My ramblings...

Wow! Where did the time go? I know it has been forever since I updated, while I have been on spring break I haven’t really spent a lot of time at my computer. So what have I been doing you ask. Well not a whole hell of a lot. We had planned on going kayaking last weekend however the weather decided not to cooperate with us. The week before it was a beautiful week and would have been great for kayaking but the minute we try and go it is rainy and cold. So instead of being able to do something outside we had to find something inside to do. Since you can only watch so many movies we (me and Heather) made a purchase. We bought a PlayStation 2. This was a mistake the first 3 days we had the thing the only time it was off was when we were sleeping. We bought 4 games total and we have already beaten two of them. One we beat in a sitting, didn’t go to bed until 6 am but we beat the game. Let’s see... what else. I think on Tuesday I started coming down with something. I had a fever and my throat was starting to get tight. Well the next morning it was verified my throat was killing me and I could bearly talk without pain. Off to the store I went to get some drugs. I also made another purchase for us, I bought a mixer. Ok not that big of a deal unless you like to cook and don’t have one. The whole reason behind the mixer was so I could make my New York style cheese cake. Although I was starting to feel like crap I decided to venture on and make my cheese cake. The actual process of making the cake is easy.. the baking of the cheese cake, that is complicated. I was a little nervous as it was my first one and had read that the biggest problem is splitting of the cake. Well mine came out with out any problems. The surface of the cake got a little doner than I would have liked to seen it but by no means burnt. No cracks and no imperfections otherwise, and let me tell you it is absolutely wonderful. I wish it was possible for all of you to try this cake as it is out of this world. Several of you got a chance and hopefully at some point in the future more of you will get the chance to try it. I also wanted to make crème brulee, thus far I have not tried this recipe however it will have to be sometime this week as I have all of the supplies already in the frig, perhaps after the cheese cake is gone. Thursday came and passed and the weather was crappy again. Heather had to work both Wednesday and Thursday so I had to entertain myself both days. Wednesday wasn’t a big deal as I was working on the cake and dinner. Thursday on the other hand, I was really feeling like crap and had to go out to Williston and drop some stuff off at the parents house.

The real fun came with the last two days. Friday by some miracle I was feeling much better which was good as we had planned on going to Universal for the afternoon. Off we went and ran into some nice construction on the turnpike, what fun. We finally got down there and to our benefit lines were almost non-existent. We rode everything we wanted to multiple times and waited no more than 15 minutes. I could tell that I was still recovering from my illness but was still having a good time. After we were theme parked out we headed out and were going to see a movie. White Noise was what we were looking for and since neither Heather or I had been to the movies in such a long time (with the exception of Constantine earlier in the week) we didn’t know if it was still playing. We tried at two different huge theaters in Orlando and it wasn’t playing at either so, we watched The Pacifier. That turned out to be a really good movie. Not one I would tell you that you had to go see in the theaters but you should definitely put it on your movies to rent when it comes out. Anyways, back home we headed in preparation for what turned out to be the most fun I have had in a while. Saturday night Bonnie came over to chill with us here in G-ville. Well I had to cook, just cause! Heather and Bonnie played the PS2 while I slaved in away in the kitchen. After dinner and cheese cake we headed out to play a round or two of pool. A round or two of pool turned into going to a club and (brace yourselves) Larry dancing. I know, I know, normally I would have never done this but I had some lessons a couple months back on one drunken stupor night in Chiefland. Interestingly enough there was also alcohol involved last night and had it not been for the two shots of Gold Slauger(sp) and the two or three (I have lost count) Crown and Cokes I probably would have been a little more resistant to the idea. I got out there nonetheless and had a good time. As I was the DD it was a good way for me to burn off that little bit too much alcohol I had in my system. Before I knew it, it was 2 am and they were kicking us out of the club. Back to the house we headed, I had two extremely intoxicated ladies that I had to take care of. Needless to say it is an evening I will not soon forget, I will not go into the detail of the evening as that just wouldn’t be right. Ladies I will refresh you memories on anything you would like on a one-one basis as I doubt you two remember much. The night finally ended and the morning/afternoon emerged. And that brings us to now, I am trying to get the house back in some order and wash my cloths for the coming week ahead, ah back to school and work!!! What fun, until next time.
