Everyday absolutely awesome nothings happen, I think that is why some people make some small things so much larger. Today a number of nothings happened, that on recollection may actually be something larger. Some of the neighbors came over, we kinda dug a hole in the front yard and leveled it for some brick work, we replaced some lights with florescent bulbs and everyone sat down in the living room eating scooby snacks (goes good with beer) and watching miss congeniality. That's when we noticed the florescent bulbs blinking, just blinking. Being a type b personality, the first thing we thought of was iCarly's random dancing and all the other lights went out as stereo thumped. just the kids and two cripples tripping in the living room. Another day of nothing.

On June 20th I went to Houston Motorsports Park. I must, I enjoy going it alone on things I alone enjoy, but this is one event that left me wanting to bring the whole family and the cooler. I have been to many strips in the past and have many left to travel, but this is high school foot ball team type of event with a regular dose of stupid fast cars. They say things are bigger in texas and I guess my inner teen came out in atleast it's most ignorant form, when I drove down here expecting a large cattle ranch, but Houston is a city, like any other city and a large portion of people are just people, but the people who race are really the people they were talking about. I was expecting a regular Saturday night and it was for the most part, minus the mindless speed. Some cars were clearing 160's in the 1/8th mile and everything else was just stupid fast. Track prep was thourogh and at every event they had plenty of hands out helping, which made for more than spare time leaving the rest of the evening something of an NHRA meets NASCAR run to finish the heats and mains before the lights go out. I walked freely in the pits finding everyone very nice and friendly, also a positive note a very diverse crowd. I have always believed that any indiffrence is just a choice without some catylyst. Cars for me have always proved to be the solution. I may not have anything in common with many people, but as soon as we start talking about anything automotive I can atleast try to listen. I don't have a hearing problem, just a listening one. I would like to thank the owners for allowing me to swing out and to my McC for the autostitch idea. I shot all pics off of the el cheapo point and shoot using basic settings and I am happy with the end product. for those looking for quality shots of the evening I saw a gentleman handling a sweet 90D with the words nitroart.com on the back. Please use common sense and deductive reason as carefully as possible to navigate to it rather than suduko or those other sites...yes I'm eighteen... and I have been since I was sixteen, just like everyone else. And for those in the know, nitroart.com is the site I thought I had to be 18 to look at. oohhhhhhh.
Life does not pass by quickly, but the chances to share do. The cell phone is truly a necessity and extravagant as I rarely answer the tell tale tone. I am learning more and more why a family my size rarely corresponds as freely as smaller ones and it's the same problem as your Internet search engine faces, too many answers to find the one you want or need. The quick tale on these pics picked to mimic the distance of time from my short sbuck back room rant is that I really am not comfortable putting pics of other people other than myself, up for everyone to see, but who can beat a bunch of kids in the back of a flooded el camino. For those in the know the bike and truck are synonymous of a tale told by the pic its self, date specific of course. For those that don't know, my buddy rode down here and we hung out, my truck next to his bike is a sight for sore eyes, good to see both. In the end though I must suggest owners of el camino's be more specific with the intent of their vehicles as the smugglers box is also a river to the interior.

Not a whole lot has been going on, so I have not had anything to write about. Work is going great and I'm going to just slip in for benifits at the end of this month. This makes me really happy. I did get to go see "The Hangover" and offensive as it was, I loved it. I also hung out with Matt and his friends one more time before he gets ready to head back to AZ. A good friend has passed before his time and words could not express the tradgedy, suffice to say, he lived. I have also been manipulating my laptop to harness a whole lot more music. I am not a real music buff, but I always want a sound track. Blue October and Kings of Leon are getting the 5 star click on my media player and I have dragged out the ol' Zen Micro, because it sync's real easy. On the down side I remember how much I payed for it and how awesome it was when I bought it, my micro sd card from wallmart is 4g at 14.88, my phone is more techy. Love that phone. So call once in a while so I remember what it was made for.
