Mmmmm...

There it is: Joy.

I was reading Andrea's blog today and I saw that she has a doughnut once a year and I was thinking to myself, " Once a year, huh? That seems about right. " And why just once a year? Most likely because they are really bad for you. That's why I don't eat them. But where is that willpower coming from? Why can't I look at ice cream and say, " That's really bad for me....I think I'll wait for a special occasion to have that."

My Dad always said not to drink Mountain Dew. Too much sugar (I'm assuming) for a youngin'. So I just figured I wouldn't like it. To this day I think I don't like Mountain Dew just because he said.

So what's the difference? In the first instance, you have a willpower to only have a doughnut once a year. And in the second instance, you have the willpower to think you will not like something because someone said no. I know they are two very difference situations, but I really think they are not too far off from each other.

Can I be told not to like something? Was it a form of hypnosis? Did my Dad wave a pendulum infront of my face saying, " You will not like Mountain Dew "? Probably not. But why have I carried the tiniest bit of willpower when it comes to a Mountain Dew and a doughnut?

Who knows. But that does sound like a breakfast of champions!

Its true!

It's true. I am engaged!!!!! Sorry for the delay in postings. I seem to say this every time, and every time I mean it ....but I just wish we could get the computer fixed!! ( I tend to start going into rages about not having a computer! So I will stop that now)

*deep breath*

Ok. So yes. I am engaged. (Oh my!) It happened May 3rd while I was getting ready to go out for my birthday. I thought it was a joke so I just kept asking him if this was for real. Turns out, yes. Yes it was for real. I just got the ring back yesterday from getting it sized. It was way small for my sausage like fingers. (I hate myself a little bit).

Things with the wedding plans are going ok. We don't have a location yet, but we have a LOT of things figured out. We want the wedding to be May 22, 2009 (Friday). We want it outside, possibly on a lake, and under a tent. Not a 6 person tent....a 200 person tent. That is seemingly to be the most difficult part of the wedding planning. As it turns out, most people don't want to rent out their home to 200 strangers. Who woulda thunk?

I guess that is all for now. I will try to update more. Its seriously difficult to drive 15 min everyday to e-mail someone or check the weather online. (No cable at home). *getting worked up again* Grrr!!!!!

Ok, I'm out.
