I found this pretty interesting.. HAVE FUN!

WHO THE HELL AM I? LOL

But seriously..

My name is Christina.

My favorite color is green.

I come from a large.. close knit family.

I love culture.. learning about other people's culture can be an experience beyond words..

I love music... anything and everything.. I'm open.

I love to cook new foods.. bake.. and EAT! :)

I am the oldest of 3 with one brother and one sister.. OH! what the heck.. two sisters.. (Nikki) :)

When I was little.. I dreamt of being a famous singer/model/dancer/actress lol.. funny how many things you think you can be, eh?

I love to try new things.. anything active.. or creative.. and I'm down.

I talk with God everyday.. I'm probably not the best example sometimes.. but He knows I try..

I truly believe He is the only reason I'm even here today.

I enjoy history. Getting a glimpse of the past is intriguing to me.

My dream car would be something older.. that ran on bio diesel... lol

One day when I'm older and have some money to play with.. I'd love to open a cafe/bakery... a nice eclectic place to gather and socialize with friends.

I like to paint.. scrapbook... take pictures.. decorate.

I want at least two kids.. hopefully a boy and a girl.. BUT I'll be happy with whatever I get since I've been told I might have some difficulties in that department.

uh.. yeah.. that's it for now.. got a headache..

But I'm sure I could think of a thousand things I like...

like... people with manners. :)

-Booger (the nickname my dad has for me ) <-- that's a new fact huh?! lol

OoOooOoo one more thing!! :)

Look @ this!... Fabulous! I WANT IT!!!!! lol

Wow.. what a crazy day

My head has basically been throbbing....
So, work started off pretty good.. not super slow.. not a ton of work to do.. Then, BAM! bloody guy comes running through the door, "I've been shot! Call 911! I've been shot!"
DOUBLE YOU TEE EFF!!!
I kick into panic mode... 'what should I do'... 'this guy needs help'... 'should I get the hell outta here before someone comes in to shoot everyone else and finish him off?!!'

Man,, was I freakin out! He stumbled through the showroom bleeding all over until we got him to sit down .. I called Janette and told her to come help ASAP! (Then she ran like bionic woman ) The whole time he kept calling for us to call his mother... [we did of course]
Once the police got there I could finally breathe... (and run to the br to pee! lol) Janette did a great job with her medic skills lol woot woot.

I'm just glad things turned out well.. and he was only shot in the HAND! lol (not to mention with his OWN gun.. )
pOOOOOr Guy..

WELP.. time for some rest.. and hopefully more training for this at work?!! lol jk

~City Market Deli~

So, The Chocolate Lady closed down shop downtown and moved to another location, BUT that didn't stop the next group from moving in for their shot at a business on Hay st.
Next up.. City Market Deli. ..
I have to say.. Blue Moon is my *favorite* place to eat downtown.. but this is going to take a close second now. The sandwiches were good... very flavorful and fresh.. nice size too.. BUT the only thing that gave me reason to mark them down a bit was $$$ .
For a sandwich... (no chips or drink) 7.50!... for a lunchbox meal (drink, chips, sandwich) 10.50!!!
YIKES,, it was 19 something for two sandwiches and a small Yoohoo bottle.. WTF?
Guess this will just have to be a once and a while thing.. and I'll have to continue my love for Blue Moon.. Here are some photos I took :)
The view from the inside.. wow... what a nice day it was :)
I fell in love with the light fixtures.. great taste ..
They were little bug lites! Ohh... and LOOK AT THE TIN CEILING?!! Awesome :)
Bzzzzzzz...
These were neat too... really modern looking ..They'd look great in a hallway.(MY hallway lol)
Small menu up on the board.. but look how pretty the shelves are..
yum!,,, MAKE MY SANDWICH!!! lol
My Pastrami on rye... mmmm nice and spicy! :)
HMMM... the desserts looked ok.. the tiramisu looked the best.. but they all looked store bought and boxed... so.. probably not super great tasting..

Overall... it was pretty good,.... BUT I def.. was a little disappointed..

The List of Ideas..

Welp, not too far back, Mike asked me to make a list of things I wanted to do... or that I enjoyed doing..(that we could do together) SOOOOO, I sat down at work on a slow day, and here is what I came up with:

The *List*

• Cook a new dinner together to try.

