What are you doing??!!

As I stated before, the house is in disarray. I recently painted inside, so thought it best to get the kids outdoors for some fresh air. Matthew was out playing in the yard, and apparently had to use the bathroom. My attention was elsewhere, but I turned around in time to see his pants around his ankles and him taking it upon himself to water the grass. In the past, he has publicly announced that the world is his toilet, and saw fit to hold up this principle. Very amusing.

Work has been brutal. It is possible I will effectively be taking on the work and knowledge of 7 people. I pondered how I was going to get through it, then it hit me. Sam Adams.

The moving truck is coming on the 21st of this month. We are nowhere near ready for it. Still trying to figure out how/why I am going to become a Texan. I have told myself in the past, on numerous occassions, "the people in Texas can have it...who would want to move there anyway". I mean, by moving to this state does it mean I need to drive a truck with oversized wheels, listen to country music, and purchase a dog? Then if said dog becomes ill I must go out back and shoot it?

In other news, I got my dates for Warrant Officer school for the Army. March 18th. Good times. I guess I should put away the Chee-tos and alcohol and start getting in shape soon.

Last but not least, I heard something funny on the radio this morning. A guy called in and said he couldn't walk for a year when he was born due to a botched circumcision. I think he failed to realize that infants dont walk until about 14 months. Perhaps its best I get out of Florida. It seems they grow retards here.

15 days until the move...

So, we are down to 15 days before we move. Time has moved pretty quickly thus far. Erica and I were in Frisco a week or so ago and found a great house. 4 bdrm, 2700 sq ft. Compared to the 1300 sq ft house we live in now, it should be a nice change of pace. Our house now is in total disarray. Erica keeps it pretty livable during all this, so its manageable. Everyday we try to do just a little bit, piece by piece. We are thinking about stopping in New Orleans on the way, but I am comtemplating whether that is a great idea seeing how it is on the top 5 list of the most dangerous cities in America. Good culture for the kids? Or perhaps, "This is New Orleans kids. This is where thousands of people lost their homes. Government and piss poor planning? Yes. Ingnorance for building a city BELOW the water table? Yes." Or perhaps we can take them to Bourbon St. to have a beer. We shall see.
