Feeling Halloween

Today Is a Cold...
Sunday and I woke up at 530 AM on my day off! I am messing around with the dogs and catching up on blogs and internet stuff! It is like 630 right now and it is still pitch black outside! I think my Halloween costume is going to be the bottom picture on my blog! LOL. Not a whole lot going on this weekend! Got to go to the dump this morning and get my laundry room back under control and then watch football and game 7 of Red Sox-Rays! I think the Red Sox of the last five years might be the most nerve racking, hardest dying bunch of ball players I have ever seen! You can't kill them! The continually come back from down 3-0 or 3-1 with gut wrenching, stomach punch wins and their players have heart! Deer season opens in 13 days and I am pumped to get out there and hunt! I have been debating on my opening day stand and really still haven't decided where I am going to be the first day! I know where I will be opening night- assuming that my normal field has been cut! I am on vacation in less than three weeks and I am looking forward to that! In closing, go Red Sox and go Vikings! If the Vikings beat the Bears today, they will be in first in their division! not bad for how they started out!

NOT A Good Morning

I Woke Up At Normal...
Time and got ready for work and then my STUPID piece of shit car wouldn't start! I FRIGGIN" lost it! I kicked it so hard, I put a huge dent in the side of it and I wanted to put a hammer thru the windshield! Well, I called Joey at work and told him that I was going to be late and told my wife I needed a ride to work. While I was on the phone with Joey, Colleen asked me if I was going to have my car towed and I answered no in a polite, serene tone that couldn't be taken as anything as nice and she replied, "ASSHOLE MUCH?" Well, Joey heard and got a good laugh out of it. Well, I finally got it started and went to work and when work was over, I checked it over- after buying a $120 starter just to be safe. Well, it turned out to be a bad wire- which I fixed in like ten minutes and then I came home to a great turkey dinner, took a shower and now I am chilling out before going to bed. I was just told that I am high maintenance as a husband and that I don't have a heart because I don't care about kids dying over diamonds in Africa! Long story but I am sure there is a poll question coming on it sometime next week. Well, I am completely exhausted so I am off to bed and hoping for a better start to tomorrow then I had today! Night

Got My Way

So, As Usual...
I got my way and got my BBQ, wiffle-ball game and get-together! I had a blast playing wiffle-ball and hanging out and cooking hotdogs on my grill! Everyone seemed to have a great time and the food was excellent as usual! The Vikings won yesterday- BARELY! The worst team in the league and they beat them by 2 points! I worked today and was totally jealous that my wife and kids were home and I was working. Well, my supper is ready so I am going to eat! Later

3PM Sunday

The First Annual Jordan Wiffle Ball Game
My wife says be there at 3 PM for a BBQ, wiffle ball and a few drinks! I can't wait! I am still sick and managed to keep my wife and I up until WAY too late last night with my coughing! Work has been very work-like and on-call has been a cake walk so far! I have been hunting after work every night and have still yet to shoot a bird! I missed a woodcock last night and saw a bull and cow moose tonight! I'm thinking a nice fire Sunday night after wiffle ball and when the sun goes down. I haven't had time to put new batteries in my game camera so I will need to take care of that before Sunday! If you read my blog, then you are pretty much invited to wiffle ball! Should be fun and a good time! Later

Long Week

I Had a Very LONG Week!
I have been sick for almost two weeks now and the stupid thing is still hanging on even though it is on its way out! It really knocked me down! I have my new puppy which completely rules! She is getting used to her new house and getting house broken! Last night was the first night she made it through the night without going in the house which is good! Jerry, Julie, Zack, Nicole and Chris came over for some games and food last night! I had a blast as usual! I need to go to the dump atleast once this morning- probably twice and then finish mowing the lawn. I need to put up the puppy fence as soon as they finish ripping it down at work! On call has been busy but not crazy- which I can deal with! I got a little ticked off last night because I made sure to take care of everything on a service call before I left work and the idiots still called me at 230 AM! I wasn't nice! Not sure why I picked these pictures of Sean and I playing with Power Rangers at Liv's horse show. I will see if Colleen will take some puppy/hunting pictures today and I will post them when they are done. Well, off to see if I can accomplish something today! Later

Wiffle Ball!

OK, I Know...
No one has mentioned the wiffle ball game that is supposed to be Oct 5th! It might be canceled or rescheduled but I would like to do something fun this weekend! I worked 12 straight days, had one day off and now I am on another long streak and have the pager for 4 or the next 5 weeks! Deer season is just around the corner and bird hunting starts tomorrow! I should get up early and go duck hunting tomorrow morning! You know what? I think I will ! I have been sick ever since I left for Florida and I haven't slept all that well this week either! I really need to work out tonight so I am off to throw down a work out and take a shower and then settle in to watch some TV! Sean and I have plans to go bird hunting tomorrow after work and I am sure he hasn't forgot! Well, off to go do something! Night

Sunday

What Are Politics Good For?
Well, in Colleen and I's case, fighting! I don't think we agree on a single thing regarding politics! We have the same views on some things but see them totally differently! In her mind, I am total idiot because the most important view I see in politics is the Second Amendment! Yes- the economy sucks and that is important but I really don't think either candidate for the president is going to solve that in four years! Taxes are also important and I understand enough about business to see the $700 billion bail out is and know what that means! I read an article the other day that says the bail out will cost everyone in America $10,000! Why do I base my vote on one thing? I don't think I can answer that one! I think it has to do with my belief that the ONE thing that scares me more than anything in this world is not being able to protect my family if someone breaks into my house and wants to harm my wife or children! I own a lot of guns! They are all used for legal hunting! I guess you could say the NRA has done a good job of scaring me into believing that certain people are a real threat to me owning firearms! My other biggest fear is the government showing up at my door some day with a list of guns that I legally own telling me to turn them over! Sorry- that isn't happening! THAT is why I do not like or trust liberal democrats! I have seen them pass bans on guns that they characterize as assault weapons when they are not! I have seen them confuse people because people don't know as much about guns as I do! That scares me!