I hate being in the kitchen by myself... and cooking alone is one of the most boring things to do. Especially when you are always cooking and eating the same thing. So, I thought this would change things up.. give us something new to try.. and give us an opportunity to spend time together.

• Volunteer together.

I used to do a lot of volunteer work when I was younger.. and I really enjoyed it... It can be an experience that bonds you together like nothing else.... and the feeling you get from helping others is priceless. Places-- Orphanage, Homeless shelter, Habitat for Humanity, Nursing Home.... etc

• Work Out Together.

I enjoy getting out and getting physical and nothing is better than having someone to do it with. Not to mention the results you can see from the exercise. Being in good health AND looking great.. WHY WOULDN'T YOU?! lol... Go to the gym, obstacle courses, play a sport together.. run... So many things fit under here!

• Pick up a new hobby together.

Something you BOTH enjoy. This will give you both the opportunity to learn together and experience something new..... something the two of you can share and bond over... Even training for something like a race would be fun.

• Museums.

Learn about historical periods together.. this will give you something new to talk about :)

• Lay out and watch the stars.

Nothing is more peaceful then laying out at night and gazing at the stars above you... it's the perfect time to talk.. cuddle.. and dream together.

• Camp.

Camping is the perfect time to get away from everyday distractions and get in touch with your relationship... just enjoy eachother's company and explore the beauty of nature. Hike, picnic, or sit around a fire.. It's just YOU + the woods :) (((and hopefully no serial killers lol)))

• Beach.

The beach is great to get out of town and relax... pack a cooler with food and drinks.. throw on your suit.. and head out to the sand.. Just lay out together in the sun... splash in the waves to cool off... and then head off to the beach stores to check out the unique gifts or attractions.. enjoy the drive back with a beautiful sunset behind you. :) Sounds NICE.. lol

• Fishing.

Not toooo sure why I wanna do this... but i think it'd be fun.. LOTS of time to talk.. and peace of mind with just me + him + water. ..... and maybe the fact of catching the biggest fish in the world.... yeah.. that could be cool too :)

• Indoor pool.

swimming can be fun sometimes!

• Video game (that we can BOTH play)

Maybe a racing game.. arcade type game.. something we can both enjoy and do together.

• Zoo.

I enjoy walking around in the sun.. looking at all the animals you cant see out in your own yard.. and imagining myself somewhere outside of Fayetteville!!! lol

• Make pottery together.

This would be cool cause you're making something together, having fun.... AND you get a pretty piece of art you can display forever :) (that YOU made!)

• Book stores and Libraries.

These are great places to find new discussion topics.. or new ideas of things to do together.

• Babysit.

I KNOW this one is a little random, but... I think if you're looking at having a family.. it can be a great experience.. and give you a little insight on things you might not have thought of before... It's kinda like a.... 'pretend we have kids' day lol (ok.. sorry.. i feel weird now)

• Go out for dessert or coffee.

We don't necessarily have to have a big dinner.. we could eat at home... then go have a cup of coffee and share a dessert.. no better time for talking. ;0)

• Home improvements.

Why not work on projects together to build a place you wanna relax and spend time in. ... painting.. building furniture.. decorating.. who knows~!~

• Ice skating. Bowling. Biking.

This is a fun way to spend an afternoon.

OK.. TIME OUT.. HAD TO PAUSE AND TAKE A BREATH.. SOME GUY KEEPS CALLING.. AND ITS GETTING VERY #@!%#$ ANNOYING...ok... back to being romantic.. lmao.

• Botanical Gardens.

Probably real pretty to walk around at.

• Planetarium.

Get a tour of the stars and planets... def. an awesome time together.

• Aquarium.

Check out all the fish in the sea.. and learn some new things together.

• Imax.

Not just a normal old movie.. this is going BIG lol

• Flea markets.

Find random nick knacks together.. or items for a new collection.

• Dancing.

Go take a couple dance classes together.. it's a fun way to learn something useful.. and get closer :)

• Rock climbing.

Great trust gaining experience.. good workout... and it's a ton of fun!

Alright.. I'm finished for now.. BUT I'm NOT out of ideas.. Just ready to actually start putting them to use. :)
