New Jouranl Time!!

A lot has gone on recently, so here is just a short recap of things:

1) I'm not feeling well lately, but it is to be expected. For the last month I've been caring for sick kids at work, some of whom had the swine flu. There is only so long you can sit in front of rooms full of ill people,...

Post-Vacation Journal, now with pictures!!!

So me and JennyLou have been back from our vacation for a few days now. We stayed with her best friend's family in Nebraska and her mom's house in South Dakota. It was one of the most relaxing vacations I've had in a long, long time.

Jen's best friend has 4 great kids, and for someone like me who works...

Not a lot has gone on lately; I've just been working some overtime to earn a little extra cash for vacation.

Me and JennyLou are leaving on Thursday the 14th to head out for about ten days of visiting with her friends and family in Nebraska and South Dakota. In the three years or so since she moved out here, there are still a lot...

So in an effort to get back into shape, I've hopped back on the exercise bike. I haven't exercised at all since playing basketball with my friends last summer when I ruptured my MCL in my arm, so I was worried about how I would feel.

Not bad it turns out.

I did about 20 miles on the bike yesterday, and 40 miles today. My...

Ugh. Just had three impacted teeth removed...and I woke up just as they were finishing the last one. Not feeling so hot right now. I'm starving and I have to wait a bit before I can eat some soup and pudding. I really want a fucking pizza though.

I'm feeling very *meh* with a side of *Groooaan*

But we at least ordered our plane tickets...

Time for a new journal as the the previous one is several weeks old.

My vacation went well, and I met all of my goals for the 9 days off I had:

1) Relax: I had at least 3 days where I slept for 10 hours or more. Very nice.

2) Spend little money: I didn't go anywhere, so that didn't cost me anything, and...

I'm in a bit of pain lately. I have several impacted wisdom teeth that have caused quite a bit of overcrowding and damage recently. I see the dentist tomorrow morning, but that won't be to take care of the main problem, which will require a visit to the oral surgeon. I have worked my way through a large bottle of Ibuprofin in record time

Hey there kids, how goes it?
It's been quiet around here for the last week. But there have been some developments on different fronts:
JennyLou returned back from Nebraska, and we had a nice day just hanging out before she had to start an 8-day stretch of work to make up for the time off that she took.

I have tickets to see the Watchmen...

It's going to be a quiet, relaxing weekend around the old homestead.
JennyLou is in Nebraska for the week visiting with friends and relatives, and I decided to take a long weekend to relax and putter about the house in my pajamas while eating steak and drinking root beer.

Once Jenny is home, the serious wedding planning business is starting. Because we are throwing it...

I'm tired a lot lately, which means it's about time for a vacation soon. I have some vacation time I need to use up soon anyway, so I might take a week off in March to just chill around the house and relax.

I bought a new HDTV for the bedroom yesterday. Hooray to me for finally moving into the 21st century. It makes killing...

Everythings gonna be alright.

I'd like to think the above words are true, Bob was a pretty wise man after all. But sometimes things fall apart, and there is nobody but yourself to blame.
