Just found this article

http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/today/index.ssf/2008/12/holland_township_family_angry.html

about a family who named their son Adolf Hitler Campbell and were mad that a bakery refused to put his name on a cake. Really bizarre family. Hey Brownie, aren't you from Lehigh Valley?

FINALLY!

I received my first Christmas present a little early from DTR. He finally figured out how to get a replacement title for his old truck which has been sitting in our driveway for 2 1/2 years! We are donating the truck to Purple Heart foundation and they come today to pick it up. We won't be the complete white trash couple on our block anymore. When we told our neighbor that the truck would be gone by the end of the week, he just nodded like, THANK GOD!!! DTR's cousin said that when we go out of town for Christmas we should fake out the neighbors and park another really trashy car there while we are gone just to freak them out. That old truck got us through a lot of moves and was a nice little truck but it needed to be retired and off my front lawn!!!

Micro Brewery in Sedona, AZ


While in Sedona, AZ I went to a microbrewery called Oak Creek Brewery & Grill. I had their sampler called the 7 dwarfs and added the seasonal brew which was a delicious Belgian style witt. If you ever find yourself in this area...check it out. Good food, good beer and great location...

Anyone want a new dog???


I found a doggie abandoned at a gas station about 20 miles outside of Dallas. She is a really sweet dog and luckily I work with a bunch of animal lovers. One of my co-workers is fostering her until we can get her updated on shots and find someone to adopt her. I can't understand how anyone could just leave a dog by themselves in the middle of nowhere.

Sedona, Arizon





I am in Sedona for a work meeting and it is just beautiful. This morning we went for a quick 2 mile walk around. The views are just so breathtaking. The weather has been perfect, 65 during the day and cool at night. Tomorrow we are going on a Jeep tour.

Austin - Halloween




Even though I felt like crap, we went out to 6th Street for Halloween. I didn't end up dressing up but we had a lot of fun watching all of the people walk around. We drank for awhile but went back to the hotel relatively early because DTR had to go set up a nurse really early. Saturday, before heading out we went to Phil's Icehouse for Burgers with Ass Gagger. Those jalepeno buns are great...

So, I got into an interesting discussion the other day. I was telling the other person that I didn't really see why my husband and I would want to change our lives by growing up because we basically get to do whatever we want. Our philosophy has always been work hard, play harder and I don't really have any desire to grow up. Hence no children or real responsibility other than work or dogs.

This person I was talking to said that it is our duty as human beings to make a contribution to the world and that some day you do have to grow up otherwise, you will look back on your life and it won't have meant anything. While I am not sure I completely buy into that, I think he had a point. I think the moments I feel the most at peace and happy are when I have accomplished something that isn't all about treating myself. I get into this cycle where I reward myself for everything...if I have a bad day, I reward myself...if I have a good day, I reward myself. Things stop being as special if I am constantly rewarding myself.


It's been an ok day, time to go drink now...more whining later!!!

What to do?


What to do with a visiting hasher? Not So Silent Bob visited this weekend and it was drunken and lots of fun...but we did drag him to a cousin's 4th birthday party! We played on bouncy things for a couple of hours, laughed a whole lot and then went back to drinking! Donnie and Bob went to the first game that the Texans won on Sunday and had really awesome free tickets on the 40 yard line while I went golfing with my brother-in-law. We drank the final 9 holes, about 2 beers a hole and cracked ourselves up. We bet to see who would lose more balls, I lost 3 and Tony lost 4 so I won! (Really, we bost lost cause we suck!!!) It was a great weekend!

What a great weekend. I agree with Brownie...it may have been one of the Kimchi's best. One of my favorite quotes from the Invihash came from Dairy Godmother...she said, "you know, this weekend has been great. Net has been so low key!" Now, he still had some classic Net moments like yelling at me to get him beef and instead enjoying the peanut butter from the rice crispie treats or puking on the pub crawl in lovely downtown Walsenburg and making everyone stop to admire his handywork...but it was a really fun weekend. DTR was drunker than I have seen him in a long time and dancing up a storm. I had a lot of fun hanging out with Susan Mopper (aka Titz) and $100 (aka Flabongo air guitarist) and complaining about how "normal" we are for hashers. I mean I am not a swinger and don't normally get naked in public, so I am super conservative hasher. HAHAHA! Brownie called me Dora all weekend and pretty much considers it my name. I kept saying "Hola, me gusta beer." and then didn't get until later the silliness of saying that and not saying cervesa. Although DTR's name is retard, I do believe I have much more retarded moments. (insert monkey noises)

Cruise

DTR and I went on a cruise to Cozumel, Grand Cayman and Jamaica. When you get off of the ship in Cozumel, you walk into a mall that has a Starbucks, Burger King and Pizza Hut. I just don't understand this. If I wanted to go to places like that I would have stayed home. I am not in Mexico to go to Starbucks, COME ON! DTR and his dad went Scuba diving while we went to Paradise Beach and ate yummy guacamole.



