Even though Chris never reads my blog I thought I should mark the day of his birth. So... Happy Birthday Christopher... On this your last birthday as a single man! MWAHAHAHAHA!!

I bought Chris a smokin' smoker grill. It's fancy! With a firebox! And I successfully kept it a secret for two whole months! I did good.
We were supposed to have a great time grillin' for his birthday but alas the burn ban is cramping our style. You're all invited to our "Burn Ban BBQ Bash" to be held the day they lift this thing.
Chris received a fun gift from his truck today– Antifreeze leaking like Niagra all over the street. I totally win cause my gift was way better.
Speaking of Antifreeze... "they" always say that the reason kids suffer from antifreeze poisoning is because of its great, sweet taste. Does anyone else have a sneaking desire to try some? Just a little bit... not enough to make me sick.. just enough to see what's the big deal. Don't worry I'm not going to go lick my driveway.

A List:
1. What's more self-indulgent than blogging? Posting surveys!
2. When you offer to drive your good friend Willis to the airport at 5 in the morning, make sure he has all of his flight information. Otherwise you'll be sitting in the airport till 7 and end up driving back and forth between Shawnee and the airport 2 more times.
3. When you offer to pet-sit a 15 year old dachshund for the above friend, make sure you let him out at least twice during the night and up to 6 times during the day. Otherwise, in the morning you'll find your cashmere sweater balled up in the floor and soaking wet...and that's not water (and don't you dare say "what was your sweater doing on the floor in the first place?").
Tip: When he's whining next to your bed at 4 in the morning it's not because he wants to get in bed with you, it's because he really needs to go outside.
4. When discussing wedding plans with your mom, make sure you tape record the conversation or have a witness present. Miscommunication abounds. From now on, Mom, I'm taking notes ;)
and here's the big one...
5. Nina's moving back to Shawnee!! Yay Nina! Yay Shawnee!
