KG's Hideaway

11-21-05 1:07pm

First I have NEVER been described as "overly passive" since about the age of 19. Way off on that one. Just ask my husband's exwife.
Second, I don't think I have issues controlling my sexual desires. Yes, during my first marriage I had an affair for about a year or so, but that was a conscious decision and I don't regret it.
Lastly, I guess I am practical but I don't think I'm overly practical. In fact, I'm probably more of a dreamer than anything.

Gotta run!

God, I've got soooo much to do and not much time to get it done. Craig and I leave for Phoenix tomorrow morning. We land around 1pm and will head directly to the closes In-N-Out for the best burger in the world, then head over to our swanky hotel downtown. We were going to take Roger and his gf to dinner but he called Craig today and invited them to go to the Sun's basketball game against Golden State, so that's where we're headed. I'm not a fan of either team but anytime we get a chance to watch a pro game of any kind we usually take it. It will be in one of the boxes, so the food should be fantastic. We don't want to make it too late of a night because we'll need to get up fairly early to get to the speedway on Sunday for the race (will probably stop at In-N-Out again).

I haven't been to a race at the Phoenix before so I'm pretty excited. Our pit passes have to be picked up that morning (I'm assuming to make it harder to counterfeit them) so that sucks, but it's worth it. I've been on pit road for a number of races but it's always exciting... especially if you have hot passes.

We come back Monday night, then leave again at noon on Wednesday to go to Austin for Ryan's basketball tournament. Her team took second last year but I don't hold out that much hope for this year. She was in the paper yesterday for being high scorer in her game on Tuesday. He also had 7 steals in the game. That's high, even for a point guard, but for a center it's HUGE. Her game seems much stronger this year even though she's only 12 weeks post op from foot surgery. Keep your fingers crossed that he rluck holds.

Austin is home for the weekend and Amanda is with him. They're back together and they both seem happy about it. I'm letting him take my truck back to Tarleton with him on Sunday so that he can bring back some of his stuff when he has to come BACK on Wednesday (so he can stay with Kyra while Ryan, Craig and I are in Austin). I'm a little bummed out because I don't like driving anything but my truck. Not Craig's car, and not Austin's. His car is nice, don't get me wrong... even with the dent on the roof of the car (not the hood, the roof... from a yield sign coming through the sunroof) but I don't like being that low to the ground. It just scares the shit out of me for some reason.

We've "adopted" our 2nd American Soldier deployed to Iraq. She's a Marine and her name is Audrey. She's only 22, is married and has a 19 month old daughter. It was bad enough that she was deployed and taken away from her daughter and such a young age but she just received papers that her husband is divorcing her! What a PRICK! To top it off, he is avoiding taking her phone calls and when he DOES answer the phone, she asks him to put the phone near their daughter's ear so she can hear her mommy's voice and that bastard puts her off claiming she's asleep or she's sick, or any number of excuses! I swear, the government should do more to protect these soldiers while they are FIGHTING A WAR! Don't get me wrong, if these selfish bastards (or bitches) want a divorce while their spouse is deployed, then they should be able to get it (thought I would never be able to live with myself if I did that) but the government should bifricate the case so that the divorce is one matter and the custody can be settled once the soldier returns. I think it would be great to re-institute the draft for people like him. (NOTE: I AM BEING SARCASTIC HERE! I DO NOT ADVOCATE THE DRAFT!)

That's all for now. I've got to get moving. Ryan's got a game in Mansfield tonight and I still have to buy some grub for the kids to eat while we're gone, get our bedroom clean and run some miscillaneious errands. Ciao!!!

I'm going to try and sneak in a nap before Ryan's game at 7 so this will be a quick post. We had a wonderful weekend at the Speedway, I didn't work it but Craig did. However we both changed over to VIP Security and it's still a cake walk compared to many of the other jobs. The race went over well and we reconnected with a fan that I'd met there about 3 years ago. He'd been inviting us to come to Kansas to hang out with them in the infield in their motorhome for the weekend. We're dfinitely going to do it next year. I love this guy and his girlfriend is an absolute gem. Fun, fun people. Speaking of Same and Cliff, here are a few of the jokes they told us this weekend before they were TOO sloshed:

Three 3rd graders are walking down the street. A blonde, a brunette and a redhead. Who has the biggest boobs? The blonde... she's 18!!!

GEOGRAPHY

Two blondes living in Oklahoma were sitting on a bench talking........and one blonde says to the other:
"Which do you think is farther away..........Florida or the moon?
"The other blonde turns and says "Helloooooooooo, can you see Florida.......?????

