It is Friday! Time for a relaxing weekend :)
Well, tonight is Friday and I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend. Amanda is gone for the weekend due to a bachelorette party in the Dells. Sun Prairie has its Corn Festival this weekend so it will be good to get some corn, drink some beer, and shit through a screen door without hitting a wire ( Read more... ) -
OOOOOPS. I again forgot about this journal thing :)
Well everyone, I'm back. Sorry it has been such a long time. Things with me have been busy to say the least. Between weddings (attending and being part of one), reunions, golf lessons and outings (yes, I said golf), planning a fish outing for when John is home on leave . . . . . Do I sound like a commercial for some Bubble Bath?!?!?!? I think ( Read more... ) -
Revelation
As most of you know, I was diagnosed with MS this past March. Since then I have been going through various feelings and emotions that go along with such a diagnosis. All along I put on this strong exterior letting people know that I was OK and that everything was going to be fine. The truth of the matter is, that inside I was a wreck and ( Read more... ) -
SummerFest Rocked!!
Tonight Paul, Kim, and I sent down to MILWAUKEE for SummerFest. We met up with some college friends of mine and saw Marty Casey and the Lovehammers. Marty Casey is the guy who took 2nd place in the search for the new INXS singer last year on TV. They put on a very good show. The important thing was that I got to hang out with some good friends.

A call from the past
Tonight I was sitting in my office doing bills and the phone rang. The number that appeared began with the area code where I grew up in Ohio. When I said hello, this voice says "Hey Uncle Corey, it's Brandon." Holy Shit!!! My nephew who is 24 and has had his share of troubles called me just to say HI. I thought that was awesome. I haven't ( Read more... ) -
A nice talk with Miss Amanda
Well, Amanda and I met for a conversation tonight. When I found her, she had died her hair a darker color and she looked totally HOT! I mean I was looking forward to seeing her again but damn, she took my breath away. We got a booth and began our talk. I'm not going to go into everything but I feel a ton better now that we have talked. She ( Read more... ) -
Empty Heart
Tonight was Rythm and Booms, Madison's version of setting the sky on fire. I love fireworks and look forward to watching them every year. Not feeling like fighting a crowd of 300,000, a few of us gathered in a parking lot a safe distance from the "action". I was fine until the show started. That's when a bunch of emotions started running ( Read more... ) -
Saturday Night
Sitting here watching Pearl Jam on VH1 Story Tellers chilling because the local fireworks were canceled due to a line of storms on the horizon. Pearl Jam hit it big early in my college career at Illinois State University and I have to admit that I enjoy their music. The one thing I have to say is how much music effects our everyday lives. Songs ( Read more... ) -
One Day at a Time
"One Day at a Time" is a statement that covers so many aspects of everyday life. I'll almost 34 and I can remember hearing people say that when I was young. At the time, I didn't know what they meant. However, I started to realize the effectiveness of "One Day at a Time". Now it seems that there isn't a day where it goes "One Day at a Time".
