Holy shit, Holy shit a swordfish almost went through my head.

So, I got a temporary promotion at work. It'll start in a few weeks. I'm going to fill in as a Business Analyst for sometime. They're hiring a temp to do my job... It'll be quite the learning experience as it's a totally new job. I'll have a new set of responsibilities. I also got a Star Award at work... it's something they do when they feel someone's done an excellent job. The new supervisor nominated me for it because of the manual and training I did.

In other news... I went to see Get Smart. It was the hardest I've laughed in a while. Brian and I were cracking up during the movie and after we left the theater. Hmm... there's other news... oh yeah, Brian listens to Spice Girls and Fergie. (Although he generally has good music taste). I'm looking forward to the 4th of July and an extra long weekend!!

I think that's about it... I'll keep ya'lls posted with my temp assignment.

Another weekend

I can't really say that the weekend has been eventful. I went to the drive-in on Friday. That was a bit of fun. I really enjoyed the Kung Fu Panda movie, but I fell asleep during Iron Man. I looked interesting, but I was too tired.

Yesterday, Brian and I hung around the house. We roasted marshmallows in the fireplace. I managed to get covered in soot.

Today we're going to a park a ways from here and picking up some pizza on the way. I'm quite excited. I think we'll take the camera and snap a photo or two.

If only it were real...

So, that's not the real Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince trailer, but it's an extremely well done fan made trailer. I can't wait for it to come out!!!

Mini-Vaca Better Late than Never

I know it's a week later, but here's my reportaje on my mini-vacation with Brian.

We went to Port Townsend on Sunday last week. We stopped in Bremerton first and visited Bev and Randy then my dad and Gwen. It was definitely a nice visit and I enjoyed seeing everyone.

Brian and I got to Port Townsend around 3 p.m. I forgot what the name of the hotel was so I had to use the email function on my phone. Once we figured out where we were headed, we parked and walked about down-town Port Townsend for a bit. The shops had a lot of neat stuff in them. I liked the book store. I bought some cute prints at an antique store there. I contemplated this red table, but they were closed when we headed back that way and weren't open in the morning when we left.

The hotel we stayed at was called the Belmont.We checked into our room and spent a little *private* time in there. Our room had a huge bathroom, an old wardrobe, bay Windows and a neat brick wall. I liked that our window overlooked the street below us.

We dined at the restaurant under our hotel. The restaurant was nice too. We decided to split an entree and get an appetizer. We got Seafood Linguine. We watched the other people and had a laugh while we made up information about the other diners.

After dinner, we headed to Fort Worden. I was excited for Brian to see the bunkers there. I've been there quite a few times and feel quite familiar with the area. Brian hadn't been in bunkers before and was all excited about the history. It turns out we missed a lot of the bunkers there... but we did see a beautiful sunset together.

We slept well in our hotel. I felt like an old couple. Brian was reading the newspaper and I was cuddled up next to him reading a book. Brian was interested in this couple that made a homestead.

The next morning we packed up and went to Fort Flagler. It was freezing cold! We decided to cook up some hotdogs in a firepit. I was so bummed out that I didn't have marshmallows to roast. Then Brian was a sweetheart and bought me some at the store there. *le sigh* After we ate and packed a snack, we set out on a hike that was supposed to pass by a few bunkers. Well, we went on the beach and not the trail, lol. We didn't see one bunker! We tried what we thought was the trail back, but it wasn't the trail. So, we walked back on the beach. It was a nice three mile hike. Brian and I took some cool pictures. I'll share them as soon as he takes them to get developed.

When we got back to the car, we were exhausted! We headed home after that.

I have to say that it was one of the nicest short trips I've had in quite a while. I think we'll go back to Fort Worden and Fort Flagler to see the bunkers we missed. I'm glad we have the time to take these little romantic vacations together.

Bali Flower Bra

So, I'm working and watching TV... which involves not really paying too much attention too TV. However, one commercial caught my eye. It's a commercial for a Bali bra that has petals to cover one's nipples. Their tag was "So you look flawless" ...since when are nipples flaws? I mean, they're natural and seeing them isn't like flashing the vag. Gah, it's really quite despicable how ads make women feel they must cover up and conceal natural and normal parts of the human body.
