99

99.Almost there.Well, I haven’t been on in a while. I got a new promotion at work, and I have been busy as hell. We also moved the same weekend. Last night I finally got the Internet hooked up. I felt like a true hero after that. It was a bitch, but I prevailed. At first, I was installing the software to get the DSL going. Guess what? That’s right. It would register the modem. I could see it was getting out to the Internet, but it wouldn’t get to the PC. So I call our buddies in India. Finally when I get someone on the phone, my wife decides that she, and the girls are leaving. So little man, and I are there alone. He is in his high chair eating his supper. Actually he is squishing it, throwing it on the phone, and I am trying to talk to someone that can barely speak English, and has a strong accent. I felt like I was going to have to pull all my hair out. Victory was mine, and after talking to two people from our non-cow eating brothers, they finally registered my modem manually. We had access to the free world again. Free to blog and look and naked people. Which I did none of last night. As soon as we had connection I got off there, and played with Lil Man. There was no way he was going to let me surf the Web. So I wasn’t even going to try. We had a blast playing with his planes, and new little basketball goal. I am quite grateful that I was frustrated, and didn’t waste time on the web last night.

All the above was written on the 15th of these month. You can tell by the amount of time in between post, and finishing this post I haven't had much time to post. I finally got my air card from work. So now I will be able to post while riding the train to work. Yes folks I am a commuter now. It is quite relaxing not having to deal with the traffic. It is saving me a lot of money at the time also. Tammy takes me to the train station in the mornings. I park my car at the station by work, and drive it in from there. I have put $20 in gas in two weeks, and it looks like I won't have to put more in for 2 more weeks. The train station is only 3 miles from my work. There are a lot of people riding the train these days. Gas prices are kicking everybodys asses right now.

Well I am going to work on my hundred post. Hopefully I will have it up in the next few days.

Hang in there, and BE COOL.

POST #98 ALMOST 100

We are getting close to the milestone of 100 post. I thought I was there today, but it counts drafts also that I have not published yet. So 2 more to go after today. In my 100Th post I will go over everything from the beginning to the 100Th post. Summarized of course. Stay tuned for the exciting post.

The weekend was pretty good. Worked Friday night, and went out with the boys after work for a couple of hours. Met up with Shumpy and Timmy. It was good to hang out for a little bit, and get caught up on what has been going on. Shumpy just moved into his own apartment. Yes people I said Shumpy has his own place. Not bad for a 36 year old to finally be on his own for the first time. No he hasn't always lived with mommy and daddy (there were times in between though he did), but he has never had his own place with out any roommates. I am proud of him.

Saturday got up and messed around the house. Then we took my mom out for her birthday for lunch. We came home, and put LIl Man down for a nap, and I worked on the wife's car. Then played with Lil Man when he got up. I worked Saturday night.

Sunday we went and watched Zohan. It was pretty funny. You have to like Adam Sandler to like the movie though. I LMAO though. After that I went over to BC's to help him work on the play house/fort he got for his kids. Whoever writes the instruction Manuels for that shit though should be shot. I am pretty mechanical, and those instructions were FUBAR'ed. We got most of it done though. After that we went to eat with the M-I-L. Yes we went to Texas Roadhouse again. You all know me though I am never going to pass up a free meal. My grandparents came over after that to spend some time with us, and chat. It was good to spend time with them.

That is about all for the weekend wrap up. Stay tuned to hit 100.

BE COOL.

I HATE SEX AND THE CITY

No, I didn't go to see it. I work in a Movie Tavern that has a full bar, and restaurant menu. This is my second job. Needless to say, this movie brings out the worst in women. They think because the girls in this movie are all hot and totty, that means they can be royal bitches. The women who have been going to this movie have been showing their asses extremely. I really wanted to punch one of the women last night. Her food did not come out when she expected it to. I told her I would check on it, and she tells me "You better, and hurry up." I don't even let my wife talk to me this way. The only thing that kept me from punching this fat whore out was if I did there would be one less person in the theater to help with these pretentious wanna be New Yorker Bitches. I try like hell not to work this movie. Every woman is on her own tab, and most don't tip worth a shit, if at all. I can not wait until the day we are not showing this fucking movie anymore. This movie is really making me ask the question "Is the money worth working here, and not being able to spend the time with my family?"

