Cory and I are on our way to Lisa’s house, where we will be spending the night before heading out to the Oregon coast. It will be awesome to see her and Libby!

Tonight, I am looking forward to seeing a good friend and being able to hang out with her. She lured use to stay with the promise of grilled steaks and halibut. Bribery always works with us. Just kidding!

(I am realizing how rusty I am on writting an entertaining blog entry. A prime example of why I “need” an iPhone.)

Cory is looking forward to purchasing a unicycle from Serious Juggling. Travis bought one back in May. The guys had fun riding it when everyone camping in June.

“We are champions of the world…”

This moment brought to you by Queen. You just have to stop and sing-a-long.

(It was on the radio.)

The following is an exerpt from the great American novel that I have spent countless hours working on. (Cory demands a byline on this great masterpiece. He may or may not have filled in the nouns, verbs, and adjectives.)

“Huh?” said the dude looking puzzled as the diminutive, flaxen haired female hurtled exploring questions at him. As he realized the ginormousness of her question. He paused thoughtfully before answering, “People are people. So why should it be. You and I should get along so awfully.”  He then went on to explain the rational for this obsequious statement. “You see, when a pygmy neutral beats his olive colored drum, the primal forces of Estonia come together and shake hands with the diplomatic forces of the neutral planet.”

“Ah. Thanks for explaining the turgid political climate of the country of Trinidad and Tobago,” said the blonde. Both passengers in the rickshaw, sat back and stared quizzically over the head of Brock Lesnar who pulled their rickshaw into the dark night.

So, what do people think? Will I be able to get a book deal? Be honest!

MadLibs

Okay, so I was bored during the drive down to Portland and made up my own Mad Libs. Just as we got done with it and were laughing at our own cleverness, we ended up at Lisa’s. (Man, being a smart ass does make the time fly.)

Have a good night y’all!

I do love this guy.
He is so funny, smart, caring, and all that jazz.

After his soccer game, he was surfing the internet. He turned, looked at me, and said, “It’s been a long time, since my favorite blog has been updated.” So, here’s the update for him:  one of my favorite pictures of him (I’m still working on the epic camping blog entry).

So what’s the story behind this picture?  Well, last summer we went to the beach with Cory’s Dad and Alison. One night, Cory and I volunteered to cook dinner. I thought that BBQ chicken, salad, and chocolate lava cakes with raspberries would be an easy menu. Cory went along with me on this. I let him do the BBQ because he’s the one who does it on our grill at home. My brilliant idea didn’t take into account that the grill at the rental was close to four times the size our little 12 inch one. Also, the fact that instead of four or five pieces of chicken he was barbecuing close to 30. There was a lot of smoke involved, Cory was slightly overwhelmed by the task and peeved with me. (Another reason, why I love him because he goes a long with my loftier ideas but tends to keep me more on the ground.) His dad kept on wandering by him and offering words of encouragement. He came into the kitchen later and said that he wanted to help but was at a loss of what else to do, so he figured he would offer moral support. The other half of the cooking experience was a lot of laughs, as Cory was being extremely silly and pretending to order things from the “drive through” (the grill was right outside the kitchen window, which was wide open.)

You just have to love someone who can always make you smile. Plus, he’s pretty cute to boot.

So, that’s his favorite blog updated.

I love you, Cory!
