The Wallet Chronicles

There once was a girl who had a wallet.  After a shift on a Saturday night she decided, "I'm going home."  She clocked out, grabbed her cell phone out of the drawer where she most certainly didn't use it to text throughout her shift :) and grabbed her black and white hounds tooth jacket that she found in the lost and found.  (Hey...it had been there for at least a month!)  She goes to grab for her purse that was where it usually was...waaait...it isn't there....she goes downstairs to check the other area where sometimes employees put their things. Wait a sec...dig, dig, dig...nope.  Humm...mean trick by the kitchen guys? Nope...

Can you guess who it is??

YUP! ME!

Wait, that isn't exciting.  Redo.

Yup. me...

Police report filed. Credit cards canceled.  Checking account canceled.  Lost are the gift cards and the FREE BREAKFAST AND SANDWICH from the frequent guest cards.  I would say those are priceless, but they're probably about $18 and a major source of pride.

Anyway, the two genius girls that did this decided to meet a bum outside of a bar just down the street from my place of work.  They lured him to his government housing with the promise of beer and pizza.  They got pizza, a bottle of vodka and some beer delivered to his "apartment."  They faked a stomach ache and left.  Homie didn't  even get to partake in the food and booze!  After they left, they went to a gas station and spent $43.36.  You can't fill a gas tank with $43.36! Also, what geniuses steal a wallet and use it at a gas station?! FULL OF CAMERAS!  Stupid of them = Good for me.

So the cops are getting the surveillance footage and handing it over to detectives since it is a felony.  I will keep everyone updated.

Also, some of the best responses are from my parents.  Dad's response about the $77 they spent at the Deli and Liquor delivery place.  He was more upset that they "obviously don't know you can't get a decent bottle of wine for $77."  Yeah, dad.  Obvi.  He is also more upset that they didn't take my iPhone, since he is a die hard Blackberry/Android/anything-not-Apple-user.  He also offered the use of a backhoe.  Where are you going to get a backhoe in Claremont, dad?

Mom asked all the normal questions.  Then finally...::GAAAASSSP!::: "WAAAAIT! Those little bitches stole our matching wallet?!"  Yes, mom.

Sooo, what do Thelma and Louise look like?  One is brunette and one has sandy colored hair.  So keep your eyes open, Ameeerica.  

In the mean time, if you see an awesome wallet lemme know.  I have to buy 2, so mom and I can have matching ones again.

Until next time,

Trend setter is certainly not the phrase you would associate with myself BUT I would just like to show you a small little website titled "Morgan and Alex are getting MARRIED" a.k.a. Our wedding website with all the boring info.

This little page was set up probably around the 1st of the year.  Please take note of the song that is playing.

Now, let me direct you to a little ol' company called JCPenney.  This is their new April commerical.

April Broadcast Spot

Coincidence? I. think. not.

2011 part 1

Remember those billions zillion things I promised I did, but never uploaded pictures and/or talked about them? Well I DID do them, even if you think I was a liar face and was just at home playing solitaire against the cat.  I have picture proof and finally a break down of stuff-I-said-I-did-and-finally-sucked-it-up-and-did-a-lame-post. (Why all the -'s...I don't know. Don't judge.)

Enjoy.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

So a long, long time ago in a land called Golden, Alex and I did the Coors Brewery Tour.  It wasn't super exciting.  I actually would not recommend it. 

A lot of it looked like this.

They are not hiring.  I asked.

We were still learning the camera.  That is a Morgan outline.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Then one craaaaaazy day we decided to see what this Cheyenne, Wyoming business was all about.  It was definitely a small town.  We got a good walk on around the city.  I've never been to Lincoln, Kansas but this is what I imagine it to look like.

He was cute.

I love an old school movie theater!

These boots were all over town.  I also realized it said, "Do not touch" after the picture was taken.  I live on the edge.

Oh yes! The Cheyenne train station museum. Talk. About. A. Party.

Like I said... a party.

The Capitol of Wyoming!

I'm there too!

Why smile when you can pose like the statue?

Aaaaaaaand we're back!

I don't know why my arms have to be up in every picture.

The Wyoming sign on the other side of the freeway that I wanted to take a picture with but we zoomed by too fast.  This is the same thing, right?

 

The ride home.

Holy moly, I only got through the Coors Tour and Cheyenne.  Talk about random.  Plus, who wants to see eight months of pictures in one post?? That is no fun.  Part 2...tomorrow? (let's be honest..probably not)

The "Protest" Is Over!

Now I would like to say that my absence from the bloggisphere was merely a giant protest on PIPA and SOPA, but in reality is was my computer's protest against me saying that it is older than the Pope and wants to die.  What do I tell the computer that freaks out? Nothing. I let said computer rest for ... a month and a half then shove it in the face of the poor computer geeks at CU who thought it would be a 2 minute fix when in actuality it was over 2 hours of working on it.

Sooooooo what has been the haps around the Punchy? Lots. I've got pictures too, I think.  They won't be uploaded right now, because I'm going to let computer take a night time nap because I think he is starting to get sassy again.  The video of Neil Armstrong walking on the moon was clearer and more audible than what is coming out of dear ol' Dell at the moment.

Until tomorrow! (Hopefully)

Dear Oliver,

Don't piss me off.  I will do it.
Love,
Your mom

The necklace totally makes the outfit.

Hello Kitty!

Heeeereee's Johnny!

A few weeks (months? whatever.) back some friends came into town for the Great American Beer Fest.  We had a day or so before the fest-business, so we took a day trip up to Estes Park.  Three of the five of us went last year around the same time, but we decided to stop at the Stanley Hotel this time.  It was awesome.  Some aspects of it reminded me of the Hotel Del Coronado.  I really want to go back and go on the ghost tour! (I'm slightly obsessed with Ghost Hunters and they totally did an episode there.)  Oh yeah, and I still need to see The Shining. Yeah, yeah. I know it's a classic. 

The front. Duh.

View from the front steps.

If there is a firetruck, I will make him take a picture in front of it.

Dude was hand polishing the lobby floor.

Alex's beer was pretty cool. REDRUM!

Downtown Estes Park

No crap.  Would have been nice to know this last year.

Fire, Fire, House on Fire!

My friend/co-worker went home last night after a long shift to see that her house was on fire.  She said the Red Cross is helping her, her little girl, and her boyfriend out and putting them up in a hotel.  She had just moved in about two weeks ago, so I think she had probably just finished unpacking all the boxes and getting things all organized. 

 The house is destroyed, no one was hurt and they haven't determined the cause yet.  Here is a link to the story: http://www.dailycamera.com/news/ci_19373994

Just reminding everyone to be thankful this holiday season (and all seasons), don't leave candles lit, turn off your stoves and unplug lights on your Christmas trees.  And no...Alex wasn't working.  He is still the white cloud of the fire station.
