9:11PM - Another Monday Update
Eh, it seems like I only update this thing only on Mondays. Hopefully, that'll change soon. This weekend totally rocked though! Friday night I went out to dinner with Brian and then we met up with Kyle at Bud's and did some chit chatting. It was fun just to sit and talk about things like the good ol' times. Then Saturday got even better. I had to work and that totally sucked. But after work I went to Morgan's with people from work and I got a little tipsy. Then after then I went and picked up Kyle and Brian and went to 115 Bourbon Street. I was the DD so I didn't have really anything to drink and I just watched the two of them get trashed. That probably had to be the funniest thing I've ever seen. Lol. We all plan on going again this weekend but this time I don't want to be the DD. Then, Sunday even they came over again and we just chilled around the house and decided at 10:30 to see the movie Be Cool. I thought it was awesome but there are some mixed views in that opinion with my friends. Needless to say this weekend was filled with a few really late nights and I haven't been sleeping. Today, wasn't all that bad either. I had lunch with Terry's girlfriend, Katie, at Denny's and we had hot waiter Garrett and guess who's going to see Garrett's band perform next week. Oh yeah...good times. Well...this is all for now. I promise I will start writing more. TA TA for now...

9:47PM - Happy Monday People!
What a weird ass weekend. I finally got my car going so that means I have insurance and plates for the car. This weekend Bobby came over and we cleaned out my car and I went and got my It's Happy Bunny floormats, steering wheel cover and other accessories. Bobby spent a lot of time over here which is suprising. On Sunday he took me to church with him and we went and he bought himself a puppy. He got a boxer and named him Rex. He's the cutest little thing. Well, this is going to be short because I have to work tomorrow and I haven't been sleeping at night. Later for now!

6:26PM - Been A While...
So...sorry it's been a while since I've updated this darn thing. This weekend totally rocked though! Work totally sucked but the after work parties were the best. It's been so much better since I've turned 21. Saturday after work I went out with some people from work and we over took Aerillio's in Mokena. I drank a margarita and had 3 Miller Lights and it messed me up pretty good. I knew I was starting to get pretty bad when I could look over at Bob and think he was pretty good looking. I mean common...he's about 15 years older than me and that's just not right. Then I went out with my friend Dannielle, her boyfriend, her roomie from school and her boyfriend's brothers to a hotel somewhere up north. It was the best time ever. I of course ended up getting trashed cause I suck at drinking games and I honestly think I was the first one to fall asleep. I paid for it the next day though. OMG, I was so sick and tired. Thank god it was a Sunday and I didn't have to work. Oh, well...I'm going to watch the championship of Celebrity Poker Showdown. Peace everyone!

5:26PM - BOOO!!!!
Jeff Gordon Sucks ASS!!! I can't believe this. I would have liked to see anyone else but him win for the most part. So disappointing. Atleast Elliott Sadler finished 11th, Rusty finished 10th and Mark Martin finished 6th. Well...that's all for now.

11:33AM - Today Is The Daytona 500!
Ok, my pre-Daytona 500 predictions are in. I'm hoping to see one of my good ol' boys in victory lane. Rusty Wallace, Mark Martin, Ricky Rudd and of course, Kenny Schrader are some personal favorites. However, the one guy that actually has a chance of winning it is Elliott Sadler, who I will also be cheering for. Knowing my luck the "BIG ONE" will occur on the 5th lap and take out all my boys. The Daytona 500 has seen it's share of upsets though (1991 when Derrick Cope won comes to mind quickly) and hopefully today we will see another miraclious finish.
Well, later tonight I'll have a recap of the Daytona 500, and if there's any luck in this world the headline will be that Kenny Schrader won the damn thing. Have a good day everyone!

1:18AM - Daytona 500 Eve
What an eventful day. First of all, I got myself a car. I can't believe I ended up with a Ford but hey...it works. It's a 1995 Ford Taurus. I like it and you can't beat the free price tag on it. GO KENNY in the Daytona 500! A victory would be sweet!

11:09PM - Daytona Countdown : 3 Days!
What a fun day today has been. Work took up most of it but that isn't so bad. My friend Christine and I had some fun with Kevin unintentionally and it wasn't that busy so I had time to socialize with people. Now I'm just looking forward to the Daytona 500 and going to see Oasis and Jet in concert. Tonight I watched one of my favorite tv programs, The World Poker Tour. Tonight they had my favorite player Phil Gordon on and he won his first tournament which was awesome. God I honestly can't get over how adorable that man is. Other than that a really boring day. I promise within the next couple of days I'll have more to write.

