need to cut my losses and walk away, but I can’t..I’m not strong enough.”

The Bucket List?
Okay, Jen and I went to see the movie, “The Bucket List.” This post is not a commentary on the movie, I will leave that to the experts, but about, well, just keep reading. The movie, as you may know, is about two old guys that are soon to “kick the bucket” and want to do crazy stuff. I had a slow day and Jen was able to get off work early, so we caught the 4:45 showing on this nice Thursday afternoon. We made it just in the nick of time and raced into the theatre. To our surprise, everyone in the theatre had just finished their early bird…

Subway, Eat Fresh!
It was a dark and stormy night, actually it has been all weekend. So what do we do on a dark and stormy Sunday night? Well, let’s go back a few days…. we had purchased a bag of potatoes because wanted to have baked potatoes for dinner one night and everyone knows that you can buy two potatoes by the pound which runs you like $2.00 or you can commit and buy way more than you really need and get the 5 pound bag for only $2.98! (gluttony and overspending – we are good Americans!) We have two of the five hundred potatoes that we bought as bakers, so what…

Happy Birthday to me and Happy Thanksgiving too!
I had a birthday yesterday… I am getting old. I can deal with it though because Kenny is soooooo much older (he is turning 30 this year!!!) This weekend I was so lucky to have Kenny home for 2 full days (Thanksgiving and the day after) and most of the day Saturday and Sunday! Whoo hoo! Thanksgiving day we hung out at home, watched movies and grilled up some great steaks for dinner. It was a perfect day. The day after Thanksgiving… Black Friday… we decided that nothing was worth us getting up at 4 am so we woke up around 7 and made our way to a few stores.…

New Bag
I just got this cute new bag at Target! It is even cuter in person. I saw it last week on clearance marked down from $25.00 to $11.00, but was too cheap to buy it. Yesterday I happened to be in Target again doing returns and it called out to me. I walked by, trying to avoid it, but then saw that it was marked down to $5.75! I had to get it… I really had no choice 🙂 It reminds me of the blogs designs that I have been working on. Do you think I can write it off as a business expense?!? 🙂

Two…
The number of posts we have written this month… two. (Actually three if you count this post!) I can’t believe we have been such slackers this month. So much has been going on so it isn’t like there was nothing to post about. We had a booth again this year at the Miramar Air Show and of course it rained! It has rained every year since we started selling at the air show… if you are keeping track, this will make it 4 years in a row that it has rained. I think we are bad luck. The air show was a lot of work as always, but having Jen’s…

And then there was one…
So, one of our new fishy friends died this weekend 🙁 It was the one Kenny had picked out and dubbed “Lure.” Maybe we should have called him “Week 1” like David suggested. The bummer thing is that Kenny was in Seattle when it happened… I think he kind of blames me for murdering his fish since mine is just fine. RIP Lure.

Support the Rabid
Danny & Tonita came over last night for our weekly Survivor get together. We have been doing this for years and will continue to do so until CBS cancels the show, one of us moves away or the Rapture happens. Kenny and I have actually watched every single Survivor season and this year looks like it won’t disappoint. Anyway, last night was also the premier of season 4 of The Office. And since this year it is on at 9:00 instead of 8:30, we get to watch it! For those of you who don’t watch this hilarious show I say go borrow the last 3 seasons RIGHT THIS MINUTE 🙂…

New Fall Design
Just trying out a new design for the new season. It is raining today and the weather is nice and crisp. It finally feels like summer is over and fall is here 🙂 Edited to add: I changed the site layout 3 times today… sorry if it was crazy. I am my own worse critic.. I really was not liking the first two… I think I finally settled on one I liked 🙂

Name our fish
Yesterday we were at PetSmart and saw two little fish that we just HAD TO HAVE RIGHT THAT MINUTE! 🙂 Most of you know that we are notorious for not being able to name living creatures… we have had a beta named “Fish” a hamster named “Hammie” and a dwarf hamster named “Little Guy” (cause he was smaller than Hammie). It was only by sheer luck that Pilot has a name and is not called “Dog.” I am sure our kids may just end up being “Kid 1” and “Kid 2” Anyway, our new little fish friends need names. The pictures aren’t the greatest cause fish are incredibly hard to…
