fast eddie

i met a man yesterday who calls himself "fast eddie." like seriously, he introduces himself that way and even has that on his business cards. how does that start? how does one insert an adjective in front on their name and get everyone else to call them that, too? maybe i can start going by "bad ass marlou." the funnier thing is, i talked to a guy that i work with that i guess knows fast eddie, and he told me that his real first name is gayle.... hmmm... gayle? no wonder he goes by fast eddie.

andy's friend, sean, is back from the war. he's our own war hero. we met him and his friends down at hooters last night for almost 3 hours. i'm glad he got back safe. oh, and there was a pregnant lady working at hooters. she had the whole "hooter girl" get-up and everything. she wasn't sportin the tank top, but she had the booty shorts on and everything. but she was pregnant. can you imagine telling your child that when s/he was in your womb, you were strutting it at hooters? a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do, i guess.

i need to get to sleep. we're leaving for vegas this morning. me and andy have to get up early to pick up our rental car. i spent all night cleaning and getting ready and getting food ready, and packing. i'm so tired. BUT, i did get to pick up my ring today. it is SOOOOOOO fun. i was a little nervous that once i saw it finished i wasn't gonna want it (cause i'm so like that all the time), but once i put it on my finger, i got goose bumps. i love it. and like she says in sleepless in seattle "i wouldn't have picked any other ring if i got to choose out of all the rings in the world." oh, wait a sec, i did get to choose my ring out of all the rings in the world... lol...hahahaha. oh, and if you've ever seen election and that part when reese witherspoon finds out she won the election (secretly) and she starts spazzing out and jumping around... that's totally how i felt when i put my ring on. i only hope every other girl feels that way when she put her engagement ring on, too.
