Hello, Is There Anybody Out There?

Dang it's been a while since I've been on this here blog. Sorry to my 2-3 readers out there that actually give a rat's behind about all of this.

Here's been my life in a nutshell:

1) Annie and I are rolling again.

2) I'm still living with my parents. It's actually not that bad. I've been there for about 4 weeks now, and I'm not too bothered by it. There is a BIG benefit to it, and that is that I can leave my dogs at home and know that I don't have to go home right after work. Kinda nice. So if I show up drunk at 1 A.M., I can rest assured that there won't be a large pile of puppy poop and urine on my floor. Thanks Dad.

3) Dr. Toes, a.k.a. Chief Pounds on Toes has moved back to Oregon. Yesterday, I helped him load up his stuff, well almost all of it, and he should be on the road as I type this. Bye Sir Toes, it was a fun ride.

4) I'm about to start working at the new clinic, and I'm a bit nervous about the adventure. I just hope that I like it, and that it works well.

5) Big R and Lil N are still engaged, and it appears that they she is really gonna marry the guy. Who woulda guessed? Methinks she's a bit crazy for marrying the guy, but maybe Big R's done and "spiked" her drinks so she doesn't really realize what she's doing. Good luck you two!

6) I went down to San Antonio to visit Big Judy and my old roommate from college. We hung out 3 nights in a row, so that was an adventure that my liver is still recovering from. Here's a story about Thursday night:

I got the the area around 3 P.M., and hung out with Judy then. My friend J. had to work until about 8:00 that night, but he said that he'd like to meet at Hooter's for a few drinks. Judy and I got there before J. did, and we found ourselves a table. Now my friend J. teaches high school science, and I tell you this because it will become important. He sits down at the table and after a few minutes of talking, he tells us about how one time he and one of his teacher friends went to Hooter's and one of his friend's former students was their waitress. We all laugh and make fun of the situation, just as our waitress walks up to our table.

Wait for it.....

It was one of J.'s former students. And she was really, really embarrassed. And Big Judy and I were a bit uncomfortable, but we still laughed our collective butts off after she left.

Serves us right, I guess.

7) My sister is moving not to Connecticut, like we thought. She is now moving to Houston. This weekend. The bad news is that Cameltoes and I were gonna plan on flying up there in September to catch the Astros/Mets series. Not anymore. Now I guess that I'll have to settle for watching the Astros in their home park. Which is plenty fine by me.

8) I have no friends with me anymore. And that thought is just now beginning to sink in. I mean I have a few old friends from high school that I can hang out with. I even have a friend from vet school that I hang out with from time to time, but I wouldn't exactly call it a close friendship. I do have my brother here, but he's practically a dad, so I don't see him much either, with the time constraints of his life and all.

So I've got to find a place to meet some friends. Hmmmmm. There's always the casinos. Now that's an idea. Just kidding Bean.

9) I'm still waiting to get paid from my former slumlord. The judgement was in October 2006, and I'm STILL waiting on this mother-trucker to pay me. I just got off the phone with my lawyer, and he has no news to speak of. I guess I'll keep on waiting.....and waiting......and waiting. Bastage!

Update: I just heard from my lawyer and he said that the bastage paid me!!!! Now I have to wait FOUR WEEKS for the check to be mailed from the County to my lawyer. Then I'll have to wait for the lawyer to mail it to me. I figure it'll be about 5-6 weeks before that all happens, but I can't complain. YIPEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, that's it for now. Keep on keepin' on
