Beach trip

This weekend was so much fun! Friday night I went to Heather’s engagement party at her aunt’s house. When I walked in she ran to meet me and we jumped up and down and screamed. Meanwhile her family was looking like who in the world is this. Yay I am her Maid of Honor that’s who! Then I went to Diflipo’s with my mom and little bro and his friend Alex. Diflipo’s is this pizza place in Ozark it has the best pizza (better than pizza hut ;) even) and an amazing Italian Sub!

Saturday morning we got up and Michael took forever to get ready. We finally left an hour or so after we had planned the drive down wasn’t that bad. We stayed at the Holiday Inn SunSpree the beach was beautiful! Momma laid out while Michael, Alex and I went for about a mile long walk on the beach from the motel to Pineapple Willy’s. We were walking on a sandbar ankle deep and suddenly Alex stepped off of it and fell in up to his chest. Michael turned around and stayed dry, but I kept walking. By the time the sandbar ended the water was waist deep for me. In case you were wondering, the Gulf of Mexico is chilly this time of year think low 70’s.

Saturday night Michael wanted to eat at Pineapple Willy’s, it was the worst food ever and $88 for four people. We could have gone to the Treasure Ship for that! Then we went to Cobra and rode go carts. I almost overtook Michael from three cars back! If Alex had gotten out of my way about 100ft sooner I would have won! Oh well it was lot’s of fun.

We went back to the motel and momma and I went out to the hot tub. While we were out there a guy started hitting on her. Later she made a comment about having a grown daughter, and he looked very confused. She then told him I was her daughter. He asked, “Just how old are you?” When she said 42 I thought he would drown in the hot tub. So my question is this: you are a 33 yr old guy, do you hit on me or my mom. It was so funny.

Sunday we went out in the ocean for about an hour, very cold. The water was so pretty I had to go out in it. We stayed out up to our shoulders until the boys disappeared from the beach. Those wimps were tired and went back up to the room to watch TV. For lunch we went to Sweet Basil’s. By the time we got back to Ozark the boys had gotten on my last nerve. I hopped in my car and came back home.

The pets were happy to see me when I got here, the dogs ran right in and to the kennel for the night. I guess they got cold over the weekend.

Single... Again

I keep thinking that my life will settle down soon. I have, in recent hours, come to the conclusion that….*Drum Roll Please* I have relationship ADD! It’s true. Now I know some of you are formulating your response already, but please read on with an open mind.

Let’s look at the facts:

Relationship #1
Great guy, motivated, hard working, nicely dressed, hard body, cool family
What I didn’t like… Clingy and his *prepare yourself* teeth! Those two things drove me nuts.

Relationship #2
again great guy, successful, determined, motivated, helpful, supportive, complimenting, Great Family!
What I didn’t like … still not sure just wasn’t happening


I could go on but those are recent and fresh on my mind. The point is that when I get what I want, I become bored. Am I setting myself up for a bad relationship? The relationships I stay emotionally attached to are always the ones that are somewhat unhealthy. Like I have that grass is greener on the other side mentality. It is terrible.

I enjoy being independent, but I would like to find “the one” soon. I hate coming home to only 3 dogs and a cat. I miss the interaction with friends. I like cooking dinner and talking about the day with someone. I know you aren’t supposed to look for romance, but geez I dislike being alone. It is ok for some girls to stay single till their late 20’s or even later, but I sure hope I meet someone soon.

All of that to say friends and sisters start playing match maker again. I have extinguished yet another relationship.

Ohio

Thursday: Leave for Ohio at 11:00pm
Friday: Breakfast in Bowling Green around 9 followed by shopping on the square with Marla...(De and Tocco hate the wraps we bought)We made it to Toledo around 10:30 checked into the motel and slept for a few hours. Sometime later we went to Megan's parents' house for the rehearsal dinner...There was a keg...and Vodka...

Fun times were had by all...
Post wedding reception: Durty Bird Bar "I want to try a beer" "What would you like?" ask Tocco "A Heineken!" after unsuccessfully trying to get me to change my order he gets me a heineken... GROSS but I let pride get the best of me and choked down half b4 leaving.
