If all goes right I should get a decent nights sleep tonight! I can't wait.

If work was fun then there would be no need to call it work, but does it have to be so dang hard?

If anyone ever thinks about attempting it... grouting walls for six hours when you haven't done a lot of grout in the near past really kills your hands, a lot

Anyway... three more days and then I get a paycheck and more important, I get to sleep

Last saturday I got to drive this gorgeous car

It is a 1965 Mustang. I drove it all day saturday, mainly to give a bunch little kids a ride in it. Lots of fun 

So on Saturday I got to drive a 1935 Chevy. Not only did I get to drive it though... I got paid to drive it. It was lots of fun. I was chauffeuring a bride and groom from their wedding to their reception... Lots of fun. Except for the upholstry and the paint the car is entierally original, straight six, floor start, floor stick with the original H.

so on friday afternoon I went to the DMV and after waiting an hour and a half I got a new license with a motorcycle endorsement on it! I then proceded Ken's house where I picked up his little 400cc bike for the weekend (I left him my mustang in exchange for his generosity). Once I picked it up I took it out on the road, this being the first time that I have ever had a bike on the road I was being extra careful... I drove around town for about two hours, it was great! Yesterday I took all sorts of backroads to Woodbury and back and ended up logging over one hundred miles on some really fun and gorgeous roads. Sadly today is the last day that I have the bike, Ken is coming to get it first thing in the morning. Time to start shopping for my own.

my mistake... Extreme Makeover Home Edition is at 7 tommorrow... not 8

The air date for the Extreme Makeover Home Edition that I worked on is October 8th on ABC, I believe that it is at 8pm

I'm down in Cleveland visiting people at Lee this weekend. It has been a blast. So far what we have done: a couple of hours playing raquetball, a short game(ish) of tennis, lots of DDR (at which I suck, the other guys fly on that thing), and in the middle of the night last night we went out and played tackle tag and smear the queer in the rain, on grass that was slick enough to slide a good distance on. It was awesome, I tackled quite a few of the larger guys out there (you just have to hit them right....). The smear the queer game is where there is a ball (we used a knotted up t-shirt), the object is to have the ball, everyone else tries to tackle the guy with the ball. Needless to say, I probably had the ball more times (five) as well as longer than anyone else... it was fun

yeah... it's been a little while. Been keeping busy with school, work,
and church. School is going good so far, easy semester. Work is busy as
always. I posted some pics of this years parade house (finally) we won Peoples Choice Award for it end of July. Dad, Isaiah, and I pulled the engine on our '53 Ford
This was the last year that Ford made flatheads, it is a V8 and will look absolutely gorgeous when we are done with her. We are getting ready for our second Judgement ever at church. It is going
to be way cooler than last year, everyone who reads this should come.
It is going to be at the end of October, the dates are already set but
I do not have them in front of me... that's all for now

WAS AWESOME! especially the mosh pit. It wasn't an all out fist swinging mosh but it was some deffinite major body impact... it was great. Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace are awesome bands

Haven't updated in a few days. Since my last update... the rest of my family arrived. We have gone to the beach twice, Went shopping on the boardwalk. We went on a whale watch and saw a pod of thirty to forty dolphins that were jumping all over the place, and yesterday we went sailing on a fifty footer... I had the helm for most of the trip so that was very cool. Raining today, but there is no room to complain since this is the first bad weather that we have gotton since J&J got here three weeks ago. Got my flight for the trip back, I should be back in the boro somtime thursday night. Once I get home life gets busy again. I have to move into my new apartment, catch up on work, and then MTSU starts on the 28th. Life...

beach today... took the skimboard, still remember how to use it so that was good. Ran on the beach again... seven minutes straight then on and off for the way back. It was very cloudy this afternoon, that along with the wind made it a cold day on the beach causing an early return to the house. Made some good progress on Metroid Prime (gamecube). That is pretty much today in NH

Went ice skating yesterday morning, Shanon skated circles around me (as usuall). After skating we went to the beach.. it was a wee bit chilly so I was not in the water too much, went running on the beach... I ran for about twenty minutes, I think my calves are going to fall off soon they hurt so bad :-P. Today Shanon and I took J&J to the water park.. Lots of fun there. Grandpa and I went to the Galley Hatch for steak tonight... ohhh, it was awesome, slow roasted for three or four days to a juicy medium rare that practicaly melted in my mouth... ohh it was good. Took J&J to ice cream afterwards, then movie, now here in front of the comp... yep, that is my life in NH so far.

Today was nice... woke up and surfed the internet while waiting for my cousin to wake up. Once she woke up we took a three mile run with their dog. Went to the beach... made a sand castle, played in the freezing water some, read my book, and surprisingly got a little bit of sunburn. Once arriving at my Grandparents house I then proceded off to get some sandals and sunglasses. Lasagana for dinner and then more internet (now). Nice to relax and not have to be somewhere at any certain time.

So after many busy days and limited internet access I can now update... I am in New Hampshire, where I will be for the next couple of weeks. I arrived about four hours ago and am staying at my Aunts house tonight. After everything that I have had going on this summer this should be a very good break for me.

