Happy thanksgiving!!!

Hey!! Happy thanksgiving everybody!! Things are going well, I have a job working construction, and so obviously i'm very busy!! Thanks guys for sticking to my blog even when I don't update like I should ;)

Does anybody else feel like there's not enough time to do the things you want, and yet every day seems to be FOREVER long, every 5 minutes sitting in class looking at the clock sure that at "least" 30 minutes have gone by just to see the tiny 5 minute difference? and somehow I still don't have time each day to fit it all in.. sigh..
anyway, I'm staying plenty busy with school, I'm doing well, it's tough.. I even had to drop what should have been a ridiculously easy math class.. I'm learning a lot, and hopefully next semester should be a lot easier.
Well here are a few pictures from my life these days..

A deer that was really close to our car at Meramac Springs

fall time is such a beautiful season :)

Hmm.. anyway, I'm really trying to keep updating my blog, but Im always so tired and busy.. I hardly even have time for facebook.. lol which if you know me well you'll know I used to spend a good hour or two a day just on facebook ;) anyway.. I better be going, I'm sitting in Psychology class.. learing about Freudian theories.. :) yay!

Just for Megan :)

Hi meggy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm sitting next to you so I thought I'd say hi! :) now you'd better actually read this..

Jeannie night

Haha so tonight the main event if the ever famous Jeannie night was the official sandbox party where Megan ahem.."gained some weight" I'm not sure what happened to her arms.. It was hood times.. After the rush and crazy hours of the midnight study college world it's great to just hang out and do crazy stuff with my friends.

Well I'm in college now, and with 19 hours as a fresh man I don't have a lot of time for blogging anymore... Between work, school, girlfriend :) and military.. I'm very busy... But life is good :) anyway, gotta get going, God bless!

The Hike (2)

A cool red barn :)

So they decided to utilize medical tape and creativity to come up with this dazzling piece of artwork on my back..

Beautiful. lol

my favorite hiker :)

Cool old-fashioned barn

aww :)

He could not figure out where the slow children were playing. Guess he wanted to join them.

Megan and Ashley were the only ones cool enough to wear overalls..

The weed clan

Shhh.. don't tell the cops.

Wow I'm terrible!!

Haha so yea I haven't been updating very well lately..
Well I don't have my camera in here to get my newest pictures, but I'll work on that later ;)
So this past wednesday I drove out to south carolina to see my dad graduate from his basic combat training at fort Jackson. It was kinda weird being all done with my training and remembering what it was like to be in basic.. it's a 14 hour drive each way, which was pretty crazy.. I get there around 230am and had to get up at 5:30 to be ready to be on post to pick him up for family day. I drove separate from my fam because they are staying out for a week or now they're talking aobut staying for two weeks, so yea I couldn't afford that, so I drove myself. Then on the way back it ended up being mid afternoon by the time I was headed back home, so I got home at 530am saturday morning.. lol talk about tired.. I literally think I was asleep before my head even hit my pillow. I had to keep pinching myself to stay awake while I was driving ;)
So saturday I went to work out at McCluskey's (well the farm house) to do some weed-wacking, then it ended up that Heart's cry was suddenly playing that night, so I had to rush home and change and head into Rolla and ended up getting to church about 5 minutes before it started.. lol!! So then afterwords I went back out, finished my work, went out and looked at some flood waters in the creek and ate supper and watched a movie and fun stuff like that until like 11 pm. Then today I ended up crashing for about 4-5 hours after church.. lol ;) I was TIRED!! hehe
Well anyway, that's my life, so yup I guess I will catch you all up more later!

We are the pirates, who don't do anything, we just stay at home, and lie around.. lol come to the play!! it is the bomb-diggity and the bee's knees!!!

there it is. you should come.

Well, I took over 550 pictures this past saturday of the Pirates of Penzance dress rehearsal, but here are a few.. I'm really looking forward to seeing this play, although now I've pretty much seen it all.. :) I found out I could probably have been in it after all, but oh well.

Hmmm.. I recognize that look..

They are all noble men gone wrong..

ok.. this is why ninjas are better than pirates.

it's a good thing it's only a play or this guy might have a sore face.. lol!

What??? don't you dance around in a nightgown in the middle of the night?? I thought everybody did that..

I think he's a pirate who don't do anything.. or maybe he's jack sparrow in disguise??

