Freaking awesomeness
Yesterday for dinner I picked up: pizza. We put the leftovers in the fridge. Who doesn't love cold pizza leftovers for breakfast? So that's what the kids had, bright and early. Today at lunch, I was wanting something effortless, so I cooked up a Safeway self-rising crust frozen pepperoni pizza. "The best pizza we have ever, ever had," the kids shouted. After some snacking in the afternoon on cereal and clementines, which I have, in my kitchen, we met Steve at Costco this evening to return some shoes and to get dinner at the Food Court. I grabbed a table while Steve and the kids put in their order. Chicken caesar salads for the adults, and for the kids: oh, yes, he bought them pizza! So, let's review. Last night for dinner, today for breakfast, lunch and dinner: PIZZA. All with pepperoni. And now you understand the title of this post. Scheduled for tomorrow: tour of a doughnut factory with the kids and the cubs. The awesomeness continues.
After Costco, we all went to the furniture store to peruse the bed selection. Then Elliot and I went for a night on the town to the bowling alley. It brought me back to my glory days at BYU when I took a freaking awesome bowling class. There was a very cute boy named John--in fact, his name was Bowling John-- who I got to bowl with all semester and on whom I was crushing. I tried to drop hints that we should hang out, but he didn't bite. The semester ended, the summer came and went, and the next fall I was walking up the steps in the Widtsoe Building, I want to say, or maybe it was the Marb, for the first day of my Poli Sci class. Right next to me was John, walking into the same class! I eagerly struck up a conversation and walked with him into the class, sitting right next to him. I was flirting away brilliantly when John must have motioned to a friend behind us to rescue him because all of a sudden I hear the guy call out, "John! Hey buddy! That ring is looking pretty nice on your finger!" "Ring?" I ask. "Yeah, I got married this summer," he answered sheepishly/relievedly. It was pretty freaking awesome.
Also awesome: bowling alleys are good places to go if you are a smoker.
Also awesome: Man Versus Wild is now on back-to-back episodes on Survival Friday on the Discovery Channel. My husband is in heaven like you wouldn't believe.
It's so rad.

I never knew about Bowling John. Poor Em. I would have died.
Anyway, I bet your clementines are better than most because you are in the citrus heartland.
Iremember you taking that bowling class. Good times.
Emily, you are freaking awesome! Such a great writer. I love your posts.
Too bad for me, Nels doesn't like pizza. He's not a big fan of melted cheese, so no grilled cheese, no quesadillas, only mac and cheese for him. He would go for donuts for breakfast, lunch and dinner though.
Cold pizza in the morning...yum.
