What I am listening to as I type this: Kris Kross - Jump

November 30, 2004

Payday! I'm very busy. I bought a new camera last night. Have a nice day.

What I am listening to as I type this: Chimaira - This Present Darkness

November 29, 2004

That was a sweet extended weekend. After hearing the horror stories of other people's trips through Nebraska to get back to Denver (some aren't back yet...the interstate is closed...all hotels are booked, etc.......) I'm VERY happy I decided to stay here for Thanksgiving. See below links for proof!
http://www.desmoinesregister.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20041129/NEWS04/411290355/1001
http://www.denverpost.com/Stories/0,1413,36~53~2565144,00.html

On top of that, Beaver Creek got over 3 feet of snow since Friday morning! Giddy! I got 2 days of riding in, both at Breckenridge. I "rode" on my first ever C-Box......let's just say that didn't turn out so well ;o) That's going to take some practice to master! It took a monstrous 3 1/2-4 hours to get back to Denver from Breck yesterday, horrible.

Braved the cold and snow last night and went to the Broncos/Raiders game. Anyone see it on TV? It probably looked pretty sweet, the snow was dumping down the whole game....Porter's game-winning TD catch was absolutely amazing...we were right on the goal line 30 rows up so we were right by that touchdown. I attempted to take pictures but realized that the fleet-camera is officially dead. I may have to buy a new one this week before I take off.....time to travel again on Thursday :o)

Glad everyone traveled safe (hopefully) over the weekend and I'm laughing at every single one of you who didn't get to snowboard in these insanely delicious conditions this weekend. Wow! I don't get to go for 2 weeks now :o( ah well.....time to work. adios.

What I am listening to as I type this: Marilyn Manson - Wormboy

November 24, 2004

I'm really busy so this'll be quick......

Thanksgiving plans are running the Turkey Trot in the a.m., then all of us family-less people are going to cook up a feast and eat the hell out of it. Then we'll watch football. Then I'll head up to the mountains and ride my snowboard all weekend, it snowed last night so there's some freshie up there......giddy. Never made it into A51 (http://www.nightpark.com) at 'stone the other day so I'd like to check that out at some point. I'll probably hit up Breck on Saturday so I can take breaks to watch the ISU game. We need either ISU to win or Nebraska to win in order for us to take the Big XII North title. It'd be our first, rock on.

I just ripped my This Present Darkness cd...I'm so incredibly happy right now, it has the original/good version of Painting The White To Gray that I couldn't find anywhere. I'm just realizing how incredibly un-popular Chimaira is. I had no idea that their 2nd album (Pass Out of Existence) only sold 60K albums, and their new one only sold 125K -- I figured they were much more popular than that. Humph..... I'd hate to see how many copies of This Present Darkness sold....at least I've got mine ;o)

Ignore the counter on the main page, that's just an experiment.....New MP3 is up and it's a SWEET song....quite eerie though. New pic of the day is up too. Travel safe this weekend and I'll rap atcha later. Happy Thanksgiving!

What I am listening to as I type this: Jurassic 5 - A Day At The Races

November 23, 2004

Busy -- later maybe otherwise tomorrow. bye.

What I am listening to as I type this: BT - Smartbomb

November 22, 2004

This weekend went pretty well. Tim and I stayed up in Silverthorn on Friday night, met some of my winter roommates, they seemed pretty cool. Headed up to Beaver Creek for opening day, got there around 8:45ish maybe? They only had one run open and it was all crud-snow, so we only took about 5 runs and headed to Breckenridge. Got to Breck around noon:30 and wow, what a difference. Breck kicked ass. Made an additional 5 runs there on real snow and there were some nice rollers and kickers so I've got my legs back in jumping shape pretty well. We sat up at the bar and watched the 4th quarter of the ISU/KSU game - WOO HOO!! Go Cyclones! We just need either a) to beat Mizzou in Ames next week....or b) Nebraska beats CO. If one of these happen we play Oklahoma in the Big XII championship game. How sweet would that be if Iowa State made it into the BCS?! Headed to Potts and PCL on Saturday night with a bunch of people, yesterday I was a bum.

