Been Thinking

I have been thinking and I think I have pretty much outed myself to my best friend last week.

Background:
A few months ago the aunt of my best friend, her husband was leaving for the navy. So they were having a going away dinner and my friend had asked me to make a few deserts for them. So I made a tiramisu, chocolate chip calzones and chocolate pistachio biscotti. A few weeks later I was at my friend’s house and her aunt came over, said thank you and that they really loved it. She also mentioned that when her husband comes back they are going to renew their vows and wanted the biscotti for give a ways. She asked me if I am able to make around 200 or so cookies and I said sure.

She emailed me asking if I had any ideas on how to pack the cookies to give them away. So last week I made some cookies and packed them a few different ways for her to choose from and they turned out really cute…haha.

And that got me thinking, what normal “straight” guy would make cookies and pack them all cute and crap. So if my friends had been questioning about me, and I don’t know if they have, I think I have pretty much confirmed it. I maybe looking too much into it, but I can’t help it.

Blogger Dinner

I have been meaning to post this a few days ago, but I forgot/was lazy. Anyways on Thursday something happened that I NEVER thought would happen when I started this blog months ago, and that is I met up with a fellow blogger for dinner. I met with Mike from Random Thoughts in My Life. He's a cool guy, dinner was good and after we just walked around the mall for awhile and chatted. It was fun and I hope we can do it again soon.

The Viewing and Funeral

It was SOOO much harder than I thought it ever would be. I thought I would be able to hold back the tears, but as I approach her it came pouring and could not stop, along with everyone else.

RIP

A few months ago I posted about my friends mom, who was very sick and in the hospice. Well he just called my right now to tell me that she passed away on Wednesday night. And I don't know how to feel right now. We all knew it was coming and will only be a matter of time, in away I am kind of happy that she has pass and is now free of pain and suffering. She was in SOO much pain and you can totally see it. Even though she was unable to communciate with us you can tell that she was in a lot of pain.

With that said I don't know what to do or say or feel right now, I've never had someone close to me pass away before (thank god). Of all my friends parents I was the closest with her. The viewing is going to be tomorrow and the funeral is on Monday. I've NEVER been to a viewing and funeral before and I don't know why but I am a little scared, I don't know what to do. Should I bring something to either and what should I wear, I don't want to wear anything inappropriate and disrespectful but at the same time I don't want to be over dress. (sorry I know its not appropriate to talk about what to wear right now, but I needed something to get my mind off it)

DAMN

Today, my cousin and I had planned on going to Magic Mountain. So we were all excited on our drive there, which took like 40 mins. Once we arrived we notice that there were no cars and upon arrival at the gate we realize that they were closed. We were shocked/piss, I mean come on what freakin theme park closes during they week. But apparently since it is off season they only open Friday, Saturday and Sunday. So since my cousin has these next few days off of work, we are going to try again tomorrow, hopefully they will be open.

Also this weekend I was suppose to go to Vegas, but things didn't work out so the trip is canceled and that makes me sad.

Surprised

Last night my cousins and I decided to go to the beach to grab some dinner. We went to the pier, where there are a bunch shops with a variety of seafood. We ordered a bunch of food and among them were oysters on the half shell. And these things were huge, normally when I have raw oysters I prefer the smaller ones they are usually sweeter and I don’t have to chew them, but these were so big that I had to chew it. Well anyways we were enjoying them and I got stuck with the largest of the bunch and as I was chewing I bit on something hard and thought to myself “ah great I just bit a piece of the shell”. So I spit it out and to my surprise it wasn’t a piece of shell at all but a baby pearl in the making. It was tiny, but no mistaking that it was a pearl, it was perfectly round and had the ivory pearl shine to it.

After dinner and my discover, my cousins girlfriend said that some of her co-workers were going to a bar near by and said that there is a live band. So we decided to check it out, when we arrived it looked like a hole in the wall bar (my favorite type) but there were NO one outside the door, we were all thinking that it’s going to dead so we drove around to the other side and was shock to see tons of cars and a bunch of people outside, apparently the entrance is through the back…haha.

Once inside, to my surprise it was FREAKIN hot, but there were TONS of hotties all over the place. The crowd seemed to be older college kid’s type and once we got some drinks (which were dirt cheap, the way I like it), found my cousins girlfriend co-workers and just hung out waiting for the band to comeback on stage. While the band was on their break they are blasting 80’s music, it was pretty cool we were just rocking to it, ll the while I kept looking around the room because like I said so much eye candy.

When the band came back on stage I notice that one of the guitar guys was really cute. He had a different look to him, he looked sort of old, but sort of young (if that makes any sense). I don’t know but he was really cute and I just stared at him for the rest of the night. After performing a few songs, which were really good, I was surprised again because apparently this was a special night and it was karaoke night with the live band. So people started going on stage, all were sing 80’s music some were good, some were bad and others made you want to jump off a cliff. In the end of the night I had a great time.

Oh and btw as we were leaving the bar at around 2 AM it was a nice and warm 85 degrees outside. Much cooler than it is right now, as I type this post it is a toasty105 degrees.
