September 2006

I left for Ohio, Friday afternoon around 12. I get there at 7 or 8, and we go and check out the place they rented for the wedding reception, only it is being used as a locker room for a football team. We speak to the cops at the football game and we get everything sorted out. After the game we would go there so the cook can prep the food and all that good stuff, but before we’re about to leave Brett gets a call saying that he can’t go there that night because of the game. After arguing for a half hour, it comes down to the fact that they have to wait the next day to do anything. So instead we go hang out at a bonfire in the park, I have a bottle of champagne and a few shots and I can’t remember the night, but apparently I did some shit that I was apologizing for the next day.

Saturday is the day of the reception and everything was going fine, until we realize what time it was and we hurried the fuck outta there and went back to his place to get ready really quick. The reception ended around 8, so at 11 we went to a haunted house that was pretty sweet. We used to make haunted houses every year and I think if I had my own place then I’d deck it out more for Halloween than any other holiday.

Sunday as I was getting ready to drive home, Breelynn was crying and Brett was offering to pay me to stay, which if I didn’t have work the next day, I’m not sure when or if I would come back at all. It’s beautiful out there.

I got back Sunday night, and I thought I would have some pictures up by now, but I woke up yesterday sick as a dog and haven’t really been doing much of staying in bed playing video games and sleeping. I have work tomorrow, but if work keeps slowing down then I might be out of a job all together, then I don’t know what I’d do.

So I know I haven’t really been around much on here or on the internet in general, but I have been busy with going to see the girlfriend and with my best friend’s wedding and with working, so I hope you all can understand. As I am writing this I am getting ready to leave for Ohio for the final rounds of his wedding. When I return I will probably put some unfinished sections onl,ine just so I can add more content and have the need to finish them quickly. I will also be taking my camera with lots of batteries so I can get some nice shots during my trip. I will be back on Sunday, seeing as how I have work on Monday so I hope you all have a great weekend and I will be back with lots to show (hopefully).

So I just got back from my best friend’s wedding. I was there this past weekend and I am going to Ohio for the reception for the bride’s parents this coming weekend. I gave a speech this weekend, and I will be giving another one next weekend. I think I am going to change it up, though. I hate public speaking, so when I stood up I was really nervous. Everyone thought the speech was great, though so maybe I’ll put it online.

Life’s been pretty boring otherwise, I’ve just been working. Last week I went to visit the girlfriend, that was pretty nice.

About a month ago I put up a blog where I wrote PayPerPost, and some people told me that it was a scam, that nobody would pay you for blogging, but guess what? I got paid. When I woke up this morning I had money in my PayPal account. Even I was skeptical at first, but now that they’ve paid up, I can start posting more from this site. Maybe now I can make enough money each month that I can actually move out of Delaware and up to New York.

So as you may or may not have heard Steve Irwen, the crocodile hunter, died today. He didn’t die from a crocodile, however, instead he died from a stingray attack. For those of you who don’t know, stingrays are very peaceful animals and will only attack when feeling threatened. In fact there have only been three stingray attacks reported in the Australian waters. I normally don’t find tragedy funny, but who would have seen this coming? I honestly thought when he died it would have been like in Dr. Dolittle 2 where he is attacked by a crocodile, not a peaceful stingray.

Okay so I got some emails reguarding why I was ditching PHPBB, but the fact is I am not ditching anything, only adding to the limited functionality of the PHPBB system as a blog. WordPress offers much more and when integrated, it is very powerful. I have already used a plugin for the WordPress system to create a Wishlist page on the Me section, and much more will be coming soon. I also have an archive section coming soon.

This is a test of the wordpress-PHPBB integration. You will not be allowed to comment until I reopen the forum add some stronger spam controls and delete all the spam comments.
