Good Friday, not really...

Why is today Good Friday?

Didn't Jesus die on Good Friday? Wouldn't it be called Bad Friday instead? Just like how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop, I guess the world will never know..

Why is it a bad Friday for me? Lets see. I'm very tired. I am at work, when we have been super slow. CXS last day was today at work. Texans can't drive worth a shit on the roads. And people annoy me.

Yesterday I was the Easter Bunny. It was lot a easier than being Santa a few years ago. The kids were great for the most part. I did scare a few of them, which was not my intent. I love kids. I wouldn't scare them on purpose. Some kids actually really liked me as the Easter Bunny. One girl even said that she is now going to have the best Easter ever, mainly because of me. That made my day. I touched someone. Not physically, but Easter Bunny spiritually. Of course you have the older kids who know that I am just some dude dressed in a bunny suit. One boy, had to be about 8 or 9 and looked like Harry Potter, was giving me crap for drinking a Capri Sun Kool-Aid Jammer while I was exiting the scene with all the kids.

Dialog:
Harry Potter: Capri Sun Kool-Aid Jammer for the Easter Bunny?
Me: Yes, It is really good. (in my easter bunny voice, which kind of sucked)
Harry Potter: Yeah, sure it is....

If you could hear his tone of voice, you would know he was being a smart ass. I just said "ok" to him and walked back inside.

All in all it was pretty good. I was even rewarded today with a $25 gift certificate to a Mexican food restaurant.

Few pics:

Face paint first...which now is causing my face to break out a little.

CXS and I. She even made this her main FB picture. That meant a lot, because she hasn't changed her FB picture since I met her. I'm going to miss her at work. A lot.


The Easter Bunny walks away....


I had enough by then. Hence, the reason I went back up to my office.

I saw the Toadies Wednesday night with my friend Jenn. She has been mentioned on here before. Just not by her real name. I have my reasons....
Anyways. It was a lot of fun. The Toadies were great live as usual. We got really close too. Jenn kept getting the eyes from the guitarist Clark. She noticed it and I noticed. I'm not gay by all means, but I wish I looked like him. He is pretty handsome. We stuck around after the show and met the band. Jenn tried to work some of her magic on Clark, but her "Tour Ended There" (a little Rock of Love reference). He did sign her CD "XO" so that is pretty intimate I guess. I tried to talk with the other members, since I use to write to them and they really didn't care that much. Whatever. It was fun. Bought their new CD and it actually is pretty good. It sounds like the Toadies and that is good, right?
It was good catching up with Jenn. It had been a while. Last time we hung out, she beat me in tennis. I wasn't mad that I lost to her. I was just mad that I was up 5-0 on her ass. The momentum shift killed me. Revenge some day I suppose...

So the last few days have been hectic. I got my mom and bro in town. Gonna spend some time with them...oh and tomorrow night is ........
MORRISSEY!

That girl in the pic with you in the bunny suit is pretty. Y'all would make babies that look like Blakely... and then they could be bff's.
