life has been flying by lately. it seems like mandy and i just work and work and before we know it, the weekends are over and we’re going back to work. it’s really not that bad, but we’ve just been crazy busy.
it’s good to see the stars beginning to clean up their game. i think that turco has been taking a lot of heat for loosing the games, but our defense lines really need to start cleaning up their act and trust turcalicious to stop the pucks, that is what we pay him to do. if you’re a dallas stars fan, follow www.twitter.com/dallasstars. it’s normally myself, @neotsn, or @txsarge calling the games, live.
the shield is getting really good. we’re down to about 4 shows left of the series. i’m not sure what’s going to happen. it seems like mandy and i work out some ideas of what the next show will be about, then the show ends and we’re left confused, trying to figure out what’s next. i’ve never seen every single episode of a tv show. i’ve seen most of the simpsons, and a lot of the south parks, but the shield is just an awesome show. now i’m looking for ideas on what show to get caught up in next. i’ve been thinking about renting the soprano’s from netflix for mandy and i to watch start to finish. hmmm.
i’m working again this friday night do do an offline defrag of some of our exchange 2007 databases. hopefully saturday i’ll make it out of the house, unlike this last weekend. i keep feel like i’m getting sick, so i’m not sure if it’s just from staring at a computer for so long or not going out to do things like mandy and i used to. bleh, we’re working on getting back on track.
thanksgiving is coming up soon. mandy’s birthday is even sooner. i cannot believe we’re about to see 2008 say goodbye, but to be honest, i’m looking forward to our cruise coming up in march.

it’s late. i’ve been having a hard time getting to sleep lately. then, when i get to sleep, i tend to wake up around 3 or 4 sneezing and needing a drink. i’ll get up, then sleep in and be late for work. yeah, it sucks, if i’m going to be late to work, i’d at least like to get extra sleep in return…
i leave for london next wednesday. i’ll be gone for a week and a half. most of my time will be spent helping with the office move, relocating several servers, and getting the new internet setup with the new voip system, the isp is bringing in.
work has been going better recently. we’ve finished the first round of pci tasks and now we’re just nailing everything down and getting things lined up to complete our full baseline audit by year end. we’ve got a lot of small projects going on here and there, but things are becoming more manageable with better communication taking place between all the worker ants and the management.
the dogs are good, and mandy and i are doing great. we spent this last weekend with our friends and family, and mandy seems to have gotten a lot of photo edit’s off of her plate. the rest of this month and on into october look pretty busy for us, but we’re looking forward to our cruise next march.
we watched the first episode of the 9th season of the shield tonight. looks like this season is going to be good, but bitter sweet knowing this is the planned final season.
you guys take care.

i did not do a lot over this thanksgiving break.
tuesday was mine and mandy’s anaversary so we had a nice diner out a lone for once and walked around bed bath and beyond talking about ideas of things to register for, for wedding showers and what not. wednesday night, mandy and i took her dad to the hockey game. mandy had given me a brenden morrow jersey for our anaversary so i had to sport it, even though i was so cold.

we spent most of our thanksgiving day at mandy’s parents relaxing. my family went to arkansas and mandy and i decided to stay home to save the money on $3 per gallon gas. after thanksgiving, mandy and i spent some good time relaxing.
i agreed to keep an eye on my sisters dog over the weekend so other than relaxing on the couch at home, i was over at her house playing on the wii, while chonci sat and wondered why i was flaling about like a drunken fool.

today was mandy’s birthday and her and i went by a park in hurst to take some pictures. tonight i round up the boys and nina and we met for diner at on the border. they brought mandy a birthday browney with ice cream that she was unable to enjoy because she is allergic to nuts. (yeah, yeah, i don’t know why she’s with me either.)

i’m sad thinking that i must return to a real week of work tomorow. i have not had a real week of work in the office since before my trip to california. oh well, take care everyone, happy month end. christmas will be upon us soon.

and one pie says to the other.. “excuse me sir pumpkin pie, it’s getting really hot in here.”
without hesitation, the other pie exclaims, “ahhhh! a talking pie!”