The Orediggers lost, and thanks to rookie Michael Boulware - the SeaChickens were able to pull off a scare from the injury-prone Dolphishes. It wasn't pretty, but I'm thinking the way we ended that game just might give us our fire back. We've got a challenging home game against the Bills next week, then it's Monday Night Football against the Cowboys. Hopefully that'll bring us up to 8-4 for the season.....hopefully. I've only missed 8 points in my Old Chicago pool this week - sitting at a whopping 121/129 points with an additional 7 tonight if the Pats pull off a victory over the Priest-less Chefs....great googeley-moogeley. So that should get me a free appetizer and hopefully catapult me up a little more in the standings. Not sure how I did in fantasy...can't be too awful, I finally benched Hasselbeck.

How well do you know your United States geography?

Have a short week this week with Thanksgiving and all. I've decided to run a 5K instead of a 4 mile run for a Turkey Trot. It's only $5 instead of $25 so I figured what the hell, plus I'm in REALLY good 5K shape...yup. There's a cocktail party on Friday but I don't think I'm going, I'd rather hit up some snowboarding so I think I'll do that, leave Thursday night after football or something. Andy's whipping up a turkey, Bob says he'll make some stuffing, and I'm whipping up some potatoes and broccoli casserole. This could kick incredible ass. Seriously.

Ask Sexy Kelly some questions - I'll start posting her replies sometime next week, but want to get a good base of questions before I put anything up. Seriously - she's good! I haven't solicited for guestbook signers for awhile...hmmmmm. New MP3, Wil$on picture, and pic of the day is up -- have a great week!

What I am listening to as I type this: Killswitch Engage - When Darkness Falls

November 19, 2004

First off - I know I said I wouldn't bitch - but come on, seriously -- it this even close to intelligent?! As Slipknot says....."I won't let this build up inside me".......i'm going to try to forget that someone could be this stupid as to do that. I guess "balancing the budget" doesn't need to be done if you can just increase your own credit limit.

What's up - really busy so I'm going to type really fast. Watched The O.C. last night, ended up canceling out of all other plans for the evening. I'm heading to my condo straight after work tonight, not sure how long I'll be there - but I assure you I'll be at Beaver Creek for opening day tomorrow. I packed up all my board games and plastic-wear and stuff to keep up in Silverthorn for the winter. And as Towelie reminded me of as I looked at him this morning sitting atop my DVD's - "Don't Forget To Bring a Towel!"

May have a change in plans regarding the Thanksgiving Turkey Trot - I think I'm going to run the one in Boulder now - it's a 5K and is only $5 and a can of food - so it'd save me $25 -- easier to find parking -- and I'm in kick ass 5K (3.1 miles) time -- if I work my ass off the next week I could possibly do it in 22:30 (7:15 minute miles) - but we'll see, for now I'm just shooting for 23:15...anyways....

I don't have time for this, I'm seriously really busy. I'll put up a new MP3 and pic for you though, regardless. Late, and have a fantabulous and safe weekend. GO OREDIGGERS AND CYCLONES!!!! (for those of you in CO - the orediggers are on Altitude at 3:30 or something on Saturday - check out our work website for details: www.oia.mines.edu)

What I am listening to as I type this: Slayer - Dead Skin Mask

November 18, 2004

Well, Hotmail no longer lets you use Outlook Express, as a result, I will no longer be using hotmail. Use my gmail account or the one on my contact page to get a hold of me from now on.

Very busy, nothing for you today...

What I am listening to as I type this: Slayer - Seasons In The AbyssNovember 17, 2004

Everything today is starting out quite strange. My office has an orange glow to it now, they changed the lights in here and I feel like I have on my orange lenses. So then I'm doing my daily routine of checking out what's happening in the world........

CNN tells me that Kmart bought out Sears. Denver Post tells me how they caught the Raspy Robber (that story has been cracking me up for a few weeks now) and made me laugh and inspired the quote of the day. Yahoo let me read my daily Doonsbury, Dilbert, and Fox Trot. The Iowa State Daily taught me that there is actually a band named Pig Destroyer, I was unaware of that. Then I get to the Des Moines Register....AHHHHH!!! Revamped website and I can't find anything I want! There are more moving ads on this page than any website I've ever been on! Hopefully this is the disgusting orange glow in my office that is making this site look so rancid!

