Finally a good decision from one of the two lousy candidates! Sarah Palin was a Ron Paul supporter and is sick of the Republican /Democrat subborness in just doing the right thing. She's a moose hunter, hockey player, mother of 5. This woman is rock solid! If you are like me and sick and tired of the political stupidity then get a breath of fresh air not seen since Ron Paul. This woman does her own thing whether someone else agrees or not. Good choice McCain your not as much of a bone head as I thought. Check her out and vote for Palin / McCain!
I'm VERY much with you. Yesterday when I watched her speech I was so moved by her speech. It seriously gave me chills because I have never a politician so real.
She has no pull... Sarah is great but with McCain as the head I am not interested. This situation is similar to a girl with a hot body(republican party and Palin) and then she has a nasty face(john mccain) this situation makes me not interested.
Although the title pretty much says it all I figured I'd give some details...
Just to further isolate myself from all other civilization I would like to announce that I have Ringworm on my neck. Not tapeworm, not gummy worms but Ringworm. I thought dogs were the only ones to get this but apparently I'm wrong unless I'm a dog. It originally looked like a hickey, which at the time wasn't all that bad of a deal, until it started growing larger and larger. Hickey's generally don't look this perfectly round and "ring like". I consulted Lisa Reaves for this information, apparently she's got a lot of history dealing with this kind of thing. Luckily the last few days I've gotten it under control....
It's amazing how quickly life spins you around and slaps you in the face. The things that I neglected to do years ago come back to haunt me and things that I did do I'm being punished for. Why didn't I just floss my teeth when the dentist told me to? I floss now almost every day and now I'm almost addicted to flossing. Better than some of my previous addictions... Playing my ear phones max volume is coming back to bite me now that I am constantly saying "huh" when someone is talking to me. The two week disposable contacts that I wear for 9 months have finally caused little styes on my astigmatic eye balls. Astigmatic may have just been a word that I created but it sounds great. Just been a realization that I've come to lately that I'm getting old. Grey hairs seem to be multiplying by the thousands!
I was putting the mongrels in their pin yesterday and I happened to look over and a monster tree was relaxing on my roof. I now have a huge hole from this telephone pole sized tree that crashed into my house. I didn't hear it but it's pretty bad.
Misty, my Golden Retriever/German Sheperd, is a total freak of nature. I think the 3 month old scrums with me on the living room floor have paid off. She's gotten in several fights with a Pitt Bull, chow, and a Great Pieranese. Each one of these dogs I thought were going to kill her but I'm telling you she's a dog fighting genius! I'm really really curious to see what the ceiling is for her...I mean she beat the snot out of a 3 yr old Pitt Bull. I was so proud, like a dad after his son's first intentional headbutt. Does anybody have a dog that they'd like to put up against Misty? I've tried to contact Vick but my calls go unanswered.
Jared, Jakey just erased 35 messages about his free X-Box with 6 games that he was offering to some "nice boy" in Denver. Little does he know it is April fools month for him!
hey - we're in the processing of moving. i came across a bunch of stuff from FC. on a little piece of paper written in your handwritting it said "bud jew." remember what that means? i found some other great stuff from you that made me laugh.
Jared, Jake's car was recently mistaken for the oscar mayer wiene mobile. Hope you haven't had any more break-in's to yours but I'm sure all they got was your cosmopolitan magazines. Give me a call sometime egghead.
oh man, i hope things get better, although im sure they have since its now july and that was back in march...saw your daddy the other day, he came to stay with us..hope you are well!
Hey there, sorry about the delayed response! We're all well. Feel free to drop Kody an email: marrs2@roadrunner.com. We'd love to hear how things are going (hopefully better than when you wrote this post).
all of my trips are in the process of being changed - I'll let you know when I am going to be in ATL - was supposed to be going to Dallas this weekend for work, but that got cancelled and moved to October :(
I was so excited when I thought you had a new post but this is all we get?? I guess you're just sharing all of your knowledge with us in this post....j/k :) Hope you're doing well.
I'm with Connie, I couldn't believe it when I saw your name lit up. Hey, Andrew did GREAT on his first day of practice. He looked like a natural out there. :)
Things I didn't like as a kid: my first name Will which is exactly why 90% of my nicknames are related to it.
Here we go:
After seeing a company's sign related to boating I received the name "Will Charter" (This one was quite a sore spot for me...Josh wore this one out. If you had a vocabulary use counter for Josh the two words Will and Charter might be his most frequent and overused words of all time.)
