Wanna know why it's been so quiet?

Well I just finished a marathon at work of 161 1/2 hours at work in the past 14 days (thats right folks, that is 81 1/2 hours overtime). It was a little test for myself number one to see if I could do it, second thing is I need some extra spending cash for my trip to Las Vegas which I don't think I will get to go on. Not trying to sound too disappointed but my chances at going are fading fast. We will be going to China hopefully in the next 3-4 months and that is going to land me right in the middle of my trip to Las Vegas. Sorry I know it doesn't sound right, but the wait for China has been unbearable, so the only thing I could do is keep planning my life and when China popped up we would go, well who would have thought that the two would run together. I didn't and now I am over half way paid for the trip to Las Vegas and I have no idea what to do. Do I just back out and disappoint my friend, or do I just keep trucking along paying $13 a week and see what happens? If I quit paying now I think I lose all that money, so I don't know what to do. Will someone please pull out your crystal ball and tell me what to do, I teeter back in forth almost hourly "Just keep paying" no "pull out why you can" WHO KNOWS????????? Anyway I have been keeping busy with work, trying to scratch up a little extra and trying to gets some bills payed off. Just trying to keep myself busy in hopes that everything with this adoption comes together, no matter how disappointed I sound about Vegas, this adopition is my number one priority no matter if I lose all the money I put into the trip. I cannot wait for the day we meet our daughter, nothing can replace that.

What is the DEAL???

What is going on that all of a sudden everyone feels that their lives are so private that they have to password protect their blogs? Has it gotten that bad that you only want a select few viewing your blog? I don't understand, two of my favorite bloggers have all of a sudden password protected their blogs and I really don't understand why. Maybe there is something going on that I haven't heard about yet, but as far as I could tell they were doing a really good job as to not revel their true identity. Who knows. I don't put anything that I don't want people knowing about me on the internet, it's just a place to tell stories and vent every once in a while. Just a bunch of questions and no answers. ????????

The wife says that I am OBSESSED with LAS VEGAS

obsess, obsesses, obsessed, obsessing
1. To occupy someone's thoughts or mind completely, persistently or constantly; to preoccupy or haunt.
Example: She is obsessed by football
Thesaurus: consume, possess, grip, dominate, plague, engross, preoccupy, torment, haunt, nag.(chiefly N Amer)intr2. To think or worry constantly about something.

I thought I would add the definition for a touch of added flare, like it??? Anyhow the wifey here lately has be telling me that I am OBSESSED with going to LAS VEGAS. Well I do find that interesting that she shops like an alcoholic drinks and I don't tell her that she is OBSESSED. I enjoy going to LAS VEGAS and we (My buddy Richard and I) are getting ready to go here in the next couple of months and I just wanted to make sure that I have the spending cash to ensure that I have a good time. Well Faye finds that obsessive and she finds it absolutly ubsurd that I want to take the amount of money that I am planning on taking. I have intentions of taking about $800 - $1000 with me for 4 days in LAS VEGAS and that is for everything, going out, eating, drinking, gambling. I really don't think that this is that bad considering. Just because I talk about going there every once in a while I am obsessed, but the fact that she goes out every weekend and shops is normal behavior.
Now don't get me wrong I do find myself bringing Vegas up quite often, that is because I am excited to go, I find Vegas exciting. I have been to LAS VEGAS twice in my 30 + years on this earth. Now guess who has been to LAS VEGAS more than I have in her 30 + years, you guessed it FAYE!!!! Now who is really obsessed, just because she goes to LAS VEGAS to party, I am the one with the problem, well she gambles too and eats at some of the best resturants which can be just as expensive. We ate at Emeril's at the MGM Grand for lunch one day and paid $80 plus tip for LUNCH, now you want to talk about a waste of money, I would have almost rather flushed it down the toilet, the meal wasn't that good and she agreed. Just trying to figure out who is more obsessed me or her. It could be worse I could be going to LAS VEGAS two or three times a year or going to the gamling establishments that aren't to far away from here. Obsessed I think NOT!!!!.

What in the hell is wrong with MEXICO???

All of a sudden these people want rights, what rights do we have in their country???? They want work rights in this country, well I'll tell you what as soon as every American has a job, then you can come and have what is left. Mister Vincent Fox states that Mexican's do all the jobs blacks won't. Well you know what, weather your black or white until every AMERICAN has a job then you can keep on your side of the line. Sorry things are so bad down there, it's not our fault. The Mexican government also want everyone that has been living here illegally to instantly become AMERICAN citizens, well that is bullshit, should we just give everyone a free pass or just the mexicans. How about we just take down the borders and we extend the United States into Mexico, I'll bet the Mexican population would really appreciate that now wouldn't they. The borders are there to protect our borders and keep those who shouldn't be here out. If you want to live in the United States do it legally, just because your to freaking lazy to do the right thing doesn't me we have to just forgive you for climbing a fence. This doesn't just go for Mexico, this goes for all countries, it's time to close the gates for a while, get ourselves settled in a bit and come up with a fair (and legal) way to do things. Stop sending us your garbage. Patrol your own borders.

Now just hold on now everyone!!!!!

As soon as I find the time to post, I've recently ran into a bunch of things to talk about, so I'm going to try and get them down I just have to find the time. I have been working 12 hour days for the past 6 months and there isn't a lot of time to do this and work on the house.
1. Maurice Clarett (What is this guy thinking)
2. The Miners in West Virginia (RIP)
3. The Buckeyes beating Notre Dame, Texas beating USC (What great games they were.)
These are just some of the things I want to touch on when I have time until then you will just have to settle for this.
