KG's Hideaway

Skipped Alias tonight for Survivor, but have no clue why. I was so FUCKing mad at Ryan and Kyra both that it was all I could do not to scream my head off. To top that off, I got a message from Amanda today that she broke up with Austin because two weeks ago he was at the fraternity house party. There were two chicks either making out or having sex (I didn't ask for details, but Craig is thinking about calling Austin to get them for himself... lmao!!) but all the guys were going crazy and someone was videotaping the "event." So my son decided that he would contribute to the event by kissing one of the girls and licking the thigh of the other one. While someone was taping it. With his girlfriend NOT there. And he waited two weeks to tell her. I am proud of him for not doing the typical male thing and saying, "What?" Well, that's what their dad would have did.

It was only 75 degrees here. Yesterday it got up to 104, a new record for that day. I was really excited until I found out that it was all just a tease and it will be hot and muggy again by Saturday... just in time for Ryan's basketball tournament.

So "our" soldier isn't moving back to our local area, and I'm a little bummed about that. I think it would have been awesome to get to know him and his wife and kids. He's moving back to South Texas to be closer to his mom and to go to school, and I think he's really excited about that. His wife is still in school and he's looking forward to taking some classes with her and, as he says it, making out between classes. Isn't that cute? The way he describes her it is so obvious how in love with her he is... it's very cute. I think Craig would like him alot. He seems to have tons of integrity, and you gotta love a man that loves his momma! Anyway, I hope we get to know them both. I've thought about adopting another soldier... not sure if I will or not, but the experience has been wonderful. It feels good to know that I'm contributing something to the cause, though sending letters and packages seems very small. I think I've gotten more from it than he has, that's for sure.

Nothing new from my family, so that's good. I'm glad that things with my brother are normal, but I can't worry about my sister. I haven't even cried since I wrote that letter Monday morning. Not one tear, and it's been a long time since I've done that.

My 20 year class reunion is coming up in three weeks. God, I'm dreading hauling my fat ass in there, though I'm not sure why. I mean, it's Crowley, for Pete's sake! I see half of my schoolmates every single time I step outside my house and most of them have kids either in the same grades as my kids, close to the same grades or they TEACH school with my kids, so I see them all the time. Hmmm, I wonder how much weight I can lose in 3 weeks...? Emergency liposuction? Wait, I'll have a cast on so maybe I can just say that the CAST makes me look fat. You think that would work? LOL kdgr
