VK’s Withdrawals

I’ve been kindly reminded by a friend that she is having “VK’s” blog withdrawals. I know it’s been a while. Honestly, nothing has happened lately that has been blog worthy. I always look for those hilarious, intriguing or spiritual situations to blog about and I’ll say “I have to blog about this.” But nothing of the sort has happened lately. I’m working on an “If I Only Had a Blog”. It involves a lot of pictures and going back and forth between the folder the pics are in, facebook, and the blog. I’ve been working on it since last Tuesday, not because it is a huge project or anything, it just has to be done in small steps due to my lack of time. If you went to Las Higuerillas in 2006 with TETM, you definitely don’t want to miss this one. But I think everyone will enjoy it, at least I hope so 🙂 Oh wait…I just remembered I do have something!!! And if you are my friend on Facebook, this is very old news. Brent got Wii Fit for his birthday (the 27th of this month) and my Wii age is…drum roll…48! 24 years older than my actual age. 2 years older than my mom! Apparently I can not balance very well and I carry more of my weight on the right side than on the left. Somehow that has everything to do with my Wii age. Who knew? It asked me if I find myself tripping frequently when I walk. No, actually, I think I walk pretty well. So my “personal trainer” on the Wii is going to help me learn to balance. Thank you my dear Wii for helping me become Wii younger! And I just remembered something else. (I guess I do have something to blog about). I will never eat sushi again. I went to my cousin’s 13th birthday party at Sumo in Hoover on Friday night. Uncle LaDaryl ordered some sushi (who knew that a redneck could like something so sophisticated as sushi) and gave Ben and me some to try. Of course, that is after he dipped it in wasabi and soy sauce. Wasabi was the least of my problems. It could have been doused in wasabi and it still wouldn’t have been a problem. He said it had avocado and cream cheese in it. I thought it couldn’t be that bad…foods I eat frequently…rice, cream cheese, avocado wrapped in seaweed and a little raw salmon. AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL! Oh my gosh, did I mention it was awful? Ya know how you sometimes say something was so bad you want to throw up, but it’s really not that bad, you are just exaggerating to get your point across? There is no exaggerating when I say that I almost threw up when I put that thing in my mouth. My gag reflexes were FREAKING OUT! I had to concentrate hard to chew and swallow. It was not an easy thing to do. I got it down, after a few horrible expressions on my face, and managed to get through my dinner. I’m sure I offended the chef. I really thought it had ruined my appetite, but I downed some water REAL fast and got that horrid taste out of my mouth. NEVER AGAIN!