Seriously, ABC has some geniuses in their marketing department, they couldn't have asked for anything more than this. Watching MNF the other night, we were like "What in the hell was that?!" during the opening of the game. After bitching about no more clashing helmets of the opposing teams and using a piano and whatever the hell instead of the normal beat to "ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!" I mean seriously, other than the actual announcers, we need to go back to the days of "WE GOT FRANK AND AL AND DAN....WE'RE GONNA GET THE KICK STARTED!" That was the good music. But anyways back to my point -- everyone is blowing up over the desperate housewife chick who got naked and jumped in Tamp-On's arms....do you realize how much publicity this is getting for their show? They don't have to pay for these advertisements and everyone is talking about it! That show is going to blow up! Hell - I'm even going to watch for the same reason I started watching Days of our Lives. I watched that because I discovered how gorgeous Krista Allen is. Well - I'm discovering very quickly how gorgeous Eva Longoria

Ex-Sea-Gal Amber is in Maxim this month! Giddy up! That deserves a picture above, she's hot. Man I'm girl-crazy today huh? Let's continue with that thought as I show you a picture of my new winamp skin. I'm quickly falling for Catherine Zeta-Jones...never thought she was hot until a few months ago, and now - wow.

New MP3 is up. New Picture of the Day is up. New Wil$on picture is up.

What I am listening to as I type this: Norah Jones - Nightengale

November 16, 2004

Norah Jones is hot. Eva Longoria is smoking hot. They're in a competition right now with regards to who is hotter, but I think Eva is prevailing in my mind right now. Just thought I'd inform you of that.

Chilled out and slept last night, that's it. Seriously. Payday was needed strongly, slapped a nice payment into my Roth today, it's doing quite well, I hadn't checked on it lately but it's gone from -3% up to +4% in just a couple months, guess the market is doing better huh? It's also nice that my 403B plan is up about 12% overall. Yup, just thought I'd point that out to you all. I really need a life.

Beaver Creek is calling my name so loud that I bet if you all listened, you could hear it.....4 more days.....

I'm entirely too lazy to put up a new MP3 today - but if I wasn't, it was going to be Ol' Dirty Bastard - Don't You Know. So if you want one go find that one someplace, at least look up the lyrics, they're pretty funny. That's all for today, I'm busy.

November 15, 2004

Wu-Tang suffered a loss this weekend, R.I.P. Ol' Dirty Bastard. I've gotta say, he's the only musician I think I ever gave a speech on in college! Yup, I gave a huge speech on the Wu-Tang Clan in college, discussing all of the members. Wonder how many times a white kid from Iowa has done that? Anways, the MP3 of the day is for the ODB.

Weird that I picked the pic of the day then checked the date on it...very weird.

As for my weekend, it was a busy one. Friday after work I went down south and went out to eat then out for a little while with Riki. Saturday I was up bright and very early and went to Keystone to ride the board for a few 3 or so hours with Tim. Got home, hit up the hot tub, and ended up going to the Springs...where I ended up staying until around halftime of the afternoon games yesterday. Damn Seahawks - seriously, out of 6 times in the red zone, they turn it over 2 times and settle for 4 field goals. I just don't know why we always struggle with that f**king team, they aren't good and we just can't beat them! Even the frickin' Dolphins can beat the Rams! Ah well, worse things have happened.

Checked out the condo in Silverthorn on Saturday, I'll likely be spending quite a bit of time down there. Beaver Creek opening day is this weekend, so who knows, maybe I'll just stay up there all weekend, we'll see ;o) The ChickenHawks play the afternoon game against Miami next weekend, so I can get a good half-day of riding in on Sunday easily.

I don't feel like typing anymore today.

November 12, 2004

The O.C. was so much better last night than it was tonight - I mean, seriously, we're almost back to normal again. One thing bothers me though, Ryan hasn't punched anybody yet, what's up with that?! I pretty much just watched that, did laundry, and read last night, that's pretty much it. Exciting stuff huh?

Got a great weekend put together. Probably going to the Home Depot.....oh wait. In all actuality, I'm going out to eat with Riki tonight then probably go home and go to bed early. Tomorrow, although I'd like to go watch the Orediggers in playoff action here in Golden (even The Locker Room from KBPI will be here for it!), I'm heading up to Keystone instead with Tim. I had no idea how much terrain was open! I went to opening day with Rich Peters 3 years ago and it was shitty with only the Peru and Argentine lifts open - this year - they're ALL open! Apparently even the Outback is open already! Area 51 is open! By the way, do you have ANY idea how cool Area 51 is?!?!? (check out the videos) This is going to rule! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

After snowboarding I'm swinging over to Silverthorne to check out my new winter condo we've got leased through April, my new second home. Sorry Old Chicago - you've been demoted to my third home, now. Tomorrow night I'm heading to the Springs I think....then...SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!! This Sunday only - the Seahawks are playing at the greatest show on turf. The Rams WILL pay for that heartbreaking loss a month and a half ago. They better! Just like I better get to work. Have a splendid weekend.