DTR's little sister on a Jet Ski...





We went to swim with the Stingrays in Grand Cayman. It was a little weird at first but then you get used to the huge slimy things swimming right up to you.


The last stop was Ocho Rios, Jamaica. We took a tour around and climbed Dunn's Falls and went intertubing down a river. In this picture is one of our guides down the river. Half way through the tubing, we stopped and jumped off of a cliff. Our guides decided to show off and started doing flips and tricks off of the cliff. The guide in the picture climbed up a tree over the river and did a back flip. It was crazy! Everyone talked about Bob Marley and how much the country misses him. DTR was approached a couple of times to purchase drugs, I wonder why? They kept saying, "Eh, Tattoo man! Want to smoke?"

The World Series of Poker


Jordan and I have been trying to satellite into the Main Event of the World Series of Poker...they have online tournaments at Full Tilt where if you get to the final one, they pay you $12,000 to go to the tournament. $10,000 is the entry fee and $2,000 for travel expenses. We have both come very close and are going to keep cracking away at it. If I end up on TV, I will wear my one of my Kimchi shirts! Or maybe a really low cut shirt to distract all the guys at the table!

Next Year

Yes, I am a fan...fanatic. We will get them next year...not so sure why I owe this team such loyalty but it is ingrained in who I am. Growing up in LA we didn't have football and basketball was the sport I always loved...UCLA...Lakers...pick up games...whatever. I just wish it had been a better game...But there is always next year.

Old Rivalry/New Rivalry



AND AWAY WE GO!

Monday, May 26, 2008

Danica Patrick

I don't care much about auto racing, but this weekend's Indy 500 has brought up some interesting gender discussions. If Danica gets angry for being pushed into the wall and confronts a male driver, she should be treated just like any other driver, right? It has nothing to do with gender. If she wants equal treatment, she should expect that if she pushes a competitor, he can push back. Just a thought.

Utah defeated....now on to either San Antonio or New Orleans! What what Laker butt!

Kobe wins MVP

Sports writers and talk show hosts who talk about the MVP award all think Kobe has had better seasons. He has. This is not his best statistical season. However, this is the first year that he is having a feel good season. His points are down, but he has become a "better team player". Amazing how winning solves a lot of problems. He finally has a team around him that compliments his playing and so...the Lakers are winning. When you combine the best player in the league with some decent supporting cast, they win! Hopefully, Kobe will be winning another award toward the end of the playoffs.

I like lists...

I always see lists on other people's blogs and I like lists...

1. Playing 80 oz. to Freedom or Edward 40 hands makes me a drunk idiot.
2. Nick and Kara make cute babies. It's not that I don't want kids, I just am afraid my kids are going to be really weird looking/have Jordan's personality!
3. Not So Silent Bob is an enabler. And had an almost mullet when he was younger.
4. Sushi rice has sugar in it according to the sushi chef in Denver, who told us this while he was taking wagers on the Laker/Denver game from cute hostesses.
5. When your sushi takes awhile it's not cause you are wearing Laker's jerseys in Denver.
6. C4 and Brownie have interesting blog conversations.
7. It's May already.
8. Hashers on unicycles are a little odd.
9. Denver really wanted the Lakers to win. There were signs everywhere. The flowers were even gold and purple.
10. If Houston beats Utah, NBN should come to Houston and watch more Laker wins!
11. Never start punching arm of drunk NBN. Especially when I am also drunk. It equals waking up the next morning with vicious bruise. (Which I have to cover up lest people think I am married to an abuser!)
12. I miss Colorado. It was one of those situations where I didn't appreciate what I had until I left.
13. However, where we live has a lot more green and trees and is WAY less dry. So I guess I should just be happy where ever I am in life.

Watch out...fun will be ensuing!

Hanging out with the Hippies in Berkeley





I went to visit my college roommates in Berkeley last weekend. It was beautiful California weather all weekend so a beach trip was needed. We went into the ocean but it was freezing. Right after this picture was taken, we ran out and sunned off. It made me miss living in California until I remembered that you need to have A LOT of money to live comfortably there and it is really overcrowded and a little dirty. Plus, who wants to live with a bunch of smug hippies?
