Sunday Football

One of the great pleasures is Sunday Football. It's a great way for me to wind down my week and prepare for the Monday workday. Thus far it's been a pretty great line-up and the games have been fantastic. If only I lived closer to town so I could actually drive less than 30 minutes to throw the ball around with my homefries.

Congrats on 15 Years

Last week I got to attend a luncheon to celebrate my mom's 15th year working at the Methodist Hospital. Although her original employer was acquired by Methodist Hospital, they still honored the years of service prior to the acquisition. Thankfully, I work close enough so we can carpool and I can zip over for a luncheon.


Do you think we look alike?

Happy Birthday Liem, Part 1

So this past weekend, we were supposed to celebrate Liem's 25th birthday. Unfortunately, I confused some by saying that we were celebrating his 24th and 1/2 birthday. The thing of it is... he wanted me to call it his 24th birthday because hitting the quarter of a century was too much for him. Anyhow, no we don't celebrate 1/2 birthdays and for those in his age range, we are turning the big 2-5 this year.

Well, most of the folks that would typically celebrate with him were for some reason or another in Austin... so that left the dinner left with me + 5 guys. Let's just say the majority of the dinner conversation was not female-friendly. Don't get me wrong, I can hold up my end in a conversation about sports, etc... but I'm not a particular fan of discussing other things. I'm so distraught over it, I can't remember what it was... I must've blocked it out.

Continuing, we were supposed to go roller skating, but because we pushed dinner back and the Longhorns were beginning to luck out, we decided to go back to Andrew's place to finish the game and for some of the guys to watch the UFC matches.

Yeah, after the UT game, they ALL watched the UFC matches... all those boys. So what did I do? What I do best, sleep. I fell asleep in the lower room where the boys usually play halo. Yes, DUFFY... your yelling woke me up, but I sleep like a rock, so I rolled over (I guess not so much like a rock since I rolled). And yes, SUNNY, you did wake me up a second time, but I just rolled over. It's a no wonder Andrew can't get any sleep with you guys playing halo. I guess I lucked out b/c Cha-zeh wasn't there contributing to the yelling... which is another thing, CHAZZY... how come you don't return anybody's phone call.

Ah well, we will try again this weekend in Austin. Dinner + Roller skating = Liem's Birthday Celebration, Part 2. Come one, come all!
