AFTER WILMA

Sunday Night after I blogged the weather got really bad!! I was like O SHIT!!
Mon Morning it was holly shit KISS YOUR ASS GOOD-BYE type is shit going on with the weather. Our power went out around 6:30 am then from then on it was just horrible. We closed out shutters the night before so all was good but still I hate shutters you feel so lost because you can see anything that is going on outside. The worst part of anything is being able to hear shit but not seeing it.
During the hurricane I opened my shutter just to see what was going on and all you see were roof tiles all over the place so I ran outside. Yeah I did not care if I got hit I needed to make sure my car was ok :) so I ran outside and moved my car back away from the house!! Then I moved my dads car back but his car had gotten hit. Not bad INS will totally cover it but it still got hit. That was about 7am and we were not in the clear till around noon. During the time I was in and out of the house. It was crazy but we still had to see the damage that was going on.
Curiosity gets the best of you at times!!
At around noon the clean up started to begin. It was bad trees were down, cars were wrecked, fences were just mangled, and people were just devastated but all ok.
After I helped my dad clean the house up I went around the hood and started to help other people.
After a few hours of that I decided to run over to Alyssa's house to make sure all was ok and it was. She came home with me and we camped out under the stars Mon night. It was so beautiful the amount of stars that were shinning in the sky was just fucken amazing!!
Tues
NO WATER NO POWER NO ANYTHING ... I Could never live like this .... Yeah to all you Amish people FUCK THAT SHIT!!
Wed
Everyone the past 3 days were in bed by 8 no lie during an outage you only have a limit amount of things you can do to entertain yourself. I would not be surprised if 9 months from now you see Florida with a record of babies being born.
Thurs
Our Power finally came on ... it came on then went out and then came back on thank god!! I feel sorry for all those people who still dont have power!!

WHAT TO DO (During a Hurricane)
During A Hurricane
Work out- Get real tired before the storm
Digital Camera- Sometimes you just have to capture the moment
Food- Yes this is the time to eat and get fat from junk food
News- Avoid it the repetitiveness will drive you crazy
Internet- Have a laptop on hand that is your savior
Charge Cell- O yeah your life line to the outside world
Movies- Have lots on hand
AC- Crank that Bitch DOWN as low as it can go just in case
Now If Power Goes Out During A Hurricane
HOLLY SHIT is you new bestfriend phrase!!
Candles - Ahhhh lol time for puppet fun
Alcohol- Get piss ass drunk to piss the day or night away
(that goes either way power on or off)
Chips and Salsa- HELL YEAH its a drinking power out rule
Portable DVD player- Best invention but only last for 2 movies so pick good ones
Family Stress- EARMUFFS or EARPLUGS great inventions
**THIS IS THE TIME WE ALL GO CERTIFIABLY INSANE and GET FAT!!**
Hurricane Wilma (still not here)
Hurricane WilmaOMG I dont even know where to start other than WILMA is taking forever and people are going freaken LOCO around here. Including me because not only do I feel claustrophobic with the hurricane shutters up, but nothing is on tv just the news, more of the new , did I mention the news, O yeah the news is so not informing they keep repeating the same shit over and over and over and over again!! O hell yeah have to interrupt to share that they just said they are gonna break away from the news to air Desperate House Wives and Grays Anatomy tonight .... holly shit this satilate better not go out if the weather gets it does have a tendancy to crap out of its connection when it rains, and they have been predicting lots and lots of rain.
Speaking of predictions lets talk about predictions ... The Weather forecast is just a predication right??? RIGHT!! So people go to school, get an education, and then find a job that pays then to assume what the weather is gonna be like. These people are called meteorologist ..... online it says a meteorologist is an individual with specialized education who uses scientific principles to explain, understand, observe or forecast the earth's atmospheric phenomena and/or how the atmosphere affects the earth and life on the planet. This specialized education would be a bachelor's or higher degree in meteorology, or atmospheric science, consistent with the requirements set forth in "The Bachelor's Degree in Meteorology or Atmospheric Science,". Ok yeah so they get paid the big ass bucks to tell us to prepare for a hurricane that is gonna hit us by Thursday, then O wait no not today but deff by Friday ... then friday comes along and ok ok ok the hurricane has slowed down prepare for Sat .... Sat comes and goes and no Hurricane because O wait its still over Mexico so Sunday the weather is gonna be really bad I am taking get your shutters out, stock up on food, water, and whatever else you can think of, and prepare for the worse..... Just for the record today (SUNDAY) it was hot as hell, and also sunny from sunrise to sunset. It was a total beach day. No real bad weather at all and yeah the time is 6:45pm.
My point is for the past 4 days no real change has really happened but still they insist on interrupting my fucken shows to tell us the same shit we have been hearing over and over and over again. What the fuck cant they just air the news three times a day morning, noon, and night till its really gonna come. I mean shit how much of the same shit can we really take on information a day!! Wow just had a thought ... I so need to work for the news during hurricane season. Think about it they fucken work 24 hrs and hell yeah with all that overtime you so know they are made and banking!!!

