Can You Picture Me Eating A Salad?

And now for the weekend update. First I have to say Yea Steelers. I say this even though I am a Cowboys Fan. I went for the Steelers since my mom is from Pittsburgh, although my aunt is from Seattle so I was a little torn. On Friday I went to Irving and jammed with some musicians at a practice studio. Basically, you bring your guitar, pay 10 bucks and can play all night on their professional equipment as loud as you want. Occasionally a drunk guy will come in and start playing with you. I got a lot of good compliments, someone wanted to know my name so if I became a famous guitarist he would know me. Considering I am not playing out right now, that will be hard to do. But last week I jammed on Monday, Tuesday and Friday. I had bible study on Wednesday and guys night on Thursday. Saturday I went to the Cavanaugh flight museum and looked at all of the old WWII airplanes with my girlfriend. Then we went to dinner at another couples place. Then we went to the Galleria and went ice skating. I am proud to announce I did not fall once. However, I scooted along at 2 MPH. I was scared of falling so I hung onto her wrist. I think I ended up doing 10 laps around the rink and then sat out and watched her skate. The rest of my class was there so we all socialized. Sunday we went to feed the homeless, but this time things were different. They weren't there. Something has happened to homeless in Dallas and we are trying to track them all down. The city passed an ordinance that says you can't sleep in a public place and they also made us sign up for a time to come and feed at one location. We used to go under bridges and near missions to feed and now the law says we can only do it the one place. That one place though, which used to have 300 people now has 20. So where did they all go? It kinda freaked us out, like they were taken somewhere. We had 360 sandwiches made and I don't even know what we are going to do with them. Anyways, I got home, watched the Superbowl and am now getting ready for the week. I have a feeling this will be a much slower week. I think I might start working out again. This hypnosis thing is actually working. It is unbelievable. I had a carrot on Tuesday and tomatoes on Thursday and Friday and even took a bite of lettuce on Saturday night. I wonder if I could make a salad of carrots, tomatoes and lettuce? That would be freaky. Considering I am 30 and have never had a salad. However I did cook cheeseburgers tonight for the Super Bowl, but they were the lean meat burgers, so they weren't as tasty. I guess even though I can eat vegetables, the good stuff ain't vegetables. And that's all I got to say about that.

Thought of the Week
Navin R. Johnson: The new phone book's here! The new phone book's here! This is the kind of spontaneous publicity I need! My name in print! That really makes somebody! Things are going to start happening to me now.

OK.. It is Thursday Feb. 9th.. Benz UPDATE... I have been off of work since last Tuesday. My wife did end up having a miscarriage and so we lost the baby.. I am back at work now (today is the first day back). It has been a rough ride this last month, but I'm sure it'll all work out in the end somehow. Sorry I wasn't able to make the Super Bowl party, I would have liked to attend, but Sunday was the main day of the miscarriage and as the wife decided to let things pass naturally versus having a DNC it was a very traumatic event.

I hope everyone else is doing well and have had a great couple of weeks.. Hope to see ya'll soon...
