Got pimped into going to the mall. On a Saturday. Stood around for an hour and a half while Mike was getting his hair cut. And it was raining like a sumbitch too. Got back to the car and the baby started crying. Would not stop. So I kind of hated the world for a minute or two. God I loathe the mall.

Working on...

Mike's home. He's been in Vegas for the past ten days or so. It's good to have him back. Sarah and I were getting a little stir crazy cooped up in the apartment with the baby.

Dad's got the drawings for my patent done. But he needs me to get everything else in order. It's a pain in the ass. The forms are complicated and...

here is a list of some obscure movies that i dig as i imagine you have seen most....
robert duvall and richard harris... duh...
Pedro Aldomovar... awesome director... english title is " tie me up, tie me down"

you have probably seen it but if not it is a must...

Haven't gone out much lately with the ice storm and all. Talked to dad for quite a while today. He's having fun with the squirrels back home. Patching holes in the attic. And taping up chewed wires. I can see why he would want to kill them. But I like the fuzzy rascals.

The mookster's getting married this March. I'm gonna be there, of course....

i would make up some business cards and some small samples of your scripts to hand out to the honeys... wink a lot of those tennessee girls are lookin to go to hollywood i would imagine... ooo aaa

it wouldn't hurt to put your arm in a sling and hold that baby with the other arm and the ladies will flock to the sensitive man... biggrin

Been sick here lately. Sick of the physical kind. Sat in the ER until 4 am a few days ago. Baby had an upper GI infection. He's better now. And Sarah and I are feeling better. That's a good thing.

Been trying to get an idea patented. A million dollar idea. I was telling mom about it over the phone. She said, "I thought you...

Christmas was weird. There were a shit-ton of people in Sarah's grandma's house. Close to twenty all day, every day. I skipped supper one night just to get some alone time. Alone time with the baby in the other room. I think most of Sarah's family didn't like me. No big deal. I'm an asshole. So I'm used to that. frown

Didn't get much for Christmas....

Buck up little soldier for it's a brand new year and I have every intention of kicking some serious ass this year and if you don't keep up I will rain down on you or reign down on you. Either way it won't be pretty. wink ooo aaa

Still in Texas. Christmas in Arizona. Driving down Thursday. All Sarah's family. Gonna be weird. Her sister will be there. Maybe I can charm her a little bit. Move up from noxious to tolerable in her eyes. Those coal black eyes of hers. smile

Nah. She's nice. I just get nervous around her. I try too hard. End up looking like a giant, trembling ass. She's...

I see old habits die hard. Seriously, all you do with the kid and Sarah can't hook you up or at least talk you up. Keep it in the family is my motto. wink Wait... that doesn't sound too good does it. Look at that, I went all Tennessee on ya for a second. biggrin Ouch.... That is unfair. I apologize. I actually went all West Virginia. Big difference. Well, a difference at least. ooo aaa Things must be pretty hectic judging by your lack of sg time. Hope you are least getting some good material out of your adventures. Later.

We made it to Texas. Trying to find an apartment. Although I don't know how long I'm gonna be sticking around. I don't wanna leave Sarah alone with the baby while Mike's in weapon school. That would suck for her. 'Cause the Air Force is gonna be flogging Mike like a mule for the next six months. We'll have to see. We brought my boat...

Got pissed on by the baby today. Sarah got hosed twice. The little shit monkey grins after he does it. Gonna be busy the next few days. Gotta get ready to move everything down to Texas. Gonna spend Christmas in Arizona more than likely. I wanna see the petrified forest. And maybe Mesa Verde. And Big Bend. Probably won't make it to the "big ditch"....

I'm studying hard on whether I oughta catch a bus to Denver to pitch my commercial idea. I don't know if they're looking for funny ideas or not. I'll yap with the old man about it. See what his wrinkly ass thinks. We both think the idea is mighty funny. But what the hell do we know.

I hate the basement. We're hanging doors tomorrow....

We primed and textured the basement today. I've never had so much fun in my life. Tomorrow we paint.

Had to babysit tonight while Mike and Sarah attended a Christmas party. Six hours. And little buddy had a fever too. He slept for twenty minutes. We cried the rest of the time. I had to babysit his little ass for four hours earlier this week....

We got back last night. The trip up was alright. Spent the night at the Academy in Colorado Springs. We went to Rocky Mountain National Park the next day. Sarah and I had never been. Mike spent 5 years in the Springs so he's been several times. Most of the roads were closed but it was mighty pretty. We had fun. The change in altitude...

I don't have HBO but my brother is all over Deadwood. I always wanted to see Rome. Is it any good. I probably should spring an extra $15 a month for it. Any luck with the ladies on your adventures. Chicks dig puppies and babies ya know. wink

Going back to South Dakota in the morning. Or today, I guess. I held the baby past midnight. He slept all day so he's not tired at the moment.

I got to talk to my little sister on the phone today. That was fun. She spent Thanksgiving with the folks at the Blanche house. Dad wants me back down there. More sheetrock work. It's not...
