Making Memories of us...

    So I really think that Chinese food and a movie Friday's are becoming a tradition at our place. By the time either of us gets out of work we are just too damn exahsted to do anything. I have been wanting to go skating, which I might try to do this Friday night, but I just couldnt bring myself to go this past weekend. I wanted to go see the Freeze Pops, because they were playing at the LongBranch in Taunton, but by the time I got any ambition it was too late and I was just getting grumpy and hungry... SO, off we went to get chinese food once again, and we watched a pretty good movie whos name I cant remember right this second.
Saturday was much more eventful. I had a lovely morning learning about C-Print at the Taunton Holiday Inn to help out my friend's non-profit organization. After that I met up with Aaron for our first movie theatre date ever :) We finally got to see The Last Airbender at the 2$ movie theatre in RI and by the time it was over I only wanted more. Yes, more movie please! It was so amazing!! We both have followed the cartoons and were dying to see it. **Geeks** But its ok, I wear my title with pride. After the movie we went home for a nap, then to the store to pick up dinner stuffs for a campfire at the farm with Adam and Ashley. We made meat on a stick and chatted witch was just awesome. Its what I had been wanting to do for a very long time... just relaxing with some music by the campfire.
At this campfire I decided that Adam and I fight like brother and sister. I have always wanted a big brother and from now on I will refer to him as such. Although I am older, hee hee, he is "bigger" so, yea. 
On Sunday I ran a ton or errands and picked up flowers for my grandmothers bday dinner. When panda got home we went to my grandmas bday cookout. He got to meet my uncle finally and I knew that they would hit it off. My Uncle even told him about a sweeeet car parts show/ swap meet that we are going to try to go to in October.... ( aaron does not know that we are totally going yet... lol ) Perhaps we will just start driving down to CT and end up in the vicinity of a swap meet...** smiles!!
We stayed at the fire till late, ate delicious smores outside and chatted with my family. They all love him which is super nice. effortless.
SO, that was this weekend in a nutshell. Right about now, its Thursday, should be Friday, and I am sick, exhausted, and stuck at school till forever while the rest of the world is home. BOO. I have to get home tomorrow to clean for this party stuff this weekend and create a costume with Ashley. We did get to the mall yesterday and I Acquired a panda pom pom hat for winter and my little red riding hood halloween costume and some sweeeet red high heels to go with it... I will officially be "little red" for halloween... yay!

And yes, my current favorite color is orange.... you figure out why and you get a prize :)

A Weekend of...

So, last weekend was the first weekend of "fall" after a week back at school. The first week of school was great, but the weekend was even better. It was the little things. After the weekend of wonderful was over though, I found myself texting all of the things that I did to myself so that I wouldn't forget them. This is why I began this blog. I don't want to forget... and I am a forgetful person. So, here is the story of last weekend. 

    On Friday I had to go to work. When I got out of school, Aaron was home. We spent hours trying to decide what to do... being silly and talking about our days. We finally decided to get chinese food and stay in to watch a movie. It was both fun and delicious. I love having little alone moments with my panda. On Saturday after Aaron got out of work we went out to Smokey Bones with Adam and Ashley. It was delicious, as always, and the company was stellar. I really enjoy hanging out with them because they just "get" us. Its not like some other friends who just throw questions of "where have you been" and "why havn't we hung out?" Its like... why are they wasting their time talking by even asking those questions. Its always the same answer.... adult life. Their little Aaron is growing up. So deal with it. But A&A are dealing with the same stuff, so it makes me feel better. I wish we could hang out with them more. Im always so lonely. Aaron keeps saying it will get better... but it all boils down to the fact that I dont have many friends out here, and at 25 I dont reallly know how to make them any more. Its not like I can sit down with my lunch box and ask the kid next to me to trade snacks... voila! Instant friendship. Nope. Not anymore. And I work so far away that none of my work "friends" would want to visit all the way out here. Aaron's friends are nice, but most aren't my age, or dont get me... and they are his friends... not mine. I dont know how to make friends at 25. Seems like I should have some by now. Boo. 

Anyway, back to the dinner out. I Love BBQ. I will probably mention this every post. I got delicious ribs and mac n cheese. Seriously my two most favorite foods ever. It was a really good night. On Sunday we went couch hunting for a little bit. No Success. After couch hunting we went to eat at Old Country Buffett with Alex and Loofa. It was very delicious and brought back a lot of memories from when I used to eat there with my Meme when I was small. I ate a ton of food this time... mostly desserts like carrot cake, ice cream and cheese cake. Because I could... because its a buffet.... and thats what I wanted. Yay! After food we brought A&L back to their house and got ready to go to a fire at Brads house. There were a lot of ladies there whom I might have known from Jr. High. They in fact knew many people I used to go to school with. Lets just say that these ladies were less than ideal company, and might have had a total of one brain between the 4 or 5 of them. I shall not be present in their company again.... by choice any way. It did end up being a really fun night. I got to see alot of people who I do not get to see often. It was funny to see Aaron and Artie together in fat kid action making shadow puppets on the side of Brads house. Because this is what people in their mid 20s do for fun on Saturday nights. completely sober. making shadow puppets. HA! :) It was excellent. I also had a wonderful convo. with Mikey. Its great to talk to someone who is so sooo smart. I love listening to him talk about stuff I have no idea about. I love learning. It happens all the time when Aaron talks about something I dont know about... like cars or metal shop or machines or tools. I love listening to him teach me. Like I wish I had a book on cd for the car of him and Mikey just going on and on about things I dont know about so that I can learn them. Then I'd show up one day and be like " Tork Wrench, Cars, Tools, Metal Stuff, Computers..." and spit out a bunch of stuff that I learned and everyone would be like... Woa, shes a tough chick. HA. awesomeness. On Monday I had no school because it was Labor Day. Meme invited us to Auntie Darlene's for her annual Brunch. We got dressed up and Aaron got to meet more of my family. It was cute because Meme and Ron and Auntie Darlene and Uncle Joe already love him from meeting him at the Aggie fair this summer. THey all gave him hugs and were happy to see him and eager to feed him. He fits in so well :) Uncle Joe was even sad to see him leave... who else will talk guns and cars and farming with him? lol. Meme casually invited Aaron to Thanksgiving by asking "What time does your family eat on Thanksgiving?" Aaron said " Around noon" Meme said " So you'll be ready to eat again around 5? " Lol. Yes... yes he will. And he is super excited that she invited him. Meme is very picky and doesn't really Like Like anyone that my sister or I have brought around. Meme even asked if Aaron had a nice brother Amber could date. This made me giggle. 

    This was an excellent weekend.... and excellent weekend in deed. 

Welcome...

Welcome to my thoughts. If anyone actually decides to read this, I am sure that they will be in for a wild ride. I might not always make sense, and in fact, I often will not even understand what I am typing all together. I have decided that this is Ok. I am mainly starting this blog out of shear boredom, and to keep track of all the fun things that I have been up to. I have discovered that lately I have fallen into a pattern of awesomeness. I go lots of places and do lots of things... so many that I sometimes lose track. And I don't want to look back at my life and try to remember what being 25 was like and not remember all of the little details that went along with it. I really want to capture even the smallest things so that I can make these memories, keep them, and read about them in the future. So, here I am, blogging. Once again, seeing as how this blog is mainly for my own remembering use, if you are reading it please be advised that it is not being written for an outside audience... and feel privileged I suppose. :)
