My favorite part of the party, THE CASTLE!!!!!!

I cant wait I know I've said that like 5 times already. On and then on Saturday were gonna play with bridesmaid dresses! Also Jenna and I are gonna go visit my wedding dress. Its gonna be a great weekend. All I have to do is make it through my shift!

HAHAHA Love this show!

Girls Night

So this week is my stacation week. Ben is out in the woods hunting with Chris and Bo. Today he called me before he went to sleep (Mayo has crappy phone reception and its hard to get a hold of him) It being a guys week he was needless to say a little toasty. But I like slightly tipsy Ben he always sends me the cutest messages telling me how much he loves me and how lucky he is to have me, all the things a girl wants to hear! (not that he doesnt tell me all the time but its cute)

Ben Hunting

So any way I went to visit Pam today and have a mini girls night. We watched Dancing with the Stars, Ididnt even know who was still in the running but it was cool to watch! Then we decided it was time for some belly buttons. No not the innie/outie kind the delicious kind! My belly buttions are pretzles with Hersey kisses melted in the middle and M&M's on top. They are uber addicting, you really cant have just one! I love em!

Belly Buttion's Ingreadents

Then it was girl talk time! I like having a friend whos been through alot of what I've been through already and gives me honest advise. I hate when things get sugar coated and you hit a wall with out realizing it was coming. Shes been married to Chris for 13 years and they have two great kids. We watched a few moreshows then Knightro and I headed home.

When I got home I played on the computer for a bit. I look at a clothing website called Modcloth. I have been for about 6 months now but I never worked up the curage to buy something. I think their clothes are so cute but all their sizes are in measurements and since they dont have a physical store I cant try them on and get a feel for the sizing, which freaks me out. I dont like not knowing if what I order will fit into it or if I'll like the item. But today I was feeling adventerous and ordered a dress! I cant wait till it gets here. Fingers crossed it fits!

Holidays on the Range Dress

Then I saw that perhaps my all time favotire Lifetime movie Speak, was on So I'm indulging that guilty pleasure! I read the book with is amazing, before I saw the movie and even though it starts Kristen Stweart, yes Twilight fans Bella, whom I'm not a fan of, (she has the exact same character in all her movies and it urks me to no end I mean its called acting not play yourself over and over) they did a good job with it!

Ok well night all!

Long Work Weekend

I'm halfway through a long weekend! If you don't now how shift work works let me enlighten you....

We have a two week pay period in that time we work 84 hours split between the two weeks. The schedule to even out the work days boils down to this 2 12 hour days, 2 days off, 3 12 hour days, 2 days off, 2 12 hour days, 3 days off. If that's still confusing the days we work one week are the days we have off the next week! Which is cool because ever other weekend we have a three day weekend!

This weekend is even longer because I worked an extra day. Oh but guess what I got b***hes! I was told this by one of the fine individuals I meet at work. He didn't like me very much and he had some uncreative ways of saying so. He also said other deputies at my call were my b***hes. So that gave me two but I ended up cuffing him so I really had three! Hehehe
I cant wait till this work week is done though its gonna be a girls weekend!

Kindel 3

OK I know its over a month till Christmas but let me just put it out there I WANT A KINDEL 3

Now because I'm crappy at picking presents for myself and I only have limited ideas I only told Ben (fiancee) that I want one or else I might end up with three. And once again I want a Kindel 3 not 3Kindels. Here are a few reasons I want an e-book
1) I read like crazy!
2) I literally have run out of storage space for my books.
3) Not to make myself sound smart but I read really fast so its annoying to buy a book and be done with it in a day then have to go back to the store to buy another one.
4) It would be nice to take to work with me to read during lunch!

Now I know a $130 to a $300 dollar gift sounds really pricey for a Christmas present but I promise I'm not that mean! My birthday is in December too really close to Christmas so most of my life I've had a Birthmas. Don't get me wrong its not that my parents didn't celebrate my birthday its just we normally went to visit family over the holidays and that requires planing when your organizing travel for 4 people plus the arrangement of presents to and from different locations its alot of work. Lets add to that my Dad's birthday is in the same time frame. Its a cluster.
Oh but something really cool Ben vowed to always make my birthday a separate deal from Christmas! Isn't that so sweet! See why I loves him so much!

Haha this came up when I typed in no work!

Today is my only day off work this week. I got 4 days to go until my short week and then Jenna C is in town! Ok back to today. It was nice to be domesticated with the future hubby. We hit Wal-Mart and got some hunting stuff he needed. He leaves Sunday for a week long guys week in the woods. He so excited I think he may explode by Sunday! Then we had dinner with Chris, Pam and the fam! It was so good. Pam made pork with rice and beans. We even had brownies for desert! I introduced her to Pepsi Max which is my new crack!

