Introducing...

Well, I did promise I would keep up the introductions so here is my next. This is "Coach."

She is my self proclaimed life coach and my amazing karaoke duet partner. I suppose she chose herself as my life coach because we both have such an unconditional love for McChickens and Bud Light no matter what they may do to us. She also serves as my gracious host (along with Easy E) on my Christmas break vacations to the Sunshine State. The name Coach also comes from the fact that she is the coach of our slow pitch softball team (which I will return to upon my return to Florida) and our kickball team (which I will be joining once I get back as well). Once in Florida while eating our traditional Sunday morning feast of pancakes, eggs, bacon, and mimosas (we were the only two present this particular week), we learned (at my expense I may add) that breakfast gumbo tastes like yuck. I mean think about it, pancakes and syrup good, bacon and syrup good, eggs and syrup not bad (think McGriddle), but eggs, bacon, syrup, and strawberry pancakes... not good.
Here is a better picture of her actual face.

This was at our fancy New Year's Eve Party 2009. It says she's formal, but she's here to party.

Introducing...

So while I was studying today I got a text from a Florida friend who was bored at work so he was reading my blog. He was mildly unhappy (and rightfully so) that in three years he has gone unmentioned on my blog. So I give you "Pinch."

I did not provide the nickname Pinch myself that was given to him by someone else so you can stop those questions right there. Some of you in Illinois may recognize him as the guy I dated my first summer in Florida, but chose not to blog about him at that point due to the creepy factor and the fact that I generally try and play down the crazy. Now as my siblings are reading this and shocked that I put that you really should all remind yourself of that fact that I HAVE NO SHAME. Besides, we are no longer dating, and he knows I'm crazy. He is father to Tia Maria (sorry, don't have a picture of her) who is a beautiful 3 year old (I think) chocolate labrador. I assure you she is much more well-behaved than Prada... but who isn't?

Was that good enough Pinch? I'm not sure what all I was supposed to disclose on the introduction?

Other Florida friends who are reading this and are angry with the Intern for not having been formally introduced YET, chill, I'm working on it (but I've kinda been working on my doctorate so you can live off me in a few years, or something like that...so back off). Oh and I need a nickname for E and will Train Wreck suffice or do I need something else for her? I think I got aliases covered for everyone else.
