Meatyloaf Timmy

Sometimes when I get bored at work I IM my friend, and we have funny, random conversations. Like take this one for example - where we start chatting about Tim McGraw and end up with Beefcake...

(4:38 PM) Grecia: hey is tim mcgraw an actor as well?
(4:38 PM) Aubrey: yea but only recently
(4:39 PM) Grecia: REALLY!
(4:40 PM) Grecia: holy macaroni. he looks better with the cowboy hat on.
(4:41 PM) Aubrey: i don't like him without his hat!
(4:42 PM) Grecia: yeah he's got weird hair and he just doesn't look as melting without it. oh. in case you didn't know he's my husband too. but only when he wears his hat.
(4:43 PM) Aubrey: hahaha well fine, you have him and i get RYAN REYNOLDS!
(4:43 PM) Grecia: oh no i call dibs on him too!
(4:44 PM) Aubrey: nope i called first dibs

(4:44 PM) Aubrey: gerard and timmy
(4:45 PM) Grecia: timmy? aubrey really... timmy?

(4:45 PM) Aubrey: i'm sure Faith calls him Timmy
(4:46 PM) Grecia: oh boy.
(4:46 PM) Grecia: timmy doesn't go well with that hunk of a man.
(4:46 PM) Aubrey: hunk!? hahahah
(4:46 PM) Aubrey: that's a funny word
(4:46 PM) Grecia: stop making me laugh out loud!
(4:47 PM) Grecia: Yes. he's a HUNK.
(4:48 PM) Grecia: from wikipedia: Hunk- A slang term for a sexually appealing man, a person who is sexually attractive or a well-muscled, sexualized man, as in beefcake.
(4:50 PM) Grecia: BEEFCAKE. hehehehe.
(4:52 PM) Aubrey: BEEFCAKE!?
(4:52 PM) Aubrey: Beefcake.
(4:52 PM) Aubrey: For real.
(4:52 PM) Aubrey: that sounds like a bad cake.
(4:52 PM) Aubrey: like, a meatloaf.
(4:52 PM) Grecia: that's what it says....
(4:52 PM) Aubrey: MEATYLOAF TIMMY
(4:52 PM) Grecia: Oh this is just too funny!
(4:53 PM) Grecia: um... can i post this conversation in my blog under funny things? hahahaha
(4:54 PM) Aubrey: Oh go for it, I want to remember this day for all time and eternity.
(4:54 PM) Aubrey: Mrs. Beefcake

So if you have a recipe or have made beefcake before, please do tell me so. I'm interested. 

She got her wings

In her last week I spent as much time as I could with my friend. I had time to tell her all she meant to me, and how much I loved her. It's hard losing someone so close to you. I miss her so much already. A person couldn't have asked for a better friend. She was always there for me. Always giving me advice and cheering me on throughout school. She gave me strength when I felt weak. Believed in me when I lacked confidence. She was always so happy, positive, full of energy...

Yesterday, I lost a friend. But at the same time, I gained another angel who'll be watching over me. I will always love you Karen, and never forget you.

This song is for you.

when i think back on these times
and the dreams we left behind
i'll be glad because i was blessed to get to have you in my life
when i look back on these days
i'll look and see your face
you were right there for me

in my dreams i'll always see you soar
above the sky
in my heart
there always be a place
for you for all my life
i'll keep a part of you with me
and everywhere i am there you'll be
and everywhere i am there you'll be

well you showed me how it feels
to feel the sky within my reach
and i always will remember all the strength you gave to me
your love made me make it through
oh i owe so much to you
you were right there for me

in my dreams i'll always see you soar
above the sky
in my heart
there always be a place
for you for all my life
i'll keep a part of you with me
and everywhere i am there you'll be

because i always saw in you my light, my strength
and i want to thank you now for all the ways
you were right there for me
you were right there for me
for always

in my dreams i'll always see you soar
above the sky
in my heart
there always be a place
for you for all my life
i'll keep a part of you with me
and everywhere i am there you'll be
and everywhere i am there you'll be
there you'll be
