Fuck facebook

2 Comments / Random Thoughts / /

Since I discovered facebook, its had my attention. I think I’ve been a bit addicted to it, but it’s not nearly as thought provoking as dumping my thoughts into this blog.   I think it’s time to choke back on Facebook, and take some time to post more here.   Thats my thoughts anyway.  lets see how it turns out.

Thanksgiving this year was pretty good.  We met up with robyns family in Ogden, met up with my family in provo, and had some good times in between.  Went to the shooting star saloon with my father in law and brother, and later went to Hal Hudsons, an old friend of my brother and had a great time.   I’m not going to go into the details of any of these things, because it was more than likely the same type of thanksgiving you had with your family:   Reuniting with family, eating turkey, and enjoying old company.   You have yours, and I have mine.

Fuckit.  I’m just going to make bullet points:

  • Was great to see my 3 year old nephew who only a few weeks ago was diagnosed with cancer.   He’s gonna beat it.  Thats my official call.   He’s going to live a long and prosperous life, and  his malady is going to bring his whole family together and they’ll be stronger because of it.   He’s going to learn to drive a car, have his first date, get married to a beautiful girl someday and die in his sleep at 93 years of age with his loved ones around him.
  • My father in law telling me that my older brother was a “good role model for me”.   While I don’t disagree that my brother is a stud and a fine example to anyone, I’m still scratching my head about that one.   Truth be told, i’m in no way looking for a role model at 42 years of age.
  • The shooting star saloon with my father in law is a fine tradition.   we’re on year 2.
  • Hal Hudsons garage is the coolest place I’ve seen short of the snow cap drive in on route 66.    He upped the ante with that one.
  • My wife, as always, is the shit.
  • I ate like crazy all weekend and monday morning, actually lost 1 pound.  go figure.
  • Glad thanksgiving is over.   Time to get back to work.
  • Riding my bike after 4 days of not riding  was pretty sweet.   Longest I’ve gone for a year or more.
