New Week Randomness….
Posted by Chuck on November 3rd, 2008
The weekend is over and it’s time for another week of traveling and work. I’m actually home today which will be my only day in town till Friday afternoon. I’ll be leaving tomorrow morning after I vote and heading to Western Tennessee once again. In my absence I’ve got some excitement planned for you. It seems Sher of It’s Sherendipity has agreed to spend a little time here in the world of Chuck. She’s quite entertaining on her blog, I’m sure she’ll be doubly so here! If there’s anyone else out there who’s interested in blogging here in my prolonged absence, just let me know. I’ll give you the keys to the place, just be sure to clean up after yourself once you’re done!
I did something I thought I’d never do this past Saturday. No, I didn’t partake in any man2man lovin’….get your heads out of the gutter. No, I put up our Christmas tree. Before you get all “you’re worse than Wal*Mart” on me, let me clarify. For five years now we’ve had this beautiful nine foot tree, but lately we kind of decided we’re tired of having one so big. It’s way too tall, and really too big around. (Kinda like me.) It takes up an entire corner of the living room. We ordered a seven and a half foot pre-lit one off QVC last week (gotta love that “easy pay” feature) and it arrived this past Friday. I wanted to set it up to see if 1. we wanted to keep it and 2. if it was going to fit where we wanted it to go. I didn’t decorate it or anything, just set it up and plugged it in. During this time my fifteen year old daughter had been taking a nap. About an hour later she emerged from her room and looked down into the living room (we have an over look area from the hall upstairs) and said, “Wow, how long have I been asleep? Is it Christmas already?” LOL So yeah, I think we’ll keep it. And we might as well keep it up and then decorate it sometime after Thanksgiving. Maybe it’ll help me get in the Spirit a little early this year.
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a picture of my dog, Trooper. I took this one earlier this morning while he was trying to enjoy one of his many daily naps on the couch. Trooper and I haven’t been getting a long too well lately. He’s constantly acting like he’s pissed at me and I’m not sure what I’ve done to deserve such treatment. Maybe he’s mad that I’m not home much anymore. Whatever it is it’s gotta stop or I’ll be taking his furry ass to a doggy psychologist.
Week before last my hotel room in Memphis was decorated in a golfing motif. I’m not much for decoration. Just give me a High Def flat screen, a comfortable bed and an industrial strength toilet and I’m a happy traveler. But I did think this picture on the wall was pretty funny, in a perverted kinda way.
You know me, I’m always trying to find some way to incorporate something sexual into every post. I personally have been having a lot of wood lately. Especially in the mornings. Maybe one of these days I’ll get a chance to use it! I’m sure there are quite a few of you who have done your fair share of studying the “wood anatomy”….Heh!
Y’all have a super week and be sure to go out tomorrow and exercise your right to vote. And while you’re at it be sure to say no to Socialism!
