Thursday Thirteen.


13 Things Blondie Is Looking Forward To.
In Alphabetical Order - Because She Likes Order.
{don't you judge her.}

  1. A trip to Alaska with the kid in six weeks. His first. My second. We get to meet Rudy's Son on this trip. Cool!
  2. Dinner with Rudy and the Creature in September. I asked the Creature today for dinner recommendations. He supplied me with quite a list. Now I have choices to consider. Not sure if this is a good thing.
  3. Drinking. Cuz I am not really lately.
  4. Marrying Rudy. *sigh* I love Rudy. He's my hero.
  5. My Roma's ripening. Last count there were 5. Finally.
  6. My next cup of coffee. Starbucks would be nice. Cinnamon Dolce Latte. mmmmm. I can even smell it now. Maybe I will go get one after the grocery tomorrow. {If I am lucky I will see the cop who gave me the effing fix it ticket last week. Course, that will only be if they still have sprinkle donuts. *rolling eyes*}
  7. Reaching my goal weight. Go Team WiiFit!
  8. Rudy finding a job in SoCal. {He is working on his resume as I type this. And applying for a job nearby on Friday. All good thoughts and prayers are gratefully accepted and appreciated}
  9. September 25, 2010. Although I am a bit nervous about being the main photographer. I hope I don't disappoint. :-/
  10. Staying at The Pemaquid. And not making too much noise and bothering the other guests. {That's what she said}
  11. Tastycakes. Butterscotch Krimpets to be exact. I told Rudy I am bringing an empty suitcase and filling it with Tastycakes. I am seriously serious about this.
  12. The little tiny airplane. NOT! It's really tiny, you guys. It freaks me out a bit. Good thing they sell booze on it. And this time the kid will be with me.
  13. Traveling with Rudy. By plane. Again with the little tiny airplane. GAH! But we have never traveled by plane together so it should be fun. Or something. I will have to get back to you on that one.

Purple Preseason Power.


While I was on vacay North to Alaska Rudy treated myself and our good friend Karoline to mani/pedi's. I showed my appreciation by asking Rudy to choose a purple for my toe colour. He chose Purple with a Purpose. After mani/pedi's the two of them introduced me to my first taste of Indian Food. Oh dear lord it was SO yummy. But I digress. Purple is Rudy's colour. His Minnesota Vikings Football colour. He most definitely approved of my colour choice.



Cut to my return to America {those silly Alaskans think they live in another land}. I had a ding in the polish on one of my toes. I went on a search for a purple to do a touch-up. I found one that matched almost perfectly. I also found a lovely yellow which is the other Vikings Colour. I was being quite silly and painted the nails on my left hand alternating yellow and purple. I told him I had done so to help out his team. It must have worked cuz Vikings won. Rudy commented to me after the win that I now know what I must do. I suggested that perhaps there was not enough data available to suggest that I should always paint my nails in that manner to help his team get the win.



The following week I removed the polish from my nails but left the purple on my toes. Again the Vikings won. Perhaps there was no magic in my purple and yellow fingernails but rather my solid purple toenails. I would soon be given the perfect opportunity to test my hypothesis.

Rudy's Vikings played my Cowboys tonight in a preseason game and my toes are still purple.

My Cowboys started out with an early touchdown but by halftime the score was 7 {Cowboys} to 21 {Vikings}. I immediately went to work removing the glorious purple with a purpose from my toes. I had to give my 'boys every chance possible to pull off a win. {sorry honey but they are my 'boys. ;-) }
My Cowboy's scored 28 points in the 2nd half to the Vikings 10 which gave my 'boys a 35 - 31 win. Purple truly does have a purpose. Purple toes help the Vikings win games in preseason. I had to find out, darlin. Sorry I had to sacrifice your team's win in order to prove my hypothesis. When your team isn't playing mine I will be more than happy to paint my toes purple. Anything to make my man happy. :-)

p.s. Cowboys won! Football is here! squeeeeee!{<--- that is blondie squealing in delight} Sun Devils have their opening game 9.5.09 @ 7pm. Fork 'em, Devils. {Did ya miss my insanity and enthusiasm for Football??? ;-) }
