Area 51

December 20th, 2011 by Jeremy

Russell from work went to Las Vegas and Area 51 over the weekend.  Area 51 is totally on my bucket list.  I wanted to go on my honeymoon but I was nicely reminded Area 51 isn’t the most romantic of destinations.  Thanks for the shotglass Russell!  LOVE it…

Starbucks “Boss”

November 29th, 2011 by Jeremy

The Starbucks barista and I were having a good time the other day.  He asked “how’s it going boss?” when I first walked up to place my order so I went with it when he asked for my name for the drink order.  I’ve always wanted to say my name is Zeus for the places where they have to say your name over the loud speaker.  Random I know and for some reason I have a feeling I would crack myself up more than anyone else which makes it all that more funny (to me at least).
