Unexpected Yogurt Date: Help Us

Ugh, I know. I need to start posting here more. Not that I’ve been neglecting it on purpose, but most everything we do is recorded and put on our Youtube channel – www.youtube.com/ourlifeintext – so go check it out! We’re almost to our goal of 500 subscribers! So if you like us, subscribed … if you don’t, then don’t. :)

Anyways, last night was fun! Summer came home from work, and everything was going “as usual” but then she mentioned some yogurt place that she had seen on the way home. It is so cleverly named “The Yogurt Spot” which made it a little easier to find.

So we got off the the couch and went to check it out. First impression, wow really cool place and only 39 cents per ounce so you can build any kind of masterpiece you want. Although no one greated us nor helped us we just kind of wandered around aimlessly doing whatever we wanted. I’m not sure if we suppose to get our own topping because they were “behind the counter” -ish, but the employees were just staring at us not saying anything.

It started to get a little stuffy inside, with people, so we took our party to the outside tables. I felt like we were on a first date again. Sitting there, sharing yogurt, feeding each other cherries (she stole some of mine), and just talking/laughing!

It was a great time, and a perfect way to turn a bad day at work around!

Dance Forest Dance!

Wanna know what some of my mornings are like? This is how it goes…

I wake up in the morning feelin’ like P Diddy. :D

Just kidding…but I do dance around the kitchen with a bag of chips in my hand whilst I listen to Ke$ha!

Cause I’m doing that right now. Doesn’t that just blow your mind?

Oh and I would dance to Bob Dylan’s Hurricane but it doesn’t really have the same effect….

And now we’re looking like pimps in my gold Trans-Am! I should probably go look for some socks now…

Still Lingering Thing

I still feel the presence of the Tailypo. Everyday I hear its claws clicking on the pavement as it rushes towards my car door to get in. You don’t understand… I have this huge fear that I can fend off an attacker….but not a Tailypo. I feel as if I am unprepared. The scratching noise it makes on the back door right after Howard leaves in the morning. The way the dogs growl at random spots in the house. Maybe it’s not visible to the human eye. There is definitely something out there. One day it will come for me. And I won’t be ready.

In other news….Happy Belated Birthday Nuna!!!! My Aunt Nuna’s birthday was the 12th and I forgot to call her. I’m sorry. But I know she reads this so I figured I’d wish her a happy birthday on here.

And looking forward to some Farmers Market shopping!

Oh and the photo is an outtake from something I was working on before. I just happened to use Howard as a fill in. I love it. :D

Serious post is serious.  -.-

To The Weekend With Cupcakes

It’s the face again. Yeah sorry about that. Haha. Well I wondering if there were really people out there that fell for the whole Chase bank calling you and getting information. I’m not sure but I think you usually have to contact the bank first. Just wondering about that stuff. Heard that on the news while back and thought I might bring it up.

I am making cupcakes this weekend. Little iSub cupcakes. Then I will eat them all. :D Or I will try to.

My new favorite song is the Bed Intruder Auto Tune! I cannot stop singing it. It’s so catchy!

Summer’s Birthday

Today was … yep, you guessed it … Summer’s birthday!! We are slowly running out of presents to get her, but the girls and I put our heads together and I think she was pretty happy.

Super Mario Bros. for the Wii came out more than a year ago, and the price never dropped, but I thought what better time for us to experience it than to get it for Summer – so I did just that. Wow, we really love this game! Mainly because we can both play at the same time (although Summer was jumping on my head most of the time, and I was stealing her power-ups). We haven’t gotten that far into it just yet, but I can see us spending hours on end playing this together. Great investment here.

Next, she needed a camera bag because when we want to go ride bikes or even just take the camera anywhere we’re so afraid to mess it up. Sometimes she asks me to hold on to it, so I have to cradle it like a baby because I’m not going to be responsible for breaking it, no no. So I purchased a camera bag for her, one that was rather deep so, if needed, she didn’t have to take it apart – she could just throw it in there and go. There’s plenty of room for our other cameras as well so it works out well all-around.

Finally she needed some more of her favorite lipstick, Kat von D: Lolita. One day awhile ago we went to Sephora and she was looking for a different shade that she wanted to get, and accidentally picked up this one. Well without going back to return it I guess she grew to love it because now she wears it ALL the time and claims it to be her absolute fav! I felt a little awkward going into Sephora by myself in the mid-afternoon in my work clothes, but I didn’t care … I was on a mission. :)

If Summer ends up reading this, I just want to say that I hope you had a great birthday and the girls and I both love you more than anything.

P.S. This is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were both removed. (Sorry, I was listening to Mitch Hedberg earlier.)

Black and White Make Fleas Go Bye-Bye

We have a new video but we will post that tomorrow. For now you get my face. :D Actually, what I really wanted to talk about was how we are doing. I have not posted recently because I’ve been feeling a little sluggish. The reason for feeling that was is because Howard and I have not been eating well lately. Things have been crazy around the house so we picked up fast food here and there…well let me tell ya.. BAD IDEA. We are not big fast food eaters to begin with. And we definitely fall into the category of only eating fast food because it is more convenient. But good thing is we are now back on track to eating healthy again so we are full of energy. Right now I’m editing some photos which we will post on flicker either tomorrow or the next day.

The past week we have been cleaning the house like crazy. Sookie is shedding everywhere and it’s triggering some sneezing. UH OH! Is right. I have really bad allergies when it comes to dust and animal fur flying all over the place. That is under control now and we’ve got some park playing to do. Speaking of which….we went to the park recently for the girls and discovered some interesting characters out there. I’ll just say there was one thirsty lady. :D

OH and my new favorite kind of apple is Pink Lady. SO DELICIOUS!!!! And the plumbas are so scrumptious!

Our poor fish is all alone. One guppy in a 10 gallon tank. I think he needs some friends but we’re scared he will get beat up by the new kids. Hopefully not. I don’t think we will be getting more anytime soon. I kind of like him in there with all the snails. OH boy are there so many snails.

I love club soda.

Here’s something I was working on a while back… not much.

7.25.10    11:14pm

I am only going to write for a limited time because it’s already way past my bedtime. I just wanted to say how I will be trying to get back to taking photos. I loved doing it so much and since I’ve stopped I’ve felt a little sad. This weekend we had Olivia’s wedding on Friday which was so beautiful. Then we had an awesome time watching INCEPTION again but this time with a good friend of ours, Michael. I’m sorry but that movie is amazing. Very rarely do I find a movie I could stand watching for hours back to back…over and over. If you haven’t watched it yet…oh man..I don’t know what to say other than it’s up there with Fight Club. Howard and I claim this to be one of our favorite movies now. I suppose if you are not used to these type of movies then you’ll probably get lost at first. Definitely go and see this movie.

We are  trying to work on more vlogs but there’s been little time to do that lately. We do however have a new vlog to post, I just don’t know when we will update it. I know I said I would update this more often with pictures and all that jazz but give me a little more time to do some editing and whatnot. I should have pictures up soon and you will be happy. They are not the best but for right now they will have to do.

*haha. Howard is snoring ….*

Tomorrow morning I will most likely write another short blog. I am really trying to keep up.

Until next time….good night. Don’t let the bed bugs bite.

P.s.

Starcraft comes out soon! Yay!!

As you can tell….I did not post the next morning. I’m so good at that. HOWEVER, if you keep reading for the next few days you will see that I make up for that. :D

Until further notice… I am Summer…signing off.

Finally a Good Day of Tennis, Sneezy

I know, I know … Howard you never post anymore. Well, haha, I am posting now — so silence. I’ve been super busy with Youtube, and promoting our channel, and the forums, and sendin our wristbands, etc. Cut me the smallest slice of slack you can afford.

Of course, we’re still playing tennis, but it seems lately our game is slipping. I’m not going to lie, if someone was seeing me play for the first time I’d be ridiculed. I feel like a newb out there sometimes, and I get frustrated only because I know I am better than I was performing.

All of that ended yesterday! Summer and I loaded up and hit the courts. Oh, you know the “cool kids” were there playing soccer on the first court, so we took the second. From the first hit to the last I was impressing myself, which is *insert a thumbs up*. I like feeling good about something I am doing.

Yeah, so that’s my cool story. I know you loved it.

Omg, I just sneezed like 7 times in a row which reminded me that Summer’s allergies have been acting up. I’m not sure if it’s the seasons, or if she really is allergic to baby Sookie. :( I hope not. She takes medicine, but no effect most of the time. But, I now know I should invest into some Kleenex stock.

Look Waiter, My Dogs Are Barking

This may be a long post and I have to get through as much as I can.

Last week was our anniversary which was wonderful! Our friends made us a really awesome cake in the shape of a robot. :D

But a funny thing that happened was when we went to Texas Roadhouse. Our waiter was probably one of the nicest/weirdest people we met. I don’t really mean weird in a bad way….ok we’ll just say he was overly nice. And when Fez tried to befriend him….oh goodgess he was so excited. I remember him telling us he was going to the beach on Monday because he was off.. I’m just saying this guy was crazy (not in a bad way) for friendship. Maybe he really was just a nice person but you don’t see that very often so we mistake it for being weird.

Now I know I promised about…omg  the dogs are barking and i’m scared.

This weekend should be full of updates and whatnot. I have lots of pictures. I have some stories. I have post all this stuff. Oh and we have a new video coming up today around noonish? Any suggestions on a good tripod. I know which one I want but it’s  a lot of money and well….I should probably test out other things first. BUT I’m looking into a remote as well. There are so many things to do….

Konad!

Creps and Coffee

A bunch of creepy stuff has been happening. I feel as if someone is going to come up behind me and grab my neck as I write this. I don’t think it’s “living in fear” just more of a curiosity of why people would want to wander in a neighbor’s yard. That’s ok because I have my fat guard dogs here. OMG she’s so cute right now snuggling the pineapple pillow. :D Our poor baby has fleas and the stuff you put on their neck isn’t working fast enough. I think maybe we will give her another bath. So many things have gone one since I last posted and will try to bring you up to date later tonight but for right now I just wanted to say that I had a great weekend. I love the robot cake.

Wow, I really need to upload some pictures on here. I know I keep talking about it but I really need to get down to it.

So expect an update from me later on tonight. :D

Have a great day!

Do Not Eat Hard Tiny Toy Chocolate

So I made this cool charm out of polymer clay…

Six hours later it’s all done. Shoooooooooooooot. This took longer than I thought. I’ll post a better blog tomorrow.

It’s bed time now.
