Shopping, Shopping and More Shopping

Today Harry and I went out and bought a ton of stuff for our wedding. We only have a few free weekends left. And since we are doing everything ourselves there is so much to do. Today we got plates, forks, spoons, knives, napkins, salt, pepper and containers and a bunch of beer. We looked for alochol but didn't buy any. So much to do still.

Wedding Cake

Finding a wedding cake has been alot harder then I thought it would be. I had someone lined up who could make what I was asking but he couldn't do it on the day we needed it. I knew of one other cake maker that could do it but she lives up on San Francisco but my best man Christopher was visiting family up there and this person was one of his good friends so I asked him to ask her if it was possible for her to make it and just ship it down here of something. I didn't think anything would come of it but tonight while I was at my 2nd job I got a call from a friend’s friend. Her name is Tina and I met her a few years ago while she was done here.. one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet. Well she said that she heard I was getting married and needed a cake. I could not believe what I was hearing. She heard what I wanted and was so excited and wanted to make it so we started to make plans. What is great is that she and her husband (who's taking days off work) are coming down here for the weekend to make us our wedding cake. I was in shock when she told me this.. this was been a huge stress in my life and it was as if someone took a huge weight off my chest.

We talked about the details (keep it a secret for guests) on what Harry and I wanted and worked out the details and costs.

This cake is going to rock and be everything that Harry and I want it to be. Thank you Christopher for helping me get Tina to make our dream wedding cake.

Kenny's Appreciation Day

Today when I got back from work I noticed that there was birthday wrapping paper covering my office door. When I opened my door my office decorated with various goodies and there was a Happy Birthday banner strung on the wall but the "birth" part was blocked by a sign that said Kenny's Appreciation.. so the sign read Happy Kenny's Appreciation Day. There was also a present on my seat, it was a Internet urinal, it's a bottle that you can pee in and it has an adaptor for women... it's way too funny.

Come to find out that several of my co-workers who know I've been a bit stressed out with this job decided to make this Kenny's Appreciation Day. I was very touched and it just shows you how great some of my co-workers are. So for the rest of the day it was Kenny's Appreciation Day :)

Harry the Assisant Editor

Today after a long day at work I had to go to my other job and try and clean up a huge mess. When we got there they needed alot of help and was looking for an AE at the last minute. I volunteered Harry who happens to be with me. Harry knows the avid and would make a great AE. So we spent the next eight hours working on cleaning up this mess of a show. It was fun working with Harry and it was cool that this was Harry's first official job as an AE. I was exhausted after a 20-hour workday but it was cool that Harry got to work as an AE.

Hancock

Today Harry and I went down to visit my Dad, we took him out to lunch and to a movie. We saw the new Will Smith movie Hancock. We all enjoyed it, it's not your typical superhero movie. The people of LA hated this superhero because he would cause major property damage while saving people. He saves a guy named Ray who is a PR person and wants to clean up Hancock’s image. He also met Ray's wife and you know something is up. Come to find out that Hancock and Ray’s wife Mary our soul mates and have been alive for over 3000 years. Even though they are drawn to each other when the do get together they start to become mortal and can age and die. These two are the last of their kind.

I really liked the story idea... there was no huge battle at the end of this film. It's a very unusual love story with alot of funny moments and some awesome action scenes. I do wish they went into more detail about them being "immortal". But you can't have everything. All in all this was a very cool and unique superhero movie.
