I wouldn't even think about saying that to my wife when she's holding the broom. I like conciousness and walking upright...plus I have to sleep sometime.

Thank you Cris, I try. It's tough sometimes (as you know all too well). I've always said that if I could have had Ryan without ever having set eyes on his mother, I'd have done it in a heartbeat. She's just such a s***bag. I could tell you stuff all day long about her and her parenting skills. She's an RN with her bachelor's in nursing and she's working on her master's. When he had the chickenpox, she called me to find out what to do for them. She's an idiot.

I get all kinds of cute little things said to me. He doesn't mean any harm by them and I know that. One of my favorites is when we fly somewhere and check in bags I get included in the bag count.
Just the talk of barfing makes me sick to my stomach, yuck..

I found one of Hitler playing a banjo but it's too many KB to work. It's funny though. This one will have to do for now. I got one of a zombie stick figure too that works good. I'll put it up this week. This one is just wishful thinking...lol.

Okay, yeah that is sad when a nurse doesn't know what to do with her own child who has the chicken pox's...

I don't fly. I did twice. Going out to Vegas and coming back. That was all pre-9/11. Don't think I'll be doing that anymore though.

G'night Mark and be careful cleaning the garage with your sore back.
She's a real winner. Book knowledge is no substitute for common sense and this is where she is severely lacking. She couldn't find her azz with both hands and a map.

I love to fly! I actually wanted to be a pilot but was told since I didn't have near perfect eye sight that it was out of the question for me to join the Air Force and fly. Looking back I should have checked more into it since it was Linda (real mom) who told me that and for all I know she was lying to me. But, if I would have joined I wouldn't have my little monsters, I mean angels. lol.

I think I saw your zombie stick figure when I got back from the grad party tonight, at least I think thats what your av was for a min.
That is very sad. I personally think common sense is more important than book knowledge. You can always learn something new from a book but if you don't have the common sense to be able to apply in the real world you are screwed.

Common sense doesn't run in her family. I've actually wondered at times if her family tree even branches at all or if it is just a stump. Her mom is the same way. Her mom has been married five times (I think...had to stop and count). She used to be a bouncer at a local bar and grill. Doesn't take much to eject a bunch of drunk geriatric pool players though.
You should have pursued the flying thing but I understand what you're saying about the kids though. I think coulda, shoulda a lot of times but then I think about the kids and my wife and I'm glad I made the decisions I made.
When we flew out to Vegas, it was with friends of ours. Mike knew I hadn't flown before and frankly, I was scared to death. He told me not to worry unless the plane looked really bad when it taxied in. Well, lo and behold, it looked like it had been shot of the air and belly-flopped on the runway. I looked over at him and he was white as a ghost.

Here's the zombie. Actually, I resemble that thing at times.

I look like your avatar almost every morning until I have my first cup of coffee. lol.
I have thought about joining the Reserves in the past few years. Being that I just turned 29 I could get my full 20 in and be done by the time I am 50 but my family doesn't like the idea. My girls think it is cool but they might just like the idea of me being gone one weekend a month and 2 weeks a year
Where my family sees the chance of me being sent off to war and are scared. I don't think they are going to ship a hair dresser off to war but you never know. Where you flying Southwest? Some of their planes look really bad....

Nope...U.S. Airways. The plane we flew out on looked like one of the Piedmont jets from the 60s. Black streaks down the sides and missing portions of stripes. Inside wasn't much better either. Coming back, the plane looked like brand new but we could hear something that sounded like a drink can rolling around under us in the cargo area or something. I kept telling myself "this isn't Value-Jet...this isn't Value-Jet" and we made it back in one piece.
Vegas was a blast though. We had to check out of the Paris by 10AM and our flight didn't leave until midnight. We rented a Mustang GT convertible and drove to the Hoover Dam, Lake Meade, and then over just inside the Cali state line. It was a great trip. That was in 2000. When we got on the plane in Charlotte at around 7 AM, it was around 40 degrees and raining (April weather). When we got off the plane in Vegas, it was about 85 and sunny.
