Yasi... What ME cook??The one person that tries to boil tea and catches the bag on fire?? Nope, haven't learned a thing. Not to mention that he LOVES Mc Donalds and KFC, he would rather eat American food. So, i got lucky there!!

I am staying at my dad's house until he gets here then we are going to go get a place :) So no house to get ready either. He "forbade" me to go shopping for anything, because he wants to do it when he gets here. (Oh dear, he can outshop me!!)

I think I am going to have too much time on my hands :( for these 3 weeks to pass!

Hmmm... I wonder what he looks like after a year!??! What fun!!

OH MY... I can already similarities here... HE LOVES KFC.... He can't get enough of it... We're in luck... but then mine loves certain Persian foods.... Thank god for mom... She can cook for him :whistle::lol::lol:

He didn't forbade me, I think he didn't want to go that far (since he is not sure WHEN he is here) but he asked me nicely not to buy anything 'till he gets here... :lol:

You and I need to swap stories about these two... ;)