November 11, 2004

I got my Chimaira DVD, The Dehumanizing Process, in the mail yesterday. Having LOVED them in concert the 3 times I've seen them (especially when they opened for Slipknot), I was a bit disappointed in the concert footage. I give it 3 1/2 stars (out of 5)....review shall come later.....

I just don't realize how anybody could possibly enjoy the NBA. I've always disrespected the athletes for their cockiness. And what I've said about how they play the game has even been taken to the next level. I've always said the players don't try until the second half of the 4th quarter unless they have an opportunity to be the center of attention for a breakaway dunk, that's it. Now we have people like Latrell Spreewell saying he "needs to be able to feed his family" because his $12 million salary just ain't cuttin' it. Now Ron Artest says he needs a month off to work on his rap album. A month off?! Basketball is his job, you can't just take a month off - he just had like 4 months off! He's played like 2 games, now he needs a month off? And on top of that, he said "that way I can focus on giving it 100% the second half when we're concerned about the playoffs" or something like that. So now not only will he only try in the 2nd half of the 4th quarter -- but he will only do that at the end of the season! What a bunch of greedy and lazy guys, seriously. Even my boy Marcus Fizer has to drive around with a loaded gun in his car.....I know I know, this coming from a guy who sleeps with one on his nightstand, but still - in your car?! I just don't how people can stand that garbage.

Sorry for the mini-rant. MP3 of the day will be an instrumental song...and that's about it for today, kinda busy....yeah - actually really busy today. If you're bored, ask sexy Kelly a question - she's good at advice. If you're even more bored, go post something in the forums, yup. See which world leader you're like. Goodbye.

November 10, 2004

And just like that, November is a third over with. This year's snowboarding starts on Saturday for Bryan, I've decided. I'm going to go up Friday night and check out my condo and go for a few runs at Keystone in the morning. Get there early before the lines are big and get out of there before all the fake snow turns to real ice.

Went out to Woody's for Tim's birthday last night. I'm tired today, ended up staying out until 1 or so and up by 6:30, *yawn*....

Oh yeah, click on the advisory on the little weather thing up top.....yee haw!!!!

So here's the deal. There's some bands that I absolutely love, and once in awhile I don't listen to one of their CD's for a long time, the I pop it in.....and it blows me away. Yesterday was one of these days. I've always loved Adrenaline and White Pony. Around The Fur has its moments but isn't anything too fantastic. And the self-titled album, well, it was just there. Even having read the lyrics before, I couldn't understand about 80% of them (given the fact that [next to Skindred] they are the most impossible band to decipher the lyrics of). Last night, I was able to make out the lyrics to a few songs I never could understand. I've listened to it probably 200 times, but Minerva and Needles and Pins blew me away. But alas, the one that I have been enjoying the most for the past couple of days, is today's MP3 of the day. Ladies and Gentlemen, the Deftones have returned to the MP3 page with Bloody Cape.

New pic of the day is up - and whatever you do - don't forget to ask sexy Kelly a question!

November 9, 2004

Relatives are the exception to the "no more happy birthday" clause implemented last July, with that being said - HAPPY BIRTHDAY CORI!!! And since it's the same day, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TIM!!

Ask Sexy Kelly is officially a live and permanent page on fleetmack.com. She's been enjoying this so far, and here's a testimonial from one of her advice-seekers:

"I love sexy Kelly. I already have a new question for kelly tommorrow....
She is fun and even a little flirty.
She would be a good salesperson..... She gives great simple advise......"

So go check out her page and ask away! I have a headache today so I'm going to go down some advil (even though that goes against my morals) and try to get some stuff done. Same MP3 is up as I don't feel like updating this today.

But check it, they've linked my review on slipknotnews.com, found it in my web logs that I was getting a ton of hits from some random site....

November 8, 2004

Please pray for two of my friends, they're both going through some tough times and could use it.

