Rainy Days and Sundays

I love the rain, especially when it is accompanied by lightening and thunder. I was laying in bed this afternoon, just chillin and watchin football. Contemplating a nap. A nice storm rolled through and created an almost perfect Sunday. The only thing that would have made it perfect would have been the temperature outside. It is still hanging around 80 degrees. I would much prefer 60 degrees.

What else did I do today...absolutely nothing. I got up with my dogs this morning at 5:30AM for their breakfast (yes, my dogs get up THAT early. Every. Day.) and did a couple of homework assignments so that I wouldn't have to worry about them later in the day. I watched a couple of TV shows that I had recorded earlier in the week. Most definitely a lazy day.

I'm not really looking forward to getting up tomorrow morning. I think we should have vacation time like the Europeans. I think they get like... six months off of work throughout the year. (It may be less, perhaps more?). Can you imagine? I would take every other month off. How awesome would that be?

Pretty awesome.

Alright, I'm off to watch Dexter and Brotherhood.

Peace out.

Late Night Ramblings

It is not really "late night", but it is late for me. It is 11:22PM on a Friday and I am exhausted. However, there are a few things that are fresh on my mind.

1. We are waiting on the world to change. - Thanks John, we've been waiting since that song was released.

2. Psychology and Economics homework is NOT fun on a Friday night. Especially for F I V E and a half hours. Intellectual ability equals intelligence and the mortgage industry is being a "Debbie downer". Fun. Stuff.

3. I have the cutest dogs ever.

4. Cats suck.

5. It is bed time.

Nighty night.

Ok, so..

Obviously, it has been quite some time since I posted to this blog. Clearly, everything else must be more important. The only reason that I posted to my blog today was because I was going through my blog links via my IE Favorites. I clicked on my blog and noticed that all of the beautiful formatting I had done, was gone. So, I went in and put up this generic bullshit until I decide to dedicate a chunk of my precious time to make it look cool, once again.

Anyway...

Not really. I wonder if the majority of the population is working today. It certainly doesn't feel like it.

I know I'm at work... and it sucks.

Motivation & Renovation

I haven't been the slightest bit motivated to start working on my house. I guess the first thing it takes is money, which I don't have a whole lot of at this point. I'll get there, eventually. I just don't feel like spending a zillion days working down in my basement trying to filter through twenty seven years of junk that I've collected. Bleh.

On the other hand, I *was* motivated to redesign my blog. You likey?

Miss me?

So, you may have thought that I died from heart break becuase my Lady Jayhawks were unable to handle the pressure. Never fear, I'm still here.

Things have been mad crazy lately. Brynn was promoted at work and now she's "Meeting Girl" and constantly in meetings. She leaves early for work and comes home late. We bought a new truck (SUV) so we've been enjoying that quite a bit. I finally got rid of my old Honda Accord. It was quite sad. Right after we got the truck we had a huge hail storm come through and guess what? That's right, hail damage on the new vehicle. We also got quite a bit of hail damage on our house so we had to turn in some claims to the insurance company for the roof, siding and gutters. Fun stuff.

We've been hanging out quite a bit with our good friends R and D. They have a little girl named Ella who is the cutest thing EVER. We baby sit all the time and silently wish she was ours. LOL She looooves airplanes so we took her to the Lawrence Air Field and she got to sit in one. She's such a great kid!

Other than that... we just hang. We're getting ready to do some major renovations to our house so this will probably be the only post anyone sees in a while. I'll try to be better.
