Not sure what to do....I want Leathers!

So every year for my birthday, Banana Republic and Victoria's Secret gives me $15 and $10 off my next purchase coupons. I have them but my problem is I don't want to use them, but at the same time I don't want them to go to waste. I really want to save up for a pair of leathers for when I ride my motorcycle on the track next year. So what do I do? Do I want to spend the $50 or $60 dollars just to save $25. Or do I save the money for race leathers, something I have always wanted?

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

World Super Bike Racing...

So last couple of years I have a couple of weekends that I really look forward too, and this weekend is one of those weekends. It is the BIG weekend of World Super Bike races at the Miller Motorsport Park. I love this weekend!!! Granted Ben Spies won't be there...but maybe Nicky Hayden will be since his brother is racing. :) We have grandstand seating as normal. We sit in between the Bad Addittudes and Tooele Turn....which is Tooele Grandstand 2. Every year we sit in this stand cause you can see 90% of the track. It is far from everything, but it is worth it when you can see as much race as you can.

So if any of you guys are going, call me, and let me know...it would be fun to hang out since we are going to be there.

Last night....

So last night I went over to the Anderson's house to catch up with them. It feels like it has been a while since I last saw them. Ant was over earlier to help Kam with his Eagle Scout project and I was going to go over later after dinner. I went over and I ended up talking to Tim for over an hour (Tina was gone helping Kam with his work stuff). The poor guy...he sat there and listen to me about my past, how I believe that everything happens for a reason, how I have learned from my mistakes when it comes to relationships, life, and etc. He also shared with me some his stories, and I appreciate that he did. I love hearing other people stories. Hearing what they have been through and done in their lives. Just ask Ant...I know it is not none of my business but I love to hear about his past realationships with his past girlfriends. I don't know why, I just really like to hear those kind of stories.

Well after our long talk...Kensie and I looked at her yearbook and I ended up signing it. ha ha It was so funny...we were laughing about it for at least 10 mins. ha ha lol

It was a great night overall.

How many motorcycles can you ride in one day....

I had a fun weekend last weekend. On Friday night Ant and I went out to dinner and I was craving pot stickers so we went to a place called the Rooster Dumpling and Noodle bar. It was amazing! The food was so good, we will be going back for sure. Then later that night my attentions were to go to bed early, but I couldn't fall asleep till about 10.

The next morning I got up at 4:30 am cause we had to be at the dealership before 7:00 and I didn't want to be late...cause I didn't want toliet cleaning duty. LOL So we got there and I didn't have to clean toliets!! Wahoo..instead I got vaccuming duties. So after that Jeremy came up to me and said I am going to sweeper to all of the motorcycle demo rides. I WAS SO EXCITED!!! That could have been the best job ever! Every half hour we would start a new demo ride and whatever motorcycle was available I got to ride! So the whole day I spent riding motorcycles and getting paid for it! I got to ride the, Daytona (which isn't new cause you all already know that is what I own), Speed Triple, Street Triple, Thunderbird (which was a little intimdating but once I got the hang of power and torque, I had so much fun on it) Bonnieville SE, and the Scrambler. I have never rode that many miles (est. 175 miles) in one zip code before. ha ha It was so much fun riding all those different bikes. Only if everyday working at the motorcycle shop was that fun. ha ha Next Saturday...I am working for them but at the World Superbike Races. Come look for me at the BMW vendor tent.

Yesterday we just spent the day playing the Wii, and then we went to my parents and had a triple feature. It was a nice and relaxing day.

So overall it was a GREAT weekend. :)

I got tickets!!!!

Last night at Bunco a couple of the ladies that I play with said that Paul McCartney tickets are going on sale today at 10:00 a.m. ONLY if you have an AMEX card. I didn't have one, so I kept telling myself...well you don't need to go....you want race leathers instead...the point is I kept talking myself out of it. I just didn't think it was meant to be. But then at the last min I said at work..just joking...anyone who has an AMEX card that will let me use it so I can use it to buy tickets, I would appreciate it. Low and behold Maggie said here, use mine. So that was it...I was convinced that I am meant to go to this concert. So I logged on at 10 and I wanted at least $85 seats...and I GOT THEM!!! I got first row in our section too!!!! Which means...no one is sitting in front of us...at least not directly....and the seats are on the field!!! So I will get to be on the field where Real Salt Lake plays, watching Paul McCartney!!! This will be one of the most amazing things ever!!!
If you have known me for a long time, you know that this is like a dream come true for me...cause you know how much I LOVE The Beatles. It might not be the whole package but at least it is one of them. :) I AM SO EXCITTED!!!!!! This is the only time Paul McCartney has ever played to Utah too...so I am pretty sure the tickets are going to sell out fast once it is opened to the public.
WAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Cravings....