Pumpkin Patch
Anyway we bought a total of 5 pumpkins (2 for me, 1 for Alyssa, 1 for Michael, and a small one for pumpkin pie) Yes I had this brilliant idea to make a pumpkin pie because I had no plans for tonight and well I just wanted to. I got home and surfed the net for no lie 1 hr looking for a recipe for pumpkin pie from scratch. Yeah let just say a from scratch pumpkin pie recipe is very very very hard to find, so since I had no luck online I decided to go to the store and folloiw a recipe out of a cooking magazines. I saw this one magazine called Holiday Recipe Card Collection 2005. I thought to myself BINGO :) and started flipping through the pages. I came across this pumpkin pie recipe and saw they had both canned pumpkin pie and also real pumpkin mix so I grabbed it and put it in my cart. I wheeled around the grocery store getting what I need to make some home made pumpkin pies :). I went to check out and well lets just say it would have been cheeper to bye 10 pumpkin pies rather than making it because the total was $39.00 O yeah and that recipe magazine was 6.99 .... Yeah WTF is right ... when it rang up I was like OOooooo WHAT ..... then just said o well i need it so I paid the guy and headed home.
I started to mutilate the pumpkin for the pie and talk about hard work. I was working on it for 2 hours till my dad came home and started to laugh at me ... after he yelled "what the hell are you doing" in his heavy greek accent (dad is a chef so he knows his shit) I told him I was making pumpkin pie and cutting up the pumpkin. He started to laugh again and said it is not happening lol you have to boil it. I said no you cut it up and mash it with a fork ...... after 30 mins of mashing with a fork I saw that my method was clearly not at all working so I looked at him and said how the hell am I supposed to know you boil it to get the skin off..... I got two big pots out and started the boiling process. After 45 mins of boiling the pumpkins I have to say it worked ... so my father that damn greek once again proved me wrong
NOTE TO SELF:::: never argue with a chef hahaha!!!
Ok so I finish the pumpkins look at my clock and notice I have been working on these pies for the past 3 hrs. Yes a friday night and I am home experimenting on making pumpkin pie from scratch I HAVE NO LIFE!!!
Ok so I start to mix the ingredients.... the more I mixed the better it looked and smelled. I was so excited and could not wait to start baking them. I originally bought 2 pie pans and after I filled them up I noticed I had a lot of pumpkin mix left over so I had to make a quick run to the grocery store. When I got home the house smelled soooooo goooooood so I was stoked i mean come one pumpkin pie from scratch no one does that anymore :) whoohoo I was so doing the happy dance!!!
I cook all 4 big pies and 12 little personal size pies and let them cool off. They looked good, smelled good, and for the record I dont like pumpkin pie at all but I was sure looking forward to trying one. Yes you read right all that work for something that I hate hahaha. The time now is 11:35pm and I attempt to just suck up hating pumpkin pie so I can try what I have been baking for the past 6 hrs ..................
A $4.00 pumpkin, $39.00 for all the ingredients, a total of 6 hrs in a kitchen, the aroma around the house is like a lit pumpkin pie candle sooooo gooooood, but lets just say smells and looks can totally be deceiving ..... THEY ARE SO GROSSSSSSSS I cant even start to tell you how bad they are.
So now we have all these pumpkin pies in are fridge that I know I am not gonna eat, bro is out of town this weekend but when he comes back he is gonna think they are just bad ... yes BAD, and tomorrow when dad tries one he is just gonna laugh his ass off when he tried my horrible pumpkin pies and never let me live this day down. Why did I not get that cooking gene ... I mean come on mom can cook, dad can cook, my whole family can cook ... I swear they so had to have swtiched me at birth in the hospital!!!
Why is it when I think up these harebrained ideas no one stops me ... ALYSSA??? DANIT??? Yeah I am talking to the both of you!!
Over all was it worth it???? Well ..... ummmmm ??? Ok Ok Ok Ok Ok the truth is O YEAH :) hey we all live and learn from out mistsakes even if it was a $43.00 and 6 hrs later gross tasting lesson ... I still had fun ..... I know that thanksgiving is just around the corner so I might just try making it again. Just to say I have and who know maybe then I will say whoohoo I did it!!
Ok Ok Ok I am all pumpkin out ..... so yeah that was my friday night .... how was yours????

Happy Birthday To Me

Today I am 26.... whoohooo you say but not in my case!! You know :) I got through 25 and still working on making it through this crazy ass year so I must say over all I am doing better than I ever imagined right now!!!
What is a Birthday??? The internet says it is the day of your birth hahaha we all knew that but in my eyes a birthday was always suposed to be all about that one person. Its the one day a year that everyone can say hell yeah this is my day, no one can do you wrong, no worries in the world, and its your total fun day no matter what!!
This year it does not feel like that it feel just like any other day nothing special!!
What sucks about my 26th birthday is that it is my first birthday without mom (I miss her a lot)!! For the past 10 months I have been dreading this day !!! I wish this day would have never come because the truth is I did not want to face the traditions alone, but now that it is here I wish it would just end!! Its been a long one so far and the time is only 1:19am I still have 23 hrs of Oct 19th to live!!

