After about six months of nagging, We finally painted our kitchen and dining room area.
We chose a green for the kitchen.
The dining room was supposed to be a red color but turned out to be more of a burnt orange, which is good living in Austin, of course the Longhorns need to play better.

Nox Rocks
So I finally took some pictures of the new car.
Crystal thinks the wood makes me look like an old man driving a car.

Life is good
This weekend was excellent! In my fantasy football league I was playing a friend who happens to be a steelers fan and in the NFL, my team (the Broncos) were playing his team the steelers, their record was 4 to 1. His fantasy team name is the Anti-Broncos, so you can bet there is a little rivalry between us. My fantasy team has been struggling and unfortunately so have the Broncos, so I was more then a little worried going into this weekend.
Well I crushed his fantasy team and the Broncos played their best so far this year, scoring 31 points and won the game with an Elam field Goal at the last second.
So I've felt about like this fan, who was actually at the Broncos v. Steelers game.

Quote of the week - pardon the blasphemy
"It's all Christianity, people. The little, stupid differences are nothing next to the big, stupid similarities."
--Bart Simpson
Found this on beliefnet its a well designed site with some pretty good essays and debates.
Anyway thought that was funny, I obviously don't think Christianity is stupid, but I do find it strange that people get so focused on the little differences and forget that each Christian religion strives to be Christ centered.

Booze Cruise
The event was BYOB (Apparently to keep your sanity at State Farm you must develop a sense of humor i.e. Cedric the Entertainer or drink alot) so we were the only couple there without a cooler.

Haircut
Crystal got her haircut yesterday. It was only the second time in the 5 years I have known her that she added any color.

MMMM - That new car smell
So we finally made a decision and bought a car.
We chose a 2007 Chevy Equinox LT.
I'm addicted to the new car smell.
Everybody needs to drive a new car atleast once in their lives.
(I can't find our camera, so I'll add pics later)

Qoute of the Week - excuse the language

Great Short Stories
If any of you like reading or writing short stories, there is a great website that you need to check out.
It's basically a science fiction magazine, although its not too sci-fi in nature, some of the stories are more supernatural stories then science stories. It publishes a new issue each quarter for only $2.50. Each issue has seven or eight short stories that were submitted by amateur writers. They get paid for each published story and not every story submitted is published. Some of the stories are for children/teens and are similar to the Goosebump stories. Most of the stories are very well written and quite enjoyable; it’s a nice way to spend your breaks at work. Also included in each issue is a short story by Orson Scott Card, based on his novel Ender’s Game.
There are also some reviews and other fun stuff in the magazine. The Sixth issue just came out on Friday and is worth checking out.
Have fun reading or if you're more adventurous, have fun writing!