First off I want to thank Taylor Anderson and Erin Kidd for striking up some cravings that I have now. After reading both your blogs...I want peanut butter and banana sandwiches, and S'Mores. MMMMMM both sound so amazing. Thanks guys! ha ha

Yesterday on my blog I didn't go into details of my night cause, yesterday I went and picked up Anthony's Anniv. gift. I got him a big poster of the #1 photo from my photo shoot with Kay and my motorcycle. He loved that photo so much that I thought that would be a great gift....and it was! He loved it! I gave it to him last night...even though our Anniv. isn't till Saturday...we both work at the dealership that day, and don't see anytime between now and then that I could give it to him. We are both so completely busy. Speaking of busy...tonight I have Bunco at my house. :)

LUCKY! ha ha

Dark Chocolate....

Can I tell you guys how much I LOVE dark chocolate??? I love it. I have these truffles that are dark chocolate...and I have already eatin over half the box. MMMMMMMM In fact I will eat one now while I type this. :)

So another crazy day today for me..I have so many things I need to do that I am not sure where to start....and what store I want to start at. Lucky for me last night I went to bed at 9:30 then woke up around 6:50..which is about 30 mins earlier than I normally get up....so I decided that I would start a batch of laundry this morning. Which is one less thing I have to worry about tonight. :) Although I have all this stuff I need to do, I am very excited to have Bunco at my house tomorrow night. :) mmmmmmm dark chocolate. LOL

Sorry I have been away....

Last week at my work we got hit with a HUGE virus and they didn't want us to log onto anything personal. So I couldn't really get on to my blog. Hopefully starting today I am back and will be able to post something everyday Mon-Friday. :)

The next couple of weeks are going to be crazy busy for me. Tonight I have to go to the store, buy food for Bunco, laundry, and head to my parents around 6:30 for cake and ice cream. We will be finishing the BEST chocolate cake that I have ever made. Something about this cake this time made it super good.

Anywho....I have got to go....I hope everyone had a great weekend.

Birthdays

It is very interesting to me how people do different things on their birthdays. For example....
This girl at my work...well when it is her birthday she will not shut up about it. She loves to tell everyone about it. Not just once but dozen of times...I think she is afraid that we are going to forget after the 5th time.

Then I have a friend that everytime when it is almost time for her birthday, she gets super angry and mad...it is like she doesn't want to be reminded of her birthday.

Then there is me...most of the time if I ever get a birthday party it is cause I planned it for myself...and let's be honest planning your own birthday party really sucks!!! So this year I am not planning a birthday party...so I am not having one. Anthony did send some texts out to some of our friends to see if they wanted to go for a motorcycle ride on Sunday (if you want to go let me know)...and I think that is about as good as it is going get this year. I am not to worried about it...I just want to have a mellow day and enjoy time with my hubby. I would include my parents in that last sentence but even they are not going to be home for it.

I hope you read this and don't think this is suppose to be a pitty party for me cause it is not...I just trying to say that this year it is going to be chill, and that is ok. :) Although I am thinking of making a chocolate cake for Sunday so if anyone would like to come over and have some...you are more than welcome too. I am sure we will be home from the ride around 4, so come around 5.

Off to Indianapolis....

Today I leave for Indianapolis till very late Thursday night. I will be going to a convention for my work and so my days will be long...but hopefully full of good information that I can use and apply to my job. I am looking forward to my flight out there....it will be the first time I have EVER flew First Class!! It will be different but very nice since it is over a 4 hour flight. :)

I just wanted to take the this time and tell my hubby how much I love and appreciate everything he does for me and us. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me, and I love him more and more everyday for that....and if he happens to clean while I am gone (hint hint) that would be awesome! lol I love you Ant. :)