BOSTON TRIP IN A NUT SHELL
BOSTON whoohoohooo fun is all I have to say!!
FRI
First night in boston O yeah Danit showed me a good time. It a was a great start to a great trip :)!!
SAT
RAIN RAIN GO THE FUCK AWAY
It was rain rain rain all day and no lie so cold. Yeah I went from AFRICA HOT to whoohooo cold!! No lie Danit and I had to buy Boston sweatshirts off the street haha yeah talk about dorks :) but hey I got a BOSTON sweater out of it!! She showed me around town and yes we walked in the rain forever. It was funny because usally I would say hell no but the rain was different than FLA wet big old rain drops it was more of a mist most of the time . O yeah Danit had her rainboots on hahaha I will have to post a pic because it was no lie pretty damn funny. Yes I made mad fun at her but after my socks got wet I was thinking pretty smart investment!!
We met up with Danit's Friend Jesse (YES THE RINGTONE JESSE) he was fun :)!!
After we walked around we went to this place called DICKS :)!! its a funny ass restaurant and yes they are dicks (RUDE) to you at times but its all in good fun!!
They make these hats and each of our hats said this!!
Me: I found these kids at the playground.
Danit: don't eat meat but I play with it.
Lisa: It takes a lot of money to look this cheap.
Jesse: Two pump chump.
Katryn (Fun Sucker) : My legs are like 7-11, open 24 hours.
After Dicks we went to the bokkstore:
Here is that story!!
I was walking around with Lisa and just talking and people watching when three weird men came up to both of us ... they basicly corner Lisa and I. They wanted girls opinion on some qustions. We were like um ok this is akward but whatever lol and they asked us about if we married a guy would we take there last name. Lisa was like well yea I would if he asked me and was willing to spend the rest of his life with me of course I'd be honored to take his name. but I turn around a say hell no its the 21st century... Well aparently thats what this girl Victoria an ex gf said to one of the guys and they couldnt understand why she would not take his name. They went on with this whole speech about how they call this girl Vicky "slut" (it really started getting weird here) so lisa said if anything I would just dash and hifinate it. Then we both started to walk away from the werid men ..... when his friend grabbed Lisa and said "hey she has a U shaped smile" we were both like WTF and looked at eachother .... then this one guy explained about 2 types of smiles and i apparently remined him of his ex gf and told me i had a nice smile and I looked/should be an exotic dancer. That is part of what that smile meant. Then the creepy asian man at this piont starts rubbing Lisa's back and crossing over into her personal bubble and she start leaning into me freaked out. After about 20 mins of that shit danit finally came to the rescue. She called Lisa's cell phone from behine this bookshelf and we told the freaks we had to jet. We left the bookstore and headed downstairs when we over heard this girl talking about three guys and a U shaped smile. We all look at her and I made a comment ... she said yeah they asked me the same thing but I was alone ... O hell no that is fucked up at least I had Lisa with me and that was werid enough I dont even want to think about me being alone while they were talking to me so .... no way was I gonna take that shit so I ran up the stairs to tell the store people what happened... Then left before I had to see those guys again!!
SUN
Walked Walked and Walked around town. Bought some things for people (Alyssa and Michael) , hit the JASON MRAZ Concert (holly shit soooooo good) and then drank the night away. O yeah I met Danits Friend Noah hahaha lets just say he is a libra too. We posted Danits Number on a bunch of door boards in the dorm hahaha and had this one dude call her yeah it was fun college funny stuff!!
Danit was looking for some and wanted to go to her tall hotties apt (same apt as fri) yeah sorry Danit that was not gonna happen!!
We hung out at Lisa's till 4:30 in the morn just talking ... Lisa and I hit it off she is FUN danit fell alseep for a while and then I came up with this thought of flying standby again and when I called JETBLUE (my new fav airline) I made the decision to stay an extra day whoohoo !!
MON
Chill out day ... woke up at around 11 got out around noon and hit the town again!!
TUES
Tuesday morn while Danit and I were on our way to the Airport Lisa calls her to tell her about this site she found !! Well come to find out while Lisa was surfing the net she just decided to look up U and C shaped smiles (WHAT THOSE FREAK BOOKSTORE DUDES WERE TALKING TO US ABOUT) well low and behold an entire scripted conversation for guys to memorize and use to pick up chicks. On the site it said its a sure thing .... WTF is this world coming to!!
Then my flight was delayed 4 hrs
OVER ALL THE TRIP WAS A FUN AND MEMORABLE ONE
