Life and the challenges that Come with It.

I haven't really been blogging lately I think it is because I don't really have much to say. I know that is shocking for those of you who know me but I seem to be going through a very busy time in my life where I have a million and one things going at the same time and they are keeping me very busy. I became involved with a gay organization in town and it is taking up a lot more time than I expected. I won't be writing to much about the group and I will try to keep my personal life and my group life as separated as possible but I am having fun. I have met a lot of interesting people and I think it will help me grow as a person.

I am not going to write about the Austin trip Chico and I took a few weeks ago, Chico did a very good job at recapping that trip. I did have a blast and we are planning on going back the weekend of March the 11th to attend a political event.

I am going to Vegas this weekend and I plan on having a good time. I will be in the City of Sin, I may sin a little :) or not, you know me. I am just excited to get away from work and DFW for a while. It is suppose to rain most of the time we are there so I hope we can find things to do. I went and had lunch with Sarah and Eli on Wednesday and Sarah gave me good suggestions on what to do. My parents are still planning on joining us for the weekend. My mom called me tonight and her arm is hurting a lot. Did I mention that she fell and broke her arm about two months ago? Well, they took the cast off today and apparently she is in a lot of pain. If she is still in pain this weekend she will reconsider going to Vegas but I think my dad and sister will still go.

I still don't have a dog. I can't seem to find a dog that I like. I may just have to get a black and white poodle. But can you really see me walking a poodle? We will see, I don't want to get a dog that I will be ashamed to walk. By the way, I am still taking donations for my labradoodle, you can just send them directly to my house. :)

My economics class is killing me and Wade isn't as much help as I hoped he would be. He is always working and by the time he is on his way home I am already asleep. I have decided that being a restauranteur is not worth the pain and sacrifice. I hear what the poor guy has to deal and I am not sure it is worth it (for me). Now when we talk it is mostly about recipe's (not that I mind, you know I salivate talking about food)and about what is going on with the restaurants. I guess I should give an update on what is going on with Wade.....but perhaps that will happen another night.

I guess I had a lot more to say than I thought. By the way...I am really glad that you guys started blogging again. :)

It's 10:30 p.m. do you know where your Cesar is?

Yes, it is 10:30 at night and I am still at work. We are going live with a new system on Monday and we are trying to get everything done by tomorrow so that we don't have to come to work on Friday.
They are still working on setting up the servers and it is going to take them another 45 minutes. By the time we test and verify the system it will be 1 or 2 in the morning. We all have to be back up here at 7 a.m. to continue with the second server. Yawn. I am so tired...I am at the point of exhaustion.

I am driving to Houston with Chico tomorrow. I am going to be such a poor traveling companion. The good thing is that it is Chico and that we get to go :) For a while I thought we were going to have to cancel because I was going to have to work this weekend but it has been confirmed and I am out of here.

Right now we are living off of coffee, pizza, cookies, and stolen creamer. If we stay here much longer we are going to have to go and raid the refrigerator on other floors.
