I was home sick again and I’m feeling better, but I have a cough now and I hate it when people come to work with a cough. I wouldn’t have stayed home otherwise because the sheet rock is up and now the mudders are in making their usual extreme mess. There’s no rest to be had when those guys are around.<\/p>\n

I just got my DirecTV hooked up today and now I have hundreds of channels. But still, there’s hardly anything I want to watch. It’s been, what, almost nine months since I had the cable turned off and now I have a GIANT 23″ HDTV hooked up to an HD DVR. I will admit that I was switching between channels and there’s a HUGE difference between HD and regular TV. The installer was a super nice kid who did a great job and so far I’ve had very little problem with DirecTV. I just got it though. Now I’m using the HD DVR to record every episode of Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives<\/b> and this is probably not going to be the best thing for my health. I looooves me some cheeseburgers and some of the ones on the TV are looking mighty fine.<\/p>\n

I just have to wish Sean and Melissa good luck tomorrow! They’re getting married, and luck may not be exactly what you’re supposed to wish for a wedding, but I know the old saying is true: It’s better to be lucky than good. I’m hoping for a break in the rain for their ceremony, and everything to go off without a hitch. I’m sure it will be great as they’re both incredibly laid back and I can count on them to just enjoy their special day!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
