Luck of the Irish...

Happy St. Patrick's Day! It feels like I'm carrying around a four-leaf clover because today has turned out to be a nice one. First, I survived my second trip to the dentist. I cannot tell you how long it had been since I last went in for a cleaning...years! Yet, after all the x-rays were developed the only two cavities that I have were two I already knew about. Whew! I was surprised...and happy to finally get my teeth cleaned.

Second, I got home around 2PM and found a big surprise waiting for me in the mailbox...my letter of incorporation had arrived from the Secretary of State's office! Yep, that means SpeakOUT is legally and officially a domestic non-profit organization according to the state of Ohio. What a journey! I was really proud of myself holding that certificate in my hands. Now I have to apply to be classified as a 501c3 with the IRS and then people can donate money to us and get a tax deduction...and boy do we need money!

Last, Brian and I just got back from Dave & Busters. He has been acting really down ever since Friday, so I surprised him by running a couple of mundane errands first and then pulling into D&B parking lot! I had a game card loaded with $20 in chips just sitting in my wallet - so we ate some chips and he got a couple of beers. We spent the better part of the next hour blasting away the walking dead in the best damned video game out there - House of the Dead. We LOVE that game - version 2 (or is it 3) with the shotguns. Man, I would love to have one of those games in my house. Then we played skee-ball and old games like Donkey Kong. It was a nice little adults only afternoon away from the kids and house chores. I think Brian really appreciated getting out and doing something fun.

D&B Hottie Alert!! Notice to all my single readers: our bartender, whose name is Ellis, was a total hottie. He serves drinks at the Midway Bar at the D&B in Hilliard. Ellis is about 6 feet tall and was athletically built. I love guy's backs and his looked muscle-licious even with a shirt on. LOL He has dark hair (clean cut with a trim beard) dark eyes and glasses. He was all sorts of yummy. Nice smile too! So go out there and get some of that - and then share all the details with me. :o)

Hope you all are feeling lucky today too! Cheers!
