Reaction Speed

Know I have always wished that I could come up with cool sayings or with good come backs to every situation or even to just have my mind work perfectly and come up with odd stories and just craziness. I have a few friends that can do it all the time. It's amazing to listen when they talk and see what they are going to come up with next. I can occasionally do it. Where my mind and mouth are in sink. However what I'm good at is my sarcasticness. I can usually do that without a beat. John our new associate pastor of the church was over at Pastors house and he was in the kitchen about to get something to drink when he asked the Pastors wife if the last cup had been used yet. Without hesitating I jumped in and yes I licked it. He looked at me strange and was slightly horrified asking "really?" Granted that was our first meeting of him so I doesn't know me at all so he could have thought I was being completely serious. It was funny. Finally we told him that no it was clean and that he could use the cup. There are a few other times in my life where my mind and mouth work perfectly. Someday I hope that I get my imagination working again to where I can come up with really cool sayings or really exciting and creative stories.

Time

Time is a strange phenomenon don't you think. Today I was thinking only if I had the power to stop time like Jean Gray or Professor Xavier or even just slow it up or down it would be the most powerful and awesome tool to have at your own disposal. I would use it everyday. I would use it during week days to go really fast so that it only feels like I work one or two days a week instead of five and then on the weekends slow time down so it feels like a weeks worth of vacation in between the days that you work. You could go someplace and not have to worry about taking time off from work. You could stay home and clean the house but only have it take up a quarter of the day as opposed to all day of your two day weekend. Time could be our ally. You could do everything that is needed within your own time frame.

However, time is only what you make it to be though, unfortunately, but we can always dream.

The Invention and Discovery of The Light Bulb

Ah, the discovery of the light bulb. Historians have always told us that Ben Franklin created the light bulb but they lied. The truth has been hushed up for many, many years. Almost everyone that knows the truth have almost died out so here I am to tell the tale of how the light bulb came about. It was actually created before the time of Ben Franklin really before to many people were here on the planet. Electricity has been around for ages. The cavemen for example spun wheels around and around on rocks to create electricity and then harnessing it in wire cages that would shine of there brilliance lighting the rock walls so that they could draw there pictures of light. Historians never wanted people to know that light was created back in the day of the cave men so they erased there drawings off the walls of caves. Later, it was thought that the Romans thought of it and created the first actual light bulb, but it wasn't the Romans either. It was a lone mad scientist that created the first light bulb. Yes a mad scientist from before their were cavemen! This mad scientist, who's name I can't confess to you because that would put to much information into your hands, therefore threatening your way of life and existence, was born into the area of Kadesh. If you don't know where it is that's fine enjoy the unknowing bliss that comes from it. Kadesh was in a mountainous land. Many trees, mountains, snow, and rivers. This mad scientist grew up looking at the waters of the rushing river and thought if only he could produce something that would light up his camp and houses of everyone near him. He began like any mad scientist. Inventions made with wood and rope. Of course that wouldn't work because a current couldn't go through it. He then forged metal into a long thin line and wrapped it tightly around a tree. He then made a water wheel then would turn as the river rushed by. He tied the metal to the water wheel and voulla then became the first bit of light. The next thing that he, the mad scientist came up with was glass. Which that will be another story. He put a glass shield around the wire so no one could touch the wire and electrocute themselves. So there is the story of the light bulb. It wasn't Ben Franklin like historians wanted you to believe but it was that crazy mad scientist that could do anything.

Now the true story is slowly fading away but never fear the truth can never be covered up!! It is resilient like peoples lives. Pass on the truth don't let it die out!!!

Work and Vacation

So I said that I would write of funner blog next so here it is. Renee who I work with is constantly talking incessantly about her near future trip to Las Vegas this Friday. The loser. Just kidding. Whenever she talks about that I instantly think about my 2 trips in the upcoming months. I almost can't wait.

My mom sent me an e-mail about all the things that you can do off the cruise ship all the excursions and what not. It was fun to look at however very expensive. I love cruises but they are expensive. The things that we are looking at doing are being on the Alletian Ballad (Crab fishing boat from the Deadliest Catch), a train ride through the Yukon, and looking at some much fun glaciers of Alaska. I was looking at all the options today during work. It was thrilling.

Nothing exciting has happened lately in my life besides the fact that tomorrow Bill and I are going to apply for Passports so that we can enter into Canada on our trip. That's about it. I really need to start making things up so that I can have a much interesting life.

