Not too much going on here, just enjoying the beautiful weather that Izzy has brought. It's not too hot right now, which is good, there's a nice breeze blowing for most of the day and it's partly cloudy. The 2 hurricanes that are all around us aren't getting any closer and it doesn't look like they will. It's great that we get the best out of a hurricane and have nice days. I think it has something to do with where we are in relation to the warm waters of the Gulf. It's almost too much of a corner for them to turn and hit us. I can't believe the pics of Izzy though, it's covering the whole Gulf of Mexico! And now Lili's on her way. She seems to be following almost the same path.

Enough about the weather, the party's all planned just some last minute shopping to do on friday. Whew, I can't wait till everything's ready and it's time to party. I just hope the weather holds out, if not I'm not sure what we're going to do with all our friends and family. Well, at least we've all known each other for years, a little closeness won't kill any of us.

I just got word that ARGN is closing it's posting doors soon. That's a shame, it's one of the nicest boards I've found recently. I'm going to miss it. I mostly lurked there(like I always do) I try to only post when there's something I know that hasn't been posted already, but with my schedule, there isn't much that I get first. It's only been a few months but I wish them well and am sure that I'll see them around somewhere.

I'm not sure who is still reading this but my stats say a few of you are. I need help, Please. I want to change the size of my webring link and I"m not sure how to do that. I never get to be online when everyone else is so I can't talk to anyone in chat about this. I just want to make the box longer instead of wider. I'm sure it's not hard to do but duh, I just don't know how.

I got to go and finish planning a birthday party, my boyfriend is going to be 50 and I want to make sure he has a good time. At least when I call him 'my ole man' it's the truth. He's a 'bit' (quite a bit) older than me.

Yay! a day off and a thousand things to do, yet here I sit. I just was checking my site stats and all of a sudden I'm getting hits from Malaysia and the Phillipines, strange, very strange.
My first thing to do today is go to the DMV and take care of all that fun stuff which comes with getting titles and plates. My boyfriend turns 50 (w0w) next friday and I'm having a big party for him saturday. I've discovered that it's not an easy thing to do when you're working 11 hours a day. Somehow shopping has to be included today also. And if I don't get any laundry done(well we won't go into that) it won't be pretty I'm sure.

Tonite is our last nite on our dart league. We didn't do so well this time around, maybe they'll give prizes for last place: (It's really bad to go from first to last place.

Time hunt started a beta version this morning. It seems pretty cool and more than a little hard. Full launch should be early next month.There are some really good puzzles there.
And of course, PUSH started last nite. Or at least, the first show aired last nite, it started a while back.

Time to go do all my fun stuff, be happy.

I didn't realize how much I like my time online, until I don't have any time. I'm not sure how I ever got to spend hours everyday online not even that long ago. Now it's impossible to finish reading my email. I'm usually too tired when I get home to do anything,work is supposed to slow down when all the snowbirds go home. That hasn't happened this year. I feel like I'm working Christmas hours. 55 to 60 hours a week. It's killing me. So instead of being out on friday nite here I sit trying to blog andnot having anything to say. You have to have some kind of life outside of work to have anything interesting to say. I don't!

I just checked up on everyone and you all seem to be doing well. At least you're still blogging or keeping us updated on stuff. We did have a little bit of excitement down the road. Alligator Alley was closed for most of today because they thought that these guys were terrorists. I still believe that something was going on but that they weren't the real thing. Why would they draw so much attention to themselves? I mean, everyone knows that if you blow through the toll plaza, someone's going to come after you, right? And then instead of trying to claim their innocence(sp) they get nasty with the F#I guys.

We're right in the heart of hurricane season, so maybe something exciting might just happen soon. For some reason, this part of Southwest Florida is pretty well protected from the worst of the storms. They all semm to miss us or just give us a lot of rain and wind. Hopefully everyone else will be safe this year.

I'm deleting this quiz, I think it's when all my problems started

Ok, since I've finally been accepted by the Nascar webring I guess I should start writing more about NASCAR and bore all of you that don't care about it.

I have a hard time picking a favorite driver, it's easier to pick one that I don't care for. There's only 2 that I don't like. I'm not going to go into them now though. There's a race tomorrow night and I can't wait. There's a Busch race tonite which I'll probably watch since Farscape isn't on. Friday's are usually reserved for SCIFI. It's my escape.
The best I can say is GO FORD!

It seems like forever since I've blogged anything. I've almost forgotten how to type. Work has been crazy, this is the time of year that it usually slows down. I guess that's not going to happen, I have to beg for a day off 2 weeks from now. I guess it's all good though.


Congratulations to Dusty and John!!!! I hope we hear soon that everything went well.

Not too much going on (except work), it's hard to have a life when you're working 12 hours a day. The porch is almost finished, just waiting for the floor.

I'm sure most everyone has recieved the email about saying the pledge and turning your lights on. The post office has even asked us to put our car lights on while we work on the 11th.

Hope everyone's holiday was fun, I'll try to write again soon.
