So... I'm back...

Sorry.  It has been a really long time.

A lot has happened the last couple of months.  Here are some of the high lights.

I finally finished Eclipse.  The third in the Twilight series.  It was the best one yet.  It didn't piss me off at all.  It was actually a good read.  I only wish she would've did that with the first two.  Let hope she's finishes strong.  I'll be even madder if not.  (Emails may be sent!)  I've read six other books since.  I think my favorites are the Chronicles of Vladimir Tod.  It happens to be another vampire series.  I'm pretty sure I like it better than Twilight.  No, I'm positive.  (There's an oxymoron if I ever saw one.)  Anyway, if you wanna know what else I've read or would like to discuss, call or email.  Also, I'll take any suggestions on reading material.  Preferably, I like the young adult genre, but I'll look into other as long as it reads easy.  Meaning I don't like to stop pick up a dictionary & look up a word I'll never use.

A few weeks ago, I went to Houston for a Texas Tea convention.  It was a busy three days.  I went to a trade show.  Maybe, some of you don't know, but I work in the oil industry.  (Finally got my discount card in the mail.  50% on fuel.  Suckas! J/K!  I'm paying 3 something a gallon.  I don't look.  It'll just depress me even more.)  Houston is the center of black gold in the USA.  We've got quite a few customers in or around H-Town.  I also met with a few vendors.  (I'm the main buyer for the company.)  I saw the Astrodome which is dwarfed by the Reliant Stadium.  I just remember growing up the Astrodome being the biggest building ever.  Reliant Stadium was uge.  I went to an Astro's game.  That was a lot of fun.  

Oh...  I finally got my picture on a Jones Soda bottle.  I finally saw it a Ashley & Josh's wedding.  That's pretty exciting.  Start looking for it at a store near you.  You'll know it when you see it.

That's about it.  There's been a lot a TV in between.  I've picked up a new show.  Top Chef.  If you haven't seen check it.  I got addicted while house sitting in April.

Sorry no pictures.  Most of you know how I feel bout 'em.

I think the third book was the best of the three for me too. Not great, but better than the first two for sure.

I didn't know you went to Texas, and for a business trip. How grown up and professional of you!

I have been on the look-out for the Jones bottle, but nothin' yet. I'll keep looking. I want Norah to see Uncle Tommy the celebrity on the soda bottle!
