"great day"

So Kambria called me Saturday morning to see what I was up too. We decided to do something fun. Maybe lunch and a movie? We still hadn't decided when I picked her up. She had mentioned Olive Garden in Salem or Eugene or maybe Valley River Center. So I pull up to get her. I see John Boy out front and as soon as he sees me he quickly retreats to the house. Should I be offended by that? Whatever...
So as soon as she get in the car, (before I could say a thing), she said "how about the Roadhouse Grill in Salem". Psyhic. I was going to say the exact same thing. Weird, but we do that all the time. In our friendship, the destination isn't alway the big prize.
It's all about the car ride. :)
The things we have discussed, and learned in the car are the best part. So we reminisced about Betty and Scooby. We decided we are OVER IT.
We saw a tow truck and emergency vehicles on the freeway and were very releived not to see the jaws of life. Looked pretty mild.
We were at the exit at Lancaster about 5 cars back from the light. There was a bum/hobo on the corner (not unusual for that corner). There was a van two cars in front of us that was handing the homeless man some change. I don't know if it's because the light changed green or what but as the man was trying to walk to the van (he wasn't very stable on his feet) the driver THREW a handful of change at him and sped off. Our mouths were gaping open. It was the most humiliating, degrating thing I think I have every witnessed. I don't condone begging on the corner for money, but he is still a human being. He was so shocked and stunned he couldn't even bend over to pick up the money. We felt so sad for him.






So we procede to the Roadhouse Grill. We had the best salad EVER. The honey rolls were pretty orgasmic too. (ha ha kam, more to that story, but it is too inappropriate to put on my blog. Kathy reads this ya know. Hi Kathy!!!!!) :)
So we decided (why I am not sure) to split dessert. We were miserable after and paid the price. But it was a HUGE hot fudge, brownie sundae with carmel. Two spoons please. Delicious, decadant, fattening!! Whatever, move on.

So after our pig out, we decided to go see a movie. The Benjiman Button one with Brad Pitt. So we go to the theater at Lancaster Mall and were going to pre-buy our tickets and then kill some time before the movie. The stupid movie wasn't at that theater. ha ha. Whatever. Move on.
So we walked thru Lancaster without any shootings (scary mall) and decided to head down to Nordstrom Mall. We ditched the movie idea. We were too lathargic to sit in a dark theater and come down off of our sugar high. We would have crashed and burned.
So we wandered thru the mall. Went to Nordies to look at shoes, makeup, jewelry, etc. Kam wanted to get some Philosophy products for her sons girlfriend for Valentines day. I was wandering in shoe-land and she came back over to me PISSED OFF.
It was a total "pretty woman" moment.
She said those UGG-ly (pun, figure it out :) sales people wouldn't give her the time of day. Granted we were bothed dressed in fleece pullovers and jeans, tennies. We were presentable, but not dressed to the nines. They looked at us like we were the hobos. I wanted to go back over there and tell them that we didn't have time anyways because our private jet was up on the heli pad waiting to take us back to our palace. Bitches. Whatever, move on.


So now we are seeing what everyone else is wearing when they go shopping. To be honest, I really don't notice too much unless its extreme. Well, we saw it. A woman in her mid-forties dressed kind of like this. Would they have treated us better if we had a sweater on as a dress and hideous tights? By now we are kind of over it. Tired.
Overall we had a GREAT day. The sun was shining and the birds were chirping. (in a good way).
Had an enjoyable day with my best friend!


For my closing statement. We saw written on someones window with white writing "Bung Hole". ha ha hahahahhaha a a hahhahahah a ahahahaaa hahahhahahah
