Something for Amanda.

Happy Anniversary Baby!! I love you so much. If you will talk to Yoda you will find he has something for you.



I hope our next 5 years are just as great as the first 5. Love you.

No excuses....

I have no excuses for not blogging. Yes, things have been very busy with work and school...It's 10pm and I just got home from both. But I've had chances to blog and just blew it off. I'm horrible I know. Forgive me?

So, things are good, blah blah blah. Now the important stuff.

Book Review!!!! Thought I had forgotten? Well, I didn't and no it didn't take me this long to read the book...I've read it twice since the last post and a couple of other books. Anyway, as promised here is what I have to say about "The Princess Bride".

I'm sure most of you have seen the movie(if not stop reading this blog, go rent the movie and make your life count for something!), but I doubt that even half of you have read the book. The book is acutally titled, "The Princess Bride. S. Morgnestern's Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure" by William Goldman. Now what Mr. Goldman did was take Morgenstern's classic book and cut out the boring stuff. That's right only the "good parts" as Mr. Goldman explains in the introduction. If you loved the movie you will love the book...there's hardly any difference(much more detail in the book of course). But what is interesting about the book is that Mr. Goldman will interrupt the story with his own comments about why he cut out the upcoming section and include his thoughts about what you just read. Some people might not like this sort of story-telling, but I enjoyed it b/c I always want to discuss the book I just read with someone else and get their opinions, but I didn't have to with "The Princess Bride" it was built in. Again, if you haven't seen the movie I don't understand why you are still reading this and not RUNNING to Movie Gallery, Blockbuster or wherever to rent it or heck just go to Wal-Mart and buy the thing...trust me its worth it! If you have seen the movie, or would prefer to read the book before seeing the movie then go by BAMM or Barns-n-Noble and buy it or shoot me an email and I'll let you borrow it.

Next book....well, books...The Star Wars Saga.(stop your whining their good books!)

Earlier this week Amanda and I were going through some pictures and I came across some old school pics that I wanted to share with all of you. Hope Teale doesn't mind me sharing some of these, we both look so young.

Halloween Senior year, dressed up for marching band. I'm one of the Blue's Brothers, Teale if you don't know is the doctor.


New York Senior Trip. We searched for this stupid dog statue for ever. It almost caused me and Teale to leave our mom's in Central Park.


My cousin sent me this sign from new Orleans. I couldn't believe there was a company with my full name. I wonder if its still there or if Katrina took it away? And if I can get any benefits from them?


Well, that was just a couple of the pics I found, that I thought you would find interesting. One day I'll tell you the story of looking for that dog statue...its a good one. *you may need to click on the pics to get a better look*

So this friday is mine and Amanda's 5 year anniversary. I can't believe it has been 5 years...so much has happened in such a short time...I wouldn't change anything, well maybe the whole FPC thing I would change but everything else can stay the same. Over the last 5 years I have come to love Amanda even more than I did the day we were married(which I didn't think was possible). She is my best friend and the love of my life. I love you Amanda.

Oh and look for another special blog coming very soon. Take Care