Here how's this...I really don't work in a bank. I'm really a spy for the English government. I'm a SAS operative and I'm here on the coast to look into the laid back style of the coasties. Soon though I'm going to get called back to the mother land and take my findings and my husband that I forced to marry me 4 years ago so that I could stay in the country back to England where I will hold him hostage until the day that I grow tired of making him hang out with me and from being my man slave. However you won't know when I go because it will be in a blink of an eye and I'm gone never to been seen or heard from again from anyone!!!! dun, dun, duh.

Nothingness

You know when you get the feeling all of a sudden of not being able to snap out of it. I'm there. I've been trying to get myself out of this mood and this line of thinking because it's not very healthy for me but every time I try to not think about it something comes up and I'm thinking about it all over again. The only rest that I'm getting from not thinking about it is when I'm watching my countless movies. Which by the way I'm finally getting tired of. Never thought that I would say that ever. I have been systematically going through all of my movies not watching one twice for the past few months and now I'm down to the movies that are good but that you have to be in the mood for therefore I'm forcing myself to watch these movies thinking to myself only if I can fall asleep during it it would be worth it. Now watching these movies are the great distraction of my life however when something painful or bad happens when I don't want to deal with it. Therefore right now is that time. I however need to get back to praying and reading my bible and take my focus off of the good things and start putting my eyes on something far more rewarding and good.

I'm truly sorry for my boring and slightly depressing blog today. I write a funner one next!

4 Day Weekend

So I thought that my perfectly planned weekend was ruined when Bill and I couldn't go up to camp but in fact it wasn't ruined it was just perfectly great. Now don't get me wrong I am sad that I couldn't go up to camp and play in the perfectly great, cold snow but this weekend turned out a lot better then I could have hoped for. I started out this last week depressed. One reason I really needed to go on a date with Bill and then when that got ruined because I wasn't looking at the time (The restaurant was closed by the time we got there). It got postponed till the next day. It turned out terrific. It was a wonderful date. Then there was the start of my 4 day weekend. Friday started off with me driving down to Tillamook to drop Bill off and then I proceeded to buy many movies from Fred Meyers. My favorite past time. Ruining into a friend, buying movies for myself and Bill, and then finally buying much needed birthday presents for 2 special kids. It was a fun day. The movies, I know you want to know, I got PS I Love You for me, The Rock for Bill and The Closer(TV Series) for Bill and I. I love all of those movies.

Saturday we stopped back by Fred Meyers because the pants that I got for Bill didn't fit and we couldn't find any good looking ones that we wanted so we bought other things instead. You guessed it more movies. I have a sickness I know. Bill bought me the Jurrasic Park Trilogy and the Back to the Future Trilogy. Instead of of bouquet of flowers he bought me a bouquet of movies. Then we took the dogs out to my parents house so that we could do our taxes and the dogs could play with there aunt (my parents dog). Taxes we ended up owing but it turned out fine. Then Bill and I went to Kinkoes got our picture taken for our Passports that we need to get. Finally on the way back home we called into Papa Murphy's to get our traditional heart shaped pizza for dinner. It was a magical night. Eating pizza and falling asleep to a movie.

Next was Sunday. We went to church and went to Snack and Yak which the church puts on and we got our picture taken with a bunch of hearts floating around our heads. It was fun. Then Matthew came over and watched Music and Lyrics with us. If you haven't watched it, it's a must see movie.

Monday. I got it off anyway because you know I'm a banker. I was bored. I tried to take my dogs down to the beach but that didn't pull off because there were so many people of the beach. Not going to happen with my girls. So instead I went out to lunch with my mother in law. It was fun. We had a great conversation and laughed a lot. Then back home to watch more movies because for the life of me I couldn't think of anything to do. It was sad. Now I'm off to make dinner!!!! Thrilling isn't it.

Date Night

So, tonight is my and Bills date night. I can't wait. We haven't gone out and done anything by ourselves in such a long time that I am starting to feel the affects of it. I owed a date, due to losing a bet to Bill in the first place so I asked him if we could go on a date on Wednesday. Of course he said yes.

So came the arduous task of trying to come up with something to do besides dinner. While at work I was e-mailing a friend, Decaf Addict, and was asking her for any advice. I really didn't want to take him to a movie because that is what we usually always do so I wanted something different. Decaf Addict mentioned something about going to seaside and looking in all of the shops. Thinking about that led me to thinking of the arcade. So we are going to Lumberman's and going to the arcade after work. I am so excited that I can't wait. I want to take the day off to have a whole day date.
