Racing.

By
Okay I'll admit. I'm prejudiced. I honestly thought racing had to be boring to watch and that really only backwoods southern hicks liked it.

Then my neighbor turned out to be a racing fanatic. And tonight we agreed to go watch the weekly local races. And we had a blast. Even the Orclette and she fell on the bleachers twice and got a split lip but still had fun.

Oh which reminds me of a funny convo that happened:
Me: "Huh I didn't know that bugs[car] were any good...."
My neighbor: "Dude, bugs[car] are baaaad. Seriously they rock."
Orclette very seriously: "I don't like bugs[insect]. They are bad."

Wulfa also had fun and will have to write a post about it.

The keypoint of the night was when my neighbor's friend's boy who was racing in the street stock catagory got bumped in the first lap and him and the bumpee went spinning off the track.... and he came back 4 laps later to take first. That was lots of fun. The other big point was the guy with the cherry red bug that had a ticklemeelmo tied to the back window frame like it was hanging on for dear life.

Anyways... way less biased now and actually willing to watch NASCAR with my neighbor one of these sundays.

But if I go to the track again I'm so totally bringing headphones.

Honestly, short track racing is usually a lot more fun to watch. NASCAR races are really long, and not a lot happens. At a short track, they have a bunch of short races, and it is usually more fun to watch.

Yeh dirt track racing > than nascar by a long shot. For nascar just watch the last 50 laps thats when they actually start to race each other. By headphones did you mean ear plugs? because those are definatley a nice thing to have.

Guildless.

By
Me and Wulfa are now guildless. This came as kinda a shock and with no communication from the deciding party. I'm currently looking for a guild for us. We are not "raiders" and will never be. We do research our gear and fights and in general our classes. We are looking for a guild that we can be a part of, chat with, and not be expected to raid or be on specific times. I think that means we're looking for a "social" guild. We are primarily alliance but once finances get squared away(aka my bonus arrives) we could possibly convert to horde. If anyone knows of any guilds that they would recommend please let us know.

The Cat is Out of the Bag

By
I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...
