I'm not the only one!

I wouldn't want to go to his barbeque. He probably puts extra butter on his rolls.

Video of the Week

So, since I can't seem to get in a groove of blogging, I am gonna try something to make myself commit to this whole thing. I am going to post a "video of the week" every week. This may be funny or just something I find really cool, in which case you will probably not. My friend Michael emailed me the video for my first post.



I totally know how this guy feels. I feel like this about once a week. All part of owning your own business, I guess. It's a couple of minutes long, but the end is so worth it.



Awesome!

My Awesome Weekend

Friday Night my weekend started with a victory. The softball team I am on, Scared Hitless, won our maiden game 23 - 1. Our pitcher Adam pitched a 1 run game, and Brent Glonchak hit two over the fence, with a bit of a, ahem...handicap. You can ask him. It is so nice to be on a good team of any sort. I haven't been on a good team since I was 18. Hmmm. I wonder if I am the problem. Don't feel you have to comment on that.

Saturday was a friends Burger and Karaoke fest at the Platt's. Jamie is now like 130 years old. Eric, Jessie, Jamie, and I were tearin' up the mic on karaoke. While Stephen totally dominated the hippity-hop contest, Randy "fell" short. When we left we had dinner at Mike and Jenny's house and saw Shrek the Third. In a tribute to Mike, "stretchmarks"...enough said.

The best day of these was Sunday. I of course woke up at the butt crack of dawn again, which I love...right. During church, I actually experienced God's presence. It has been a while since that has happened so it was great. After church, we got to go to Fallbrook for Andrew and Amanda San Nicolas's wedding, which was pretty amazing. She didn't fall walking down the aisle or anything, so there was no funny fireworks. We rode with Jerry and Patti Stout. They wanted to go to the Pala Casino after the wedding with the Shewfelt's and Todini's. So, even though I was dead tired, we were totally game b/c I can't stand something happening without me there. The Shewfelts ended up at Pechanga. But, by the time they got there, I won $745 on a nickel slot machine!!!! I never gamble because I always lost when I did. But last night I won $840 in about an hour and a half. I couldn't lose...it was crazy. I turned in five tickets that totalled up to 840 on less than $20. It was awesome! I will probably never gamble again.

A

I chose the letter A to represent Acronym. Acronyms seem to be a huge part of our daily lives now, so I will share a few that I think are...interesting. Comment and let me in on a few others.

KFC - This is only ok because of their new "Chicken Mashed Potato Bowl"

GMA - This stands for Good Morning America. Why the heck do they need an acronym?

VMA's - I never really thought about this, but if it stands alone nobody would even know what it meant.

WTH - I actually like this one...because I am lazy.

OWP - Sadly, I am responsible for this one...but nobody knows what it means anyways. Hint: lube.

TB - For those of you that know my wife...The Birge.

I want more acronyms from y'all. Don't give me the obvious ones like lol or omg. Be creative.

Fat Pig

I was looking online with my friend Brandong and we somehow ran across this article. It talks about a kid who was hunting boars with his dad and killed a pig that was 9ft.4in. long and weighs over 1000 pounds! It looks like a freakin' hippo! Apparently, the guy that killed it was not a guy...it was an 11 year old boy who has been hunting since he was five. He shot the pig 8 times with a .50 caliber revolver. It looks like a freaking grenade would be needed to kill this thing.

Bridget's J.O.B.

As some of you may have heard, in true Jack Black form, Bridget stuck it to the man in her last meeting with her boss!

I was so proud of her because she is so passive, but she totally went off about the amount of her raise considering her promotion. Anyways, her boss came back to her and basically told her the offer for her rais is as stands and will not be adjusted. Due to this, the Birge is now officially looking for a new job.

If anybody knows of anything that is awesome for a hot chick to do, let her or me know. It needs to pay about 400,000 per year. J/K.

Once you pop, you better stop!

This morning we had our huge easter egg hunt and pancake breakfast and it was freaking awesome! Everything went smooth from a facilities point of view and parking was surprisingly easy compared to most other events at EPCC. That is until Bridget showed up. She is always willing to help and is one of the best darn flashlight holders this side of the Pecos. However, things change when she turns her back for one second.

There was a car pulling out of the grass parking lot today and Bridget had stepped away to move some cones when all of a sudden she heard something like a pfffssshhh!!! When she turned around she noticed a car pulling out of the parking lot (where she was stationed) leaking a lot of air out of a tire. Unfortunately, we don't know the people driving the car and they pulled off too fast for her to tell them that they were gonna make it about a hundred feet before their tire was completely flat. I guess there was like a metal spike or something sticking up out of the ground that they ran over and the rest is history.

So, just when it seemed like the Easter Egg Hunt was smooth as lama's spit we had a casualty of the rubber sort. If you are reading this blog and got a popped tire at the Egg Hunt, talk to Bridget. She did it on purpose.
