no tv!

Its been a rough month or two. first someone tore out all my plants and threw them all over my car along with some food products, then someone crashed into my car causing over 5k in damage, then i got bit by a dog and had to go to the emergency room and finally my tv died last sunday. I've been without a tv for a week now. it kind of sucks, which i find interesting because I went for 4 years without watching TV pretty much while I was in college. I guess thats what free cable will do to you. But I've been keeping pretty productive. cleaning, rearranging the living room, painting spackling... I ordered a really nice TV at a low price through my work, but its taking some time to get here. I just got a call that it will arrive sometime friday afternoon. I guess it'll be another week until I get to watch TV on a really big screen! not THAT big though. I'm a little excited, isn't that sad?

its true

I grew up in the midwest. Illinois in fact, some people don't remember that and think i grew up in ohio...but in fact the first 11 years of my life were spent in Glen Carbon, IL. My illinois home was the only home I lived at that wasn't secluded in the woods. We actually lived in a development which was nice. No one in Illinois had pools at all and today I fondly remembered how when I was about 4 or 5 my dad brought home a cattle trough and put it in our driveway for me my sister and brother to 'go swimming' of course at the time I thought this was AMAZING. but now as I think of this memory I realize how ridiculously trashy this must have seemed to our neighbors. and just so you know, yes I have pictures to prove this, and yes my parents still have the cattle trough.

wheres the crack?
