Let Them Eat Cake....and Blog About It!



If someone says they're a true Auburn fan and says they'll pull for Alabama except when they play Auburn, or if someone says they're a true Alabama fan and they'll pull for Auburn except when they play Alabama, then they'll lie about other things too.

Tuesday Ramblings

woke up early and caught the red eye to new york. I slept the entire flight.

i had to meet with one of our framing subcontractors today, talk about a headache. to start with, you should know that all subcontractors are liars but none more than a framer. i hope tomorrow goes better and that i dont wind up running folks off the project.

other than dealing with the ultimate fibbers, i have had a great day. the weather is beautiful. I think the temperature got up to 70 degrees, nice.

i've had dinner and spent my time on the old treadmill and find myself watching espn-u and reading about football, auburn primarily. i could be doing worse things i imagine.

i miss my wife and little boy. he is a freaking amazing kid by the way. Anyway, they are at my in-laws. They frequently stay at her parents when i travel and i thought about my father in-law.

he likes to watch Meerkat Manor. DW was telling me about a funny conversation they had the other day when she got there. i wrote a blog a few months ago about them watching that show.

Flowers was the mother/head of that tribe of Meerkats. She was biten by a snake on the head. Aparently if the meerkat had been struck anywhere on the body save for the head blow, she could have recovered. As it is she died and another one of the females took over.

While they were out hunting, insects took over their dwellings. Yeah i know, it sounds horrible, right? All Mr.K could manage to say was that if Flowers were still alive, she wouldnt have let it happen.

i guess you had to have heard it, but we found it to be quite funny. he is like that, a dry humor type of guy and he loved Flowers. She got down to business and handled every situation with an iron fisted grace.

Theres not a whole heck of a lot going on as i type this at a quarter past nine in p.m.

The only headlines that stick out in today's news is that Putin is trying to put the smack down in the Caspian Sea region as it concerns oil, iran and any third power country (U.S.) and that Ellen Degeneres has been sobbing about some dog she gave away that was confiscated.

I did have an nice conversation with a pastor that works as a plumber on our projects, a delightful fellow. We discussed spiritual things obviously and i was pleased to find that we shared the same views on various topics.

I am looking forward to flying home thursday night. On friday, the wife and I are going to the comedy club to see the illustrious SinBad or Sinbad depending on where you hail.

Let it ride easy down the road.

i wanna see you tonight dancing in the endless moonlight.

Let it rock me in the arms of angels. Let it ride, Let it roll.

Love,

R
