Boogity Boogity Boogity Let's Go Racing!!!!!!!!!!!

WooHoo Race day at the Mile! Holy Cow did we get to see a ton of drivers! Kirk got so many autographs and took my picture with about 10 drivers. It was awesome. I love this photo of Kenny Wallace. He is so damn funny! I called him sweetie. I felt like a giddy schoolgirl around these guys. If it was Dale Jr though, I think I woulda peed myself and then maybe, just MAYBE, I would have to ability to say um hi or something unintelligent like that. Truex Jr walked right by us but we had no clue that the driver's meeting was just getting out so we realized it too late. We did get Bill Elliott's autograph. That was cool. I met Carl Edwards (he's cute in person) and his crew cheif plus we met Bono (pronounced BohNoh not BahNoh like in U2). I had to run and catch him then ask if he was Bono so that I knew I had the right guy. Kirk pointed him out and I said well if you think it's him, yell his name. He says what if it's not? Well, he'll IGNORE the wrong name. Kirk didn't want to run after him so being the good wife, I did.

Found a cute Dale Jr bib shorts and shirt outfit for Donovan and Sophia can wear it too when she's bigger. It's pretty ambiguous. I got a Jr tank top and a golf shirt style tee. We got a lot of other stuff but since it's after 1am, I can't remember what they all are.

The race was rained out but oh well. It certainly cooled off from the 114 that it was in the bleachers. I'm glad we were in the infield though I'm sure it was close to 100 out there. Got a little burnt on my shoulders but oh well.

I'll post more photos tomorrow (later today?).

I Can't Wait

I know of no one who agrees with me that Jason Mewes is hot. This is a bad example and this is definately NOT hot. That's ok though. I remember the good, forget the bad. I make no excuses for my taste*. For fans of Clerks , Chasing Amy , Dogma , Jay and Silent Bob , etc , check it out: P.S. I've been working 'til 11 or midnight most nights so I'm pooped. I'll blog more. I promise. Was I missed though? * Or lack thereof to some people

This, That and The Other

I can already tell that Thanksgiving and Christmas are going to suck ass even more than it normally would at my job. Last night, a guy was telling me how much he gave me, how much he was supposed to get back and THEN told me what order to give it back to him in. Um? Sir? I'm not a twit, ok, I am a twit, but I'm not an idiot. Ok, sometimes I can be. Like that time I moved up to Wisconsin in the middle of a blizzard from nice, warm Tucson, AZ for a dumb boy and we broke up less than two months later. Yeah that sucked but my point is: I've been in retail, just about every job one could have except store manager, for about oh, 19 years. I think I know what I'm doing when it comes to giving change back. Don't talk to me like I'm a 16 yr old kid who's working his first job and doesn't give a shit what kind of work ethic he has. I care about you as a customer but when you're a dick to me and pissing off everyone in my line so they are dicks to me ? Well, ...

This Has To Be Said

I haven't blogged in 8 months. We bought a house, still unpacking, school started. You know, life. I felt the need, the urgent need to blog about the Adrian Peterson situation today. I am full of all sorts of feelings and had to write about it. I would love to hear your thoughts on this whole thing. No really, I would. I don't feel I was a douchebag in my writing so all I ask is you not be a douchebag in your response. Thanks. My thoughts on the Adrian Peterson situation (but first, some backstory): I was spanked as a child. I'm pretty sure most of us that grew up in the 80s were. Until the summer between 5th and 6th grade I lived in Charelston, SC and from 6th to 11th grade, North Chicaco, IL. I have seen every form of discipline doled out on a child. I've seen spankings, beatings, hairbrushes smacked into heads, spoons hitting the tops of heads, whips, belts and even switches. I've seen it all. Most of you know that my son is named after a little boy who ...