The asksexykelly page has been launched....shoot it! people are loving her and she's loving you! we'll wait awhile to post some results...and remember, you can be held confidential, she won't even tell ME who writes her!

What's up, happy Monday. Had an interesting weekend I suppose you could say. Friday night I went and saw Team America. It was pretty ok, most of the humor was shock-value humor instead of witty humor. That's fun to watch once or twice, but I don't think I could handle watching it more than once more. Imagine this, I watched football all day yesterday, Scuba Eve came over and watched the Seachickens beat the 49ers. 5-3, with a tough road game in St. Louis this weekend, big game - could give us a 2 game divisional lead, we'll see, I have no confidence in my boys right now.

I should get to work now. I'll put up an MP3 I suppose, adios.

November 5, 2004

TGIF, seriously. What a long week, I've kept busy though so it's gone somewhat fast, but still, wow. Looking forward to a low-key weekend. Probably just chill out and watch TV tonight or something along those lines. Saturday I might head over to Jillian's for awhile, then maybe do some BBQ action, or vice versa. Sunday I will (knock on wood) watch the SeaChickens devour the 49ers again, we'll see if we can hold them to 0 points again this time like we did in week 2.

The O.C. was somewhat disappointing last night. There was a few moments of unintentional comedy, such as Marissa's random scream at her mother and when Summer was talking to Seth's toy horse, those were pretty funny. A few too many guys without shirts for my taste and not enough of Seth's witty banter. He did have one comment that almost slipped by me though, when Luke asked him if Summer had called, he subtly said "She hasn't returned my calls since I stopped making them in July." I love how on shows that are on hiatus for 6 months, the characters that still supposedly lived together over that duration talk like they know nothing about what happened to the other one during that time. Luke: "Hey Seth, I've lived with you forever, Summer (the season) is now over (school is starting in November, odd huh?) -- since I've talked to you every single day I have one question, 'have you talked to summer (your girl) lately?' " Seth: "Nope, not since early July." Suddenly Sandy and what's-her-name are remodeling the house. Ryan's girl should be at LEAST 5 months pregnant but looks skinnier than Jessica Alba. This whole episode was messed up. I'll stop now.

Klave and Kris - you'd be proud, I'm currently ripping every Led Zeppelin song ever made. I have some 4-disc box set and another 2 disc box set. exciting stuff.

The Baron's tune-up will be complete today, I pick it up after work then we're ready to go for Snowboarding '04-'05!! GIDDY UP!! I really don't have much interesting to say today, sorry. Have a great weekend.

November 4, 2004

Seriously now, we need more submissions to asksexykelly@gmail.com - she's feeling neglected as she's only got a couple. We need a lot before we can post results....all names will be held confidential. askysexykelly@gmail.com is a great resource for advice for females, males, adults, high schoolers, hell - anyone! you can ask her anything! She'll answer! and she's sexy and hot! Trust me on this one!

Went out to Jackson's/Sun Microsystems Ice Arena last night to watch some hockey and celebrate Mike's b-day with Carrie and Tim and some other guys from Mike's hockey team. What's with the overabundance of gorgeous women in this city lately? They seem to be most everywhere, I'm really enjoying it too.

Tonight is the return of The O.C.!!! I just can't believe how much Rachel Bilson (aka - summer - aka - girl in the above picture) must want me. The amount of desire she must have for me is astronomical. Such a good show, oh man - I'm excited. Note to all: I like women. I know that may seem doubtful after reading that last paragraph, but I assure you, I love women.

I don't really have much to say today really. I miss the NHL. John Kerry showed class yesterday.

I think once the 20th of the month rolls around I'm buying an Olympus Sylus 410 - I'd like to get it before the snowboarding season kicks off. That model can take quicktime movies, so I figured I could bring it up snowboarding and take some little videos riding rails and taking some good jumps and stuff, sounds cool huh?

Buying another plane ticket shortly as well, probably around the 20th (new credit card cycle) to go to Phoenix for my birthday to run a 1/2 marathon with a bunch of people - more details on that as it gets closer. Trips are piling up again, meaning, finances will be low - as always :) Anyways, that's all for now, some new stuff is here and there.

November 3, 2004

Must think happy thoughts to remain sane.

