We’re not a traditional family!

So far I’m a
Work in progress!”

Right now I have no idea on showers, bridal or otherwise.  Consult Joanna for any and all shower information!  All I need to know is When, Where, what should I wear and are the kids there?

Postscript: No showers have been planned.

I’m keeping clear from the parental units as we are not in communication right now.  I’m hoping for the best like my friends continue to tell me but expecting the  tragic worst.

I’ve spent more time worrying about the house and the bills with a recent paycut that playing cards online, reading blogs have all taken a back seat.

So let me address the following while I’m thinking of it. I twitter when I can but, I can’t post on my phone yet, have to figure that one out.

Bam – Bam : Still thinking of your father in law in my prayers and your blog is required reading for Frantic Fridays.

John Hartness : Your choices series is one of the best pieces I have read in a long time. Well written and I can see the further plotlines you have ahead. Well done sir.

Prince of Houston : Yup, I’m alive, barely but I’ll call you this week.

OOSSUUU754 : Brother, I’m not forgetting you, just have had one shit week.  Will get back to you on Thursday.

Gcox25 : I’m still here sir, and I’m dragging my mean as a snake fiance up there soon.  Okie Vegas I need your healing waters.

F-Train : Have faith in your play.

CK : You are amazing

Doc Chako : Single parenting sucks huh, I believe in you.  Give The Wife my love.

The Wife : I know I’ve fallen off the face of the earth, but losing all your phone numbers when my phone melted is the reason.  We’ll connect soon.

DRhodes : My friend, I’m here, we’re both busy, let’s pillage some dude soon

Riggstad : Are you still alive?

If I haven’t mentioned you it wasn’t with malice, it’s just what I can think of right at this second.

I’m taking things slow, because I get the kids soon and it will be totally worth it.  All my pain will be gone soon.

I’m counting the days Shelby and Ryan.

    Fear not, for I shall be there. I am trying to get a Vampire named Wharton to come down with us, but don’t know if I will get it done.
    And I am trying put together a semblance of a bachelor party, because I know how much you enjoyed the first one. I’m thinking Dallas area because it is middle ground.
    What do you think?

  3. PrinceofHouston says:

    11:30? You are giving yourself about hour’s worth of extra credit.

  4. Maria says:

  6. Bam-Bam says:

    Really appreciate the thoughts and they have been passed on.

    Take care.

  7. OhCaptain says:

    Stay sane my friend. Remember, the only goal of a wedding is to be married when it’s over. Just a friendly reminder :-)

  8. Dawn Summers says:

  9. THAT girl says:

    WOW…you talk about me, and yet you don’t give me any thing else? Not even a damn name…I see how you are… =P

    I’ll tell you EXACTLY what to wear… You too POH… The rest of our silly friend can show up in clothes, while you both look like monkies!!! >=D

    I’m gonning to get you my pretties!!! MUHAHAHAHA!!!!

  10. THAT girl says:

    **when my natural spell check has the hiccups, I can’t seem to spell simple words correctly. I would like to apologize for offending all of the more sensitive types with my spelling error, and correct it here. *GOING* not gonning. Thank you for your patience.**

  11. THAT girl says:

    POH, it’s called respect… He must behave sensibly…and since we aren’t having strippers, there will be none for you either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I won’t put my foot down on anything else…you can buy his 3 drinks and take his drunk ass home.

  12. PrinceofHouston says:

    It’s good to be the Prince.

    Hand raised solemnly:
    I promise I will not have any strippers come to the bachelor party. Really, I promise. I’m getting old. I can’t tear it up like the old days. We will just have to make do with a lewd talking waitress.

Have you thought of the following today?

Calling a lost friend? Smiling at a stranger? Laughing for no reason? Kicking someone you hate in the privates?
