U wont believe this

A midget drove through a telephone pole and took out 100 feet of fence at our ranch and ended up in their car in the middle of our pasture...all true I swear to God. I so wished I would have been there for this and got pictures. Unfortunately I was not.

I haven't posted lately because I haven't done shit worth posting about. Sure I went out last weekend and had great times both Friday and Saturday night. Sure it was crazy and I have stories such as seeing two fights, Angela threatening a girl, a stripper going on and on about how nice my wife was, and some girl wandering around the afterparty looking for "something" on the floor, she either didn't know or wouldn't tell me what she was looking for. I honestly think she really didn't know what it was. And with all of this, I don't have one decent picture.

This week, started with a personal trainer getting back in shape. I used to do a good job keeping it tight, then marriage and career happened. This led me to letting myself slide. God further illustrated this point to me when I went to meet with some friends for a drink last Thursday night at a little outdoor coffee bar/bar place and I promptly collapsed the old piece of shit lawn chair I was sitting in. Nothing like breaking a chair in front of half a dozen of your friends and 20 strangers to motivate you to get in the gym. I'm going to get it back before next summer so I have started with a trainer three days a week and busting cardio on off days. This dude fucking kills me, not just kinda works me hard, like I feel like I want to kill myself halfway through the workout. When you start at 8 AM for an hour and by 8:10 your wishing it was over looking at the clock, you know its gonna be tough. But he'll definitely get me in shape...or I'll die on the gym floor of a heart attack (this apparently happened to some dude a few weeks ago).

Going to Dallas this weekend, to visit Robert and attend the OU game. To represent Texas, I will be driving the burnt orange Corvette pictured below. I figured why not. I'll bring my camera but I'm sure it'll be the same old "this is the stadium" pics. I doubt wild and crazy will happen since I am attending the game with a cop and his fiance, and a preacher and his wife. Wow I should hang out with these folks every weekend. If the cop cant keep me out of trouble, the preacher can pray for forgiveness for me.

Just another work night

Here are the pics as promised from Thursday night. Apparently I got a little shaky with the camera toward the end of the night as lot of the pics were out of focus. I managed to find a few representative ones for a decent weekday night in the ATX. Started out with dinner at Sullivans Steakhouse with Ryan and his new 61 "Entourage-esque" Lincoln Continental. That car is a freaking boat. Headed over and met up with some people over at Six Lounge and terrorized the DJ, bartender, and Spaghetti Warehouse patrons for a while (thanks to Rod the bartender for not getting mad at me running behind the bar and messing with the cash register, and to the DJ who allowed me to pick pretty much every song for about a ten minute period). Saw Shelly for her birthday evening briefly and said hello and had a drink. After that headed over to Madison, popped bottles half the night and then followed with an afterparty with about ten of us at my place till the wee hours. Good night.

I made Rod the bartender teach me how to ring my own tab up
I kept requesting the same songs over and over from this guy

ACL weekend

This weekend is ACl music fest in Austin. So, I vowed to stay away from downtown. However, I went down there for dinner on Friday night which turned into drinks which turned in to closing the bar down, which turned in to calling in sick on Friday. Layed low last night, going to a hockey game tonight and who knows after. Good pics from Thursday night, some of which cannot be displayed on this blog. However, I'll put the other ones before that up tomorrow. Stay tuned.
