The Trojans lost in OT. It sucks. Wheat played his last game as a senior. He fouled out in the 3rd quarter, so he didn't play much at all. He was pretty bummed, but his girlfriend drove down from college to surprise him. He was thrilled. Her face lights up when she sees him and vice-versa. Oh, to be young and in love. I found out that Wheat is going out for track. He hasn't run track since the 7th grade and he only made it a few practices before he decided it wasn't for him. I'll have to let you know how that goes. I love track but my sister would rather watch paint dry!
Work was okay today. Nat was sick - along with half the office - so it's been pretty quiet. I'm checked out for the day, so I think I'll leave here pretty quick. I need to run a couple errands and then it's back down home to judge district speech tomorrow. I'm a little nervous about judging, but I'm sure it will be okay.
I'm taking my youngest nephew (Jakey) and my niece (Peanut) out for supper tonight. Jakey was bummed that he didn't get to go to the concert Monday night when Wheat and Jordy did. It will be fun.
I've been planning my exercises in for the weekend. I'm feel fatter than normal, so I need to do something about it. I'll let you know how it goes.
So dh and I watch LOST. Dude - I can't wait to see how it is going to end. Last night was one of the best yet. Although I still have to put up with dh not remembering what happened last year. "It was a long time ago - who will remember that?" is always his answer. It makes me laugh.
Who would have guessed that Ryan Newman would have won the big race last weekend? I was excited for him. (I talk about him like I know him). We'll see how the race goes this weekend. And what is up with it not being the "Busch" race. I will always call it that. I still catch myself saying Winston Cup - man, I am old.
Have a good weekend...

More Basketball
I'll be traveling to yet another basketball game tonight. If my nephew's team wins tonight, they will play Monday night in a sub-state match. Keep your fingers crossed.
My car is in the shop. It's been there since yesterday. It sucks not having a car and I can't drive my summer car because I live in Iowa and it's still winter. It feels like it will be winter FOREVER! I'm tired of the cold! It better be done soon, I have a game to go to.
I won't be able to bowl tonight. That's two weeks in a row I've missed. I hate it. I miss Fun Bobby. If he would be fun at work, I wouldn't miss hanging out with him so much. Oh well, what can do you.
A follow up to the kitty I found a couple days ago. The humane society called yesterday and everyone there has fallen in love with him. I'm not so worried anymore!
My kitty's birthday was yesterday. We've had her for 2 years and she turned 5. We had a cake, hats, balloons, streamers - no, we didn't - I'm just kidding. It would have been fun if we had though.
Work is okay. It's not as busy as it's been so I've been able to get a lot of things done. I'm just waiting for lunch time. Francine is picking me up and we're going somewhere - I'm not sure where, but it will be close.
This week has been a tough one as far as going to the gym. I haven't been all week and I hate it. With basketball games, concerts, lost animals and sick cars, I haven't had a change to go. I did do a little at home last night while watching the reunion show of Project Runway. I can't wait until next week! I can't believe I'm hooked on that show...it's not something that I would usually watch.
My car is done - they just called. Francine is going to pick me up now - we're both hungry and she has some good gossip about people she works with, so I can't wait to hear about that!
Think good thoughts for the game tonight! Go Trojans!!!

It's been a while
It's been a while since my last blog. I think about writing and then I don't. Then I read a blog that inspires me and...well...here I am!
My last one was a downer...and to be honest, anything I would have written would have been worse and I didn't want it down in writing. If I would have, I would have felt better...that will learn me :-)
I should start with the present and work my way back if I want. Last night I saw Bon Jovi. It was awesome and Jon Bon Jovi is hot. He's almost hot enough to break onto my free list. He might be the sixth man and since you can only have five, he'll be ready to move up if I kick someone off :-)
I gave my oldest nephew tickets to the concert for Christmas. His girlfriend was able to go with him, so he took my middle nephew. I went with Francine. We all went to supper before hand. Our tickets weren't together, so I got them to their seats and then went and sat with Francine. I, of course, bought them t-shirts. That's what favorite aunts do...
Work has been rough. Not work wise, but people wise. Last Friday I found out that I hurt a co-workers feelings. I hate that. I didn't realize I did it. I'm part upset and part pissed off. Our whole department jokes around and apparently I took it a little too far. But instead of this co-worker talking to me, he went to my boss and then I got the dreaded email. I wish he would have just told me. I went up to him and apologized. He said it was no big deal and not to worry about it. But of course I am and I will for a while. So, I'm now super employee. I've stopped joking around with people, which everyone finds weird and no one can understand why. I did tell my bf at work and she totally understands where I am coming from. I'm not ignoring anyone, but I've stopped the inappropiate joking which I'm known for. It's tough and I find myself on the verge of saying, "That's what she said" but I'm holding back. It may change in the future, but it's going to take a while. I'm a very fun person, but once someone loses my trust, it's tough to get it back.
Today I was heading to lunch to work out (I joined a gym and have been very faithful in going) when I heard a noise. Turns out it was a kitty. Long story short, I called the local humane society and they came and got him. That would be fine, but the kitty actually bit a co-work (who had been making pizzas) and it drew blood. Now I'm sure he only did it because he was hungry. A bunch of us had been playing with him and he was VERY friendly. Turns out they will hold the kitty for 10 days and then he may have to be put down. I'm very upset with this. I wish I would have done it differently. I should have called the place where I got my Sydney but I wasn't thinking. So now I'm having trouble concentrating on anything!
It's 2nd round of the district playoffs tonight so I'll be traveling to watch Wheat play basketball. If they win, they play Thursday and if they win Thursday, they go to state. Wheat will be 18 on Sunday...that's just plain crazy! He was crowned the "sweetheart king" at the Sweetheart Dance last Saturday night. I'm proud of him.
That's all for now...I'm going to be better about writing...it makes me feel better when I write things down!
