About Last Night.......And Today.........

Hello Dear World !!!!!!!!! Of course it was a rather humid day but hopefully we will get some rain in soon and don't worry I didn't fall off the face of the earth here I am. Well let me lay out my day for you which began early yesterday when we got on the road to visit some of our distant cousins from New Orleans in Snellville, Georgia or as I would call it Snailville. Now first things first....Of course we got lost. By we I mean my folks, both of my nieces and me. Anyway......we landed up in Atlanta which was nice because we actually saw some places that we never saw or went to before. But later on we got to where we were supposed to be heading which was one of our cousins' houses. It was like visiting a foreign country.

Later that night we followed some of our other cousins to a Holiday Inn. We went to one of the rooms where my folks talked for quite a while to some of our other cousins from New Orleans, Louisiana. It was nice seeing them since we hadn't seen them for quite a while. Later that night my nieces and I spent half of the night walking around the hotel going to some of the other rooms where some of our other cousins were staying. For the rest of the night we just walked around the halls. My family and I didn't leave the hotel until after midnight.

On our way home we stopped off at a Waffle House where we had breakfast. Let me tell you there was an older gentleman there who was dressed in a pink hat which had been precisely placed to the side. His clothing was a flowery pink and black shirt and black dancing shoes. He also wore some kind of cape around his neck. He looked like he had stepped out of the Disco Era. When he walked into the Waffle House he didn't just walk he had this way of dancing as he walked. You know its like another world opens up at 1 a.m. It was like stepping into a time warp. I guess you could say our night was rather strange once we left the hotel.

One last night.......All of my cousins had asked me if I was married. That was the only question they kept asking me. When they found out I was 30 years old they all took a breath like someone had hit them with a bat. They were shocked to find out I wasn't married. Why is it that seems to be the only question family members ever ask me ???

-------------------------------------------------

Here is what we did today.......Before the voices in my head take over.......just kidding......ha,ha,ha,ha,ha. Anyway I had a really enjoyable day. Today my family and I went to Kohl's. Here is the link ----------> www.kohls.com/ . At Kohl's I purchased some rather funny shirts. One of the shirts reads: "Gone To My Happy Place - Back Soon". I also bought me some new tennis shoes. After Kohl's we took a ride to a store called Staples. Here is its link........> www.staples.com . At Staples we purchased some school supplies for my nieces. Then after we left we went to lunch at a great restaurant called "Backyard Burgers". Here is the link to the restaurant........> www.backyardburgers.com . We ate some of the best tasting burgers you could ever imagine. It was like a professional chef had cooked them. The meat on the burgers were Black Angus Beef which were quite wonderful. At the restaurant they also serve some of the best tasting chili in like the world. I treated my family to lunch which they did enjoy. My family and I really liked the place and I plan to take them back some time when we get the chance. Both of my nieces gave the place a thumbs up so you know if young ones like a place then you know its a place worth eating at.

Enough about me.......How was your day dear world ? I'm ready to hear all about you. I'm sure I will have tons to tell you when my week is over at work.......Yes its back to work for me tomorrow. Anyway.......I hope your night is quite nice I will be spending the rest of my night watching a little television and just hanging out.

I wanted to tell you that I watched one of my favorite shows on television called "My Fair Brady" which included the wedding of Christopher Knight of "The Brady Bunch" and Adrianne Curry of "America's Next Top Model". They are officially married and I would like to wish them both lots of happiness and "Congratulations" on their nuptials. Its nice to hear when two people find eachother in this world through love. I guess I'm a romantic at heart. CONGRATULATIONS CHRISTOPHER AND ADRIANNE !!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish you both years and years of love and happiness in your future together.

Here's one last note: There is now a live wild grizzly cam sponsored by National Geographic. You can see grizzly bears up close and personal without having to go outdoors even if you should wish to.  I'm sure Timothy Treadwell would be proud. Here is a link -------> http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/wildcamgrizzlies/resources.html . I wonder what if the grizzlies find where the cam is located and eat it ? Would you want to see the inside of a grizzly bear's stomach ? That would certainly be a sight to see don't you think ???

That's all for now take care dear world........I'll talk to you soon. Byyyyyyyyyye for now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
