A Helpful Husband Is A Good Husband

We took water, cookies, and brownies to the zoo with us in our cooler. We bought a 24 pack of Dasani water at the grocery store for a couple of bucks on sale to share with everyone. Last time we were at the zoo, that amount would buy one bottle of water. It's like going to a movie theater except we... Sign in to see full entry.

I Want Another Birthday

After the day we had yesterday, you couldn't blame Trey for asking for another birthday. We got up and had a breakfast of French toast as a family. Yes, I said, as a family. Breakfast. Us. That's a great way to start the day. He loves it when he gets both his parents at the same time. We tag-team on... Sign in to see full entry.

We're Off To The Zoo

Not this zoo but it is a good picture. Trey has invited a bunch of friends out to celebrate his birthday and we're headed for the zoo. He's pinging off the walls right now and so this is going to be a very short entry this morning. I'll create a new photo album with the pictures that I take today. I... Sign in to see full entry.

I Don't Venture Into the World of Politics Much but . . .

Nearly every entertainer that comes through here does some little blurb about our soldiers and the crowd cheers. Some of them have songs that are dedicated to the soldiers. Some have songs about soldiers. All this is fine and if you like hearing applause, it's an easy trigger. I recently had a... Sign in to see full entry.

We're going to the zoo Tuesday but I saw Animals last night

Eric Burdon and the Animals played in concert last night. I haven't been doing security for the concerts as much as I used to, which has it's own interesting story. I did do security for the Animals and the night before I was down there for Tracy Lawrence. I felt a little bad for about 15 seconds... Sign in to see full entry.

Someone Watches Too Much Simpsons

The entertainers that come through here stay at the casino where I'm in charge of security. I try to make sure that they are safe while they are here. I find out where they are staying and I have surveillance keep a dedicated feed up on the hallway. Most of the entertainers use aliases that their... Sign in to see full entry.

Meet my daughter and her daughter

They were over for the barbeque we had the other day for Trey's birthday. They are going to be moving to PA at the end of the month where my daughter will be going to college. She has a scholarship for Penn State. Side note: I've been working on a post for the results of the Myers-Briggs test that I... Sign in to see full entry.

Yes, Seriously, We Called The Cops To Help With The Lawn

Protect and serve, right? My lawn needs some protection. The best way they could serve right now is stop the encroachment of the desert on my lawn. "Stop, in the name of the law." Most cops either don't make enough money or don't manage their money well enough to live on just on job. Many of them... Sign in to see full entry.

Bloggers Help! I Find Myself Under Attack!

I've seen it coming for the last couple of months but I didn't think it was going to be like this. I should have seen it coming but I was in denial. The desert is trying to reclaim my yard. These are my roses which have done absolutely wonderful this year. I have loved turning the corner when I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Birthday To Trey

He's pretty good with his letters, don't you think? The funny thing is that we forgot that he doesn't like cake. That's not completely true. He's okay with cake. He doesn't like frosting. He's having a party at the zoo next week with his friends so we'll probably do something like brownies as the... Sign in to see full entry.