What was that???

a VERY brave-looking policeman..

Wow.. I think every picture I take of jacob he looks more and more intelligent.

Not to brag, but I really think this is an awesome picture..

don't ask don't tell..

Well guys aren't supposed to say a dress is pretty.. but I have to say this one is quite attractive, and you couldn't ask for a better model either.

My dear Frederic.. don't go!

well you see..

don't move or I'll shoot!!! these parasols are loaded!! ha!

Real men carry parasols. Back off.

Aaaaaaaa!! lol

The model of a modern major-general..

My new ride :)

Well after about 8 months of shopping I finally found my car! I wasn't planning to get one for a few weeks since I at least had a motorcycle to hold me over, but this one came up and it was the right car at the right price, so it's mine!! :)

Ok, so details. It's a 1996 Mustang GT convertible, 4.6 liter V8, racing transmission and clutch, RAM air hood, aftermarket spoiler, exhaust, wheels/tires, paint job, On the track the guy has done mid-upper 12s in it, so it's pretty fast! I've gotten to 60 in about 4 seconds or so, and once I get more used to the clutch I think it'll do even better. It's got a lot of git-up and go, and the mufflers sound sweet. It's not flowmasters, but they're still pretty short and therefore pretty loud. I've been told if I run it around 3,000 rpms I can be heard over a quarter of a mile away :) but it idles very quietly actually..
It's a ton of fun to drive, and at least I think it's a really good looking car. Sorry the pix aren't perfect, but I'm having internet problems over here, so I couldn't get them to load in full size.

Anyway, anybody want a ride?? haha

Dude.. I iz a motorcycle owner.. w00t!

Well I finally got my motorcycle tonight :) :) I can't legally drive it much for a while because of titling and licensing and all that, but at least it's mine now, and I have it, and I can drive around some :) Here are a couple pix for you :) I'll get some more later, but the rest of this week I'm pretty busy, so idk.. So now you can call me a biker ;) although I'm not really a biker until I've had it for a while and all.. :) anyway...

This is to all my fellow LOTR geeks.

So if you know what these are, moreover if you even know what sindarin is, you are probably either a hardcore google-er or you are a LOTR geek (which I am by far more the former, but not too far behind on the latter) haha. If you don't know what LOTR stands for you probably shouldn't even be reading this blog... lol ;)

well... one of these days I'll get to it..

Hey sorry I haven't updated lately, but I've been pretty busy.. I gotta go to work in a few minutes today even.. :) but anyway, I'll be trying to get some new pictures up here. For now check out my facebook, I got a few (120) up there, because they load a lot faster. Anyway, have a good day, I'd best be going. Bye!

New blog look

So I changed the background on my blog.. how do you like it? I had to do some rooting around with HTML code and stuff.. but hopefully everything still works.. for some reason it was saying I have no followers, so if that stays you can just re-follow my blog ;P Anyway, God Bless you whoever you are!! :)

Stuff.. YAY!!!

So yea, I'm really wishing I had an electric guitar and amp right now, because I'm trying to learn this song I put up as my new blog song.. and it's not meant for acoustic at all!! But oh well.. anyway, I'm really hoping sometime this week to be able to go get my motorcycle.. hopefully somebody else won't outbid me on it.. lol!! so yup, I'm doing great, loving being home, and all that :) I just finished writing up my resumé so I can apply for a couple jobs in Rolla, but I've also got quite a bit of other work I can do around town while I wait. I finally got a pretty big dent in all the cleanup and organization of everything here at home, there's not much left to do. My refrigerator had gotten unplugged while I was gone, but they didn't take the meat out of the freezer section of it, and it was all rotten and NASTY when I came home and opened it up!!! haha!! so I spent like two hours yesterday afternoon with lots of bleach and a scrub brush to clean it out! lol eww.. Today I'm going to finish putting away two rubbermaid tubs full of stuff that has accumulated over the months.. some trash some very important stuff.. fun stuff..... lol

AIT FTX

So I thought I'd post a few pictures from FTX at my AIT, see if you
can see me in some of them :)
As you can see the texas weather down there is a bit more
accommodating than up here in missouri!! lol ;) oh well ;)
Most of these pix are from patrol- where we carry about four to five
patients up and down rugged mountainsides for about a total of 4
miles. It's the hardest, but probably most fun training I did at AIT.