I have never been a fan of diet drinks. In fact there was a time just a few months ago where I swore I wouldn't drink anything diet till I was 30 but I recently started b12 shots and I had to change my habit. And for the first few days I suffered through diet or coke zero which is alright but on a whim I bought Pepsi max. OMG its not exactly like Pepsi but its so close I cant complain!
I'm working a 6 to 6 shift tomorrow which is a super fun night shift. I'm gonna see how I like it cause I think next time they change the schedule at work that's what I'll be working. But it means I have to stay up uber late today! I also have to go get my car from service tomorrow. The extra car I took home has no headlight and the seat belt is weird it doesn't always stay locked needless to say I'm glad I only have a short drive between my house and work!
I'm off to watch some Pshyc before bed. Night all.

Redneckious

Today was reserves day two. Were getting new stuff in the dental office where I work and so some of the morning we saw new patients (as normal) but the other half we packed everything in to office into boxes. Now normally I hate packing but when its not your stuff, well not really, and you get to remodel after, sorta, AND you have 5 other people to help you, I must say its not horrible.

So after we packed up the office and did the patient check in we got sent out to the flight line to help with the Wings Over Homestead Air Show. Now its totally awesome to walk around, watch the planes, eat some (expensive) food, and .......take lots of pictures with random strangers? Apparently if you have a uniform on and your on a flight line its an excuse for everyone to ask to take a picture with you. I think over 15 people wanted a picture, it just felt weird! Here's a picture of a plane (it doesn't care if you take pictures with it)

Its a B-1 Lancer, I read the sign in front of it lol Let me tell you how many awesome people were at this air show. There were two stellar mullet men......oh wait there were three and I will give you all the amazing details.
Mullet 1) Tall dark and mullet. This was the classic picture book mullet. I mean he had a visor in the front hid the curling masses of wavy locks! So awesome.
Mullet 2) Foreign mullet. Can we say white wife beater, too short board shorts, and a curly mane of a mullet that would make a horse jealous! Soooo funny plus he walked like his s**t didn't stink. Aww false confidence how you amuse me!
Mullet 3) So wonderful we named this guy "redneckious" the red neck Greek god of mullets. He was everything a mullet wearer should be and so much more. It was a bleached blond man mullet, no shirt and only cargo shorts barley hanging on to accentuate this redneck awesomeness! It was so awesome we gave him a back story...........Redneckious king of the trailer park, beers open at the snap of his fingers, he can crush beer cans with only his fore head, women swoon for him, men wish they could be him, and all admire his glorious mullet! HEHEHE

Judging from the sun burn I realized I got some of the mullet stories may have been a result of the sun but they were funny to me! After the air show I got to go back and reposition the whole packed office into other rooms so new furniture can go in its place. Finally I was lucky enough to get release on time so I beat some of the traffic! 5 hours later I was saying hi to my fiancee! We spent a few hours with Pam, Chris and the family which was nice to say hi before I start my killer week!
But then I come home and my roomie put the chain lock on the door so I couldn't get into my apartment! I have no clean uniforms for tomorrow which means I have to wake up early to go do the laundry I was trying to do tonight. Guh! Ok well time for bed! Happy blogging!

Timelines

If your scheduled to do something why do people assume its OK to change that with out notice? Example I was told I had to be at reserves at 630 am because we had our air show this weekend which starts at 7am. Also we had a briefing at 645 am. But I assume if were reminded to come in early we would also be notified if we were expected to stay late. Well 400pm rolls around and no release notice. Rumours start to go around were being held because the air show hadn't ended. 430pm still no notice of when well even be allowed to leave. Then come 500pm same deal. At this point I'm uber pissed. 1 its just rude not to think that while were here to work we have other responsibilities we have to attend to and 2 some of us work night shifts and are so bone tired we cant really function. Finally at 530pm they release us but by this point the traffic on base is so bad it takes well over 30  minutes just to get through the gate. So at 630pm I get back to my hotel tired pissed and ready to kick someone! Thank you Air Force.

Now I'm in my room watching He's Just Not That Into You. And I really don't know why because I think the movie is kinda pathetic. I mean I wanted to like it but the female characters are so freaking needy! I mean if you cant tell if someone likes you or cant deal with the problems that occur if they don't your kinda pathetic and you definitely shouldn't get a movie!

OK well I'm off to get ready for bed cause even though I get an extra hour of sleep today I still have to do the reserve thing again tomorrow.

One day work week

That's right I said it! One day of work this week! Its my short week which means I only had two days of work anyway but I swapped with one of my old FTO's so he can take a vacation next weekend. So today I have to work but then I have the rest of the week off and I was off on Monday and Tuesday.

Speaking of awesome things I found a Mens Health with Charlie Hunnam on the cover. He plays in one of my favorite shows Sons Of Anarchy! That man is b-e-a-utiful!!!!!!!! I bought it for Ben cause he asked for it but its a added bonus cause I get to look at it too!
Here's the down side to my weekend. It a reserve weekend. That means Friday I drive 4+ hours to Miami and spend a weekend well working. Now don't get me wrong I'm so proud to be a Reservist but I've been trying for years to get switched to Tampa or maybe Cocoa Beach so I'm not hours away from base but its been a loosing battle. I think this is my last year because my contact is up in Oct of 2011. Oh well one more year of working for Uncle Sam. :-)
