My New Job!

So as many of you know, I have quit the horrible life of a saleswoman at Digis and have moved on to bigger and better things. Job interview after job interview went by and I broke many companies hearts by denying them my services. I could only work for the best and they just didn't have what it took. Days, weeks, weeks and a half went by, and still no luck....

Then, it happened. I got the phone call. "Melissa, would you please come in and interview with us here at _________".

"Hellllllzzzzzzz yah," I replied.

So I interviewed, they loved me, I loved them, we laughed, we cried, we toasted to good life and great weather.

I started right away and I have found much joy in my new found career.

My job title: PROFESSIONAL TANNING BED OPERATOR EXTRAORDINAIRE
Yes thats right people, I hold the power of the sun.

So come on in and achieve your dream. Thelma comes in everyday, and I am proud to say that I am apart of this beautiful process.

Are you ready for some FOOTBALL

It's that time of year again where football enslaves me. Every day I have to check the status of all my players and see how their practice went, if any of them are injured and see if any of them gave me a shout out in one of their press conferences.

You see, I have an alternative, no let's call it a "backup religion" that I am faithful to for about 7 months that is called, "The Second Holy Order of the Pigskin Euphoria," or more modernly referred to as Fantasy Football.

For years Tiki "Torch" Barber and "The Bulge," Marc Bulger, carried me away to fantasy football bliss. Where touchdown dances and screams of delight were often heard echoing from the chambers of my heart (as well as the chambers of my apartment complexes.)

The "torch" has since retired and is doing the today show or some crap like that, and the bulge got hurt pretty bad last year so they are will no longer be hoisting me up to heavenly heights, instead I will now fly on the wings of "Flyin" Brian Westbrook and the terrific tandem of Derek "I ain't nobody's Ho" Anderson and Braylon "You know what I'm sayin'" Edwards.

This team could be the next fantasy football hall of fame team for the books (I keep little books in my office). There will likely be more said on this matter forthwith, but for now I must go and practice my "Happy Dances" that will make the earth shake and the cherubs cheer!

Boston and the Be-yach

Brett and I just got back from Boston. We stayed at a beach house in Salisbury. My grandparents rented one out for a whole week for all of the family (thanks NANA and BUBA!). It was a great trip and Brett and I did a lot of fun things.

Boogie Boarding was a Blast

BLUE MAN GROUP!!! The show was so fun. We got half off tickets because my aunts neighbor is in the show. Boston is the Blue Man Groups home town.

Bretty-poo Drinking Orange Crush...we drank a lot of orange crush!!

Working...I mean WALKING the Streets

and enjoying the awesome architecture!!!

It was a great vacation to the East Coast and we look forward to traveling to more of our beautiful country.

Happy Birthday America

So this is kind of a late post...but, I went to the balloon fest on July 3rd and snapped some cool photos. Voila...

Stay tuned for tales of Boston...

Segways

So we rode some segways....and it was fun. Behold our photos...

...Just like George "Gob" Bluth!

Weight Loss Challenge

So, recently Brett's work had a "Biggest Loser" Competition. Brett ended up losing 45 pounds in three months!!! His before and after shots tell it all...

The snake Samuel found in our tent

and finally, the chipmunk that fired acorns out of a mini bazooka all...night...long.

Magnum PI, or Child Pornographer?

So, we had this contest at work called, "Are You Magnum Enough?" The point of the contest was to get people to dress up like Magnum P.I., but really it was just an excuse to sport a mustache and Hawaiian shirt.

Some people actually pulled it off and looked just like him. Others....well, they kind of resembled "Chester the Molester." I happened to fall in that category. This was evident to me when I drove home from work. Like normal, I stopped to pick up the mail from our mailbox, which happens to be located right next to the pool. Well....let's just say when I got my mail, kind of hung out by the mailboxes and bit my lower lip, it creeped out a lot of people.
