Livin it One Day at A Time

Or, as us upper crust types like to call it, “Targe” when I saw it.

Hawaiian shirts.

Hello, did I miss these beauties coming back into style?

If there is something to be known about me, it’s that I started wearing Hawaiian shirts, and only after severe female mockage, did I stop wearing said shirts.

Three years later.

It’s happened.

In a sense, I knew it was going to happen.

I’ve been proposed to via the Internet.

I never knew that I could grab the attention of so many women, with one side comment about Kitchen Toys.

So I headed over to Sam’s Club to look at various food preparation tools.

As I was perusing the isles, I found that I’m at a loss to knowing what else to grab, that will attract the Ladies. So, I’m throwing it open to all the Women who read these words. From what I can tell, you are all Smart, intelligent, and most importantly bright. Oh, and funny/sassy/feisty/determined and cute. ( I am still up in the air about those who wear glasses because, you know Us men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses)

So, here I stand. Teach me what I need to know.

Should I let ya’ll know that I’m an in the closet Cook? I secretly visit Williams-Sonoma to oogle over cookware, I have copy of their catalog at home to see what I want to buy? I read Simply Recipes (made myself some Chorizo and Eggs last night.) and Cooking for Engineers and watch the CfE Deals Blog for Amazon.com deals on Kitchen stuff?? That I copy a lot of recipes from Alton Brown?

Or should I let the Internets know that I secretly want to be a pastry Chef like this guy (who I watch on Food Network) and specialize in Chocolates? That I’ve been slowly building my collection so that I can make my own Chocolates? (The chocolate temperer should be the next purchase) That I can think of few things cooler than making Chocolate ART?

I don’t know if the Internet is ready for this much information about me, so I may need to keep this on the down low.

Down LOW.

So what else do I need to get, A Griddle? A toaster Oven? A Blender? A Waffle Maker? What do I need to do, to get those Ladies?

Oh, and I had my entire travelmony written out, with the photos last night, and my browser crashed.

I almost snapped.

This -> <- close.

I know.

I’ve said it.

I’m a geek. But I geek out in so many cases.

I might as well have been in Vegas, wearing a bright Hawaiian shirt, Khaki shorts, black socks and sandals.

Oh, wait, I was. Did I mention I had a camera as well?

So, I get into town. I grab me some In-N-Out

Oh, look at that greasy burger goodness. Whenever I got this close to the old mission, I have to indulge.

The convention is *right* next to the Hilton (where I was sure my old High School friend was.) I get back to my truck, and the porn peddlers had already been there.

I head over to my digs. I got the high class digs. Across from the Porn, across from the condemned buildings, and most importantly, across from the Hard Rock Hotel/Casino

Next day, it was off to training. I know you can’t see it here in this photo, but there were a lot of pasty, white legs. Oh, and I took this photo of my leg.

On.. Purpose.. My leg is actually very photogenic…

There were free backpacks given out, and you’ll notice a pattern. Geeks love free stuff.

Later that night, was the welcome party! Meaning, free toys, free t-shirts, and most importantly, FREE BEER!

I watched people guzzle, and guzzle, and guzzle.

Did I mention they were guzzling?

But who am I to complain, I got free SUSHI (I love me some Sushi). Much free food was handed out, and many a pasty white leg were endured.
