Great Week!

Saturday, May 27th, 2006

Well I would have to say this has been one of my better weeks of this month! It started off with Chelsea’s graduation. Having been to five graduations in the last five years I would have to say it was one of the better ones I have been to. After that we had an after party at the house. It was fun times, most of which consisted of us watching gabe and liam. After that we had an after after party with two of the coolest people around, Shane and Alli. We played hand and foot. Great Times! Then the work week started. Monday was okay, nothing exciting. Chelsea had an interview for the Desoto District. Tuesday and Wednesday I got to go to another store and train. It got me excited about my job, cause I actually learned what I was suppose to do for my job. It was great times! Thursday was, I would have to say, the greatest day of my life so far. It was the day I got a XBox 360 for $5. Then on top of that Chelsea got hired for a FIRST GRADE teaching job in the DESOTO DISTRICT. We are both very excited!! Friday was good, nothing to exciting at work. Afterwards we went over to Jen and Elias’ house for a cook out and a movie. Tomorrow holds a whole other adventure that I am excited about. I hope everyone else had an awesome week. And if you didn’t then don’t worry, you are just being smart and saving it for the right moment.

Peace Out, Scott

It has been a week for me to be at my new job. Things are going well and I am still excited about it. A lot of things have happen in the past week that I think I should share. First off, chelsea and I got an apartment. I don’t move in until June 8th but I am very excited. Secondly, the other day a little baby blew chunks at my work and I had to clean it up. Long story short ( Some people have told me I am long winded in my post) I threw up in the process of cleaning up which in turn made someone else throw up. So there was a throw up party at work the other day. If you would like a more in-depth description of what took place then please leave a comment. The more I get the better the story becomes. Just a little fyi it is better than the bank story!!

Peace Out!

Crocs and Me

Thursday, March 23rd, 2006

i have had some comments about crocs and the wedding that I will be attending during the summer. While some of you know the story, there are a couple of you who might not. For those of you who might you can skip over the next paragraph, but I warn you you could miss some great blogging. For those of you who don’t want to read this long post, skip to the end there are cliff notes.

During last summer Chelsea and I attended our best friend’s wedding. Chelsea and I were actually in the wedding so we really didn’t have a choice of not going. Being a grooms men I had to wear a tux, which came from the great story of After Hours Tux. And when I say great, I mean they suck. They screwed up the order so many times we had to get out an abbacus (luckily I carry one in my back pocket sometimes don’t ask why that is for another post) to count all their mistakes. They messed up so many times I didn’t bother telling them they gave me the wrong size shoes. I figure I could handle it, I would only have to wear them a couple of hours. Well after two minutes and 37 seconds I wanted to chop off my feet and feed them to a rabid squirrel.

Why a rabid squirrel you might ask, and to that I say, why not a rabid squirrel what do you have against rabid squirrels?

I had to wear the shoes for who knows how long, after thirty minutes I blacked out, some how I finished the wedding and reception without anyone knowing I blacked out. When we finally got back to the hotel we were staying at I took off my shoes and examined them to see if I saw any damage. There was no physical damage but the blood had been cut off to my feet for 4 hours so I didn’t have any feeling. I wasn’t to worried about this at first. Two months later I still didn’t have feeling in my big toe, and we were starting to talk about wedding plans. Well I didn’t want a remake of the last wedding. Sure I only lost the feeling in my big toe, but who knows what else it could have been? I decided that maybe dress shoes weren’t the thing for me at wedding, and I thought crocs would suit be better. They are comfortable, and we could get them in black. I thought this was a brilliant idea and I presented it to Chelsea. She laughed and told me good luck getting June to buy into it. So I did my research and set up a power presentation. I made charts and graphs. I had so many charts and graphs that I made Magellan look like a kid with figure paintings. So I got this all ready, I did the bear speech from Swingers to pump me up and presented it to June. Well she sat through two minutes of it and started to laugh. She just threw her hands up in the air and said, “Scott, you’re such a kidder.” I couldn’t believe my ears. I had spent three long months coming up with this presentation and June just laughed at me. It took her two seconds to relies I wasn’t joking. She stop laughing and looked at me with a straight face and said “No.” That was the day that my dream of a perfect wedding was shattered into a million pieces.

So long story short, I asked to wear crocs and June didn’t think that would be a great idea. To tell you the truth I kind of agree with her. In a side note I am a horrible speller and really bad at grammar. So for those of you who pride yourselves of your writing ability. I just want to say thanks for getting it this far without wanting to rip your eyes out of your sockets.

Disclaimer: Some of the facts in the story have been changed to make me look better.

Peace

Busy Body

I am sure many of you who are reading this are going through your daily routine of blogs. Catching up on everyone’s lives while eating your breakfast or passing time at work. I am sure for the past couple of weeks you have felt that your blogging experience has not been complete because there is one blogger that seems to have disappeared into the blogging world where who knows what type of horrible misery she could be suffering. Some of you may know of whom I speak while others are thinking, “Oh, great Scott has fallen off the wagon and started to smoke the reefer again.”

And to those of you who may be thinking this I have only one thing to you dear sirs (or ladies)…. Can anyone tell me why it’s called Mary Jane? Do a lot of people named Mary Jane smoke it? Did weed become popular during Spider-Man and everyone thought that the character Mary Jane was a pot head?

That is besides the point. The person of whom I was talking about would be the lovely Miss Chelsea Johnson. She has been unable to blog for some time now I thought I should be the one to give you an explanation as to why. Most of you know that Chelsea has started her student teaching. Well in the past couple of weeks she has started to slowly take over teaching the class. Her days consists of her getting up at 5:30 am to exercise and get ready to be out of the door by 7:20 am. She is gone until about 4 then comes up and works on lesson plans, wedding stuff, and school stuff till about 9:30-10:00. Then she goes to bed to get ready to do it all over the next day. She is working very hard and I very proud of her. She only has a couple of weeks left of this craziness and then she is done. Some days the most I get say to her is Hi and good night. So I just thought I would let everyone know that she hasn’t forgotten about her blog, but it might be some time before she gets back to it.