10:14PM - Valentine's Day 2005 Style
Eh...Just another day with some meaning behind it. I did nothing romantic today but I got a lot done. First of all I went to the DMV to get my drivers license renewed. BTW...I took an awesome picture so now I'm not embarrassed when people see my photo on my license because I'm wearing a Pokemon T-shirt. Then I came home and napped for a few hours which is always a good thing. Then my mom woke me up because she wanted me to come with her to someone's house to get a computer monitor. She ended up with a 21 inch dell sony monitor. Not bad for only 50 bucks and I finally got my computer back so I can use it whenever. Then afte that...more napping. At 7 pm today debuted the 2005 season of Inside Nextel Cup with Kenny Schrader, Johnny Benson and Michael Waltrip. I was quite excited and happy to finally see my boys on tv. Since the end of that program I've been laying in bed listening to music and thinking. Which could be quite dangerous but it's actually all good. Well, I hope you all had a nice Valentine's Day. Talk to everyone later!

9:20PM - Great Weekend
Damn, last night was the best! I had so much fun with friends and co-workers it was unbelievable. On top of other things I met a great guy who I think I'm starting to fall for...lol. It was so awesome though. We all met up at Morgan's then after a game of totally trashed bowling we all decided to go to North Beach Club in Downers Grove and that was my first ever "Clubbin'" experience and I had a F'ing blast! I'm sorry to those who didn't come or couldn't make it cause honestly you missed one hell of a party. The people I work with are all crazy but I love them all now. Even with all I had to drink I didn't totally lose grip of reality (even though I was out on a dance floor at some point of the night which I don't quite understand) and I didn't wake up with a total hangover. However, when I walked in the door at 3 a.m. my mom was standing there waiting for me of course. This morning I got kind of a lecture but nothing serious. Atleast Thearesa, her boyfriend Mark, Kevin, Christine and Dan had the desency to take me out to somewhere to sober up a little bit before they took me home so I wouldn't go in the house all stubling all over the place. Well, I'm gonna hit the hay early cause I have a feeling I'm going to get called into work tomorrow. Talk to everyone Later!

7:32PM - So Tired...
I really love working 14 hour days at work...NOT!!! Today totally sucked. They stuck me on a brand new route and I did over 45 feet of mail. Usually I only have about 25 - 30 feet of mail but today I was swamped. So, now I'm just exhausted. The one encouraging thing is that when I left today I asked my boss, Diana, if I would get called in tomorrow and she pretty much thought no because I've been there a lot this week and they don't want me to go over 40 hours. They so afraid of having to pay overtime it's unbelievable. I really wish the days were longer. I have so much to do but after work I'm so tired it doesn't get done. Well...I'm gonna finish watching Spongebob and relaxing. Have a good evening!

7:36AM - Superbowl Sunday
God, It's only 7:30 in the A.M. and I'm awake. What the hell? Well, my prediction for the Superbowl today is the Patriot will conquer over the Eagles by a lot and it's most likely going to be a boring game but, I'm still going to watch for the laid back commercials. (Damn you Janet Jackson!) Atleast I get to see my favorite Beatle perform at half time tonight. If Paul McCartney doesn't perform any Beatles songs I will be sorely dissapointed.
On a much happier note in less than 24 hours I will finally be 21! Tonight I'm going to do some early celebrating though...lol. Terry bought me a blender and a few margarita glasses for my birthday so I have a feeling that they are going to get some use tonight.
BTW...Everyone! Party at Morgan's-Thunderbowl in Mokena Saturday, February 12th at around 7:30ish P.M. We are going there for food, booze, NASCAR Racing (The Budweiser Shootout) (Go Kenny!), and of course bowling. Everyone can see how much better of a bowler I am when I've been drinking. It should be a good time. I have some people from work coming along too and boy, let me tell ya, they are quite an interesting bunch at times. Hope all of ya can make it!
Well, I'm sure I'll be writing in this later. Especially since I haven't been writing as of lately. I'll have some Superbowl coverage later I'm sure.
TaTa for now!

7:06PM - Happy 21st Wedding Anniversary Mom and Dad!
Wednesday...the worst day of the week for most, but not for me. Today was another sweet day. Went to work and delivered express packages which is just easy money. Plus, it just knocks another day off of my probation period. Other than that, just another day. Nothing big happened.
This day today my mom and dad were married back in 1984 in Las Vegas. Look at what happened 21 years later...really makes me wonder if I want to ever get married to be honest. Lol.
Goodnight everyone!

