What's the Point?

Last night after work, I went running with Tim (Hawkins) around Town Lake here in Austin which is something he and I like doing every once in awhile. It's real nice to run around the beautiful lake in the evening when it's starting to cool down, however, you just have to dodge the millions of gnats. I get one in my mouth/teeth every single time. We ended up running 4 miles, which for me was awesome....but I wanted to die in the end. My question is.....





what is it about running your butt off that makes you want to eat a juicy, delicious cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, mayo, pickles, and mustard??











After running, I convinced Tim to go with me to Dan's Hamburgers, this local burger place here. And it was.....AWESOME!!!!




With curly fries on the side and a large Barqs Root Beer. I'm sure however many calories I just ran off, I replaced double time with this hankerin for a cheeseburger. Oh well.

Life is pretty awesome.

It's not you, it's me.

I'm through with Chuck. It just got too cheesy. I hate that I'm feeling this way because Chuck is one of the coolest guys ever....but his sister annoys the crap out of me. Also, there isn't enough Captain Awesome, more of him, preferably with his shirt off couldn't hurt. So long Chuck. It's been a good run.

look closely. its a mouse on a cat on a dog. oh austin, how u amuse me.

This is a pic I forgot I took of Rusty at the park next to our old house at Keesler AFB. Mom and I stopped by the old "neighborhood" on the way to Austin and saw that our neighborhood was no longer. They replaced it with brand new awesome base housing. Even though it was nice to see the base and the park, I really wanted to see our old house. So mom and I went to the park to play and eat. We stayed as long as we could until the No-See-Ums pushed us out. They were awful!! Anyway, although Rusty did very well on the long three day drive, I'm sure he really needed to run around.


By the way, as I type this, a commercial for the series premier of Mall Cops:Mall of America is on tv....I"M SO EXCITED!!!!

Iron Man 2!!

On Saturday, my friend Dale and I (I call him Gayle sometimes) went to see Iron Man 2. Of course, growing up with Lt. Col Gregory Young, I had him meet me at the theater 45 minutes....which I didn't know was too early, but apparently it was. The theater wasn't even cleaned up after the previous movie yet. So to pass the time until we could go sit down, Gayle and I went to go play some Air Hockey. We put the dollar in quarters in the machine, but nothing happened. After some mini-investigation, we saw it was turned off. And Gayle, being the dude he is, crawls on his knees underneath the table and turned it on. Then we put another dollar in, but no puck comes out. We then concluded that the game was turned off for a reason.....lack of puck. Gayle wants to give up and go sit down, but I didn't want two dollars to go to waste. of course. So i go find a manager and I say,

"Hey, the air hockey game stole dollars from me."
and he says,
"Well, looks like you just lost two bucks."
and I say,
"No. It looks like I just gained some free Popcorn."
"You want some free popcorn?"
"I want free anything."
"Okay i'll get you some popcorn."


Score, direct hit. Too bad right before I got the free popcorn, I bought a hot dog and nachos. And I don't even like popcorn!!!

On to the movie....IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't like Scarlett JOhannson all that much but I have decided I'm going to be the Black Widow for Halloween.
