Where I Wanna Be

The better part of my Wednesday and Thursday was spent travelling via car all through the Piedmont region of NC.  I really don’t mind getting out of the office and going to visit customers – however, I do not enjoy spending huge chunks of time in the car.  I get bored and antsy.

After taking a 7 day hiatus, we decided to fire up the grill again tonight.  This is really the only day during the work week that was available to get our grill on, so, we decided to take advantage.  Per the suggestion of some of his co-workers, Danny bought some Bubba Burgers at the grocery [...]

There was a time when I would have been totally stoked about my birthday falling on a Saturday.  It would have meant going downtown and raising hell being silly.  Now that I am old mature, it meant going out to dinner with some friends, having a couple of drinks and coming home to share the [...]

When I was in high school I had a photo album that was decorated with all kinds of stuff that I cut out from whatever magazines I happened to be reading back then.  I seem to have lost the album in the move – but, I distinctly remember that one of the scraps of paper [...]

Back when we lived in the condo, both Danny and I were always SO jealous of everyone who owned a grill.  Since we had a second floor unit, obviously, we couldn’t put any such thing on our back porch.  And, our redneck neighbors who kept a grill in the bed of their truck and wheeled [...]

There was a time in my life (college and early to mid-20s) where it was totally normally for me to go to a bar and drop somewhere between $50-$80 a night at the bar.  Obviously, not the best way to blow your budget – but, I did have a good time and I am glad [...]

I would be lying if I said that I remained calm, cool and collected throughout the basketball game last night.  Around the 10 minute mark I started pacing around the house during commercial breaks.  With 3 minutes left I hovered over the coffee table screaming “Put the ball in the damn basket and get [...]

Obviously, I take my college basketball very seriously.  There was a time when I was between the ages of 5-6 years old when I actually (and believe me, it pains me to admit this) actually cheered for the Tarheels.  I refer to those unfortunate years as the “black period” of my childhood.
The street I [...]

I have the worst case of Spring Fever ever.  I have been having trouble focusing at work (some of that has to do with my wrist condition) and I have noticed myself going to Flickr and looking at all kinds of pictures of far off tropical places like the Bahamas, St. John, etc.  And [...]
