It's official!!! I need to put my scraper back in my car. Also to note, breaking out the winter coat wouldn't be a bad move either. I just hope some of this snow starts to stick. It's all melting so far, except for the stuff on the cars, which is reassuring. I've rediscovered this blog thing, crazy stuff. I might even start updating it. hahahaha.... no really, I might. Andyway, my nose won't stop running, I keep coughing, and sneezing and it's driving me crrrrrrrrrrazy. But I digress, winter is here it's time to cheer! Have a nice summer!

I pity Bears Fans: First off, this guy was talking crap on a Green Bay Packers message board. Secondly, he was talking up the Bears huge win over the 2-7 49ers. I felt the need to intervene. Here's what was said, first by the Bears Fan, then my Response: "we have a big reason to it was windy and they had 8 guys in the box and we rushed for 170 yards and just about 70 passing. and there rushing def is not bad.they had the line stacked for the run and we killed them and they could not score 2 times at the 1 yard line and we had a 108 yard return an nfl first in that game and we took 1st in def yards we have 1st in td givin up rank in the top 10 for take away 1st in def redzone % r off has the best o-line in the nfl to make holes for r running game that big in a game where we could not throw do to winds of 40mph we rank 5th in rushing we rank low in passing but what can i say it sucks but is getting alot better.are rookie qb is making some mistakes but not as many as your qb h...

Don't panic, it's ok, I'm still alive. There, now we got that out of the way. I've had an epiphany, and it's somewhat blog related. The more bored I am, and the less I have going on in my life the more I post. And inversely the more I have going on the less I post. So I'll give you a guess as to how much I've had going on. If it were able to be quantified it'd be higher than recent powerball jackpots. I had intentions of going to Madison for Halloween, but now all I read are articles from people telling me not to go. Now, I've already made other plans and I'm not going, but these articles make me want to go even more. It's like saying, "don't drink and drive." It's like a challenge. One of the hardest things ever to do that ends up being incredibly easy after you do it. You'd never guess it. Snaps, the little white things that you throw at the ground that make a snapping noise. Well, anyway try snapping one ...

I don't think WROX are the right letters, but meh, I don't really care. If you know what it's from you'll say it in your head, or out loud, and if you don't, don't worry about it. I read this in an article on nfl.com this morning, found it rather humorous. Media note: Injury-riddled secondaries must be referred to as "banged up" while injury-riddled offensive lines become "patchwork." It's just like in baseball, in which right-handed pitchers are "veteran" and left-handers are "crafty." Here endeth the lesson. So, anyhoo, hope everyone is doing well with themselves. I've given up on trying to update this regularly. First of all there isn't enough terribly interesting stuff going on, and that gets boring for me and you. The only thing I have is this. Tara's coming this weekend! :) And she might get a job here. We'll see how that goes. I'll try to keep ya posted. She comes Thursday, I work Fri...

Tick Tick Tick... *Looks at watch* "There goes another one..." If that wasn't you then, Have a nice summer!

Anybody else feel like they're too busy to even write down their thoughts. Yeah, I wasn't quite to that point so I think I'm going to add another class to my schedule, I'd like to graduate early and this is one way to do it. Anyhoo, not much has been happening lately. College Republicans meeting tonight, gonna miss The OC. That's sad. But I'm sure I'll be able to download it and watch it tomorrow morning before work while I'm working on homework I'm not going to have time to do this weekend. Aw crap. I have to meet with my group tomorrow at 10. Bah. Anyway, I gotta get going, thought I'd stop by for a few seconds and say hello. Have a nice summer!

"Tiny Dancer, two words. That strike a chord in the heart of every sensitive 32 year old man. A song actually I don't think I'd ever heard until I saw Almost Famous. So every night before going to bed, I thank Cameron Crowe for opening up a part of me that I don't think I never knew until now." -Dave Grohl It's been such an eventful time this month that I just haven't had time to post anything for a while. Typically when I haven't posted for a while I go all out and make a new layout and a huge new post, but I really like what I've done with the place, so why fix it up?? Anyhoo, it's been a wonderful wonderful month. I think I've seen Tara more this month than I did in the last year, it's been fantabulous. My new picture is the Avatar from my Yahoo profile, it includes a picture of a brown chihuahua. Now I know it's not the right color and it's not long hair, but it's my version of Zoe, Tara's puppy. That picture ...

