My dad's back seems to be getting much better, as we went fishing over the weekend. Nat caught the first fish, but other than that, nobody caught a thing. There were some people jumping off the bridge into the lake where we fish, so that was entertaining.

I asked Nat what she wished she had. She says, 3 eyes. I ask why and she responds, "Duh daddy, so I can be better at Eye Spy". I lost it.

What's up with you?

• QOTD: How was your weekend?

QOTD: Fun weekend. Went back to my alma mater for "Reunion Weekend." It's good to go back and see how campus is changing (or has stayed the same). Every time I go back I realize how much I loved college and how lucky I was to go to such a great school like the University of Dayton.

Gonna study some more for my menu test for my new job tomorrow

QOTD: Weekend was pretty good, just did yard work and played some NCAA Football.

Gonna be a sad day for a lot of folks with the passing of Carlin.

Agreed.. the guy could make people laugh, and he was good at it...

QOTD. Started the ball running on "wedding planning". We were set for a Sept 2010 wedding, but we got a great deal on the price of the reception if we booked for Memorial/Labor Day reception (saved $5k). So we decided to do Memorial Day, knowing that more people would be around then, plus made the party 12-5, so people don't have to really worry about getting up early the next day for work..

Otherwise my weekend was pretty much the same - worked..

Sad to hear about Carlin.

He had a funny joke in one of his comedy specials about the Comedian Heart Attack Olympics, how Richard Pryor had a heart attack, Carlin had a heart attack, Pryor set himself on fire and Carlins said "forget that - i'm just gonna have another heart attack."

My weekend was spent playing some NCAA Football 09 demo and watching a ton of movies.

Still getting adjusted to our newborn baby. I have this week off as well, then go back to work on Monday June 30.
We took him to his first Birthday party on Sat and he did good, he slept most of it and only got up twice for feedings. Then spent some time with the NCAA 09 demo, only 3 more weeks to go.

How do some of you guys juggle your time with gaming and raising a newborn baby?

[Jonesey]

yay! Happy Birthday to me!