Mmmmm, Krista Allen, the reason I got hooked on Days of our Lives. I love her. Really, I know "love" and "hate" are strong words. I LOVE Krista Allen. #3 hottest woman on Earth....and I've met her....and when I did meet her, I told her (true story) "You are by far the most beautiful woman I've ever laid my eyes on." It's true too, I've never seen Laetitia or Brooke in person. She laughed, must suck having someone tell you that every day of the week, huh? Oh the things I would....ooooooooo, I need to stop.

See how easy that was to cheer me up? Let's keep thinking happy thoughts to keep our spirits alive. Slipknot. Laetitia Casta. Snowboarding season. Pretty girls. 90 Schilling. Southern Comfort. Ashy Larry. Snow. Chimaira DVD arriving in the mail shortly. Ken Salazar beating Pete Coors. Green Tea. Trip to Boston.

Ok, this isn't working as well as planned.....we'll keep going....

Special mood-enhancing MP3 of the day, condo in Silverthorn for the winter, Seahawks, running, Carmella DeCesare, The O.C. coming back on Thursday......happy thoughts.......no more than 4 more years no matter what happens, Iowa State being 1 game out of the lead for the Big 12 North, Marilyn Manson concert, shooting guns, hot waitress at Old Chicago, re-runs of SNL, Family Guy DVDs, my car.

We shall keep our spirits high. And although I have a positive attitude, I can't help but post this picture of the day.

November 2, 2004

Today's the day, I voted before work - did you? Here's 20 reasons why you should vote today.

I had a frickin' nasty nightmare last night. I wasn't in a boiler room with kids jumping rope or anything, but still pretty nasty. Didn't get a hell of a lot of sleep. It's kinda weird because I watched the Sopranos for like, the second time ever last night -- and Tony was having nightmares on that episode too. Maybe that means I need to go on a boat and kill some guy named Pussy, because he seemed to feel better after he did that.

Ok - here's the deal. A new section is coming to Fleetmack.com called Ask Sexy Kelly. Although she hasn't yet provided me with a picture, I can tell you first-hand from the day I met this girl at ISU days before her 19th birthday until when I spoke with her last, yesterday - that she is one of the hottest women on Earth and at the same time she is one of the most honest and helpful. She's going to be here on fleetmack.com from now on to answer any questions you may have to ask. Ask her about relationships, ask her about style, ask her about how there can possibly be so many hot women in Springfield, Missouri (where she lives)...ask her anything, she will answer and will have her own page shortly. Temporarily email her at asksexykelly@gmail.com with questions..... someone better ask her a question today or I'll be pissed :)

You realize this don't you? You realize that the second season of The O.C. starts in just 2 days?! That's even cooler than the fact that when I get home tonight I won't have to watch any election commercials! I don't need to hear how Marilyn Musgrave eats shit or how Pete Coors' beer tastes good, I won't need to hear how there is ANOTHER CLOSE POLL!!! WOW!! A POLL THAT IS CLOSE!! Who the hell cares, just show me the results, I could care less about these polls.

Nelly Furtado has a kickass voice. I literally had about 800 things to say today but I forgot. Special Election Day MP3 of the day is up today only....

Wow, I actually added to this page for once. Not sure if it's really fitting there or not, but whatever.

November 1, 2004

Snow! It snowed last night! It's about f'in time too, seriously - no snow until November?! But yeah, we probably got around 4-5" last night, nice like rice. But knowing Denver that means I'll be wearing shorts and a t-shirt again tomorrow.

Wow, I actually added to this page for once. Not sure if it's really fitting there or not, but whatever.

Had a good weekend. Friday I went out to eat and hit up the hot tub with Tim, Carrie, and Erica. Saturday had the Halloween party - which was a really good time. My camera is hosed so I have no pictures for you, I'll be buying a new camera shortly. I won in both fantasy leagues, the Seahawks won, and the Cyclones won. All in all a really good weekend! Looking forward to a very productive week both at work and away from work.

I am officially (and by officially, I mean I paid for deposit and rent already) a partial-lease-holder of a condo in the mountains for the winter. We got a 6-month lease on a 3br condo with a mountain view in Silverthorn for the season. So yup, now that I have a place to stay all winter and it's paid for, I'll likely be going up to the mountains Friday after work every week and not coming back until Sunday. Giddy the funk up! As Wooderson on Dazed and Confused would say.... "Livin'. L-I-V-I-N."

New MP3 and pic of the day are up. If I get any pix from Halloween emailed to me I'll post them as well. Until then...have a good week!
