What are you...nuts?

This is one of my favorite photos. I have always absolutely loved it. I can't really tell you why, because I don't know myself. It could be because it reminds me of when dad and I went to the baseball game. That was a good day. It could be because the peanut reminds me of Jessica, who is a good friend. It could be because it always makes me want a peanut butter and jelly sand which (crunchy, of course). It could be because I'm a total sucker for a photo with a soft background (no editing involved in this one...this is 100% photographic skill-or luck, however you want to put it. i like to say skill). It could be because one nut is exposed, and the other isn't, which makes me think of humans-there is a side everyone sees and a side we hide away. But enough babbling, no matter the reason...it will always be one of my favorites.

So I guess yes, I must be a little..."nuts".

I'll blog a blur.

Looking back on my life thus far...a lot of it is a blur.

My childhood-kinda blurry. Adolescence-can't wait until I'm done with it! High school-hope it stays blurry. College-parts are crystal clear, others...yep, blurry. Wyoming-AAHHH! Moving to Lincoln-becoming a blur. College again-oh, mostly pretty fresh but I'm trying to blur it out as we speak. Golfing today-I need to blur out about 15 strokes.

This photo-you guessed it. But it is still lovely...as is my life thus far.

Variations on a theme:

The Beethoven in the backround gives me a hint for the title of this blog.

The clock on the wall gives me a constant reminder of my ten o'clock tee time.

The wiener dog licking the empty bowl of spaghetti gives me a ....wait, what? No she's not.

Yes she is.

This photo of Mitch gives me a reminder of what?...12 years ago? Holy crap, that is a long time.

(i told you i'd blog this photo)

I went downtown two nights in a row. It has been quite a while since that has happened.

I hate downtown*.

(*= O'Rourkes...i heart O'Rourkes)

Anyways, it seems that whenever Mitch and I end up downtown I always drag him to O'Rourkes. Here's to you Mitch. To new beers,

(maybe "beer" is plural, but I still like to say "beers)

letting me drag you where I will, and for being a good friend. Ho-0h!

"Just ask the school nurse...she's got like, five extra sticks in her drawer".

Fore!

Went golfing yesterday...maybe one of my worst rounds ever. The 18th hole went amazingly (maybe not a word) well so I am going again tomorrow. I'm probably begging for punishment. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. If you ask me...it is the Wii's fault that my game went to crap. Stupid Wii.

Wii...continued

Mitch and roommate and I had a bowling and a golf tournament last night. It was quite competitive, quite competitive. No punches were thrown and we are all still friends.

So I guess that's good.

I'm a pro!

Hey...that sort of looks like "Mii".

Lane and I got Sarah a Wii for her birthday. We gave it to her 53 days early. We had already played it when we gave it to her. Oops. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH!

Sarah, Lane, and Owen are on vacation this week and she was wonderful enough to lend me her Wii for the week. I would like to announce that I am now a pro golfer. No really, the game has me ranked as a pro. Take that bee-at....wait, what? Also, my right arm is very sore and I'm sleep deprived. Damn Wii...(i love you)

Three years.

Greg sent me these photo's of some of his fishing trips in Montana. For the first time since I moved back to Nebraska I can honestly say...it made me miss Wyoming. Ahh!! That's something I thought I'd never say.

It will be three years on the 14th since I left Casper. I still don't miss Casper, but I miss the mountains in northern Wyoming. We would take fly fishing trips up there. It was so peaceful and beautiful and secluded. I miss being able to only have to drive and hour to be in the mountains. My how things have changed.

Last week I brought my fly rod out for the first time since that August three years ago.

It was weird.
