HA!

I wonder how much Texas would go for?

I have to start sleeping. Lately I haven't been able to sleep without having really weird dreams of things that didn't happen, but are so real in nature, that I would go on record as saying they did. The difficulty of having to distinguish between dream and reality is getting really annoying.

*********2004... THE YEAR OF THE WEDDING*********

It seems like everyone I know is getting married in 2004!

This past weekend hosted Damian's post wedding reception! Wow! Congratulations again go out to Dame's and his new wife as well as The General and his! Next up on the walk will be the Hza getting married on the 28th of February. And in October 2004... will be me.

Along with several other people that I know throughout the various other walks of life that I've met are also getting married.

It's truly the year of the wedding.

Freaky, huh?

Who'd have thunk (yes, thunk) that I'd be getting married. Unfortunately, Kris is getting on my nerves by talking about the wedding... AND NOTHING ELSE. I understand, it's a time of excitement. And it's not that I'm not excited myself, but I can't seem to have a normal conversation with her anymore without her leading it back around to getting married, the ceremony, the bridesmaids, the groomsmen, flowers, etc. We still have around nine months to plan. She's obsessed with getting married... we can't even watch a movie without her pausing it to tell me about the 95 classic pictures that she wants taken, or as soon as I walk through the door we get to go straight to talking about the wedding and something else cool that she's seen.

It's driving me mad I tell you.

*******FIANLLY! IT'S ALMOST HERE!!!!********

As many of you know... or hell... maybe you don't know, but I'm sure I've subjected many of you to zombie movies throughout the years. And finally, it has come about! The long await revamp of George Romero's classic 3 1/2 hour long zombie apocalyptic nightmare is here... Dawn of the Dead!

Yes, you know I'll be checking this out opening night.
Many a year ago, I subjected Ma Sligar and Aron Toungate to this visual gore-a-thon... and surprisingly enough, they completely detested the movie. I'm sure they'll want to check out the new version though... maybe they'll even show it at the Alamo Drafthouse!

Speaking of which, back in September when Cabin Fever came out, Kris and I went out to see it at the Alamo Drafthouse. Cabin Fever should be coming out soon, and just to let those who have yet to see it, be warned. Do not eat while watching this movie. I almost lost my movie burger thing after the girl started shaving her legs.

Heh heh heh.

Just an update... thought you all should know.

**********KING SIZE BED NIGHTMARES*********

Okay, we have a king size bed. Now you'd figure that you would have plenty of room to sleep. Oh, no. Not in my bed. Kris absolutely has to sleep, not right beside me, but freakin' on TOP OF ME. This makes it very uncomfortable if I want to turn over throughout the course of the night. Not to mention that she pushes me to the very brink of falling off the bed. I guess she's still used to sleeping on that full size mattress that we once had... but for the last two months, I've had all of a hand's width of space to turn over in my sleep.

And she keeps changing the clock by the bed!!! Back when I was single, I used to set my alarm clock forty minutes ahead of schedule, so I could be blasted awake by country music (because who would want to listen to that? It makes you get up and turn it off at least) and then hit the snooze button, comfortable in the thought that I still had time to sleep. However, now it's a game of roulette with the alarm clock. For the past year we had the clock always twenty minutes ahead of time... we move into the new apartment, and she starts setting it either twenty minutes ahead (which, as I mentioned, we're used to) or ten minutes the next day or thirty minutes the day after that. I have no clue as to what time it is.

At least until today. My father gave us an old nightstand so I could have it on my side of the bed. And this morning, fed up with the uncertainty of morning time, I finally installed batteries in my antique retro looking alarm clock. So, sucks to her assmar. She won't be messing with my mind with all her tomfoolery.

I just really wanted to use the work tomfoolery in a sentence. That's why I wrote this entire article.

****ANOTHER TINY CREEP TOWARDS TECHNOLOGY****

As Kris and I keep taking small steps into what we are referring to as "The New Age" or "The Age of Enlightenment" we look back upon the last year and wonder how in the hell we survived without the use of cell phones and cable TV. Yes, that's right! We're advancing into the world of Time Warner Cable!

It's been so long since I've been able to comfortably enjoy cable TV, I'm not quite sure how I'll adjust to it. I guess we'll see come the summer, whether cable TV has forced an extra 15-20 pounds on me or not.

*****IT'S A BARREN WASTELAND IN THE APARTMENT*****

It's a really strange thing to see the apartment now, after the 7 1/2 foot tall Christmas tree has been taken down...

Happy New Year to all! Albeit, a few days late, but the fact that I wish everyone a good year is what counts! Congratulations go out to the General and Dames for getting married over the past holiday season, as well as Amber Nichols for getting hitched to Dan Nichols! Congratulations to all!

Let's see... soon it's going to be Hai, then probably me (yikes!) and eventually Mike and Joe and Troy will have to take the walk of walks...
