Witch hunt?
So today, Brian and I were driving home and saw a crow in our front yard, with an obvious broken wing.
Brian wanted to catch it and take it to the Animal Hospital but it was too fast and ended up running up a tree, unfortunately it probably won't live long with a broken wing.
But why this is a witch hunt was because when we chased after it and it climbed the tree, I happened to look on the ground and saw all these witch hats just laying on the ground. What the fk?
Perhaps that crow was just trying to lead us to some creepy cauldron, and was faking the injury!!! Moo hoo hoo ha ha ha!!
Seriously though, I hope that bird's ok, and someone cleans up their creepy closet strewn on the street.

Moved to tears
I tend not to be a person who considers moving moments possible to come from a reality show called "So You Think You Can Dance" but this dance piece tonight by Thyce and danced by Melissa and Ade was so amazing.
You can say what you want but when it's introduced as a dance inspired by Breast Cancer, and it is successfully executed with the pain, trust, giving, anger for the victim and the supporter, it brings back my grandmother and what she went through all back again.
God damn I hate cancer, and I'm utterly in disbelief that I was completely floored and moved to tears with how good that was. Amazing

Long Vacation is winding down
Hello everyone,
All is well in Maryland before the big 4th of July celebration commences. I'm at Cathy's house with her two cats and looking forward to going out today to shop for odd outfits for tomorrow's party, for her though, I will not be engaging the weird outfit.
I did numerous things this visit, but mostly enjoyed relaxing with friends and their friends / family. Had a great time in Illinois with Vicky, Earl, Aaron, Aunt Marge, Gerald Louis, Trish and her family. And a wonderful time with Anderson and her family who were great fun to be around "Keeaiy."
I'm going to take a little bit of time to get the pictures out, because when I'm back the heat will be on at work to find structure in the new environment and figure out what they need from me in my new Mgmt. position.
So for now, thank you and talk soon

The latest
The passing of Natasha Richardson is just jacked up. That kind of stuff freaks me out. My heart goes out to Liam Neeson and Natasha's surviving family.
I got my degree on Monday, seems almost too small considering the years involved, but hey, it is what it is and I'll take it.
Happy belated St. Patrick's Day y'all, I wore my green!

The latest 3/16/09
What's up you ask? a fair amount...moo hoo hoo ha ha ha!
a) Cash turned 1 and he's awesome. He had a wonderful birthday with the family and auntie's, one of them being me. Have a look: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sunshineboz/sets/72157615034312280/
b) Brian and I are re-doing / designing the backyard, it's going to have most of the grass removed due to our California drought, and will have many flagstones, a separated deck type area, and we put in, with the help of mexican brethren at Home Depot, a 1000 lb fountain that sits 6 feet tall. I could go on and on about how heavy it was, but here's an idea. Fountain was in SF, had to pull it from a traditional backyard, through the garage, took 5 people including me to get it onto the truck.
Back in Pittsburg, it took three guys we hired to get it off the truck and set it up. What the?!
c) In hopes to make work easier, we were trying take an "Image" of a laptop since I have to build 23 of them, but it failed and so by hand it it! Great. So much for efficiency.
d) I weigh too much, and the doctor is worried about my thyroid, but not worried enough to do anything about it, so my question is...why the fuck am I needing to see you again, and again?! Fucking Nurse practitioner. I'm fat, no fucking der, if it's my thyroid then get me on something but if it's not for sure my thyroid then just stop bothering me, perhaps I have...oh I don't know...fat genes?!
e) There's a hole in the bucket dear liza, dear liza.

Racing / Family recap
Yo Yo Yo, so I'm back at work after a very fun weekend. It was the weekend that kept on giving. Not just racing, but family visits as well.
Let's start with the races, the Busch / Nationwide series (minors) were crashing all over the place and made for an exciting and long race. I camped with Greg and his son Austin, who made it to the races for the first time...big man now at 13!
The trailers were the usual, but the Tums Racing Simulators and the Sprint area was great, I kept listening to the Tums guy try to lure people in by saying "hey, it's calcium your body needs anyway" in the most hillbilly, over gameshow voice ever.
The big race Sunday was great, except the winner was Kyle Busch, who I am not a fan of. I think the highlights of the race weekend were hearing how my uncle and his friend Max were doing side deals just to score a new Tony Stewart jacket, since he has a new team, but his trailers weren't selling it. Very sneaky, hilarious. And Saturday night, hanging with Michelle A. and Greg and getting so drunk that instead of drinking my beer, I poured it on my sweatshirt...that's when we knew it was time to quit.
Monday I got to hang with Willie, Janie and their girls, which is always great. Only this time, we found an awesome "carny hand" prop to deceive pictures with. It was the funniest damn thing I'd seen in a long time, and what made it great was Janie's smart thinking to capture it with pictures, it was an optical illusion where it looked like I had an "inbred jed" hand, even the neighbors kid thought it was my real hand and said "I was trying not to stare." LOL, I know it's totally immature, but when have you really known me to be mature...really.
So I had a great time. I hope the family did too. This is just a brief summary, but I'll be sure to post the pictures and a link to them from my weblog here.
Thanks to all the family and friends who were in Vegas / Henderson, you guys always make me feel at home! Love ya.

It's that time
I'm headed to the races y'all, in Las Vegas...as I do every year. Never really sure how the weather will be, but will come prepared for severe cold and unseasonable warmth.
I'm going to enjoy going early and staying later, all those years in school I could only come for the races then leave, so no rushing here.
Latest news: PMS'ing, paid off all credit card debt. BAM! You take the good, you take the bad, and then you have whatever.
Fun fact: Taj from the singing group SWV (Sisters With Voices) from the 90s is on Survivor this season. My reaction: WTF.
Y'all take care.

I'm done with school bitches
Eat it, I'm done and the brain drain can begin! TIME FOR AMERICAN IDOL AND OTHER ROTTING SHIT I COULDN'T PARTICIPATE MY TIME TOWARD!!! Actually I don't really give a shit but at least I have options.
I still don't know what I'll do to celebrate locally, the December celebration obviously didn't happen, but I'll figure something out.
I will do the walk after all, but Jeez Louise, it's expensive...I feel like the parent having to fork it over for the kid, only I'm a 35 year old adult and this ain't the gravy train. Fuck it, till next time and a few paychecks later. TOODLES
