Cesar

Many of my posts are dedicated to my loving, wonderful, darling, thoughtful, and kind hubby. I just can't seem to stop thinking of all the fantastic things he does-I am so PROUD always! Check back on some of my proud Nic moments(saving that cat, Nic the hunter, etc.) As we near Nic's big 30th b-day(next Friday)-it is like he is really getting better and better daily. He has had quite the week of eventful statements and actions. Let me share a few with you now. Hopefully you will totally get my tone here!!
Valentine's Day- Nic returns home from the fire station at 8:25(he normally gets home at 7:30) because he needed to make a quick stop because he just assumed I would be sleeping in with the girls. When do I ever sleep in with the girls? They don't really sleep in! So he made his little stop to get some v-day goodies. He brought the girls each a little valentine's day book and for me-the Mama-he also brings a little reading material. "Oh honey, how sweet you are!" Nic brought me a copy of Cesar's Way. Now I do love me some Dog Whisperer, and with our new sweet little friend Max-I do need some knowledge in that area. Okay-cool, my husband brought me Cesar's Way for my little "love" gift. It is more than I got him and I always love a little gift. You know we can't be having a good dog gone bad situation here on our hands so Cesar is the MAN!
The real sad part here is not technically the said gift but more so the fact that he then turned around and took the book with him to his next 24 hour shift and read said book from cover to cover. I hadn't even had the chance to get past all of Cesar's acknowledgements. Nic is straight up quoting me book lines on our phone conversation while he is "at work" reading from the stolen gift as if I had given him permission to read it to make sure I would like it so I wouldn't waste my time. Yeah-I never did that. I didn't even know he swiped it!
He is so selfless-gets better everyday ladies-everyday!!

Then we move into "do you think my vote counts somewhat Nic, or do you think I am silly for voting?" Okay so I don't know why I asked this one and more so I don't know why I am sharing it because it does sound a little pathetic. Why must I get hooked on reality tv? I got so irritated when the bachelor Jason Mesnick already has sent home his perfect wife. See I know which one is perfect for him and she is gone now. I turn it off in disgust and secretly vow to never watch it again but I do-every time-check the DVR- I do. There are only 2 shows in which I have ever picked up the phone and casted a vote. One, of course, is "American Idol" and my other guilty pleasure is the summertime fun "So you think you can dance". I don't vote often or much but I do vote when it just wells up inside me that I really believe they need my vote. Anyone else here??
Okay-Danny Gokey has already stolen my heart on AI-his little story just about makes me cry every time I see him and I absolutely love his voice. He is the best hands down and yes I wanted to vote for him. No-I didn't think he really needed it because I am sure others would agree with me here but I wanted to cast a vote. Why did I ask Nic about it? Well friends I am not quite sure.
He proceeded to tell me that my vote only mattered if I wanted to sit there and redial 49,999 more times. He says it would take 50,000 votes to really matter in one case. Where does he come up with these numbers right off the top of his head? Why does he jump right into Negative Nancy, Debby Downerville so quickly and so smoothly?
My flippin vote counted friends-I rocked it-and it counted!
