Druthers

Today I did my first assignment for my new job. I think I'm going to be learning something new everyday. My old typing job was quite boring. There's just not that much happening in the land of personal insurance claims. Some of the stories were out there, but the majority were just boring. Gone are those days. My first assignment was a conference call between Korn and about 15 interviewers. They talked about Korn's new album and the Family Values tour. It's all stuff that will be written in different publications and it was so neat. Perhaps if I work really hard there will be a divine blessing sent from above the next time Sarah releases an album. My fingers are already crossed.

The new thing I learned today is that 'druthers' is an actual word. You can find it at dictionary.com. It means to have a choice or preference. I had no idea. I thought it was just some lady's slang. Neat-O.

I am really looking forward to this weekend because our friends Derek and Kelly are getting hitched. It's going to be a great wedding. I bought a new dress, a new bra even! We rented a car for the day and I'm getting my hair and make-up professionally done. Nick got a new outfit in a brand new color.

(Is anyone else's husband stuck in the same color all the time!
Honey let's go buy a new shirt.
Sounds good darling, I sure do need a new blue shirt.
A new blue shirt but you have a blue golf shirt, and a blue dress shirt. Well several in fact in different shades.
And then you come home with a blue dress shirt somehow.....)

It's this cool green color and he looks hawt. It will be a ravishing night, because I had my druthers and I ran with them.

Hey Amanda,could we see a pic of you two all dressed up. I am dying to see Nick in green. For such a long time his favourite colour was orange!!! He even had orange hair.

By the way. What is wrong with BLUE??? He will tell you that is my favourite colour. lol

I hope you have a great evening out.

yay for learning stuff with work.
Yes. Blue is a good colour. We, also, need to move away from it a little bit.
