Glad You Could Stop By! Please, Come on in and Soak Up The Greatness!
"You're not going to wear a pink shirt to the movies are you?"
"Why? What's wrong with the pink shirt? It's from the Blue Dog Café in Lafayette. A very good Cajun café. I was going to get the blue shirt, but they were out of blue shirts so I went the stylish route and got a pink one instead." I explained.
"I'm not saying that the subject matter is strange, it's just I never thought I'd see you in a pink shirt." Melissa responded.
"Well obviously you have yet to step into my vault," I replied. "The shirts inside those walls will make your imagination run wild."
Now before I continue this journal, I know you all are asking the same question. Adrik, who exactly is the Blue Dog? Well let me tell you.
The Blue Dog is a series of paintings by the great Louisiana artist George Rodrigue. The painting usually show a blue-hued dog looking with a blank empty expression at the viewer. The image is both scary and mystifying. And very haunting. I love the artwork and have several paintings hanging in my house. Do yourself a favour and look up some of his works. Truly fascinating and really makes even the most recreational of art aficionados appreciate his paintings.
And if you ever get to Lafayette, Louisiana, do yourself another favour and stop in at the Blue Dog Café. You won't regret it.
So anyways, back to the journal.
Because Melissa was certain that us going to the cinema with me wearing a pink shirt was going to be the thing that finally toppled the world into chaos, I agreed to change shirts so that way we could enjoy our night out without too much pinkness invading the atmosphere. So I hastily changed into my best Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers shirt (I do have 5 of them after all) and we headed out to go see both The Witch and Deadpool.
Deadpool was surprisingly good, despite me having very little understanding of what was going on. We didn't get to see The Witch because of technical issues at the theatre and it was too late by that point to go to another, so we just rescheduled that film for this upcoming weekend.
And yes, before you ask, we did take the children to go see Zootopia. Twice. Last weekend. Seeing it IMAX is the only way to see it. It's frickin awesome. And be sure to go to Toys R Us afterwards and stock up on Zootopia toys. For the kids. Of course...
And yes I do have Zootopia shirts on order. Should be here by the end of the week! Wooo!
Oh, I do see a paw raised in the back there. Go ahead with your question. Oh. I didn't cover that? I see. Well that's a very good question then.
I guess I failed to mention the new lady friend in my life. I actually mentioned it to a few lucky worshippers of mine on Skype, but wanted to have the relationship going for a month or so before I broke the news on here. I met a girl named Melissa back at the beginning of February when I was doing the yearly ritual of tax returns and accounting. She was from Alaska and heard me talking about Alaska for some reason and we got to talking and I somehow found the courage to ask her out to dinner to see if she wanted to continue the conversation and lo and behold, she said yes.
And that was 6 weeks ago.
We have been going out the last few weekends, taking the twins and her daughter (she has a 5 year old named Autumn) to movies and along the Riverwalk and to the outdoor markets and down to the shore. I've been getting so much sailing in the last few weekends. Oh I love sailing. I love the coast! Melissa enjoys it as well, so we've been getting a boat and spending our free weekends out on the Gulf.
I think I am going to take a portion of my tax refund and put it down on a beachfront house. And a boat. I know it sounds ludicrous, but I have renewed my love of the sea and I met someone who enjoys the adventure as much as I do, and let's face it, everybody loves a great beach house.
Plus, waterfront property is always a great investment. I figure if I can get a place of my own (no timeshares or vacation properties for this Wolf) for under $500,000 I'll be in good shape. We've actually looked at a couple places and my imagination is going wild. Until I find what's right, a place that's a couple hour drive for me and the twins and Melissa and her daughter to escape to on the weekends, I shall keep my eyes open and we will enjoy our weekend drives down and renting a boat to go out and stake our own little piece of nautical heaven.
So, yes, that's what's been going on with this Wolf for the past month and a half-ish. I'm sure some of you have noticed that I've been more productive and more upbeat lately...and that's the reason why.
That, and have you seen the way I'm killing things nationally in the polls? I'm so great that it's becoming a phenomenon! But you already knew that. You know what they say about a Wolf who has big paws and 5 awesome Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers shirts in his closet.
Yeah, you know.
By the way, would anyone be interested in buying any of my bottled water or Wolf-branded steaks? They have my face on them and ooze out all sorts of flavourful juices when you put them on the grill. Anyone?
Come on guys! I need to buy a beach house! Didn't you read my journal!
Oh what the heck do I care? You all know I'm big and great where it counts!
~Until next time!
