| You Are Blitzen |
 Always in good spirits, you're the reindeer who loves to party down with Santa. Why You're Naughty: You're always blitzed on Christmas Eve, while flying! Why You're Nice: You mix up a mean eggnog martini. |

Blitzed
Chicken of the Sea
| You Are a Mermaid |
 You are a total daydreamer, and people tend to think you're flakier than you actually are. While your head is often in the clouds, you'll always come back to earth to help someone in need. Beyond being a caring person, you are also very intelligent and rational. You understand the connections of the universe better than almost anyone else. |
So True, So True!
| 1985 by Bowling for Soup |
 "Where's the mini-skirt made of snakeskin? And who's the other guy that's singing in Van Halen? When did reality become T.V.? What ever happened to sitcoms, game shows?" You took the bitter with the sweet in 2004 - and kept laughing. |
From a purple thong??
| What Your Underwear Says About You |
 You enjoy wearing nice underwear, even if it comes at a hefty price tag. You're a closet exhibitionist who gets a thrill from being secretly naughty. |
Mild??? Bummer........
| You Are More Mild Than Wild |
 |
True Blue
| Your Heart Is Blue |
 Love is a doing word for you. You know it's love when you treat each other well. You are a giving lover, but you don't give too much. You expect something in return. Your flirting style: Friendly Your lucky first date: Lunch at an outdoor cafe Your dream lover: Is both generous and selfish What you bring to relationships: Loyalty |

Austin City Limits
The top of the capital building.
The Senate and the House of Representatives. Did you know the Texas Capital building is larger than the US Capital building?
The boys!Texas Wildlife and Outdoor Expo!
Petting hermit crabs, crabs, sea cucumbers, starfish, and whatever else that can be touched!
The boys suit up for the kayak!
Eric showing his abilities!!
"Sissy" waiting patiently for her "bubbas".
Lauren makes a friend.
Peace.
It's a dreary, cloudy day.
The breeze is filtered through the window drapes.
They blow in and out from God's breath.
The windchimes play their music to the rhythm.
The occasional clink of metal on metal and the "whir" of the dryer add their drum.
Lauren is taking her nap.
The Cowboys game in the background.
I play a game of Sudoku.
Could it ever be more content than this.
This is what I call bliss.

Sharkin' for Grub
"Dang it! She keeps taking my picture.....
I'm tryin' to keep the floor clean....
The little girl in the chair always shares her food with me....
And this woman keeps flashin' me with her light in that small box.....
Ooops! Another piece of spaghetti fell....gotta get it. I sure do love spaghetti....especially with the meat sauce! Mmmmm......."

I HAVE A BEEF!!!
Man, let me tell you something....I'm so very upset right now! I just want to cry. I just got a very disturbing letter from the Military Star credit card (military use them at the gas stations on post and the PX....pretty much anywhere on post where it's accepted.) Well, the guys can use it overseas also. No, Bobby, I'm not mad at you!
Well, in the letter it states we are responsible for charges that were "not accepted by credit card companies upon processing and are now being billed directly to AAFES." They apologize..yada, yada, yada. Phllllllllllllllllbbbbbbbbbbb! What??? Okay, the charge isn't outrageous...only $25 and change but it's the principle of the matter.
Why is it upsetting? Bobby did buy something.....in KUWAIT!!! In Kuwait......in 2003!!!! Yeah, we are in the year of 2006 and these charges were in 2003. I look at the date of the charges and that was when Bobby was coming home for R&R during the WAR!!!! The freaking WAR! WE WERE STILL AT WAR!!! You would think since it has been such a long time that they would just have absorbed those charges and forgot about it. My God! We had just invaded Iraq in March of 2003 and Bobby was home for a measley few weeks and they can't cover it. Oh, I'll pay it. Yeah, I'll pay it. It just sickens me that they wait 3 freakin' years.
Oh yes! I'll pay....the JERKS!!

What's Your Fitness Personality?
Fierce Competitor
Nothing gets your heart rate pumping like a formidable opponent standing on the other side of a tennis net or basketball court. In fact, you find ways to turn almost any event into a contest ‑- from who can skip a stone the farthest to who can bake the most killer chocolate chip cookies. Pick fast-paced sports that have clear-cut winners and losers, like tennis, squash, one-on-one basketball, boxing and fencing. Team sports like hockey or baseball are also good ‑- just make sure your teammates take the game as seriously as you do.

Why?
I'm sick of psychos! Sick. Sick. SICK!
Why did he have to shoot those young girls? They were innocent. They bothered nobody. They were Amish. They were just young girls.
Is my Lauren safe?
Just last week, girls were separated from their class in Colorado...one was killed.
All I can do is cry for those young girls' family. And yet all I can think about is "what if it was my Lauren?" And I cry even harder.

Just Another Manic Monday
Six o'clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin' Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can't be late
'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made
It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
'Cause that's my funday
My I don't have to runday
It's just another manic Monday
Have to catch an early train
Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an air-o-plane
I still couldn't make it on time
'Cause it takes me so long
Just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there
All of the nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down
Doesn't it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment's down
He tells me in his bedroom voice
C'mon honey, let's go make some noise
Time it goes so fast
When you're having fun

As of this moment, I have a raging headache.
Today, I started off with a 10.4 mile run. Yea! Then, for some reason I checked my schedule, and there I had written down that I had a WIC appointment. Oh joy. So I took the fast route home from walking Matthew to school. I grabbed Eric's Boy Scout uniform and took that with me too. Since I was going on post, I would head to the alteration shop (conveniently across the street from the WIC office) and had them sew a patch on and fix a litte tear on one of his breast pockets. That alone was an ordeal because they don't take checks, I don't carry cash, and they wouldn't take the credit card if the total was under $5 (my total for the sewing was $3.15). Soooo......I walked over to the ATM machine. It was broken. Great. Told the lady I was walking over to the bank which is also right down the road from the WIC office. So we walked over there. The drive-thru ATM was broken. Again, great. So I walked over to the front and luckily that front ATM's were working. So I got my money, walked back to the alteration shop. We had a 20 minute wait for the sewing. Got that done. Then headed over to WIC. What a waste. I knew heading in there that our chances for WIC renewal was coming to an end. Bobby's promotion had us cut from WIC. We make a whopping $50 too much to qualify. $50 freaking dollars! Oh well. I knew the hammer was coming down soon. Now we have to buy milk. LOL! The other stuff I never normally bought anyway. It was just extra. Anyway, then afterward I went to the local HEB and used the very last voucher I had for Lauren. And now we are home. I think I'm having a sugar crash. After eating my lunch, my head is throbbing and I feel like I could sleep for days. That would be nice. Still have more to do. It's Scout Monday. Oh joy.
