New Years Eve Problems for Scott

Kilroy the one thing you didn't figure in to your plan is my job. I work for a retail company. The biggest time of year is the holiday season of Thanksgiving through the end January. And during this time Target has ths nice little term called "Black out dates." This term tells you when you can and can not take time off. And guess what times are blacked out during the holiday season. You guessed it, I believe it is two weeks before Thanksgiving through the end of January that are "blackout". So great idea and don't let me stop everybody from getting together in Omaha, but I wont be able to make it. Even if I could get away for a quick weekend trip it is highly frowned apon not to work New Years eve on my line of work. You know the crazies all come about then. Now I'm not saying no, but the likely hood of me making it is very slim. But stranger things have happened. And since not everybody will see this here (in Kilroys comments section) I will post it on my blog to see what comments come out of it.

Dance, Dance

No, I'm not talking about the song by the Fall Out Boys, although it is a good song. I'm talking about East Coast Swing Dance. That is the class Laura and I are taking at the community center. It was my Christmas present to Laura that she picked out. I dont mind going, I have always wanted to learn how to doance so I don't look too much like a fool when I do dance. First night was tonight. It wasn't bad and I am picking it up quick. Although we are starting slow, so maybe I'm not. Laura is also taking Ballet and Jazz classes after that. So she has a full night monday nights. Laura also signed us up for some dance workshps that shouldn't be to bad. I don't remember what they are at this time, but I'm sure I will write about them when we have them. Well that's it for now.

Later gators

Awesome Bowling, Bad Neighbor

So I always look forward to bowling on Sunday. This was probably my best round yet. 133, 150, 170. With out handicap. I'm stoked! There were coupel times that I just choked to. So if I can eliminate those mistakes I think i could be a god player. Not great but good.

So I have this, how do you say this PC, a inconsiderate ass hole of an upstairs neighbor. Not only inconsiderate to me but mother earth as well. The third floor tenates will smoke on thier balcony. Ok that's not a crime, but when there done they will throw the butts off the balcony. Where do they end up you ask? Mostly in my pattio on Laura's plants! So for the last three or four weeks we weren't sure if it was the second floor or the third floor. But tonight whe Laura and I were going grocery shopping there he was, smoking on the balcony. Now your probably thinking if we didn't see him throw off the butt how do we know it is him? Well I think it goes along way to say that when they don't have anything on the balcony except a bird feeder that we can pretty much guess that they don't leave the butts on their balcony. Anyway I digress, Laura will be turning the butt throwers into the apartment complex mangers to put a stop to it. We will see if that actually works or not. Till then we will keep watching.
