THE DAILY DIVERSION

Well, since it's Friday, and pay day nonetheless, I thought I'd just wrap up some loose ends.

First and foremost, I was only woken up twice, again, this morning. Luckily for me, both were shortly after Adrianne left, which I'm assuming was around 7 am. I know she didn't want to get out of bed this morning for anything. I think her alarm went off three times before she finally said "Screw it! I'll get up." I've noticed that I've been sleeping better with her in bed with me than when she gets out of bed in the morning. Almost all my morning problems have happened once she leaves me alone in the king sized world.

I haven't had a whole lot of time to start on my work that I need to do for our review we're working on right now. Between teaching one of our new employees and fielding phone calls from one of our independent contractors, I've been run ragged. I haven't pulled any of the information for any of my stuff, but, at the same time, I haven't set a deadline for all of the reviews to be turned in either, so it works out.

I don't believe we have any big plans this weekend. I know we have to go grocery shopping either tonight or tomorrow, because we're running low on a lot of things. If we get time we really need to clean up our apartment, because it's a wreck. A large part of it is my fault, because I've had my Xbox controller glued to my hand every second I'm home since Monday, thus I haven't done anything around the house. We've even eaten out twice this week, which never happens. I finally cooked last night for a change. I've also got a ton of work shirts that need ironing this weekend, otherwise I'm going to be wearing some wrinkly ones next week. Maybe Sunday I'll get around to it. That's the day I always set aside to do that sort of thing, well, before I was married anyway.

I'm starting to get anxious about football season starting. I didn't think I was going to be, but once I started playing the game on Xbox it got me shaking like a heroine addict without a fix. Outside of a couple of teams, I don't know of who will make a run for the national title. Personally, I'm hoping on Notre Dame. They're my favorite college football team, well, until the Hilltoppers make the move from 1AA to the big time. I'm hoping that is soon.

I should have a full Labor Day weekend. We're heading up north again. I'm planning on having Adrianne drop me off in BG on Friday night, so I can stay there and watch WKU play at Georgia Saturday morning, then Paul and I can meet up with them in Owensboro after the game. Then the Irish play Georgia Tech that night. Two football games in one day? OH MY! (my wife will hate me by the time the day is over, I promise!)

I posted another "Rule" this morning. Personally, I think it's funny, and, yes, it's meant as a joke. I hope that person takes it that way and doesn't get mad at me, because I'd much rather be there than anyplace else on this earth (notice I didn't mention in the Galaxy? Who knows what's out there!). Anyway, have a great weekend and we'll do some catching up on Monday, unless I get really bored this weekend (don't count on it).