Insignificance. Sitting in a 757 staring down on the thousands of lights that make up Minneapolis, that word comes to mind. Yearning. The days I long for can't come soon enough, but once here will never last long enough. Excitement. Though subtle and small it's exciting, the return home is overdue and needed. Exuberance. The feeling can only come from the familiarity of home and one's own bed. Deliriously Happy. Love. Have a nice summer!

Here's the official word on Wedding Crashers as determined by myself, Hilarious! Well, today David and I leave for Washington, we're leaving Eau Claire in about 2 hours and heading for Minneapolis then it's off to the West Coast. I couldn't sleep at all last night, I don't know if it was about the trip or what but I'm gonna be tired tonight. I didn't fall asleep until sometime around 2:30am and I woke up and couldn't get back to sleep at 7am. For a grand total of 4.5 hours of sleep. I was really tired last night, probably from driving, that usually makes me tired. Anyhoo, I'll update when we return from the trip. Until then, I expect you to hold down the fort, don't let anything get out of hand, and no parties, I mean it. Have a nice summer!

So here's a fun story from the other day... I was reading this magazine, it may have been National Geographic, I don't remember. I wasn't reading it, I was paging through it. But I saw this picture and it made me giggle. It was a turtle sitting on a kangaroo's head eating a giraffe. I'll let that sink in for a second..... annnnd good.... Ok so after that it inspired me to turn on the Travel Channel. They had that one woman that goes to all of those exotic locations to show you some cool place that you'll never be able to afford to go. I love that show. Well I turned that on and you'd never believe it, they showed a turtle on a kangaroo's head eating a giraffe. Well, then I went golfing and I hit a ball in the water. I was so mad about hitting the ball in the water that I jumped in after it. Well, I did find it, along with a couple others. When I was getting out of the water I got attacked by geese. Yeese, geese. Then I almost passed out so ...

So, after driving 4.5 hours yesterday to Detroit Lakes, MN I'm here in the hotel until this afternoon when the wedding starts. After the wedding and probably some drinking tonight, traveling will commence as follows... Sunday Aug. 14: Drive to Minneapolis, pick up Zoe, Drive to Tara's parents. 5 hours. Monday Aug. 15: Drive to Des Moines. 2.5 hours. Tuesday Aug. 16: In Des Moines, no traveling. Wednesday Aug. 17: Drive to Eau Claire. 4.5 hours. Thursday Aug. 18: Drive to Minneapolis Airport. 1.5 hours. Thursday Aug. 18: Get through security at Airport. 2 hours. Thursday Aug. 18: Fly to Seattle, WA. 3.5 hours. Thursday Aug. 18: Wait for my friend's parents flight to arrive. 2 hours. Thursday Aug. 18: Meet Sean's parents, drive to Wenatchee, WA. Approx. 2.5 hours. Friday Aug. 19: Wedding rehearsal. Saturday Aug. 20: Sean's Wedding. Sunday Aug. 21 - Tuesday Aug. 23: No idea. Something in WA. Wednesday Aug. 24: Leave Wenatchee for Seattle 7am. 2.5 hours. Wednesday ...

Ask and ye shall receive. Apparently that's true. My previous post asked for someone to work for me so that I could go to Des Moines, and sure enough I just got back from Des Moines this afternoon. I didn't even lose any hours in the deal, it worked out fantabulously. Today at work is what I'm going to call, "The Craziest Night at Copp's Food Center EVER!" Here goes... First off, I got to work and it was really really dark out. Like, we're all going to die due to the ominous clouds, kinda dark out. So we kept randomly going outside to see what the weather was like, mostly because we didn't want to be there and were hoping that the power would go out. Well, the last time we went out there as the storm was going away, Brian, the Manager on Duty tonight, came out behind us to see what we were doing. There was a fire somewhere nearby, most likely from the lightening, and we could hear sirens. Brian made the comment, "I wonder if one of those ...

So here's an interesting fact: Zach Braff is the voice of the Cottonelle Puppy. In other news, will somebody work for me so I can go to Des Moines?? Anybody?? Come on.... Have a nice summer!

