Looks like Blogger has changed their settings a little bit. Hope this turns out OK. Sooo, what's been going on with me? My last post was 2 weeks ago, so I'm going to try and see how well my memory is working.

First, it looks like Aidan and Shanna are going to be moving to Germany. I couldn't be happier. I think Aidan will love it there.

Hmmm at home...I went to Detroit last weekend. I had an outstanding time. I'm going again for Memorial Day weekend. Going to an electronic music fest and then possibly to a lake up north of Detroit.

At work...I'm the boss now. I have several evaluations I need to write and a major upgrade to our classrooms I'm overseeing. I'm also waiting to find out what my next assignment will be, but I won't know until the end of June or beginning of July.

The cicadas are here! I don't know if I spelled it right, but they are bugs (look like big flying roaches) that surface every 17 years to molt, mate,die (males) or dig (females). They come out in millions. The driveway is covered with shells right now...Pretty gross.

I've been running pretty good at work. Right now I'm doing 3 miles every other day, which takes me from the Pentagon over memorial bridge and around the Licoln memorial. In the next couple of weeks, I'm going to expand that out to the Washington monument. It adds another mile to mile and a half, but not enough to make me not do it. My legs get soar after running but I'm coping.

I have some new golf clubs. Now if I can just make some time to break them in. I was going to go with Jeff to hit some balls today, but I had to wait for the repairmen to fix my AC and then had to pick up my roommate at the garage where his car was getting worked on.

I just finished reading "Oh,The things I know" by Al Franken. Not quite as funny as "Lies, and the lying liars who tell them", but entertaining in it's own way. Now I'm reading "The five people you meet in heaven", and I have a copy of "The Divinci Code" on CD that I started listening to on my drive back from Detroit, but need to finish.

Going to a Russian restaurant for dinner tonight. I have no idea what they serve there, but I like trying new places. It's also an excuse to put on a shirt and tie, which I feel like I have to do every now and then so I don't forget how...Oh wait I put one every friggin day at work.

...from the Al Franken book as told to him by Buddy Hacket...

man goes to his doctor with a dot on his forehead. Doctor say "Oh my God! I've never seen this before, but I read about it in med school. In six weeks you're going to have a full sized penis growing out of your forehead" "Well cut it out!" says the patient. "I can't," says the doctor "It's attached to your brain--you'd die." "Oh, my God!" says the patient. "So you're saying that in six weeks every morning when I wake up I'm going to look in the mirror and see a penis growing out of my forehead?" "Oh, you won't see it," says the doctor. "The balls will cover your eyes"..

OK...I need to iron some pants and take a shower et al...
