today

I realized that I wasn’t able to open my blog at work because of a certain word in the first post.  I’ve changed that word so hopefully I can open it at work and post more often…


It’s mother’s day and neither Tracey or I are spending time with our mothers.  Instead, we have had a fairly lazy day around the house and in town.  I’m not really motivated to type a big post, so sorry for letting you down if you thought otherwise.  

Have a nice day.

procrastinator

Yes, it’s late at night (or early in the morning-whatever your view is) and I find myself yet again working on homework that is due tomorrow. In addition to the homework, I have a final exam and a quiz tomorrow night. The quiz will be pretty easy…in fact, on my last trip to the bathroom, I did my studying for that. I’m ready, too. I’m not sure about the final yet, but I seem to do okay when I study for things like this more last minute than way ahead of time. 


Today I saw a couple of great movies (instead of finishing this homework and studying). The first one was early this afternoon called “Drumline.” It came out in 2002 but I didn’t see many movies back in those days so I’m still playing catch up. The second movie I watched this evening while eating pizza that I made outside on the grill (awesome!). John and Jennifer came over to eat dinner and watch “August Rush,” a movie they saw recently but we’ve wanted to see for a little while. The music in this movie is incredible-so much so that I will absolutely buy the soundtrack for it. That’s saying something because other than the High School Musical soundtracks, I typically stay away from them. If you haven’t yet seen this movie, do it…now…it’s gotta be better than what you’re doing anyway.  

Okay…that’s enough…back to homework so I can go to bed.

virgin blog

I’m not really a blog virgin. I’ve started more than one blog in the past. Truth is, I can’t remember how to get to them because I haven’t been back to them in a while. What’s funnier is the most recent one was not all that long ago. I’ve checked several different avenues that the blog may have been started on, and i just can’t find it. So we’ll try this. Instead of writing about all the happenings in my life, I’d like to take time to recognize all of those moments that happen each day that just make me laugh and wonder wtf? Keep in mind, in all that I say on here, I’m not trying to complain or pretend that I am all high and mighty…far from it, actually. I just want to get that out of the way.


I might also share some of the photos I take on here. I have no pictures to post today because I don’t have any on this computer, but we’ll see.  

I do want to share that I saw another guy’s (I had to delete this word because it wouldn’t allow me to open my blog at work…the word is a synonym for “sack”) last night. The guy was one of the part-time wranglers that help out with wrangler-things at work. They did a “Western Extravaganza” for the group that was out this weekend and the guy got stepped on in the n**s by a bull. I got a call on the radio that this had happened just shortly before going home, so I needed to give him a company vehicle to go to the hospital. One of the wrangler interns came with him to my office-he actually took this guy to the hospital. While they were there, I was writing my cell number on the back of my card so they could call me if they have any trouble. While I’m bent over my desk writing, he’s off to the side asking me if I want to see something crazy…I said “I don’t know if I do or not…” So I look over and he has his s*****m stuck out of his pants and shows me this puncture wound…about half the size of a dime in diameter-this guy has an actual hole in his s*****m…OUCH!!!  

So they went to the hospital and this morning, I asked about how it went. Apparently, the guy got stitched up and everything after receiving a topical anesthetic, but they had to go to the hospital next door for a sonogram of the area. After the sonogram, they had to go back to the first hospital for a second look to make sure his balls were okay. They returned around 3am. The best part of all of it is, they did not encounter a single male doctor during the entire ordeal.

Whiskey…Tango…Foxtrot… over…