I am about to head off to work. Another great weekend. Saturday after working some I went out to the house for Joshua and Jonathan's birthday party, had fun out there, I talked with Dad for a while, played Need for Speed on the gamecube, went swimming in the pool, and watched most of The Last Samurai. Sunday after playing bass for church we took the boat out again, it was awesome, I went skiing, kneeboarding, tubing, and wakeboarding. We had a full boat which made the wake absolutly great, I got more air on skis than I have ever gotten before. It was lots of fun. I will have a few pics later.

So... a very eventful weekend and not much time to write about it. Awesome holiday weekend. After a long week of trim and tile Havan, Linda, and I went waterskiing on saturday, Sunday a group of us went to see X-3, and then I was going to work on monday but Havan offered to go dirtbiking... yeah, no work on monday, dirtbiking was awesome. We went biking on one of Mr Tuckers and Mr. Montgomerys farm investments. The Montgomery's had a whole bunch of bikes and people to go, they loaned Havan and I each a bike to use... it was great. Met a fellow phuser while there Chelsey Montgomery. Been working every day since... ready for this weekend of fun and rest. There are more details as to the weekend but my time is limited so that is all that you get here, for more in depth give me a call. Hope everyone is having a fantastic summer.

For those of you celebrating this Sunday...do it with all your heart. You could never fathom how special she is till it is too late. Your friends can wait, there is no need to rush the day. This is the day set aside, one day in 365, spend it if you can with your mom and give to her all that you can. She deserves so much more. Don't wait, you never know if you will have another year, or even another day.

I wish that I could....

I was at sports com tonight giving swim tests for three hours. Three hours spent in barefeet on concrete was not my best idea ever. I also had to yell most of the time so that the kids could hear me while they were swimming so I wouldn't be surprised if I am hoarse tommorrow. It is always intereasting to try and guess which kids will pass and which won't before they get in the water, you would be surprised quite often of who actually passes and who doesn't.
I am frustrated that adults won't listen to me when I tell them how to do stuff correctly. I had two scoutmasters who did the rest of the test fine but couldn't float. When I would try to explain how to do it right they would just brush me off. I wouldn't let either of them pass because they couldn't finish. Mr. Tucker went and worked with one of them afterwards on it. He told him exactly what I had told him to do and he was able to finish then.
Frustrating.
Havan was there with me giving tests, he is back in town...fun stuff. We went to Mellow Mushroom afterwards and are going to go play raquetball tommorrow. Havan is da bomb...lol
Other than that my life is filled with more and more work...should have more than enough of it this summer.

P.S. Siegel's West Side Story is good...go see it

I am DONE.

100% and completly DONE

No more for the rest of the summer

oh what joy

   Yup prom was fun. Started the day out with a trip to franklin to watch Fine Arts. After that I brought Linda home and picked up the hummer. Had a couple of hours before I had to pick Linda up so I played Need for Speed Most Wanted for a while. I was early to pick Linda up so I stopped at Michael's and got some pics with her (those pics should be coming later). After picking Linda up we met my brother Jeff and his wife Anady at Linda's friend Amanda's house where we got our pics taken by Anady.
This one is my favorite


 From there Linda, Amanda, Brent, and I went and met some more of Linda's friends at the Aquarium in Opry Mills for dinner.

 After dinner was prom where there was a whole lot of dancing, not exactly my style but I had fun watching Linda and her friends and their crazy moves...lol

After prom I took Linda home where we changed and then headed to Siegel High for after prom. They had a Vegas gambling theme. We hung out there till the prze auction thing which we stayed for half of before I took Linda home. Lots of fun.

Prom last night...lots of fun. Linda was absolutely gorgeous. The Hummer was nice. We went to the Aquarium at Opry Mills for dinner. Then prom. Then after prom. Only got one hour of sleep before I had to go and play bass for church. Will post more details when I get my pictures and some sleep.

I'm debating on bleaching my hair again...any opinions? Of course you have opinions but will you verbalize them to me please?

To bleach or not to bleach?

    When you change a tire be sure to tighten it REALLY GOOD. Otherwise the holes in the rim will get bigger and bigger till the rim just comes off over top of the lugs. Not fun at all. Especially when you have a car on the trailer that the tire fell off of.
    I think that I missed the flag football sign ups. I thought that they would be after arena football, but the games apparently have already started. Bummer.
    Trilogy practice tonight and tomorrow night. Everyone should come see this last one. It is on sunday at 8:30am, 11am, and 6pm
    For those who were wondering this is Mr. Green

I had practice for the easter trilogy part II last night and today. Seeing as how neither Pastor Tommy nor Mr. Cohl were there I had to try to run sound by myself. Very difficult for mic changes. Also have some very exact timing cues one right after the other that are difficult. But I should have help tommorrow and it should be great. Everyone should come. 8:30 am, 11am, and  6pm.

Hooper, Jeremy, and I LAN'd some tonight. UT2004 and F.E.A.R.= lots of fun.
