Roll on Columbia Roll on.......

Ok so the Red river is not the Columbia, and it really doesn't even roll is kinda putzes along, but floating down it fun and you don't run the same risks as the mighty Columbia. So on Sunday we packed up the car and got a bag of ice for a nice, 5 hour float down the river. It was great. We saw tons of turtles, a snake and a vulutre. Only a few aplances in the river and no cars. Though I must say I was pooped at the end. It was a great way to spend a weekend.

Speaking of weekends, Mike came up from Alambama for the long weekend which was fun. He got a brand new Honda Element, black. We hung around and watche a lot of real bad movies. He Floated down the river with us. He should be getting his airframe soon and he also has to pick is new duty station. Eh, in all it was a good time.
Thursday, last thursday I spent the morning watching around 2800 folk all dressed in the new ACU's, yeah it was the division review. It was long and toasty and very cool. If you stuck it out for the full 2 hours you got to see a fly over of the four major airframes, and the towed artillery pieces. I took Four rolls of pictures. I'll get them on disk don't worry. Ok well Alton Brown is on and I should watch.

..a long time ago.......

We all know the rest don't we, at least the Star Wars fans out there do. Yep we went and saw the third star wars, and it was fabulous. It all comes full circle in a great display of light sabers and a younger more equiped R2D2. With my coke slushie and box of raisinette, which where half gone by the first scene, we enjoyed the whole movie. There are some seriously graphic scene, with burning flesh and such but they are done nicely, if you can do that sort of thing nicely. Bad acting is good acting here and sunsets from your childhood movie going memory apear on the screen in the form of two suns setting over the sandunes. It's like watching old family movies and finding out the secrets that until now have gone unspoken. Do go see it if your a fan.

send in the clones

To quote a Simpsons tree house of horor, Ross played a softball game last night. Yeah, called after 2 innings because the score was 23 to 1, them. It was the air force softball team, with matching uniforms, you must say that kinda snotty. Yeah that thought they were special with those uniforms, but we all know the truth, CLONES. A military plot to create overly good softball players to send to the olympics. Ok so they were good, but their pitcher had trouble, just a little. It was the matching uniforms and hats. Enough about the air force and their matching uniforms.

Just another day at work today, cross your fingers that nothing strange happens. Yesterrday way a big day with lots of people and only a few snotty ones. Josh takes over as manger today while Mettie goes to the other side of the pond for two weeks. Terri's got the day off. We'll see if the bathroom stinks today and if it does, I'm not going to mop, the smell it to much to get the cleaning closet. It almost made me puck yesterday, soooo close. YUCK. Weather is good and so Im going to walk, need the exercise because I didn't do it this morning. Well off to get ready for the day.

Strange and interesing things

Hey, well another day and nothing much to talk about. Currently on a new job hunt to find a place that's more interesting and more clean. All that microbiology has made me want clean things but then again I don't really get paid enough to care. I was accepted to Austin Peay State University on friday which is good. It wasn't like I wasn't going to get in but it does feel good to be accepted. I won't start until next june though because of the way the program works. Oh well that gives me a whole year to make money and pay for school and get a new computer. Other nifty things. Ross and I went to the customs museum in Clarksville. It was very nice. Ned, who is the executive director comes in for lunch every day at the restaurant. We got to meet the resident reptile, named tiggie, she lives in the museum store and comes out now and then to greet people. MMMMM what eles. Finished the back side of the sweater for my knitting class and finished the felted tote that I was making, it turned out great, check out the before and after pictures. Well not much eles happening around these parts so check back latter.

BASEBALL

Ok so it was actually SOFTBALL but it was fun to watch my husband play. Lots of good fun killing the other team, 17 to 2. There will be another game tomorrow, but how we will work out getting there will be another story. I had to pull out all the sock that I knitted and start again this afternoon because I found an extra stich then I couldn't get the stiches back on the needle so there it all went. That's ok I decides because the stiches were a little bit to loose compaired to the other sock. And I love to knit the socks and I get to do it all over again. Work was work. Slowish and not too bad. I made enough to cover my day. We are highering a bunch more people and I wonder what that will bring. Well other than getting my new Cook's Illustrated and making very good pizza, that I got to use my fresh grown basil on my day was a day.
Good night

Monday Morning

Good Morning, so another weekend has come and gone and well I've learned one thing, Sideways was a strange movie. Good yes, but I see why it was not best picture. We rented it and watched it but it was ot what I thought, and I learned nothing about wine that I already didn't know. I did learn that the saba is a very durable car though. Oh well, it was something to watch, which was not your standard armerican happy ending movie. I haven't seen million dollar baby but i have a feeling that it shouldn't have won either. Enough about movies. I finished my first sock this last week. I have to say that my Kitchner stich has a ways to go before I can be a master knitter, maybe one day. But it's a sock and it fits perfectly. I'm going to sign up for a sock class at the quilting place so I can learn a few other things first. I've started the second sock just in time for the warm weather to set in. Hell if I start my sweaers now I'll be ready for the winter, and begin the summers in winter i'll be set. Ok Well I have to go to work soon, should have some sock photo's posted.
