I was driving to work the other morning and I was on the freeway.  Every morning I take this same route and before my exit is a bridge just for trains to pass over the road.  It’s a thin bridge only 1 track is on it.  Rarely do I see a train going across at that time of the morning, but it has happened.

Well that particular morning there was a man walking across that bridge.  I was kinda watching him as I inched along in traffic.  As he got about 1/4th of the way across, I see him turn his head quickly and look back.  Immediately after that, he whips his head back forward and starts running like a mad-man.

I am passing under him as this is happening and of course I continue to watch him in my rear view mirrors to see the outcome… JUST as he passes the bridge, he jumps to the side and continues running in the snow and that is when I see the train start to cross the tracks…. and it’s not moving slowly.

I had myself a little chuckle as I thought “THAT guy will never do THAT again!”

My girl friends and I have a girls night month and our guys are starting to feel alittle bit left out! So we decieded this month that we would do something alittle bit different and go on a couples weekend! I am really looking forward to this weekend away we decieded it would be fun to go to a Casino Resort for the weekend where there is going to be something for everyone to do. I am hoping that I have better luck playing Black Jack than I did a couple of weeks ago at Cantanberry (they took all our money!) I am a bit nervous just because none of the guys really know each other but I think they will all get along really well playing games over the weekend. My boyfriend can be alittle shy but there are a few bars so that should help! This is also going to be our way of celebrating valentines Day which to me will be way more fun than just going out to a fancy dinner.  Hope everyone has a fun valentines Day and that we can leave with a little extra money!!!

I will fully admit, i LOVE Adam Sandler.  Just seems like the kind of person I’d get along with famously.  So when I saw he had a new movie coming out, obviously I wanted to see it.  I know people say some of his movies are somewhat the same, but I don’t care, I love them anyway.

My husband, 8 year old son and I went to see this on Friday.  Nyk and I thought it was pretty funny and enjoyed it!  But my son, who is just a goof ball, giggled thru the whole thing.  Just belly laughed, sometimes not breathing.  He was SO loud and to top it off there weren’t very many people in the theater with us and one guy kept looking back and laughing at us. 

His laughter was infectious and everyone had a ball listening to him. 

I recommend seeing the movie if you need a good giggle and the kids in it are SO cute!!

So we all know Lindsay Lohan is a crazy girl.  I remeber when she was cute and innocent acting in Disney movies (The Parent Trap was adorable)! Well now she is so messed no one wants to work with her! She has completely screwed up her acting career! I remember hearing that Jane Fonda had to yell at her during the making of Georgia Rules. It ’s sad because I think she was a great acctress before she got so messed up, no one can take her serious as an actress now!

Anyways, why I decided to write about Miss Lindsay Lohan is because I have heard that she really wants a cameo apperance in the next Twilght movie! HAHA! Can you imagine that?!? Here you are watching this amazing movie all into the action then Lyndsay Lohan stumples in! Thank goodness the makers and directors are saying no way to that idea! That would be a great way to ruin the Twilight Saga! I can’t wait for the next movie and I’m really glad Lyndsay Lohan will not be a part of it!

For 5 years, i have been involved in Advent Vespers at Augsburg College. Advent Vespers celebrates the beginning of the Christmas season with traditional and contemporary hymns, anthems, and carols. Entertaining an audience of nearly 8,000 annually, the Augsburg College Advent Vespers celebration is one of the largest holiday music events in the Twin Cities. Held in the beautifully renovated Central Lutheran Church in downtown Minneapolis, Augsburg College’s celebration of the Advent/Christmas season combines over 300 participants; choirs, instrumentalists, readers, and a full liturgical party.  The services highlight the majesty of the space at Central Lutheran Church. Follow the drama of the processions and capture the splendor of the sounds from the massed choirs scattered throughout the sanctuary.

The concerts help get you into the Holiday spirit.  Now as a choir member it takes a lot out of you, haveing two concerts on friday, and two concerts on saturday.  You are exhausted by the end, but filled with lots of joy as people tell you how marvelous the concert was.  If you have never attended a service yet, I recommend catching on next year, you will not be disappointed.