Willamena....I don't have any clue why I got called this
Willy B...you figure it out. Atlanta Zoo is your first clue
Willy Wonka...This one I actually like and still do. I'm quite honered to accept this name.
Chomps...Josh maybe can explain this one
Bochy....I received this nickname after Josh and Jeb deceived me into thinking any baseball card that had the first name "Bruce" was worth money. All of a sudden I was at the baseball card shop trying to buy Bruce Bochy, Bruce Benedict, and anyone else with the name Bruce that I could get my hands on.
momma's.....One might could argue that I was a momma's boy and I got lit up for it.
Jeb, Josh, and Jake....there's your start I'm sure there are 50 more that you can add and explain to the list.
Please exclude generic names that I was called such as "Egghead", "Biscuit", and "Bowl cut".
Hey Jared...It's Heather Vartiak from Roswell CoC...Just found this site and looking up people...Anyway, how is life treating you?...I'm a Mrs. :)...Never thought it would happen...Just another sign that there IS a God :)
P.s. The nickname I give you that you never knew about was : "the cute reaves boy I'd like to date"...more of a phrase you could say...obviously the latter I gave up on, but the first half I still agree with :)...Hope that's not too generic
I didn't know that story! Which lady was it? BTW I'm getting bored with my music, any suggestions? Also Will needs some soccer cleats. Any connections there?
The kids miss you too :( Sarah loves the pic on your blog. Molly out of the blue the other day said, Uncle Jared is nice. It doesn't get much better than that! Thanks for the song suggestions, you gave me a flood of them. I look forward to trying them. I usually like all your suggesions on music. What was the one you wrote down for the kids over Xmas? Sarah's is saying when she sees you again she wants to rob some more houses (what does that mean?) and buy lots of candy. It may not seem like it to you but chasing deer and chopping trees sounds like fun! I always hating staying at a job very long because they keep piling more and more on you the more responsible you get, so I always quit after a couple years. Are you selling? Where you going? Will started soccer Saturday. He's got some talented people around him. Only the minority don't know how to play soccer here and they are all good. Footwork is amazing. I'm glad he is finally getting to play. I hope I can talk Sarah into playing. She
(thought I lost this post too) She's embaressed because there aren't many girls that play here. She cares what people think more than I did?? Hopefully I can talk her into it though. She is too good not to play. Take care sweet brother and keep your head up. That job could get you down if you let it. Remeber how much we love you!
Hey Jared - how are you? I called you awhile back did you get my voicemail? I thought about you the other day when a black altima about hit me. It brought back a horrible memory of you pretending to dry us both into the lake at FC. Remember that? Nix family is doing well. Blair is crazy, but so much fun. Logan is precious and already a Momma's boy! It kills Jared. We'd love to have you come visit. We need to catch up.
hey we got your message last night. good to hear from you. it's been a busy weekend. will call you next week. i was bored out of my mind, but i did check out the website...looks really good.
I wish I would have had the soccer coaching help page that you have a link to when I was coaching the wee ones. I had no idea what I was doing. Great job by the way.
I'm easily impressed with techy stuff as I'm impaired in that realm, but it looks awesome to me. I'm looking forward to seeing Abby on the field. Good job, coach.
okay Jer - I don't see you sticking your neck out and posting your worst pic. Josh says we ARE on for soccer (which is probably a good idea since WE can't get the kid to even put the ball on the ground!) so do I just find the website or what?
Not too much is going on...I'm ready for August though, between going to Disney and Washington state next month, I'm pretty excited. Work is going well, although we're not as busy as we'd like to be. Still trying to get the problems worked out with my car, which stinks, and trying to make the Greece trip happen next May (which would be awesome!!). Hope you are doing well. I still can't wait to come back up and visit all of you sometime.
Jared, lets just say you have "drunken the koolaid" when it comes to the story about Kobe. That girl was known as a seductress and she went to his hotel romm scantily clad for one purpose only. Dont think I am excusing his actions, but she was party to it. As for Vick, maybe you are right that too much has been made about these dogs. I think most fans have just had it with him though, especially after he made that nice gesture to Atl fans. Just that deserves getting booted if you ask me.
Hey! I was at Mimi's and G-dad's yesterday! Alan and I stopped through on our way home from Alabama. Nice website! So what else are you up to? Besides dating Lindsey Lohan. Surely you can do better than that? :)
