I'm a horrible blogger

I'm a terrible/horrible blogger and should no longer be allowed to take up your time. Honestly, I apologize profusely for being so...lazy...and not writing more frequently. To give you all an excuse update:

My mother, nephew (20 month old), and nephew-baby-daddy have come to live with Boi and me for a little while. This has been interesting. So we've been adjusting and such...oh and I no longer work for the superstore. I did all the recon work needed for the apocalypse so I figured, why continue wasting my time and theirs?

Also, Boi and I went to Myrtle Beach SC for our annual St Patty's Day weekend (Boi and I have been going for 10 years now). It was, as always, fantastic. Here is a picture of my awesome mother-in-law and myself at the parade/street shops:

We had so much fun. This year The Tribe all got together for it (first time). AmAzInG!

After the parade/shopping, The Tribe decided to go out for dinner. There was a little place next to our hotel named Umberto's. I'm a little fuzzy on how we picked there to eat, but I'd be willing to bet money it was because it was right next door.

Anyways, we popped in there and after we got to looking at the menu, we realized (all at right about the same time) that this was a much nicer restaurant than we expected.

While scrutinizing said menu, I came across something that made me extremely excited:

Menu and me

DO YOU SEE IT!? DO YOU SEE IT!?

I decided to use this really large font to try to convey my excitement level to you. I was so ecstatic! I've never actually seen haddock on a menu before.

And here is the haddock. No I didn't order it; Boi did.

Also, I've gotten a new camera, and I'm taking a ridiculous amount of pictures lately so when you start to see more pictures on here, please forgive my enthusiasm.  Although, looking back through this post, none of the above pictures were taken with my camera. So all pictures in this post from here up were taken by Tribal Elder Tiffany: just makin sure I give credit where it's due ;)

I've also gotten really slack in drawing lately. Forgive me. I'm only human...and a bad lazy one at that. Speaking of which, my latest song obsession is 'The Lazy Song' by Bruno Mars. I've been listening to it for the last month and the other day I heard it on the radio. I starting punching Boi's leg in my excitement. He's so tolerant.

Okay, last thing for now. Boi and I have declared a Nerf War for the 3rd annual Tribe Beach Trip this summer...and we are serious.

Please note in my picture that Sid is lurking, terrified in the background.

Teeeeeny side note: I know the date looks like April 2 but I've fixed my camera now. See? We're learning as we go....

We've warned the other Tribal Elders and I can not wait for the beach. This is gonna be epic. Since the pictures were taken, we've 'decorated' our guns and purchased more. In the words of Barney from How I Met Your Mother:

It's gonna be LEGEN.....wait for it....DARY.

And on that note people, I bid you farewell for now.

Dark Showers

Yesterday I discovered my new favorite game. I've dubbed it "Dark Showers".

To play, you must have a bathroom that is completely dark. If your bathroom has windows, you can purchase blackout curtains.

It's most fun when played with others but can be a one person game as well. Here is how to play:

Step 1
Turn on shower and get it to a comfortable temperature.

Step Two
Memorize as best you can where everything in your shower is.

Step Three
Turn off the light, close any curtains, shut any doors, whatever you need to do to make the room pitch black dark.

Step Four
Take the most epic shower(s) ever. Be creative in this part but just be sure that you wash everything. No cheating.

It's far more fun with someone else in the shower with you. An awesome twist is to wash each other.

Unless you are really Really REALLY stupid brave, I would advise you to not try to shave each other. Bad idea.

Step Five
Turn off the shower and dry off in the dark. If you have plenty of time and are feeling even more adventurous, try to get dressed and ready also in the dark.

When you are finished playing the game simply turn on the light for game over. Epic right!?


Tonight I went to eat out at CiCi's Pizza which always brings back so many middle school memories for me. There was one right across the road from my middle school that I went to all the time.
In it's little arcade, there were always a few of those $0.25 cent machines that hold gum or silly cheap toys in them. One of the toys I remember most fondly in those machines was a miniature glow stick. I used to get one every time I went. It scared my mom to death, and she was always terrified that I was gonna choke to death on one. I sure loved those things...and I have never found them anywhere else since then.
So anyways, back to tonight. Guess what was in one of the toy machines tonight. Yuppers, those little mini glow sticks. Now they cost $.50.
I got some change from Boi and slowly turned the knob, savoring the experience. Ahhhhh, lo and behold, I was rewarded with not one, not two, not three, but FOUR epic mini glow sticks!!!!!!!!!! *Mini little happy dance*
I've brought them home to add to my new Dark Showers game. I'm not going to put that part in the steps; mainly because you might not be able to find them but also....well, you use your imaginations ;-)

I tried taking some pictures of the nifty little creatures for you but they're so small and I'm too lazy to work harder with my camera to make it focus tonight...so here are the best two pictures I got:
