New Background

What do you think of the background?

Attack Of The Giant Spiders

Monday, August 30th, 2004

I just had a near death experience. But before I go into how, let me give you some of the events leading up to this.
A little over a month ago I cut some really tall bushes at the back of my house down. Well, part of the reason that I did it is [...]

Weight

Monday, August 30th, 2004

Okay I’m down to about 207 now. That leaves me about 17 lbs to go. I think one of the problems I’m running into is that I am overdoing the insulin on my nightshifts. I end up with low readings almost every meal and then have to overeat to compensate for it. [...]

The Braves

Monday, August 30th, 2004

Last night the Braves got crushed by a one-man team named Barry Bonds. Though I hate to see the Braves ever lose a game, I really enjoy the fact that they pitch to Bonds. Joe Morgan was relating a conversation with Bobby Cox in which Joe asked why the Braves pitch to Bonds [...]

Little Miss Grown Pants

Thursday, August 26th, 2004

Good Lord, the baby is using the computer by herself now.

Marilyn called to check on Emily and the baby answered the phone with a cheery “Hi, Mommy!” just after announcing to the room “I got it”.
This is going too fast for me.

Windows Into The Soul

Thursday, August 26th, 2004

If the eyes are the windows into the soul, here is a peek into my soul.

Pretty gross, eh? I wonder what that says about my soul?
I went to Dr. Gary Crook who is a longtime family friend. If you happen to be in the Augusta area and need to get your eyes [...]

Bronco

Wednesday, August 25th, 2004

Whew.
My Father-in-law (Daddy), Robert Lee and I spent the day doing a 2 hour job to Daddy’s 1984 Bronco. All we wanted to do was change the water pump and thermostat. The water pump came off just fine, but one of the bolts that holds the thermostat to the intake manifold sheared off [...]

Pro-Kerry

Tuesday, August 24th, 2004

I have been told that since I am anti-Bush then I must be a big Kerry supporter. Yes and no. The no part is that I am not one hundred percent sold on all of his ideas, I think there needs to be some serious work done on some of his ideas about [...]

Mexican Radio

Tuesday, August 24th, 2004

I have always been a fan of Wall of Voodoo. It will always strike a chord with me. In my heart of hearts, I am a Thompson Twins loving, spandex wearing, Flashdance watching child of the Eighties.
That being said, I just listened to a version of Mexican Radio by Authority Zero. I must [...]

Barking

Monday, August 23rd, 2004

6 down and 1 to go. I’m so happy that it is almost over. I’m not really good at the night shift to begin with. 7 in a row is horrendous.
And, man, are my dogs barking!
