Weekend Adventure report

-
I am sure you all are dying to hear how my friday night dinner went with the blogging girls. It was amazing, and once things were comfy and cozy I was so proud of myself for going and I was happy to be around others.
I got to the restaurant on time, only getting lost once and immediately recognized one of the gals from her picture on her blog. I went up to her and said hey there, then I stood there contemplating my escape and wondering if I made the wrong decision. I was feeling a bit ackward, standing there waiting for the light to signal our table to be ready. I looked down at my palms making sure that they weren't all sweaty. I looked around the waiting room, and wondered if I should go hide in the bathroom until the place closed LOL. I remembered thinking the same thing when I was out on blind dates when I was single, ,there was always that period of time of flight or fight. I never flew the coop but there were times that after I met the guy I wanted to disappear into the night, never to return again. I just kept repeating to myself, I will be fine, no one has ever died of embarrassment LOL
I really wanted a drink to relax but I just kept telling myself I was being foolish and to grow a pair and suck up! We got our table and the rest of the girls showed up and it was great after that. It was a night full of conversation and really good food! I had the crab wontons, and crispy honey shrimp, then a dessert that was gross and I wont get again.
I got lost on the way home, wound up driving in a bad area of town, I was just guessing this since there was many stoplights nad no one was on the roads. LOL so I rolled up the windows and sung my heart out while trying not to freak out about how lost I was! I found the highway/freeway, after 5 years I still do not know what to call the highways out here! I got home, and put my jammies on and relaxed while watching the tele.

I cannot wait to do it again!!!!

I have once again over obligated myself

-
I have this really bad habit of saying, "Sure, I don't mind doing that". Of course what I fail to realize is that I am not super woman, and I do only have 24 hours in one day just like every one else. There is no reason for me to "one up" everyone else or prove that I can do everything on my list for the nest week: 1. Cook my magnificent stuffed shells for the Moose dinner Monday night, of course we just cant serve store bought shells and no I am not giving anyone my reciepe so, "Sure, I can cook the shells that night." 2. Have to pack for a trip to Williamsburg this weekend coming up. I have to figure out what I am going to wear if it is armpit sweat hot, or if it is just going to be breezy hot. I have golf shirts that do not have sleeves, but I only wear those for those "right before I think I am going to pass out from the heat." No woman with my arm flab (third boob) should wear sleeveless shirts. But there is a point. I have to do ...

Hello Uterus!

Obviously by the title you can tell that I am not talking about bacon today, nor am I talking about planting or photography so if you are a normal male you might want to move on. I am on the phone now, on hold with my doctor's office. They have not called me to tell me everything that is going to happen and to tell me that I am being over cautious and extremely difficult right now. I am waiting for them to tell me what to expect and why the hell I am going to be off work for 6 weeks. I don't quite understand the entire process and since I am paying for it, I should be getting color by number steps of exactly what they are going to do. I am not difficult in any means. i just want to request that someone hold my hand through the entire procedure and whisper sweet nothings in my ear and watch for tears coming out of my eyes in case I am still awake during the procedure. Yes, I know I watch too much television, but hey at least if it does happen I know exactly what to do right? So ...

Nachos

I made lunch for me today. Everyone was gone so I checked out my favorite food website ( ThePioneerWoman ). I decided on the Nachos since I could tweak it with the stuff that I had, and I really wanted some carbs. I cooked up some ground hamburger, added some taco sauce, and you can use enchilada sauce if you want, but I wanted to stay as mild as possible but with a hint of flavor. I also cooked a can of pinto beans. While that was simmering I chopped up some tomato, avocado, and shredded some Monterey Jack cheese and added a bit of cheddar to the mix. Then I took some tortilla chips laid them down in a pie plate, covered them with beans and the meat, added some cheese, and a few tomato's then I repeated, omitting the tomato's this time. I then put it in the broiler for a few minutes and it looked awesome I then took a generous helping, and added some fresh tomato's and avocado, added some sour cream and I ATE. It. ALL. UP. Yes, I had seconds. No, I am not sharing. Yes, ...
