Sometimes I wish I had a Corvette.

The car is simply amazing with tons of horsepower and awesome looks.  I found this site with a huge amount of Corvette accessories. They have pretty much anything you would want to add to your Corvette.  One of the first things I would do is to add these awesome glow gauges.  They look so cool.  Then I would follow it up with some special corvette seat covers and a complete car cover.

They have so many accessories it’s unreal.  Everything from floor mats, front end bra’s to custom head lights or tail lights.  Need better exhaust or some new wheels? Check them out and boost up your Corvette.  Want some flair?  They have some really awesome body kits you can add, or just stylize yourself with some Corvette apparel.

Like I said, if I owned a Corvette this is the site I would frequent and I’m sure they would get all my money to trick out my Corvette.

The other day I was talking to my cousin who lives in Vegas (She moved there for a teacher job) and we talked about how fun it would be to fly out there and visit her.  If we are lucky we only get to see each other maybe 1 time per year.  However the drawback is the cost of the flights.  We thought about just staying with her in her apartment but Leslie never really has experienced Vegas like I have.  So if we go I think we will check out the new las vegas hotels.

The last time I was there was years ago, probably at least 8 I would say, except to connect at the airport (where I won $100, lol).  There have been quite a few new hotels that have popped up since then and I would love to go check them out.  And it is such a huge place we better take some walking shoes too.  I think I will start planning a little trip maybe this winter or spring.

Last Friday night my good friend invited me to Texas A&M Coaches Night in Dallas at Fair Park.  Now for those who don’t know me too well, I’m really an Oklahoma Sooners fan, but on occassion I will go to Texas A&M events with my good friend.  When we got there, people were just pouring in.  I didn’t think that this event would really be as big as it was.  I think the count hit about 1800.  They had some good food, although I could only eat some of the sliced beef without the sauce, but it was still good.

We ate and then we checked out the silent auction.  This is where we got into trouble.

Let me give you a background on this trouble.  Last year both of our wives went to an auction and ended up spending $600 ($300 each) on a bunch of items, so they warned us not to do any auction things.  We laughed!  So of course while we were walking around we saw a couple cool things to put a silent bid down on.

Then the party started and we listened to some speeches from people, and a retired coach and then this years new coach, Mike Sherman.  He carried on a little too much but not all that bad.  Once the talks were over we had 15 minutes to check out the auction items and get our final write in bids before time expired.  Uh OH!  The auction ended and we ended up winning both the items..  lol  I don’t think the wives will be too happy.

So you ask what did we win?

First before I get to that, I made a little side bet with my friend.  I told him after the initial offer that if we won this prize I would actually go out and buy a Texas A&M polo shirt and wear it to this event, if we won!

Well let me tell you that I need to start shopping.

Our first item we won was a suite at Lone Star Park (Horse Racing) for up to 25 people.  YEAH!  This will be really fun and it’s something that both our families enjoy.

Second prize (What I am buying the shirt for) Round trip charter airfare, and 2 tickets to the Iowa State Football game in October.  WOW..  This will be so much fun.!!  I’m actually pretty excited about this.  I’m not sure on the details of this one yet, but I would assume we would fly up, head to the game and then fly home the same day.

So overall Friday night was pretty fun and the auction was for a good cause.

Let football season begin!

There are times when I love going grocery shopping and then there are times it’s not really fun!  I probably should classify that as a drag, boring or potential time waster. But it’s a necessary thing to do.  We all need groceries, toiletries, food, etc. unless you are extremely wealthy and can afford someone to do the shopping for you.  I for one am not that wealthy.  What I’m trying to say is that at times I love to shop.

Part of the reason I like to shop is that most grocery stores keep the same general layout.  Some change little things but for the most part they stay the same, which makes it easier to memorize where everything is.  Our grocery store is this way.  The only thing that has changed in the last 2 years is that they removed the photo area.  (Guess it wasn’t making money)  For instance our grocery store.  You walk in the right side (the best side) and you have Soaps and makeup, medicines, acne creams, vitamins, toilet paper, tooth brushes, then along the back and far side you have milk, eggs, meats and cheeses then you get to the veggies.  Then all of the other boxed goods are all on the inside aisles.  (I’m sure you can figure out whats left with me itemizing it :)  )  This makes it fun as I know where almost “everything” is.

Do you like to go grocery shopping?

So Friday night started off pretty good, we met up with some friends for dinner for  my wife’s birthday.  After that we went back to there place to see their new puppy.  They have a 9 week old doberman puppy.  They my friend busted out some 80’s guitar hero.  First i must say I’m not very good at all, but I actually made it through some songs on easy (of course).  So that was a lot fun and then it was 10:15p already so we took off and headed home.

Saturday came way too early and I was off to soccer practice.  Let me tell you how hot it really was.  After 2 hours I was done.  I was over heated, hot, and not feeling well.  Yet we still had another hour left.  Ugh.. After practice I jammed home in my SUV which the A/C wasn’t working so that was fun.  Pretty much the rest of the day was useless from heat exhaustion.

Today after church we came home and got ready and headed over to our friends house for a pool party.  This was our first time over since they had their pool built.  We swam a couple of times and then we grilled out some hamburger and hot dogs.  It was a lot of fun.  Sun, yep got plenty of that too, but didn’t burn that bad.  lol

Now just getting ready for another busy work week and watching some TV.

Maybe for some, but with this killer sinus infection it’s not such a happy Monday for me. I think I got like 3-4 hours of sleep last night and that is after 4 hours of waking up every 30 minutes. On top of that my wife got some bug or food poisoning as she spent ALL night throwing up. So to sum it up, no happy Monday here.

But look at the bright side, it’s supposed to be an unseasonably 95-96 today so we can all sweat.

I would much rather be sleeping than at work, let me tell you that much…

Hope your Monday is going better…? !! ?

Maybe this will work: ? — ?

Worth a shot…

UPDATE: Updated the Master List (6-1-08)

So today I have been thinking back to the childhood. Trying to remember all the different toys I would play with. After I got a list all nailed down, I think my favorite was… well I can’t say I just had one favorite. I had a few that I loved to play with. Primarily Lego’s was the big thing for me back then. Mom and Dad would but me Lego’s at any chance they would get and I could sit and create things for hours. Of course all the cool one’s come out after I’m too old to be playing with them. If fact somewhere, either at our house or my parents, I still have 90% of my Lego’s.

The other fun thing was cars. I used to make race tracks and just pretend away with garages, fixing them, etc. Oh the hours of fun that was had. Of course as I grew up things changed and what I played with also changed, but I don’t ever think I lost the love for Lego’s. I still catch myself looking at the next greatest thing they come out with and it takes me right back to being a child.

What kind of toys did you grow up loving or playing with that you would consider being your number 1 or number 2?

So Monday I took my little brother (Big Brothers, Big Sisters) to the Zoo. I haven’t been in a couple of years and they have been advertising that they now had penguins again and this new exhibit for them. Lets just say that I wasn’t really impressed. It was cool to see the penguins but it is really nothing like the penguins exhibit at the Dallas World Aquarium.

Ok so we got to see some really cool animals. That’s one reason I like to go to the zoo. Of course some of the animals just like to sit or sleep. Then again it was close to 93 out. The coyotes and the mountain lions were all taking morning naps. The Elephants were pretty active. The Hippos barely came out of the water. (I wonder how long they can hold there breath) The Apes and Monkeys are always fun to watch.

Overall it was hot and humid but a fun day none the less..
