A pretty good post?

Ok, so I haven’t blogged in a while. And why not? Because. That is why. Anyway, this promises to be a long post. I suppose there has been a lot. Hmmmm. Now if I could only think of it. He he. It’s been raining here for about 5 1/2 days straight. On the first day, I came down with a cold. Guess what? I still have it. About 20 minutes ago the rain stopped. I’m hoping it is for good. At least for more than a few hours. That way I can ride my motorcycle more often. I gots places to go. Anyway, not that the rain is gone, I’m hoping that my cold with leave with it. I sure hope it does. I don’t really want a cold with this weekend coming up. It is going to be a busy weekend. Tonight, I head to Gabe’s with Gavin to play music and have a good time while Mary takes Yuri to the opera, while Holly gets the night to herself. Tomorrow morning Holly and Mary go off at 6 am to a librarian conference while Gavin and I paint the town. Then later that night Holly and I go to an 80’s themed Birthday party. Sunday morning Mary and I ride off to a RSCDS board meeting for a few hours. Then Sunday afternoon/evening, Holly and I go to the opera for an evening of great music. Then it’s home and into bed so Holly can get up all early like for work. And that is our weekend.

So how about things of the past? I am done with the theatre. And since then, I have been awesome. I had a few shlumpy days here and there, but they were the good kind. Like the kind I had in college. Shlumpy because I needed to be creative. Frustrated because my creativeness was at a minimum. So I whipped out my writing book and guitar and got creative. That fixed that. I get to play music every Friday now. That helps and is completely awesome. I went to Volcano Joe’s with Holly this past Monday. It was a really nice time. The only problem was that I played like crap. Sort of. I played Foo Fighters’ “Everlong”, which I have never tried live, because it is hard for me to sing and play at the same time. But I seemed to do ok. Then next song, I bombed. I played Metallica’s “Enter Sandman”. See, now, the first song requires a drop D tuning. And the second song doesn’t. And when I played the second song, I didn’t switch back. That doesn’t help me sound good. But whatever. I played “Everlong” good, so whatever. I have spent quite a few nights out with Holly and it’s wonderful. On Wednesday, when we were supposed to go to dancing, we took the night off and went to go see “Nanny McPhee”. We have been out shopping and out eating and what not. Holly has been running and has gotten back on the waggon. Back in control. As am I. I feel good. Should I blame the theatre? Nah. I let many things get to me. Now I have rid myself of them. And if not, I have at least made peace with them and learned how to deal with them. So now here I am feeling good. And can you blame me. Holly and I stopped at the bank to open a savings account. We are officially saving up to buy a house. We already have some money saved. Houses are dropping in price. We will be looking into buying by next Christmas. Things are on their way. Also, my sister is getting married in April. She is also going to give birth again in late July. Maybe the 29th? Hmmm. Then this summer Holly, Gavin and I are going to NY on vacation. I can’t wait. Lake George, here we come. I so look forward to Lake George. We need to set a date for that so we can let people know when the party will start.

I don’t know if this is as long as I was thinking, but I think it’s a pretty good post. I think. Whatever.

Happy Anniversary!

Thursday was our 3rd wedding anniversary. We couldn’t really decide on what to do for it. We finally decided that after Holly got home from work that we would head over to Ala Moana and do whatever. We were starving by the time we got there, so we headed to the new Macaroni Grill in the mall. It was very nice. We enjoyed a super good supper while being reminiscent. Holly was very pretty in a cowel neck shirt. She was so beautiful to look at. And she was wearing a wonderful pair of jeans. Wink, wink. After dinner we roamed the mall. Mostly looking for something to buy Gavin. Poor thing hardly saw his mom all day. Finally we found a Thomas book and another cute little book and headed home. It was 9:15 by the time we got home. Gavin was of course waiting for us (mom). We all brushed our teeth and hopped into bed for a good nights sleep.

Happy Valentine’s Day

Holly came home a wee bit early so we could take Gavin to get his TB test for entrance to preschool. Gavin was so good. He didn’t fuss or anything. They stuck him with a wee needle and he didn’t seem to feel a thing. We then proceeded to the nearest Thai food place, only to discover that this place was closed from 2-5. So I then dragged Holly to Kailua to the next nearest Thai food place. We ordered a good amount of food and drove it home for all to enjoy. We stuffed ourselves good. Probably too good. We then lounged around for a bit until it was time for Gavin to take his bath. The day ended shortly after. Gavin and Holly zonked out. I followed very soon after. Overall, we ate Thai food, chocolate and played with balloons. It was a nice relaxing day.

Friday night.

This should be a very exciting Friday night. Holly and Mary get to go to the first opera of the season. As per tradition they will head out early for dinner before heading to the opera. Holly bought a beautiful red dress to wear for the occasion. I will be taking pictures before they leave. When they head out, Gavin and I will be meeting a fellow musician, picking up a few goodies, and going to Gabe’s house to rock out. Should be interesting.

My first week of being free from the theatre has been great. I love not having to go to work at 4pm. I love not getting done with work at 2am. I have got a lot done for Karatedepot and they are excited.

After reading some Curious George books with Gavin, I finally took him to go see the movie. He really enjoyed it. It showed during his nap time, but he stayed awake the whole time. He laughed and giggled and all that good stuff. It was a cute movie. Although I didn’t really like the Drew Barrymore character. Eh, whatever. George was really cute.

Ahhh, technology

Well, we’ve done it. We turned into one of those couples. We sat for 4 hours while I worked on Everythingfitness.com and chatted on IM. I had my webcam on and she her microphone. I just have to get an iSight and we’ll never have to interact in person again.
