Well Friday was traveling day. I woke up about 2 am in the morning after getting just a couple of hours of sleep and I drove to Detroit(from here a 2 hour drive). Got there and for the most part it was not hard even though a couple of streches or road were super straight and boring but I just rolled down the window and stayed awake.

The plane ride out there was not bad at all. The plane left around 7 am and it seemed to be a quick flight. The on board movie was the Italian Job. I had already seen this movie and because of Ed Norton on it I deem it watchable, but I did not pay for the headphones, and the flight crew turned the sound off… so whatever. I just listened to music. After the movie they had Everybody loves Raymond episodes, which did have sound so I plugged my headphones off the MP3 player and watched the show. I like the show, but I have to say the episodes that they showed were classic. One was the one with the dancing and the other one was with the football that Franks steals. When we approached the Rockies the pilot announced it and I got to take a picture.

The Vegas is a great place, nice weather, everyone happy, but over all it feels like it has no soul… meaning it feels almost sterile… maybe because it is a desert? or maybe because everything about it is geared towards “fun”

I am not a gambler so that is probably the biggest problem, I cannot bring myself to gambling money. But I was not there just for me, I was there because my good friend Chad was getting married. And let me tell you, I have never seen a more beautiful wedding. I am not sure if it was the sunset or the bride or the words the minister said, but it really spoke to me and the beauty of marring someone you truely love. The pictures I took of the wedding are here. Pictures of Vegas are here

The rest of the time there was just pure relaxation time… but I did get to rent a scooter and ride around the next day… but I did not wear sunblock, big mistake… not too bad, but I did get a little darker than I wanted to and my nose is now peeling. Well, I am glad to be back and I might do some more posting later. For now I am about to do the WEDmindHUMP.

First, a warm up. in celebration of the 1812 birthday of Edward Lear, the man who popularized the limerick, reveal seven things about yourself using the letters N-A-U-G-H-T-Y. One word a hundred words, it doesn’t matter - just hump it, baby!

Nearsighted, or is it farsighted… either way I have issues with my vision, the worst being astigmatism.
Affectionate. I like to think that I am an extremely affectionate person.
Untouchable. LOL I could not come up with anything better.
Great thanks for asking.
Happy too, thanks for asking again.
Tired of not having enough words for MEME’s the funny thing is that I could just get up and look at a dictionary, but no I am not going to.
Young at heart, yea I know I am still a pup, but I want to always stay young at heart.

There’s nothing worse than an idle hump. Now that we’re warmed up, let’s get humping, shall we?

01. You are a character from a children fairy tale or nursery rhyme. Who are you and why?
Robin Hood for sure, I like to help people.

02. You are a magic potion. What is your main ingredient(s) and what are you used for?
Dragon’s heart and Phoenix tears, and I would be used for healing.

03. Tell us your favorite joke, It can be naughty but clean up the language, puhleeze.
I have too many to tell, do not have a favorite really. Let see a short one and also PG… If you bred a Bulldog and a Shitzu what do you get?… *evil grin*

04. Imagine you’re in the Old West. What town character would you be and what would your colorful nickname be? Example: School Marm - Old Widow Maples
I would be the barkeep and I would be Johnny Secrets.

05. You are a mythological diety/god. What are you the god of? What offering(s) would worshippers lay at your feet? If one displeased you how would you smite them?
Hrm… if I had to pick an existing one I would probably be Zeus… now totally made up I would be the god of Wind and I would want food as my offering and would not smite anyone, I am a cool chilly breezy kind of god.

Sorry for not posting about me leaving, but I don’t do that most of the time… I just talk about it afterwards… some of you might have caught the tag I left. Well I spent the weekend in Vegas for one of my friends weddings, tomorrow when I wake up I will be posting pictures and talking a lot more about it… til then

Lets play Thursday Threesome anyways

Onesome: Something old- Do you have anything that you’ve owned simply forever? A cherished childhood toy, an antique handed down through the family…

Not really, I think one my oldest possessions besides pictures off course is my senior Tshirt. I do have pictures of when I was born in my possesion.

Twosome: Something new- Buy anything new lately?

Not lately, I cannot remember the last purchase I really made besides groceries. I will however buy a new memory card today to take on my Vegas trip.

Threesome: Something borrowed- Ever borrowed anything and never returned it?

Do not like to borrow much, I am actually the one that people borrow from and never return it. Actually I do have something. My friend John P during college let me borrow a bike rack, and I kept it… I concider it mine now did nor remember about it until I got a bike again.

Bonus: Something blue- See anything blue from where you are? What is it?

Mousepad is mostly blue. Mouse is also Blue.

This week a “getting to know you” theme with an insane twist.

First, a warm up. in celebration of our fresh and “Spring”y layout, using the letters B-O-I-N-G reveal five things about yourself. You can use just one word or just chatter, chatter, chatter. Either way, just go crazy!

You DO NOT have to ask me to go CRAZY twice… here we go

Even before we start, BOING has always sounded naughty to me

Best friend you can ever have. I truly believe this to be true, once you become my friend I am willing to do almost anything. But after being burnt a couple of times I have kept my giving out friend status to a counted number of people. I do feel like I am slowly opening up again and becoming more like I used to.
Overbearing, as a friend I used to push my advice a lot, and I also used to think that I was always right. I have little by little gotten over this and realized that people live their lives in their own way. I also realized that my advice is good, but it is just that advice, I do not get as attached to the advice as I used to.
Interpreter. I have done Spanish <> English interpretation in the medical field.
Naughty… I am sure everyone has figured that one out already
Goal driven… I like to set goals in life and achieve them. It is very satisfying.

Now…we wouldn’t leave you with just half a hump so here’s the rest so you can have the hump, the whole hump and nothing but the hump! Let’s hump, shall we?

01. If your blog were scratch and sniff, what would it smell like? Today Eternity, that is what I am wearing… weird because I have not used it in quite some time, my every day smell is Addidas Moves.

02. Which horror movie monster are you most like and why?A Vampire, Lestat… I am a monster with style and sex-appeal LOL.

03. If you were being sold in a Walmart, which department would you be in and what exactly would you be? Would you be on sale?Probably in Electronics, some kind of interesting gadget… no I would not be on sale, I would be the most expensive one of my kind.

04. Earth, Wind, Fire and Water. Which element would you be. What form of that element would you be and why?Wind, I think I used this before but I was quite proud of what came out… wind can be a delicate and a summer breeze or as strong an destructive as a hurricane or a tornado.

“How are we to be patient with our partner’s, our children’s, our friends’, and our neighbors’ faults if we are impatient in dealing with our own? They who are fretted by their own failings will not correct them. All profitable correction comes from a calm and peaceful mind.” - St. Francis de Sales

Well, I have not put a quote out here in a while so I tought it will be a good entry today. I have been dealing with stuff at work and I tought that a quote on patience will help me out a lot. This one is a very good entry and my interpretation of it is that before we can begin to be patient towards others we have to be patient with ourselves. I can be really introspective at times, and I do see a lot of my faults. I try to work on them but this quote reminds me of being patient with myself, so that I can also be patient towards other.

Are you patient with yourself?

So here we go…

Think of all the songs you have ever heard in your life..*thinking*..if you could have written any ONE of them which would it be and why?

This question is hard, many songs carry a lot of feeling on them but a good singer really makes the difference IMHO. One that I would like to take credit for writting would be Everything I do, I do it for you… Brian Adams for love and For life, La Vida es Un Carnaval, Celia Cruz. I will translate and post the lyrics some time today if I get a chance.

Just to add a little more fun to your lives here is some ‘I say, You think’…the only thing is anything I say you have to think of something music related.
