It's Grill Time


I pulled out the grill for the first time this year.  It was great.  Hotdogs and brats.  I love the smell of the grill.  I love the fact that I get to cook outside.  Grilling is great.  I don't know how many other ways I can say it.  Hopefully this year, I will get to grill even more.  I have been adding a few items to my grill menu each year.  I have a few new items I want to try this year as well.  Anyone hungry?

Rainy Fridays


I actually enjoy rainy Fridays.  It's a nice calming way to enter the weekend.  Although, it would be nice if things warmed up and cleared out over the weekend.  Rainy days aren't too bad.  The perfect rainy day is about 65 to 70 degrees with a light drizzle.  There is something about the rain that is very soothing.  Maybe it's the sound or the smell.  Either way, I like it.

Moving


I've been a little busy the past few weeks getting everything ready to move. We got settled in over the weekend and have been putting away boxes for the past few days. Things are looking good and should be about done. Now the only thing we need is a basketball goal and some more tools for the garage. It's nice to have some good help when you move, because there is no way to do it by yourself.

April Fools Day


This used to be one of the cooler "holidays" of the year.  You could pull some really funny pranks or stunts on your coworkers and friends.  But now it seems like everybody knows it's April Fools Day, so they are expecting something to happen.  To really spice things up, why not play pranks on random days of the year.  Everybody is looking for them today.  Isn't the point to catch people off guard.  That's why I say, be crazy all year long and not just on the one day where people are expecting it.

The Bathroom Door

The age old question of the bathroom door.  When you are home alone, do you still shut the bathroom door or do you leave it open?  I find myself shutting it even when no one is home.  Is that really weird?  Maybe it's normal, I don't know.  I guess I'm just in such of habit of shutting the door in any other case, that I don't even think about it.  Then again, I've heard people who say they don't shut the door when people are around.  I don't know about that.

Madness of March


What a beautiful time of the year.  The flowers are starting to sprout, the grass is turning greener, and the brackets have been unveiled.   Doesn't it smell great?  I've probably said it before, but this is the best time of the year.  From the time the brackets come out on Selection Sunday to the end of the first weekend of games, it is hard to find a better time.  Trying to figure out the matchups and who we want to see play.  It doesn't get any better.

TV Shows


I don't watch a lot of TV shows.  I have a few favorites and there are some shows that aren't too bad.  But the only way to watch a show is commercial free.  You can either DVR it and watch it whenever you want.  The other great option is to watch it on DVD.  Just watch the whole season all at once.  Non-stop.  That's the way to do it.  The storylines flow together, you don't have to wait a week or two in between shows.  Just go straight thru a season.  What a great idea.
