I've got the best things in life, no money can buy

Money schmoney. Everyday I wake up with 2 people I love. We have a nice roof over our head. We both have transportation. WE HAVE OUR HEALTH. We have a chance to better ourselves. We have opportunity. The other day I wrote about how I thought life was comparable to a theme park . I realize now it doesn't matter 'how long the line is' or 'if we are scared' or not. What matters is having that person next to you on the ride that is willing to hold your to comfort you before it gets tough, hold on really tight while things are scary, and be there to smile about it in the end. I happen to have that person, and that's all that matters. Here are a few pictures for everyone to enjoy.

Another day, another dollar, almost literally.

I also love sports and thought the other day what it would be like to play college golf or swimming, but I didn't do that either. I ju...

I just don't get some people.

I have always said I will listen to anything, music that is. That was until I visited The Chesterfield on Saturday and went to "The Battle of the Bands". Typically I leave that place after a night of great music, Saturday I felt like walking in front of oncoming traffic. We showed up early, but not early enough. The table I had reserved for our group was occupied by a bunch of chumps from the Weekender, who thought because they were judges that the table with the reserved sign on it had to be for them. Summer had friends meeting us there from her work, and we had told them we'd have a seat. I was annoyed by the whole deal, beings that one of the chumps is one of my good friends. (Mind you it isn't that big of a deal to me, but when you have a pregnant woman that expects something, and doesn't get it then it automatically becomes a big deal) Anyways they didn't move, Summer wants to kill Derek, and he lost major points in my book. I stood next to them about 15...
