The view!


I'll upload a few more, but this is the view from my hotel. It's weird there not more snow, but I guess they are having their heat wave. The 40's and all. Well, I have to get ready to catch my shuttle to the airport, so I'll post more later.

I'm in the Big CO

Well, if you didn't know I get to take pictures of autopsies. It's not the most fun job, but I think it's pretty interesting. Today I flew into Colorado Springs for one of these fun jobs. I was told before hand that this would be the nastiest job as of yet, and they were right. But when it comes down to it, it wasn't so bad, and I'm making a little extra money for coming here. I can't complain. However it's weird to be in a hotel all by myself. Actually Johnny is here to train me, and also the pathologist, but you know what I mean. Anyway, I finally got done, ate some dinner, and now I'm just hangin out, using the free internet access.
I'm sure my sentences are worse than usual so maybe I should go. I'm pretty tired. It's only one hour different here, but all the flying and standing makes tired.
Anyway I hope eveyone is doing good.
Oh have I said how beautiful Colorado is? It is so nice to see mountains again!
Alright, I'm out.

Nice weekend

Although the weather is cold, it's been a pretty great weekend. Katie got to go out Friday with Brandy, and I got to do homework. Then Saturday, we hung out and watched movies and stuff at home. I also got a Whataburger. I think it's my new favorite burger place, other than In-n-Out. Then yesterday we went to Oak Hills Church. I think Katie posted about it already, but it was good. It seems really huge, but they say they try to make it as small church atmosphere as possible. We met this lady, and she explained all about the small groups and the sunday school classes and what not. We are very hopeful about this church. We have to call the director lady about which small group to join. As of yesterday there is only 20 small groups "Open". 10 adults groups with kids, 10 adult groups without. I know not much of a selection. But actually we are optimistic. We'll keep praying God is showing us where to go.
Last night we went to Date Movie. It was kinda gross in some parts, but on the whole a pretty funny movie. And right now we're gonna go to IHOP for breakfast. What a great weekend eh?
Well I do have to finish my homework for the week, but I'm sure I'll be energized by the pancakes and coffee.
Hope y'alls weekends went good and you're not freezing too much. What's the deal with low pressure?

iPod Nano


Dude, so I got a Nano! It has got to be the coolest present ever. Bean got it for me for Valentines Day. She'd been all excited to give it to me, and I thought I had an idea, but I was wrong. In a good way. It's even better than a new Palm Pilot I thought it was. So I just want to say what an awesome wife I have.

In other news, I got to go to Ft Hood yesterday. That was lots of fun. Three hours to, and three hours back, plus you know, doin' my job. Good times. At least I got paid some extra money. So that's cool. And because I worked SOOOO hard yesterday, I got today off work. So all in all, not a bad deal.

I'm still sick, but almost better. However my stinkin jaw has been popping all day. I barely open my mouth and it pops. Maybe it's a sign for me not to open my mouth. And that would be ok, except then I don't get to eat, and frankly eating is on my top five things to do. Probably top one other than breathing.

Ok well anyway, I sure hope all you folks reading my blog had a good day, and that the sun is shining. Or moon is beaming? I don't know

Dang sick people

Well I thought I was in the clear since I didn't get sick right after katie, but I was wrong. I started feeling like junk yesterday and got worse through the night. I hate being sick. It's only a sinus thing, but it hurts my throat. That's the worst. Anyway, other than that, I just sitting at work, finally having some free time. I worked Thursday, Friday and today hardcore. It's pretty nice to be real busy, but it makes your eyes hurt when you're looking at a screen for 8 hours.

working hard

One of my favorite all time lines from SNL. You know the one with President Bush. Yeah good stuff. Anyway, I'm here at work and I finally got done with all my work orders. It took me all day to get them logged out. You gotta love the web based databases. Or not so much.
Not much has been happening I guess. I went to some girls house from work who helped me get my rear brakes done. Then yesterday I did the front brakes in our garage. What a great feeling! I even got to buy a hydralic jack. That made my day. I think I have really gotten the hang of disc brakes. It only took me about 45 minutes to get the front done. Maybe that's not quick, but I was happy. Once again it could be that I got to use my own garage and tools. I don't know.
I'm in my last week of class, in which we are learning how to write. Long story short, not such a good class. But how much can you really learn in 5 weeks?
After this class I start Human Nutrition. I think it will be fun, but then again, it may make me feel bad about all the pizza and Olive Garden I eat.....Nah probably not.
Oh I almost forgot to tell you about the church we went to on yesterday. I can't say it was a bad church, it actually had a pretty good message, well it made me think, and that's what counts. Anyway, I think including all the little kids, there may have been thirty people. Katie made a comment that we are always in the extremes. Either the church is toooooo big or too small. Is it so hard to find a church that is somewhere in the middle as far as people?
Ok well I hope everyone had a relaxing good weekend. We sure did.
