Still here...

I doubt anyone even looks at this any more but it HAS been on the edge of my to-do list..just never makes it to the top...

Lots of happenings going on...some of which can be seen in out Picasa photo albums...

• Went to the Chiefs last preseason game and nearly got washed away...I don't remember standing in that hard of a rain since the front yard at the LCA house my junior year which turned into mudslides in the front yard...good times!
  
  
• Our house has been on the market since Memorial Day and of course no interest. There are a total of 5 houses on our STREET for sale right now, 2 of them empty...the one on the end of the block sold a few weeks ago, but we've only had 1 showing since the 4th of July!! Needless to say, we aren't going anywhere any time soon!!
  
  
• Amber is 28 weeks along, with December 9th due date. So we'll have quite the Christmas present this year!!
  
  
• With the house not selling and Amber very pregnant, we've moved the office to the basement and converted the room upstairs to the nursery...just missing the crib and changing table.
  
  
• October 11 is the baby shower, girls will do the shower-thing upstairs, guys will be downstairs watching sports and playing Wii
  
  
• Royals game tonight, woohoo! Its nice living in a town with pro sports but when both teams suck, it definitely losses some appeal...
  
  

I'm sure there is much much more, just gets hard to remember it, so I will try to keep this better up to date for anyone that may still read this...

Blog a blog about it...

For some reason, even when I'm wasting time, blogging isn't on the top of my time wasting list...I guess I'll have to practice wasting time more until I get it right!

Spent the weekend in the AZ...Went to the Grand Canyon on Sunday. Absolutely amazing! The craziest part was the fact there was 6 inches of snow on the ground. Its tough to picture the "desert" with snow, but it happens...I'll upload pictures of the trip tonight.

Overall the trip was good, quick, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I think there is a reason that I live 6 hours from any family...family in crazy! We did get to spend more time getting to know James' girlfriend, Misty. They are spending over two weeks there, luckily for them they are going around seeing all the sights...Sedona...Grand Canyon...possibly Mexico.

If you've ever worked in a restaurant the following blog is addictive...

Playoffs?!?

So Saturday, Mizzou gets stomped by OU and on Sunday the BCS bowls decide to crap on them as well!! Illinois and Kansas get spots in the big bowls while Mizzou is left out in the cold...well so to speak, they still get the Cotton Bowl vs. the run-heavy Ar-Kansas.
I doubt that a playoff system would have helped them but going from No. 1 in the country to out of the BCS bowls just sucks for them!!

Randomness - Crime?

Maybe I'm change Thursday to crimes of the week....


Virtual Property theft? What is "theft"? Does it require actual things you can touch? Apparently not, a 17 year-old stole $6000 of virtual furniture and now is facing burglary and hacking charges...

Joke of the week

Not so much a joke but it made me laugh...

More blogging, less time?

I would love to blog more just haven't figured out how to make it more part of my time-wasting-time...

I'm thinking of having a different "theme" for each day of the week and try to fill up as much as possible (most likely with the help of the most wonderful time-waster stumbleupon)


Monday-Sports from the weekend
Tuesday-Image of the Week
Wednesday-Joke of the Week
Thursday-Most random of the week
Friday-Weekend plans
Saturday-Star Gossip of the week? Doubt this will last....
Sunday-Words to live by for the week?

We'll see how this works, may change days as think of better "themes"

Start with Tuesday....

Holiday travel....
