The 25 Random Facts...

So I actually posted this on Facebook, but I think it still counts as a post. Well, Facebook has this virus or something and it is just spreading like crazy. Everyone is writing out notes with 25 random things about themselves and then they just tag others to do it. I was tagged a few times and I decided that I should probably to it as well

Here's what I came up with...

1. I am a quiet person, but also a person who likes to talk alot.
2. I've lived in Nappanee all my life, yet my first job was in Sandusky, OH.
3. When I was a little kid, I had the biggest fear of roller coasters. I was always dragged on and would try anything not to ride them. I would scream, cry, attempt to throw up... whatever. Now I love roller coasters and I'm now the one who gets to drag othes on to them.
4. I have a strong interest in art. Although some may say that I'm a little artistic, I would say, not as artistic as some, but yeah, it is something i have an interest for.
5. I've never been treated in any U.S. ambulance, but I was treated in an ambulance at the airport in Lima, Peru. summer of 2003.
6. When I was a baby, I was in a severe car accident. My mom broke her back, my dad broke his leg, my brother twisted his ankle, and the most fragile in the car, me, had pretty much nothing wrong.
7. I have a mild case of OCD
8. I'm actually a fan of the New England Patriots(probably because I am so anti-Colts)
9. All three of the jobs I've had have been right off of US 6.
10. I'm not a fan of these types of notes.
11. I'm a huge fan of the number "11".
12. Some might say that I have an obsession with Wendy's... this is true.
13. I'm someone who gets a little annoyed when I have to repeat myself, such as someone might ask the same questions over and over again.
14. I once walked around in Cedar Point around 3:00 AM.
15. I have a fear of Spiders.
16. I love to sing. I'm not a good singer and I know that, but mostly just like to sing alone... driving or whatever.
17. I'm not a big fan of major tv shows such as "24", "Lost", "Survivor", "CSI", "House" and more...
18. I love to tell stories.
19. I love to make others laugh. Although some just don't get me as much as others.
20. I love authentic Mexican food.
21. My favorite "rerun" shows include, "Seinfeld", "King of Queens", "Boy Meets World", and
"The Wonders Years" (though both of the later I've yet to find on tv recently. Are the "Savage" boys not to be aired anymore?)
22. I am in fact, related to Laura Ingalls of "Little House on the Prairie"... though I'm not a big fan of.
23. I enjoy watching movies alone and then just quoting them as I watch.
24. I really don't know much about playing a guitar, yet you can find 6 of them in my apartment.
25. I loved the movie, "The Dark Knight" and it's probably my favorite movie, but I wasn't the biggest fan of "Batman Begins".


When I read this, I realize that there are so many other facts that I should have put that are better than some of these...

The Ceiling looked Haunted...

So... about a week ago I just walk into my bathroom and I look up at the ceiling above my bath tub and I was a little freaked out when I saw this...


It kind of looked like something you would see in some scary movie about a haunted house or something. I was almost expecting some form of insects or creature to just bust out of there. I had to feel it to see what was going on. So I reached up and I could feel that it was just full of water. I figured there was some sort of leak or something. I eventually called the maintenance guy, but he couldn't make it right away. So I was stuck with thing for a few nights. It grew so big and eventually just started to leak.

The maintenance guy came and put a hole and the ceiling to see what the problem was. And the problem was... well, it had to do with the toilet of the tenants that live above me. Ewww! Was this this thing filling up with toilet water? Was it just the toilet water or was it the drainage? Ahhh! So he got that all fixed... well all the plumbing stuff that is. As of now, it's still looking like this...


Yeah, I'm not sure when he is gonna fix the ceiling. I guess I'll give him a call on Monday, to see what's going on.

The Angry Whopper

I love it! I'm eating one right now!

Thank you Burger King!

(this counts as post, because I never said anything about the length of these posts)

Friends

God as blessed me with some amazing friends. I'm very thankful for them. I've been hanging out with a few of them lately... good times! Good times, indeed! So many late nights of Halo, Rock Band, Mario Kart, movies, Super Smash Bros., Call of Duty...

So many....

...quotes
...laughs
...inside jokes

It's nice to have these guys around. They all usually have encouraging words to say.

Thanks guys! ...The K.B.M. combo!

Now if God would only bless me with an awesome girlfriend...

January...

...wasn't a good blogging month from me. So much going on... well actually not much going on, but still.

So I guess my goal is to have at least 10 posts by the end of the month which is basically by the end of tomorrow. I think this is my 6th post this month, so lets see if I can squeeze at least 4 more in by tomorrow night.

I CAN DO IT!

Frozen Pipes and Winter Tilt-a-Whirl

So, I woke up on Friday morning to no water. Turns out that with all the negative below temps, I had frozen pipes. I called maintenance and they came out with a plumber to check it out. He said he couldn't do anything until Monday due to the fact that he didn't have a machine to thaw the pipes. So I was left with a few options to either just hangout and use other people's water or I could turn my heat all the way up(its free for me) and hope that the heat will warm up the walls and eventually all the plumbing and whatnot. After a few hours, that ended up working. So it was nice to not go a whole weekend without running water.

Also on Friday, I was drove to Milford to drop my friend off and I started driving home down this country road. I wasn't going too fast, but I hit the brakes to slow down and all of the sudden I just start spinning off the road. I was kind of worried about hitting this tree, but I was far enough away that nothing happened. A truck that I was following stopped and backed up to see if I was okay. I was ok, I just drove right on out and continued to drive home. The situation was really not that serious. It was probably about as serious as falling off the couch. I was driving about 25 - 30 MPH and actually slowing down during right before it happened. So that my friend, was like a winter tilt-a-whirl. Fun and scary at the same time... less vomit.

Hmm...

I've got nothing.

I was sick over the weekend. That was not fun, especially it being on first "free" weekend in a long time. It's like my sickness was saying, "Hey, this guy has a whole weekend off, lets just ruin it and make him sick!" However, I did get all the rest I needed and it was nice to just have a relaxing weekend.

It was a pretty busy night. I was still feeling sick when I went to work and I wasn't ready for a busy night. It was busy because of a snow storm warning. I guess it's gonna be pretty big. We'll just have to wait and see.

Biggest Victory of 2008


Second Biggest Victory... or Biggest Victories

Biggest Hype That Ended In Major Success



Biggest Hype of 2008 That Ended in Failure


This team was suppose to go all the way. All Cubs fans believed that this was the year... more so than other years. It's all you would hear. We were excited! Oh, it was gonna be awesome to witness it! The Cubs had an awesome season that was for sure to lead them to the World Series and end the 100 year drought... but no! The playoffs come and once again we are swept in the NLDS. So much hype going into the season... then into the playoffs and boom... failure.

Merry Christmas

I know it's kind of late on Christmas night, but I wanted to wish all of you a Merry Christmas! I hope everyone had a good day. Also, thanks to those who actually voted on my polls.

I was gonna post on "Christmas Lights", but I think it's a little late for that now... well actually, maybe I'll post something about that tomorrow, if I'm still in a Christmas mood.

Wow, this is probably the first year that I didn't watch a single Christmas episode of Boy Meets World... but then again, this is probably the first full year that I never watch any episode of Boy Meets World, period. Is that show even on anymore? Also, this was the first time that I never even thought about the SNL "I wish it were Christmas today song". I mean, usually during the Christmas season, I am singing all about that song and I just remembered about it today. I guess you can call that a good thing.

So once again I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and remember the true meaning of CHRISTmas. If you need help, click Here.
