I miss the glow puck

Picked up a part time job at Dicks Sporting Goods in the golf department. And just joined a local Country Club. Lot's of Golf to be played this year!

Oh, the humanity!

Paul Walker, today, of the Fast and Furious franchise. Automobile accident, dies at age 40.

My dad is awake and was taken off vent tube last night about 11. He ate a little breakfast this morning, and looks really good. Doctors ended up doing a quadruple bypass, and everything went great, no complications with previous spinal injuries. Long recovery ahead, but very happy today.

He has 3 previous stents. This cath showed 1 artery 100%, 2 at 90ish%. He's on bypass right now as of the last update and they are working on the heart now.My biggest worry is his ability to make it through and recover recover. About 7 years ago he had an accident crushing his c-5 and c-6 (broken neck) leaving him a quadriplegic (incomplete), with Limited strength and paralysis in all limbs. Edit: good news, he's off bypass now.

My Father's heart cath procedure didn't go very well earlier in the week. Triple bypass surgery scheduled for 730am tomorrow.

Apple might disagree.

Set up spare room as an office. Officially started working from home today. No more long drives to and from the office. nice to just get up out if bed and log on.

Now that football is here, SCREW YOU TIME WARNER/INSIGHT cable company. the ONLY provider that decided not to sign a deal with the NFL, preventing me from having the RedZone channel. F YOU.

New shins. Unbelievable how good a condition these are in.

^ just saw that on the news. Me and my brother actually had a Hogans heroes marathon last week with some dvd seasons we bought.

After going back and forth in my head for days, I finally decided to accept a new job offer. the hours arent the best, but the money is good, and there is room for advancement, which i dont have currently. While difficult for me to move on from where i am and what im doing now, im excited for the future and this new opportunity. Best part: they really wanted me to come work there, and worked it out so that I will still be going to winterfest as planned!

Spent last night (along with a few hundred dollars) taking my kitten to the emergency vet clinic. Allergic reaction flared up asthma and bronchitis. Poor lil guy is still coughing and breathing is shallow. hopefully these meds get him better.

sewage pipe burst in the basement. Huge mess, a lot of cleaning to do, and a lot of clothes and things im going to have to throw away. ugh

Just got done playing 18 holes at an awesome local golf course. They had a demo day scheduled, so we made our tee time to end right before that started. All the big names were there. Some amazing new clubs out there! But the best thing was the sale that the pro shop had. I walked out the door with a Callaway Diablo Octane tour driver (9.5* with projectX 6.0 shaft), Callaway razrHawk 3 wood, and an Odyssey white ice DART putter. All brand new still in the plastic for $200!. Im very excited to hit these, and blown away by the deals they had!

Spent some time this Father's day weekend building a deck. While that doesnt sound super fun, to be able to do that for, and while hanging out with, my handicapped father was just awesome. A couple uncles from out of town came in and we all hung out and built a 12' x 24' deck with dual walkways/steps around the pool. First time ever actually building something like this. learned a lot, and it came out great. And got some quality time with my dad for fathers day.

I hate everything there is about the university of Kentucky. But most especially I HATE its fans

migraines freaking suck :(

Blazing Saddles now available for instant stream on netflix!

Co-workers who call in sick, and management that repeatedly screws me over to cover that position for the day, when just as many equally capable people are there to do it, but dont feel like it. Good thing i'm there to pick up all the slack so they can sit on their lazy asses all day. It's becoming more common...

My grandmas poodle died today. Not much luck with animals this week...

Having a long haired cat get the squirts
