N3rdy

Since last blogging I've read 2 full books(How States Got Their Shapes and 1776) and starting a 3rd book. Yep, I would consider myself a nerd. It's probably actually an understatement. Video games, TV and books. Those are pretty much the three staples I would need in life (other then food and water and of course Amy and Bindi :) ) My plans for my days off include going out to buy some books, play some video games and watch TV. Woowee, hold me back!

Spring has Sprung

Well, the 3 feet of snow has finally melted and here's to hoping that we don't see anymore of it for quite some time. Weather's been getting warmer and daylight savings just occurred so now we have longer days (although losing an hour of sleep bites, but I'm not too worried bout it). Can't wait to get outside, do our summer projects and of course, can't wait to start grilling again!

February 3rd

Significant events that occurred on February 3rd:

First paper money issued in US (1690)
US captures Marshall Islands (1944)
11th Winter Games opens in Japan (1972)
Patriots defeat the Rams in the Super Bowl (2002)

Started a life of happiness with Amy (2001)

Love ya baby! :)

Snow

Yea, that powdery white stuff that may look pretty for the first couple of inches that it lays down, but when you deal with storm after storm after storm laying down FEET of snow, it gets old, quick. Having to snowblow my driveway on a weekly basis (and clear out in front of the mailboxes)really bites. Not only does it blow (that's what she said) but it adds to Amy's commute and it's pretty much doubled her travel time too and from work. We still haven't been able to take down our Christmas lights because they're buried underneath about 3 feet of snow and it'll probably be at least another month before we even have a chance to get at them.

So yea, Summer, come soon!

Resolution-Schmesolution

I don't do resolutions but if I did, it'd be to blog more. And like most resolutions, they'd probably fall by the wayside in a couple weeks. But yea, I really should blog more. Since I last blogged, I've celebrated a birthday, Christmas, been to a few Bruins games, got several video games, read 2 books and have watched countless hours of TV. Maybe its just that I'm so boring, who knows. But maybe I'll get back into the habit of doing this again. Really don't do much. Basically its work (or read at work is more like it), play some video games, watch high quality TV like Jersey Shore and go out on occasion. Other then that, I'm a pretty simple guy and I really have no problem with that.


Now, back to reading (at work)

Hanson!

Yep, for the first time in almost 10 years, I'm getting dragged to a Hanson, make two Hanson concerts. I've managed to get away without going for quite awhile now, but I knew it was inevitable. Will I have fun? Who knows, probably. Gonna be a lot of driving done between these two shows since both locations are located 2-2.5 hours away from home. So yes, my Hanson cherry will be broken *facepalm*

PS-Look at the countdown. 3 days til my Bday! Woop!

Hurricane-Schmurricane

So there's been some talk about this lil beast of a storm named Earl dropping by to pay MA a visit. I say come on down! Been 19 long years since we've been really impacted by a good storm (Hurricane Bob)...sure we may not get the full effects of it but sounds like we're gonna get some rain and some of the tropical storm winds but that works for me. Of course it's coming for the weekend but that's quite allright cuz we already have a hurricane party planned...whether Earl comes or not! So far the guest list includes myself, Amy, Caitlin(via Skype) and of course Earl. Party plans consist of pretty much anything but there will definitely be some daiquiri's drunk and some drinking games played! Looking forward to this weekend guys!

Oh PS, whenever I hear hurricane, all I can think of is Amurrica! (inside joke) :)