CAR TROUBLE
A blonde pushes her BMW into a gas station.
She tells the mechanic it died.
After he works on it for a few minutes, it is idling smoothly.
She says, "What's the story?"
He replies, "Just crap in the carburetor"
She asks, "And, how often do I have to do that?"

SPEEDING TICKET
A police officer stops a blonde for speeding and asks her very nicely if he could see her license.
She replied in a huff, "I wish you guys would get your act together. Just yesterday you take away my license and then today you expect me to show it to you!"

RIVER WALK
There's this blonde out for a walk. She comes to a river and sees another blonde on the opposite bank.
"Yoo-hoo!" she shouts, "How can I get to the other side?"
The second blonde looks up the river then down the river and shouts back, "You ARE on the other side."

KNITTING
A highway patrolman pulled alongside a speeding car on the freeway.
Glancing at the car, he was astounded to see that the blonde behind the wheel was knitting!
Realizing that she was oblivious to his flashing lights and siren, the trooper cranked down his window, turned on his bullhorn and yelled, "PULL OVER!"
"NO!" the blonde yelled back, "IT'S A SCARF!"

BLONDE ON THE SUN
A Russian, an American, and a Blonde were talking one day.
The Russian said, "We were the first in space!"
The American said, "We were the first on the moon!"
The Blonde said, "So what? We're going to be the first on the sun!"
The Russian and the American looked at each other and shook their heads.
"You can't land on the sun, you idiot! You'll burn up!" said the Russian.
To which the Blonde replied, "We're not stupid, you know. We're going at night!"
IN A VACUUM
A blonde was playing Trivial Pursuit one night. It was her turn.
She rolled the dice and she landed on Science & Nature.
Her question was, "If you are in a vacuum and someone calls your name, can you hear it?"
She thought for a time and then asked, "Is it on or off?"

FINALLY, THE BLONDE JOKE TO END ALL BLONDE JOKES!
A girl was visiting her blonde friend, who had acquired two new dogs, and asked her what their names were.
The blonde responded by saying that one was named Rolex and one was named Timex.
Her friend said "Whoever heard of someone naming dogs like that?"
"HELLOOOOOO," answered the blonde. "They're watch dogs!"

Aren't those GREAT!!!!

We got another stack of college letters for Ryan and I think I finally figured out why. She can commit to any college on year from tomorrow. She can only verbally commit then and then sign on signing day her senior year, but I'm assuming that's why they're hitting her so hard. Kansas State sends letter after letter, though they've sent enough now that they have to send the rest through the highschool coach, but they give them to us. I guess they want her pretty bad. Her summer coach called us to tell us that Texas Tech is really interested in her, too. She REALLY like's Tech, so who knows.

Got my Kanye West Cd today and I'm all OVER the Gold digger song. I reccomend it to ALL!
Alright, gotta run. kdgr

Well, it's officially that time of year. Normally, this signifies the start of something we LOVE, but this year I don't know how much I'm going to love it. The girls' varsity basketball team isn't something I'm excited about this year because I don't think they're going to be any good, but I guess we'll have to wait and see. I'm also a little worried about Ryan's foot as this will be the first basketball season since her foot surgery three months ago. She played volleyball on it and only complained here and there so long as the trainer padded and taped it. Basketball is much harder on the body than volleyball, though, so we won't really know until she gets going. ::sigh:: I'm a little afraid of getting my hopes up.

Thursday night is the volleyball banquet. They'll tell us then, I'm assuming, which girls made the All District team. She made it last year as a Freshman, but this was a strange year. We got all of her patches from last year for her letter jacket ordered. For Volleyball, she got "Freshman Letterman" and All District team." For basketball, she got "Freshman Letterman", "All District", Bi-District Champs" and Area Champs. Then for track, she got "Freshman Letterman" and "District Champs. We got the two volleyball patches and the freshman letterman patches for basketball done when we ordered her jacket last year, as well as the patch across the back of her letter jacket that says, "Li'l Green" (Austin was "Big Green") This "free" letter jacket has now cost us over $325, and this only covers all her freshman year and volleyball of her sophomore year. We didn't order anything else from this year because we didn't want to jinx her. By the time she graduates her jacket will be full, because the patches after this year will no longer fit on the sleeves... they're already full. We already had to have the track patches sewn on to the back of the jacket because they're really only designed to handle two sports (one on each sleeve). Oh well.
