Yup, able to write for a bit. Let's see here, Joe came to the blogosphere, drank all the liquor, tried to taunt my deceased dog, and posted once. Coming up when you visit the blog: Joe's New Blog, Tech football and wedding thoughts as well as a bunch of others in this Uber (tm Iggy Inc).

Why?
Because that’s what a good fiance does.
I could give a rats ass about the whole wedding stuff , because I just want the end result.
Me + Joanna = Forever. How we get there doesn’t matter.
Over this last weekend I heard about our getaway car, being specially rebuilt for this one special day and transported down by our favorite car builder Jeff Kruger. It’s a 1967 Ford Mustang Convertable.
When Joanna saw it, she was in love. They finally got the transmission working so it would go forward. For the longest time, it would only go in reverse. I blame not enough crown and too much sweat.
I can’t wait to see the final result.
Joanna and I have sent out the final set of invitations. Funny story, I sent out an invitation thinking that we had missed it, and got a call from a friend asking why they got two invitations. Yes, Joanna had sent one in the first batch, and the excuse of the wedding came in.
“You got two because we really, really want you there!”
Some of my friends and her friends aren’t going to be able to make it and we both understood. We both knew that because of the timing, people would have plans, and we would be blesses by whoever made it.
In other great news, we’re off to Oklahoma next weekend. Joanna and I are going to drive up to see Gary Cox, his wife Carrie and the meanest son of a bitch in the state of Oklahoma. ( I know it isn’t true, but I have to help his self esteem.
All we have to do is worry about gas, the Low Limit Grinder is putting us in the FABulous Okie Vegas Party Facilities in beautiful Fort Cobb lake, then we will be escorted by the MSOBITSOO to Stillwater where he has tickets for us to see his Oklahoma State Cowgirls take on MY Texas Tech Red Raiders.
It should be fun.
And a side note to Gary after yesterday’s bull with the kids…
It’s still business brother.

What the hell am I talking about? I'm a very allergic man, and that's the way I'll (ACHOO) like it. The Wedding... Now I'm really getting excited for the wedding coming in 60+ days, why? A new start? Yes, but not exactly. A chance to see my kids? Yes, but not exactly. It's change. (Actually there is more of it, well thought of and written for your consumption at http://www.donahue.org It's tax free!)

Tonight I played a tournament, trying to win.
But in the end came up a bit short of winning.
When I was intensely intent on winning, I overthought things and didn’t have the results that I wanted.
However I played my best when I was just playing for fun of it.
Sometimes you have to just have to relax and just play to play.
I think that all the success I’ve had lately are due to the success of me just playing for fun.
I’ve had a project that I’ve been working on and off the last couple of months. When I tried to sit down and write , working on rewrite after rewrite, nothing came out.
But when I sat down to just write, everything came out nicely.
Now I just have to find a buyer for my project.
Step 2.
FYI, I didn’t have time today to make the visit to the person that I wanted to see, but I’ll let the cat out of the bag.
I’m considering going back to any school that will take me so I can get a piece of paper that means I have a piece of paper.
It’s about time for me to have a piece of paper like, Joanna’s that sits on a chest of drawers staring at me saying “DO IT!”

After many sleepless nights miserable, unhappy and alone I found her.
I had suffered for years, looking in the wrong place for love.
At first, I looked and tried to push her away.
And I went away to disaster after disaster, tragedy after another.
But then one night our eyes met again.
And I knew she was mine.
I had to make it last forever.
Tonight, I proposed to Joanna Watson, soon to be Joanna Watson Donahue.
No one person has ever meant to me, other than my kids and family, as much as she does.
She makes me a better man each day.
She supports me when I am low,
and is beside me when I am happy.
I am the luckiest man alive.
And December 19th, she’ll be mine forever.
I love you Joanna Watson Donahue.
