Lander, WY: Part One

So, my girlfriend's birthday is on January 23rd. For her birthday, she wants to visit her roommate's family in Lander, WY. Apparently, she did this last year (2010) and had a great time.

Tomorrow, my girlfriend and I will head for Lander, along with her roommate, her sister, and her best friend. All I know of Lander is that it's roughly six hours away. Also, there will be a turkey dinner, courtesy of the roommate's family.

If this picture is any indication, there are also goats in Lander. Our trip would probably be more exciting if goats were involved. Not in a dirty sense, of course. That would just be awkward.

Six hours of driving... oh well, that's why I have a PSP! ...and a cute girlfriend to sleep/drool on, of course.

Happy early birthday, baby girl!

C Is For Cancer

Last week, I received some unpleasant news: my mom has uterine cancer. Tomorrow, she'll undergo a hysterectomy, which will be the second major surgery that she's had in three years. I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't nervous; this has been a rough time for me. Fortunately, I have some great friends, and a really excellent girlfriend, all of whom have kept me sane and focused.

One week from tomorrow, we'll know whether or not she'll have to undergo chemotherapy.

For now, I'm going to be optimistic and send positive energy to my mom. One day at a time...

Geaux Saints!

Well, boys, we didn't make it to the Superbowl this year. That's okay, the world's just not ready for a back-to-back black and gold superbowl; it would be too epic, perhaps. I'm still a little bummed, but you know what? We had a great season and I'm already looking forward to the next. Also, to quote my friend Rae: Vicks commercials FTW!

WHO DAT!

Mobile 1

Another sleepless night- the perfect opportunity to try out this whole blogging via mobile phone thing! Testing, testing... Oh, this has just created so many new opportunities for me. Yeah, I'm a nerd. So?
