Quote of the day

Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way you can understand them. This quote came from the Czech Republic .

Someone over there has it figured out. We have a lot of work to do.

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama,who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

Day 1

Well today was very uneventful, nothing going on but a boring day at work. I did however figure out that a day after a ten hour drive, I am still tired. I did not realize how tired I would be even a day later. So not a whole lot of writing going on today. Just a forshadow of what I will talk about tomorrow. I am going to start off by talking about how i took off the month of June and most of July, only working two days a week through July. Then getting married at the end of that month. Lots of golf, Ruidoso, and a great wedding with a wonderful surprise for the bride (not mine). More golf and then having to spend a weekend at my brothers because we could not get home. It has been the best summer of my life finally topping the summer I turned 16 while playing soccer in Italy. Anyways gotta go, bed is calling. Being 30 takes a bit more effort than it used to.

Summer Vacation

My wife and I went on a road trip this last week, yeah thats right "my wife", never thought i would be saying that did ya. Anyways, I just got back from a week away from Lubbock, and have actually been away from our home since that previous Sunday. We were at my brothers house, house sitting till Wednesday which is when we left and headed to Fort Worth. Now we are house sitting her parents house till Saturday or Sunday when they head back from Arkansas. I decided that on our ten hour drive back from Arkansas ourselves that I would get back into blogging. So thats what I am going to do. Who knows how many followers I will have and even how interesting it will even be. But tomorrow I will start it all over again. I am only laying the ground work on what i will start talking about. I will most certainly begin with my whole summer in a short paraphrase. Then, oh yeah, i got married, and then this last week. It has been a long crazy summer that i really needed. I didn't even work the month of june if that tells you anything. I will then start on my first day of school. Yep you read right, school. I start college on the 30th. So I plan on having quite a bit of stories to tell this semester, and I am still coaching that soccer team. So hopefully you will follow me as I tell lots of fun stories about all the eventfull things that have and will happen. Including all the cooking adventures I go on with all my new kitchen toys we got as wedding presents. See you tomorrow...

Change this please...

I am now officially tired of the fact that everytime I call somewhere for info, the very first thing I hear is "to hear this message in english press 1." I am sick and tired of that crap. It should say "to hear this message in Spanish press 1, or go back home and press uno." I should never have to hear anything during my phone conversations that resembles any language other than English. Don't get me wrong, multi-lingual people amaze me, I am not at all. So it does impress me that people can know many different languages, I just don't think that i should have to push an extra button to listen to a message in my own language in my own country. Get rid of the option completely or make everyone sit through a button option for every language on the planet, putting english on number 1 of course since we are in America and that is still our official language, I think...

Till Now, and Till Next Time

Ok, so I am really not good at keeping up with this. But since the last time i was on here i have worked quite a bit. I have been real tired after work and not felt like sitting in front of the computer. To sum it up i closed the day after i got back from the metroplex, then I worked two 530 am mornings in a row and then closed again. It has been an up and down week. To say the least. I have been listening to my brothers new music. If you do not already have it, please go buy it for 5 dollars, it is worth every cent twice over. I have so many things i would love to talk about but not enough time to discuss them all. So many things going on in the world to discuss, from politics, to the people in general. I work in retail of sorts, and have to keep my mouth shut all the time but that does not mean that I can't blog about the selfishness and stupidity of half the general population. So many peopl out there really make me wonder how they even got as far as they did in life, oh wait, i bet the government bailed them out. Cause thats what it seems to be happening, the ignorant and irresponsible seem to be getting more help than those that are keeping our country afloat, or at least above water. But I could sit here all day and talk about that. I won't because my butt already hurts from sitting in this chair. Hmm, maybe that ismy problem, I need a better chair for this and maybe I will stick around more. Oh well, I am off to prepare for my fantasy football draft. At least this keeps me from watching more news and seeing what is going on the world, and who really wants to do that with all the destruction that is going on. Oh and if i were you, check out the little league world series, it is awesome. Good to know that there is still some form of innocence out there, (hopefully). They don't take steroids at that age do they, just kidding, that would be aweful. Well gotta go, I really am trying to get on here more and talk about things. You never know you may actually enjoy my opinions, they could make for some good comedy. Till Next time...

Uninspired...

I only say uninspired because of certain things going on with my dad. His health is not real good at the moment. It is hard for me to think of anything to blog about. But I did have a great weekend in the metroplex. I got to see my sister and my cousin and her husband. Caught up with an old friend and talked about his family that I practically grew up with. I have lots of pictures of me and my family at the ball park in arlington. I think one of the best things i got to do was take my nephew to center field and watch the Boston Red Sox take batting practice. He almost got to a couple of balls thrown into the center field grass. Although i was losing weight as I stood there it was extremely rewarding to watch the excitement on his face every time a ball was hit. I will post a few pictures here, and the rest will be on my facebook page. go check them out.

On a different note, those of you that use itunes, or myspace. My younger brother Josh has released the first of four albums. It is a mixture of full band music, acoustic, and acapella (i know i probably misspelled it). Anyways, it is just a preview of what is to come from the next three albums. I can say that i have heard some of the other stuff (benefits of being a brother) and there is more greatness to come. Trust me if you listen to the one song on myspace (Amy, Please) you will want to immediately download itunes and buy the whole album. Please do, you will not regret it whatsoever.

So I leave you with this. Never underestimate the power of the human spirit and what visits with family and people who care will do for those who are in need of proof there is much to be left behind, whether you believe it or not. So no matter how tired you are or how busy you think you are, There is not an excuse in the world that will allow you to not go and be with the very people that is responsible for who you are today...

G.I Joe

Went and saw the movie today. It was good, not to fond of the similarities between the main bad guy at the end and darth vador, but what can you do. All in all it was a good movie, definitely recommend watching it. It was a good way to end what was a busy day of sorts. Worked from 7 to 3, and as i got home pretty much went straight to the theatre after a quick bite to eat. No interesting conversations today. No intriguing thoughts either, but the day has not ended and i have started cooking dinner for the fellas, enchiritos are on the menu. Nothing real complicated but with inspiration from my sister-in-laws blogspot, i will be taking pictures. I will try and make them look as pretty as I possiby can consider that they really just go in a pan and get baked. Maybe something will pop up over dinner that i can talk about that will be more interesting than a plain pan of enchiritos. Fare well for now my friends.

I am back for quick description of dinner. I know for sure that i need new cookware, but the old stuff still works. Those of you that have eaten these at taco bell know that they are really good, easy and cheap to make for yourself. Enchilada sauce, ground beef, refried beans, green chiles, cheese, and tortilla's. There are lots of seasonings that go along with it, but just use your imagination if you try and make these and I am sure that they will be delicious. So now i am retiring to a quiet night on the couch to watch, American Outlaws (watch if you ever get a chance). And so i am finally done for the day...
