BBQ's and summer movies

Last night I had the BBQ at my house. Even though the weather was crappy it was a great time. Meg and the dog she is sitting came, Lisa H and her friend Karen, Lis, Jon, and Lukey, and Sarah. Laura and Ryan came as well.
When Jon and Ryan got here they went out in the shed and BBQ'd the hamburgers. I decide when I was going to have everyone down that it would be a hamburger party. I supplied the burgers and fixin's and the gang would bring everything else. It was shades of Meg's dinner instead of pasta we had an overload of cookies.
We all sat around the table eating and talking it was great. I really should have them down more often.
Today mom and I went to the mall as I had to pick up my Harry Potter book and we went to the movie License to Wed.....so funny I heart Robin Williams. It was a great movie that had lots of laughs....a good weekend movie. Then we walked around the mall and went to Fog City for supper which was yummy as usual.
I hope that everyone who came last night had a good time and go see the movie.

Love you all

First meetings

In a couple of posts ago I mention that Jonathan (the guy) emailed me (finally) about meeting, anyways I just got home from meeting the guy, so I thought that I would do a post about it. We went to Chapters/Starbucks (my choice). I got a coffee and we sat down to talk.
First opinion was that he was cute and tall. I also thought about running my hands though his hair. I didn't get that weak in the knees feeling but I wasn't thinking get me out of here. We talked a lot about a lot of different things. He is very much into politics and issues that are in the news today. I found the talk of politics a little dull but then I don't follow that much and I'm sure if I started rambling on about hockey or sound equipment he would feel the same way. We walked around the store talking about what we like to read and the like. At one point I was saying that I talk a lot and he said that he liked listening to me, I thought that was good as to me it meant that he like what I was talking about. He did talk as well but as I feel in most situations, I am talking to much (we all know I do love to talk).
The store closed so we left he said that he was up for going somewhere else but where I have to work in the morning I said that I should go home. That led to talking by my car for about 30 minutes.
Another thing he told me before he left was that I reminded him of a friends girlfriend that he once had a crush on.....I think this was good as he was like this is in your favor.
Over all I had a good time no weak in the knees but when he hug me it did feel good. Who knows where this may go I'm just going to take it one day at a time. But stupid me forgot to ask if he was single.....

I'm NOT HOMELESS...in the fall

I guess by the title you can guess what the post is about. I got the call this week letting me know that I have a room in a chalet for the fall. WHOOO!!! this takes so much stress and worry off of me. The two best things....I don't have to buy a tent for the first couple of weeks while I was waiting.....and I get a FULL size twin bed.

Love you all

Lis I am going to listen to you....

As with everyone I had a wicked time last night. It was so good just to munch and talk. We all had different things to say. It was great. I'm sure the next one is going to be just a good.
Now this has to do with the title of the post, when I got home today I checked my gmail as usual and guess what? I had an email from the guy and a notice saying that he had added me to facebook. He said that he hasn't forgotten about me and that he procrastinated longer then he meant to. So Lis I am going to listen to you from now on. I am going to reply to him and see if we can get together soon. I will get you all posted on what happens.
I have started something yesterday at work, during lunch I go for a walk. Just down the road from the building there is a walking trail. Mount Pearl has them everywhere, I walk for a half hour. I am going to walk every lunch that it is not raining. The trail is nice and with my iPod to bop along to very enjoyable.
As you know I have a wedding this summer in August, I was allowed to take a guest and decide that the fairest thing to do is pick from a hat. I figure that way everyone has a chance. Anyways I had to confirm the invite .....the name was picked......Lisa H. This is provided that she is still in Newfoundland on August the 4.
That's it for now

Love you all

plenty of fish in the sea.....any of for me?

About a month ago I was watching the Today in the morning waiting to go and pick mom up. It may be dorky but I love the Today show. Anyways they had this segment on about a free online dating site that is making the guy who runs it millions of dollars. I decide to check it out just to see what if anything would come from it, lets face it I have tons of friends and I love you all but I miss having someone in my life that way. I know I have not had a lot of that but you do tend to miss it. Anyways I sent an email to some guys on the site and with luck one guy made contact with me first. I read his profile and he seemed to be a nice guy nothing creepy about him, we had some things in common so I responded. We emailed on the site a few times and then gave each other our own "real" emails so we would not have to log into the site after getting an email saying that one or the other had emailed the other. We agreed that we wanted to meet and chat, I listed coffee at Chapters as a good first date, public place and lots to talk about. I suggested that we meet last Saturday afternoon, plans got broken because at the last minute he had to help his cousin move, I understood because I understand when its family. Anyways he sent me an email on Sunday again saying that he was sorry for having to break our plans. This was the last email that I received from him, and I did reply saying that it was fine and that he could pick a time to meet as I was the one with the free time. So to wrap this up it looks like I got the short end again and I am just left wondering why am I such a great friend to have, for guys, but nothing more?

Love you all

Nickelback kick ass

As most of you know Lisa H and I went to Nickelback last week and it was amazing. It rained and was cold but I could not have cared. I enjoyed the other bands, Stained and Finger Eleven both had awesome set but the band that I went to see was Nickelback (duh) and they did not disappoint. Their set was roughly 2 hours long and they played my favorite two songs as the encore. I can not wait till I am working on a show like that.
In my last post I metion that mom, Lisa H, and I were going to see 1408. The movie was good but I did not find it that scary it had a good mess with your mind factor and story. John Cusaick(sp) is a great actor and he carries that movie.
Short post but thats it for now.

love you all
