I got my first contact through the site last night. A friend from the past googled my name and found this site. I am pretty revved about it, because the site’s only been up for like 6 or 7 weeks. These web crawlers seem to be getting better over time.
I’ll be out of sync for the next few days… L8r
Category: Stupid Stuff
Just used when something is stupid, but had to be said anyway
It’s a …
I can’t stand driving in the city. All these people driving all over the place, everyone thinking that their destination is more important than mine, and now there’s fewer lanes to drive in because of the stupid Metro Rail.
I saw at least half the people driving were talking on their cell phone, and I saw a lady digging through her purse while on her cell phone going 70 mph in a 55 mph zone.
At least the A/C worked in the car. The A/C in my truck isn’t working, and that would have made it much worse… that and the fact that my truck has a standard transmission.
One thing that made it bearable, was that I wasn’t at work. Work isn’t usually bad, but I’ve been doing a boring job for the past week. So, since I wasn’t at work, it made it a little better.
Our doctor has just moved his office to another building. That office is awesome. The hallway goes around the perimeter of the building, so you can see the city, which actually looks good when you’re not on the road. It was a spectacular view.
The technology that is in an ultrasound machine is actually quite stunning. 5 years ago, when we saw Alaina under the ultrasound, there weren’t quite as many details that you could look at, but this child was absolutely stunning. We got pictures of the hands and fingers, feet and toes, spine, brain, face, ribs, legs, etc. The baby looked like it was licking it’s hand at one point. We could actually see definitive movements.
Then the nurse moved the ultrasound thingy, and it looked as if our baby was mooning us. There, clear as day, were easily recognizable signs of a labia. We’re 95% sure we’re going to name her Christina Lily.
I tried to draw the story out as long as I could, but I can’t concentrate on much right now, so…
Have a good’n!…
Boy or Girl?
We’re supposed to find out today. Everyone keeps asking us what we think it’ll be, and we keep saying that there’s a pretty good chance that it’s either a boy or a girl.
I know it sounds lame, but it’s true. I hate it when people ask me what I want, because I don’t want to feel bad about the fact that I wanted a boy and then found out it was a girl, or vice versa. I want this baby to be healthy. I want this child to have a strong mind. I want this child to follow Christ much more closely than I have. I’ll post something later if we find out anything definitive.
Camping This Weekend
I’m going camping this weekend. We’re taking the youth from church. We’re leaving tomorrow, and will return on Saturday.
I don’t think we’ll do this again until we can stay at least 2 nights, but we should have fun, none the less.
Well, I’ve got to run, so we can get everything ready to go.

Busy
It’s amazing how many different things I seem to get myself involved in.
Some things take hours upon hours of sitting in front of a computer figuring out how to work code (that I have no previous experience with), so I can get a stupid chat program to work on a phpBB2 site. Then there’s other things that people want me to do that may take only 15 minutes to do, and I just can’t (don’t want to) find the time, but reluctantly find the time just before they leave.
My dad always says that when it comes to business, it makes you more valuable to be the “Go-To Guy”. I have learned and practiced that in my professional life for the past few months, and it seems to be what they like about me. I just wish I knew where to draw the line in my personal life, because sometimes I feel like people take advantage of the fact that I have more than average knowledge about all things technical.
Of course, when I say “all things technical”, I am referring to the layman’s viewpoint. I know that I just have an analytical mind that can figure stuff out, and that works in my favor.
It’s kinda like this web site. There are some people out there that think creating and running a site like this is something that is incredibly hard. It might actually be for them. But, I know how to find information, and use mostly precreated code to do all of this. It’s not the “rocket-science” some people think it is.
Anyway, my point is that I am keeping busy with this and my church’s site. We’re looking for a house. I’m also mapping out and planning to install a network at the church. We’re taking the youth to go camping next weekend, and my wife was telling me that we need to spend some more 1 on 1 time with the youth during this summer on days other than “church” days.
I got myself into most of it so I guess I better stop complaining.
High School Reunion
I received an email today from someone I went to high school with asking for snail mail contact information for our 10 year reunion. She got my email address from Hamshire-Fannett.com. I’m not old enough for that, though. It’s only 1 year away.
I’m supposed to have more to brag about before the 10 year reunion comes around, aren’t I? I mean, what else is there to do at these things? I didn’t have a relationship of much meaning at all with 95% of the people in my class. If you’re one of the 5%, then you know who you are, but most of the people I miss from HS are from classes other than my own.
I just don’t have much desire right now to attend the reunion, but I may change how I feel between now and next summer. Who knows, I might have won the lottery by then! I guess right now, the only other reason to attend, other than to see the friends I had in HS, is to show off my beautiful wife and children(1 daughter with another little one on the way right now).
