Luckily for me, I get to sit in my cozy lil' cube from 9:00am-5:00pm today and enjoy taking wonderful phone calls! Okay, okay...it's not that bad. I'd rather work an eight hour shift over a shorter one any day! I get two breaks and a lunch...which means sushi! (If I'm still feeling up to it) :)
So over the past couple of days a lot of stuff has happened and it's been pretty exciting and eventful. Thursday night was the night we had all of the snow so Tyler and I were gonna go sledding with some friends (on a kayak, may I add), but we ended up not being able to go. I was almost completely ready, but then realized that I needed some boots that were out in the car, so Tyler went out to get them for me and to start the car to warm it up... I guess on his way in, he realized that our elderly neighbor was on the ground crawling towards his apt... in the freezing cold snow and ice. He ask him if he was okay and found out that he had slipped and fell. Tyler tried to help him up, but he said it hurt too much to try to get up so he crawled all the way back to his apt. Tyler went back to check on him and he had made it into his apt, but he was still on the ground...he was definitely hurt. Tyler came back up to our apt and got our rolly computer chair and took it down to the old man. I went with him and after struggling, Tyler and I got him into the chair. We figured this way he could roll around...? Right?? Well, he got to talking and we found out that he is 75 years old and he lives completely by himself. He does have a daughter, but quite honestly, he kind of made her sound like a real bitch and would not give us her number as she would 'probably get mad for calling her when she's working at the university'. We asked him if he needed us to call anyone and he said no. We then asked if he had insurance and he said yes...so that was good. He kept thanking us and thanking us and said he was okay and was just going to go to bed. We left him, but Tyler and I both knew that we needed to call the police and get someone to check on him to make sure he didn't break anything. We did and from there on, we don't know whether he went or not...but we felt so much more relieved that he got some professional help. We still need to get our computer chair though....
After all of that, we finally got out and met up with our friends at Starbucks...couldn't think of anything to do as they had already frozen their butts off 'kayaking', so we ended up going to Applebees to get some dinner... Fiesta Lime Chicken....mmmmm....and karoyke... = humerous night. It was pretty late once we left there so we all called it a night.
On Friday we hung out Derek, one of the guys from Ty's unit. We went to a little cafe that his girlfriend works at and ate there. Sat and chat for a while, then Tyler and I went and paid bills...yay!!! Afterwards, we went to a friend's house, (more like other parent since they're our parents' age) and chatted with her for a while. That family is awesome! Tyler got a bike last summer, a gsxr, and we would go to bike night at Beef O' Brady's every Thursday night. We met them one of the nights we were there as the WHOLE family rides...which is pretty freaking awesome...even the mom! Pretty badass I must say. Anyway, we gave her some company and then went and bought groceries for dinner, cooked dinner, and had surprise guest. Derek and his girlfriend ended up coming over and had to stay the night because they got a flat tire and then Daniel (Stewie) was already planning on staying the night, so we had a full house. This morning I left for work with a sleeping Stewie on the couch, a sleeping Derek on the air matress, and sweet kiss on my lips goodbye from Tyler. Now I'm here at work while the time is passing rather quickly and waiting to get off for work to head home to meet up with the gang and then we're all off to Buffalo Wild Wings for some fun! Though I have to work, it's going to be a good weekend!
I saw this on a few other blogs, so I thought I'd do it, too!
1. Where did you meet your spouse and did you instantly know it was love?
Tyler and I have actually been friends since the sixth grade. It's funny, but we used to talk on the phone almost every night for hours on end...I'm talking four-five hours about EVERYTHING! We liked each other all those years ago, but of course, we were SO young so it wasn't anything. We texted each other a little bit throughout HS but never hung out and nothing serious AT ALL. Then the night he came back from basic and AIT we hung out and it all started from there...and I couldn't believe it. I loved every minute of it though!
2. What is your favorite room in your house?
Probably the bedroom. The bed is so damn comfy and I like the decorations a lot.... but then again, I really like to relax in the living room. :)
3. Can you wiggle your ears?
Nope, but I can wiggle my nose like Bewitched!
4. What is your evening ritual?
Cleaning....sadly. I guess it kind of relaxes me. Plus, I cannot go to bed with a messy house!
5. How many hours of sleep do you need to function?
I don't even know anymore... I guess at least 5? (though I wouldn't call myself functional)
Happy Weekend everyone!!