Digressing to my next topic. For all you cheap assholes out there. Yes waiters, and waitresses get an hourly wage. A whole $2.13 an hour. They are working for tips. This is where they make their dealing with your needy asses. So yes you need to tip. This is how they make money. So when your tab is $8.98, don't just leave a ten dollar bill. 15% of $9.00 is $1.35. Remember this is what the guy who is bringing your food, and drinks (that you are not watching being prepared) is working for. Don't be a turd, and tip less than 15%. You all work for wages, and waiters work for tips. Nobody does it because they love it, and don't need the money. They have to deal with too many pompous assholes to make that statement true.

Enough ranting for the day.

BE COOL. Death to SATC

LIFE AFTER THE HOLIDAY.

Man it sure was nice having two days off in a row. I didn't have to work at either job Sunday or Monday. It was wonderful spending time with the family, and not having to work either of those two days. Sunday we had a cook out at the house with my family. I even went to Bingo with Tammy. We didn't win shit. So it will be another year before I go to Bingo again. Monday my BIL had a cook out. We played horse shoes, and washers. We had a good time. One of the first times we didn't drink on this holiday. All in all though it was a real good time.

The only thing that sucks is that we didn't go on our canoeing trip this year again. There on some good pics of old trips on Shump's Site. I miss those times. It is just too much for all of us to get together like that with all the kids, and things going on in our life's. We had some wild and crazy times doing that annual trip every year though.

Hope everybody had a good Memorial Day Weekend. Let me know.

BE COOL

Start of the weekend

Worked sucked at my first job yesterday. I just couldn't get motivated. I also fell into the dream world where I thought I was going to get off work early so I could spend sometime with Lil Man. As true as always, you should not plan to get off work early at my main job, because as soon as you do something will happen, and you are stuck at work until the original time you were suppose to get off. We had a customer that was having some testing done next week, and had to get some tests done at our facility before they could go to the test site with a base line on their trucks. Well the first two trucks went as planned, but the last one had problems. The customer is a pretty big customer with other dealers, but not one of ours. We are just the only facility around that can provide some of the tests that needed to be done. Well they were up in a big roar about how the truck had to be done, but we were waiting on some numbers to come back from CAT. There were all kind of people calling, jumping through hoops to get this last truck done. Finally at the last minute we got what we wanted. Actually some people had to come in today to finish it. The morale to the story is don't plan to get off early. Just seize the opprotunity when it comes up, and you might get off early.

Everybody have a good Memorial Day Weekend, and pray for our troops. Especailly for the ones that have fallen so we can have our freedoms.

BE COOL.

BOO HOO

The Stars lost. Oh well, just a few more months and the Cowboys will be playing.

Working these two jobs is killing me. I am tired as shit. Hopefully I won't have to do it too long. I will make it through the summer, but that is about it. The extra money is nice though. I hate the time it takes away from the Lil' Man and me though.

We don't have any big plans for this weekend. Just cooking out at Mom's on Sunday, and then going over to my BIL's Monday.

Quote of the day--"The problem with people who have no vices is that generally you can be pretty sure they're going to have some pretty annoying virtues."

Elizabeth Taylor
British movie actress (1932 - )

This is such a true statement.

Hope everybody has a great weekend.

BE COOL.

GO STARS

The STARS won again Saturday. Makes the series 3-2 Wings favor. I was reading the last time a team came back from a 3-0 deficit was 33 years ago, and the time before that was 33 years. Do you see a pattern here? Let's hope so.

Work went alright this weekend. I didn't make much on Friday night, but Saturday made up for it. It is getting easier every time.

Went, and watched Ironman Sunday with the kids. It was pretty good. The Softball Queen fell asleep during the movie.

Really didn't do much else this weekend. I did get to take an hour long nap with the little one Saturday. I miss naps. He gets to take one every day. Man what a life. Eat, play, sleep, and repeat. He doesn't know how good he has it. He does enjoy it though.

I have to do the front wheel bearings on my Cheapokee tonight (pics coming later). I am going to try and get that done before the Stars start playing, but I might have to listen to it on the radio until I get done.

Hope everybody had a good weekend.

BE COOL.
