Congratulations! Since I'm out of the loop with my friends so much, what with everything going on in life that demands all of my attention (community service, girlfriend, dog, cat, eating), I found out by the Hza's Website that The General and his wife are expecting! Congratulations! I'm expecting it to be eerily similar to the web-comic which, I'm assuming, has met it's untimely demise. Congratulations J!

Shaved in the nick of time. I finally shaved off that damn beard. You can all rest easy now.

Give me a brake. Sunday we managed to clean up the apartment, unpack the rest of the boxes (only after six months of living there), rearrange furniture, and spend $500 on brakes. Great fun. Kris had managed to completely dismantle her brake system. Her drivers side front brake pad was COMPLETELY GONE. The mechanics took us out to see it and apparently we became walking legends as of that point to the whole braking community. Her back brake pads were cracked, her front brakes were completely destroyed. All in all, we spent about $500.
Saturday night was fun though, when we went out to dinner with another couple. Katrina and Steven took us to a place called The Eastside Cafe. WOW. I thought as we were driving "Eastside Cafe" which would incur thoughts of the east side of Austin which relates to gunfire, driveby's, and prostitution.
But far be it from that. The food was incredible, not overly priced, and the atmosphere was equivalent to Kerby Lane Cafe. Very cool.
But we lost $500! That's just a hit we didn't need right now.
At least her car works and the apartment's clean, huh?
Oh yeah, a thanks goes out to Bubba as he's providing us with a brand new table and chairs so we can stop eating on the couch!

******BE PREPARED*******
Okay, many people didn't really dig the goatee, so I had shaved it off for awhile and then grew it back (didn't want to look weird in Hai's wedding photos). Well, because I generally hate shaving because it's such a nuisance, I've decided to grow a ..... are you waiting with baited breath?... a beard. And I'm here to tell you, I don't look good with a beard.
Kris wants me to keep it. At least for awhile longer. You know what I want to try? Lazer Hair Removal on my face. So I wouldn't have to shave for several months. It's so time consuming and annoying. Yeah, I know what you're thinking, it only takes a couple of minutes... But that's a couple of minutes more each morning that I could sleep! We'll see how it goes...

******WENDY'S LOVES ME******
I guess they must have been being reviewed today by their head management or something. The usual greeting I get when I walk through the door of your local, neighborhood Wendy's is the smell of stale fries and someone shouting out an order in the background. But oh no, not today.
As soon as I opened the door, you'd have thought I was a revered hero of the fast food world. I was greeted by no less then five different employee's of `Good today sir' and `How can I help you?' and what's more, `Please, come to my register, I have an unrelenting desire to assist you with whatever you may need'...
It was kinda' creepy. However, my food was already out on the tray before I could finish my order, and they were all smiles about it.
Sure 'nuff, as I carry my hot and fresh, yes fresh, food to the table, I notice about 10-15 head Wendy's honcho's inspecting their service. I was promptly accosted by them as they asked me questions such as `How was your service?' and `How is your food?'.
In further news: I thought it was supposed to be sunny and beautiful today...
*****ADULT HAPPY MEALS??*****
But is there a toy inside?
I think for adult happy meals, you should get a ticket to have a free beer or glass of wine, cause you know, for the moment at least, it's supposed to be healthy to drink two alcoholic beverages a day. Or maybe they could put in some adult kind of toy, like a swiss army knife or hell, maybe some dirty PrON! That would give some people some exercise! At least have some fun with the Adult Happy Meals...

*****SWEET, SWEET SLEEP*****
Where have you gone, my long, lost friend? Where are you?
Because in the middle of the night, when my girlfriend snores like a banshee, when the cat decides to remodel the apartment by knocking plates and glasses off the counter, and our dog decides that he wants to play... when the children upstairs lament about toys or drop kick (insert item here) across the apartment or decide to fly off the couch and begin screaming to mommy and daddy why their bones broke through their skin.... where are you then? Why have you left me? Did I hurt you?
Just come back! Sleep, my baby, just come back!
(If I had WinAmp or something, there would be a nice, cheesy Boyz II Men song playing in the background while you have been reading this...)
Sleep... how I miss you...