9:41PM - Tuesday?
What an absolutely wonderful day! First of all, work was actually good. I had no bitching customers and things went smoothly. Then when I came home I found out the new season of Celebrity Poker Showdown started tonight. It was so damn funny.
One of the coolest things to happen today though, was getting in touch with an old friend from high school. I was so psyched.
Well, I think that covers my day today. Everyone have a wonderful evening and a great morning but for now, as always, PEACE!

6:59PM - A Day Off Finally!
I finally had a day off work besides Sunday. This is a freaking miracle. But, of course, I wasted my day but sleeping until about 12:30 in the afternoon. Which meant nothing got done all day today.
I don't have a computer to myself anymore which totally sucks. Thanks to the family computer's monitor finally dying, I have to share my monitor with the family computer. I've been online all day today trying to find a decent laptop computer that I could buy reasonably cheap so I can give my parents my computer and the old family computer could go to my brothers after they buy a new monitor. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated in my effort to find a computer because I really don't know what the hell I'm looking at.
My second Favorite Johnny Carson moment of the week has to be when Don Rickles made an appearance on the Tonight Show. Johnny Carson was laying down on a bench recieving a message from four women and Don Rickles walked out on the stage. Don Rickles grabbed a hold of Johnny Carson and started to rub him and pretend to snuggle with him. Johnny got up, grabbed a hold of Don and threw him in a wading pool that was near by. Great times.
Well...that should be all for this evening. Good Evening!

8:33PM - R.I.P. Johnny Carson
Sadly, today we lost beloved comedian Johnny Carson. Definetely, the best Tonight Show host there will ever be. This week every night I will share what I believe were some of his favorite bits with everyone.
Tonight's has to be the funniest thing I've ever seen on tv. In a very early episode of the Tonight Show, Johnny's guest was Tonto from the Lone Ranger and he was demonstration how to throw a hatchet. When the gentlemen threw the hatchet it hit the wooden display of a sherriff right between the legs. Every time I see that I just crack up. It never gets old.

7:11PM - Boring Sunday
How much boring of a Sunday could it be? I really can't wait for NASCAR season to start. Today was a day filled with cleaning the house in the morning. I was really on a mission as it seemed because I was cleaning everything and anything.
I got to watch NBC's coverage of the Detriot International Auto Show. Elliott Sadler made an appearance which made my day a little bit better. He's definetely one of the best looking men out there...LoL.
I recleaned my bedroom so now I have slightly more room for more diecast I may collect over the next month. I have to plan a trip to the diecast store sometime in the next couple of weeks and treat myself to a few select collectable cars. I've been eyeballin' a few Kasey Kahne and Ricky Rudd cars that have been sitting there for a little while.
I wonder if I'm going to get called into work tomorrow. Geez..what am I saying??? I know I'm going to get called in. It's just a matter of what I will be doing while at work tomorrow. Hopefully it'll only be delievering Express Mail or doing parcels.
Well, here's the FYI on my birthday party. My parents ok'd the idea of letting me celebrate my Birthday a day early so I'm having a big ol' Superbowl Party. Everyone is invited. Officially it's February 6th and people can start coming over at around 5:30 - 6:00 p.m. However, as always at my house, if you drink here you must have a designated driver or you're spending the night. That's the rules.
That's all for tonight. Tomorrow if I don't have to work I'll post some pictures up on this for everyone. Good Evening All!

6:38PM - Snow Day
Yeah...a foot of freaking snow fell today. Of course, I was working in all of it. I got stuck in the snow twice and dug myself out. Not a lot of fun let me tell you.
29 Days until the Daytona 500 which is almost the only thing that's keeping my spirits up. Hopefully either Schrader, Rusty or Martin will win it this year but it's probably highly doubtful.
This upcoming week of work should be most interesting. I know I have to work on Tuesday covering my regular route but as of right now the rest of the week is up for grabs and more than likely I'll be called in. Lucky me huh?
BTW, Everyone has to check out www.partyben.com and check out the songs on that website. There's some really awesome mash-ups. The best one on there is the Green Day, Oasis, Travis, Eminem, Aerosmith's Boulevard of Broken Songs. They've been playing it on Q101 and it just rocks. Other songs on there are interesting and cool too.
Well, that's it for tonight I guess.
If you want to be in my friends list on this just reach me and I'll add you. I just didn't want to do it without people's permission.
Love All Ya!

8:00PM - Ehhh
So some people have been on my case about starting one of these so I am. Nothing new going on as of lately. Been working my butt off on a daily basis at the post office. I've also been trying to plan something for my birthday. It hasn't been easy trust me on that. I miss all of my friends that are away at school. It totally sucks not being able to hang out with ya'll. Well, I promise my next entry will be longer, but for now, Peace!
