A Day at the Park!

The weather has so great the last few days. Jett and I got out today to enjoy it! We spent a while at the park then went for a nice, long walk!

This is Jett's favorite game at the park:

I build the sand tower.....

Aaanndd he knocks it down!

This is Scary!!!

Ever get that freaky feeling that you're being watched. Kinda like in the movies. I like to take Emma out for a walk around the apartment complex when I get off of work so she can get out of the house for a while. I often get that funky vibe like someone is following me. And what's even more frustrating is when that vibe kicks in you quickly turn around to catch a glimpse of the stalker and no one is there. How do they do that I often wonder? Well, living in an apartment complex that thought crosses my mind daily. I am very vulnerable without my ninja gear.
Everyone knows that Jillian is in Colorado for a couple of weeks. It's just Emma and I hanging out at our bachelor pad. She watches out for me and I watch out for me too. Haha, Emma no one is watching out for you!
Once upon a cloudy silent night, when there wasn't a star flickering in the sky. I began to get every paranoid cuz that's usually when the crazies come out. Yes, Nicole the Central Crazies! Of course mom, I close all the blinds in the house so no one is able to look in. I go into my bedroom to finish folding my clothes and all the sudden I hear Emma barking like someone is trying to get in the house. Oh no I thought, I don't have time to put on my ninja gear. Forget it, I don't have time. By the time I get my ninja gear on, everything in the house will be gone. So, I did what ninjas do and did a flying somersault followed by a flying crouching fiery tornado sweep kick into the living room to scare away the burglars. Come to find out, it was just a peeping Tom, except her name wasn't Tom it was Nancy. She was just trying to see if anyone was home so she could sell me some girl scout cookies. What ever happened to setting up a stand outside of Wal-Mart?
Unfortunately for her, she didn't get a round-house kick to the face. I was just glad it wasn't a burglar and just an innocent girl. Luckily for her I bought the whole box of cookies. I mean, how could you be mad. Just look at those puppy eyes.

Jillian's 7 Continued...

Apparently I have a lot of strange things.....

1. I was very accident prone as a child....I often fell down the stairs, especially our cement basement stairs. Then my mom would have to call the dr and put a tape line on the floor that I had to walk repeatedly to prove I didn't have a concussion.

2. When I see a camera just sitting I can't help but to take a scary picture of myself.....see below:

3. Allison and I slept in the same bed through high school. No, there was not a shortage of beds in my house. We actually lived in a massive 7 bedroom house and we both had our own huge, dream bedrooms. But each night one of us would crawl into the other's bed (usually I into hers) and we would fall asleep talking about boys and friends and school.

4. I can't stand to eat a popsickle with a wooden stick...I'll eat some, but leave a safe amount of ice cream between me and the wood. I also can't eat or taste off a wooden spoon

5. I talk to myself...like out loud, and I do it daily and often. Erin seemed really disturbed by this when I told her the other day. I actually didn't think it was so strange but judging by her extreme reaction it may be a little weird...

Well I didn't get 7 things this time, but I've probably disclosed enough for now....

What a Lucky Guy!!

How lucky am I?

I'm thinking about going to the casino to try my luck. My car got hit twice in one week. Getting struck by lightning was the thing in the past. Wednesday was the first time my car was attacked and today is the second time. Unfortunately, the loser that hit my car today drove off before I could get to him/her. Lucky for them. I ran inside Wally World to grab a few bare essentials, like food, toothpaste, and dog treats. When I was done shopping I went out to the parking lot in search of my car. To tell you the honest truth, I passed my car the first time and was like, "oh shoot, that sucks", not knowing at the time that was my car. Still trying to get use to the Texas plates. I went back to what I thought was someone else's car only to discover it was mine. WTH (What the Heck), that's my car!! I called the cops and the police officer came and filled a police report. He was going to check the cameras at Wal-Mart to see if he could get any type of evidence. Just our luck we only have liability on this car. Jillian and I are currently taking donations for our Scion xA Repair Foundation.

Jett

I do believe Jett might just be part monkey....

Yo, Watch Out!!

For those of you who have not heard. My car was viciously attacked yesterday. It started out as any ordinary morning. I was licked awake by Emma, got ready for work, ate my oatmeal (breakfast of champions), and got into my car. Oops, I almost forgot...........I got dressed, then got into my whip (as some of you youngsters would call it). Jillian and I live in a gated community which requires you to enter a code to enter and when existing the gate automatically opens. With that said, there was a car in front of me and one behind me (I was the cheese in this hamburger). Which is really common in the morning since everyone is trying to rush off to work. So.......I was sitting there patiently waiting for the gate to open and my turn to exit while jamming to some tunes. From the corner of my eye, I begin to notice that a car in a parking spot off to my right begins to prowl. I was thinking in my head "Oh no, you better not, you better not". FYI, when someone is ferociously honking like a crazy maniac, that usually means they want your attention. It doesn't mean "speed up, oh someone is trying to attack me". Anyways, obviously the guy thought he was going to get car-jacked or something cuz he sped up a little and tears into my car. I thought to myself "Chris, do not get out your 9M from your dash, just go out there and talk to him". I got out and see this old man, roughly 70's and he was confused, he didn't know what had happened. I think he thought I ran into him. That is actually impossible considering the point of impact on my car. A picture of my car with the damage is below. See for yourself.

Dialogue:



Chris: Are you alright? Your glasses are fogged.


Crazy Guy: Yeah, it does that sometimes.


Chris: Oh, okay? (thinking to myself: that's why you didn't see me behind you, aaaauuuggggg!!!!)


Crazy Guy: What happened?


Chris: You backed into me.


Crazy Guy: Man, I really got you good.


Chris: Let's see if it damaged your car. (Of course not, he was driving a big Cadalliac Escalade)


Who picks a fight with a little Scion anyways?


Crazy Guy: No, my cars good.


Chris: Well, let me get your contact and insurance information.


Crazy Guy: Sorry about your car, have a good day.


Chris: I think not!!
