BOO! Ha Ha! Gotcha didn't I? Oh. You weren't scared huh? Not even a little? Shucks. I'm as bad at this as I am at cornhole. Lost another game this morning. Had a little light shine through the darkness, but in the end, I swerved right and left, and missed it completely.
It's Halloween, and I'm sitting at work. It's the end of the month, where things are a little crazy for some. Lots of date changes to be done to orders, so that's where I come in. I'm the unofficial "official" date changer of orders, whatever that means right? It means if they yell I listen.
Everybody have fun tonight, everybody Wang Chung tonight! I'll be on the computer or watching TV. TTFN!

Hump day.....
It's a normal Wednesday for me. Work is slow (actually it's lunch time, why am I here?), so hopefully going to get to play some cornhole later. It's a great game if you never heard of it. It's like horseshoes, except with beanbags, and boards with a hole instead of posts. It's lots of fun.
Asked my wife if she wanted the quilt on the bed last night. She thought about it, said it would warm her up early, then suffocate her later. So the quilt stayed off. That's OK. Next few days going into the 70's, lows in the 40's, so we'll survive. No snow here!
I should go eat lunch huh? What do I want? I had tuna yesterday, tonight for dinner I don't know what we're having. Chicken sounds good, but I'm kinda in the mood for mexican food. Just nobody here to go with. Could go to the chinese buffet, but rather wait until next week when it's not as warm out and I enjoy the hot food to warm me up inside, make me feel all cozy and cuddly like (yes, I'm nuts!).
Have a great day! TTFN!

Time to brag....
Just got back from my son, Anthony's, last cross-country meet of 2008. Today was another 2-mile trek, with haybales and logs to go over, hills everywhere, and a number of schools represented. To this point, his best time for a 2-mile course has been 16 minutes 33 seconds. Well, I have to put this in big bold type:
14 minutes 41.6 seconds
Yep! That's my boy. Saves the best for last. I am very proud of him. Now, some would say that 7 minute plus miles are not that great. And under normal circumstances, it isn't. But this child has only been doing this since the start of September. Training every day (except weekends), and has never run distance before. So, for a 14-year old in his first year, that's GREAT!! WOOHOO!!
Now it's time to eat, so going to go. TTFN y'all!

Welcome one and all....
I don't know why, but here I am. Posting anything and everything that comes to mind. I am sitting at work, it's 3:22 pm, and I am listening to Pandora Radio. The work is done for the day, and I am leaving in 45 minutes to go watch my son run his final cross-country race of the season.
My son is not the best runner on the team, but that's OK. It's his first year. And he's been running 2-miles or more every weekday. I even have him run in the evening when the practices are cancelled in the morning to keep him ready for the race. He likes it, and has not complained at all about having to wake up before 6am to get to practice. In the spring, hopefully he will still enjoy it and join the school track team. He is not good for sprints, but he is good for distance.
Would post more, but not much going on right now. I have a digital camera, so will hopefully get to put some pictures on here. Then you can see who's posting. Of course, then I'll probably lose you as a reader, but hey, I'm willing to risk it. Hopefully you'll like what you read and keep coming back regardless. Until then....
TTFN!