So here's an interesting discovery. Northwest airlines mechanics started a 30-day cooling off period that may end in a strike . For those of you that don't know, David and I are going to Washington on the 18th to go to the wedding of a friend from high school. Well, lucky for us we're flying Northwest. What's even more lucky, or luckier if you will, is that we fly back the 24th, 4 days after the 30-day cooling off period will end. YAY! Though the article does say that Northwest will continue to fly if the strike happens, so we could get home. We just might be on a plane that's missing a wing or something because they didn't have anyone to fix it. Ah well, I've been through worse things. Have a nice summer!

What a great week, last day of class tomorrow, then the final test on Friday. I don't work tomorrow so I'm sure I'll go golfing as long as the weather is nice. I also don't work until 4pm on Friday so I'm going to go golfing with some guys from work, again if the weather is nice. It's turning out to be a wonderful week, hope all is well with everyone. :) Have a nice summer!

So, I researched as well as I could. Ok so I just looked at the Coldstone website . But all I could find out was that they use "the highest quality ingredients." Frankly, that doesn't help me at all. So, in conclusion, Coldstone is delicious, and we may never know why. Have a nice summer!

Taking another page out of ieatpaint.com here are things people have searched for recently to get to my site: How to build a trellace Wisconsin I don't know, and where on my site is a trellace?? Insomniac Message Board Welcome home. Llandfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrudrobwllllantysiliogogogoch Ah yes, My home away from home. Globe Shingles Ha, don't you know they went out of business? remmus ecin a evah To quote Tara, "Why would anybody search for that??" Signs that you're an insomniac Well, you made it here. But for me it's saying hello to my friend that lives in Europe when it's 9 or 10 am there, making it 3 or 4 am here. Depressed insomniac What can I do to help?? Have a nice summer!

I went golfing today, just got back a little bit ago. In case anyone, ie. Mark, hasn't been outside yet today, it's really really hot out. I walked the Front 9 and I was sweating oh so bad. I actually started just refilling my water bottle with the sweat and recycling it. I broke down and got a cart for the Back 9 because I still wanted to play but I didn't want to die of heat exhaustion and dehydration. Apparently recycled sweat doesn't hydrate you very well, who knew?? Well, now I'm back in the Air Conditioning and I'm not moving, nope nope nope. Although, Coldstone does sound delicious, very delicious in fact. Tara and I went there on Sunday night, I'd never been there. It was pretty much the greatest thing ever. Now if only it weren't so expensive. That reminds me, we were going to look to see if we could find how they make their ice cream. It isn't the same consistency of normal ice cream, it's like a mix between normal ice cream...

The weekend was awesome, thank you to everyone that came it really was a great time. "Shut up frogs, I'm gonna pee on you!" - Peter, right before he fell in the water. So great, ha. The weekend wasn't overly eventful, I felt kind of bad because there were so many people there that I didn't get a chance to really visit with all of them. Oh well, it was still a lot of fun. One more week left of class, and then I get a good 3-4 weeks off before the fall semester. I really need those weeks off. I can't wait until we head out to Seattle for my friend Sean's wedding. It's gonna be awesome. Dane Cook - "Sometimes you meet somebody, and the second you're introduced you just get that feeling like you hate somebody's guts." I think he was talking about Jack. Well, I don't have much to say, I need to get my mind off things. So until next time. Have a nice summer!

Ah the sounds of Journey arguably one of the greatest bands of all time. Oh, who am I kidding, they definitely are. And nobody can deny that, nobody. I have this urge to post something, but I also have absolutely nothing to talk about, so here comes a post of rambling , YES!! My FAVORITE kind of post. So, today I cleaned my car , and by cleaned my car I mean I went back to the my days of detailing at Brostrom Kickert Chevrolet . Well, I went all out with the cleaning, the entire inside, outside, topside, bottomside, upside, downside, sideside, othersideside, did I say inside?? Well, you get it. The point is, well I guess there really isn't much of a point. But at any rate my car is no longer dirty. Perfect timing before we go camping this weekend! Well, I took all of the stuff out of it and it filled one of the UWEC carts . Why is everybody talking about Harry Potter ? It's not like there's a new book out or anything. Right? This is becoming the post of links . ...
