Never a dull moment with Rod Dawg!

I am not a big fan of the shout outs on blogs, but I am feeling the need to this time. Today is Rodney's 25th Birthday. Rodney and I have been friends for a number of years and it is all the result of a Big Hunk candy bar. Rodney was new to our school freshman year and never said a word. One day I had went to the snack bar and bought a Big Hunk bar and as I walked back to the table where my friends were sitting I saw Rod by himself eating his lunch and reading a book. I sat down at his table and asked if he would like to sit with us, he turned me down but did ask what I was eating. After finding out that he had never had the bar of nougaty and nutty heaven on earth I went and bought him one and the rest is history.
Me, Rodney, and Rob posing before a school dance (yes those are white suspenders and yes I am embarrassed)

Rod the Almighty


Couldn't hardly wait to try out their new Christmas gift.


Known to have a deep thought or two.


Best man and friend.



Happy Birthday Rod!

i LOVE.LOVE.LOVE. the story of how you two met, its one of my favorite all time love-stories :) i also am loving the fact that you dedicated a whole blog to rod...fan.tas.tic!
ps: the suspenders are amazing... one question: is your flower-y thing actually attached to the suspenders??

I don't recall how the flower was attached but I am going to say 'no' for the time being.

The best part about the suspenders is that there were no clips on them, I think they broke off or got lost and so the loops are just threaded through my belt (yes I was wearing a belt with suspenders... I was in St. Johns, I did not know any better!)
