13 year gap

3 foods i hate: watermelon, tomatoes, and cottage cheese.
It's probably been about the same amount of time that i've had any of these. 13 years. They're just gross. Call it crazy, because most people do. But i find watermelon bland, and boring, and gross. Well, with July being a constant month of barbecues and such, i finally caved and had some. Just so you know, this is a big deal. My dad would be proud.
I think i'd be fine to go the next 13 years without it again.

reminders

It's been almost 2 years since I lost one of my best friends. Still not a day goes by i don't think of him. Lots of things remind me of him. There are several songs that i'll occasionally hear and remember bumping them heavy in Robi's truck and just having fun. This most recent song, i forgot about, and then stumbled upon a couple days ago. No joke, i've played it probably 2 dozen times today. I doubt you'll enjoy it as much as i do, but i got some history with this.
It's how we lived when Captain Rob was around. Partying and Bull Sh*t.

Biggie's gone, Robi's gone. I'd rather have Robi back.

Is that your dad?

A couple months ago, (yeah, it's been a long time since i've written here) while at work, one of the dealerships had John Stockton come down for the grand re-opening. It was a good time. And i was able to snap this pic with him.
                                 All-time assist and steals leader Hall of Famer John Stockton, and me.
Later on that evening i had class to get back to. While sitting in class, i was looking at this picture on my computer. Everyone in utah recognizes john stockton, right? The girl sitting next to me didn't. She was born and raised in utah, and didn't know who he was. Want to know how i knew this? She asked me if that was a picture of me and my dad. Um, no. It's not. I kind of chuckled and asked if she was serious. She felt dumb, and said, "What?! It looks like your dad. You both have really white teeth."
We have white teeth? That makes us look like a father/son combo? Please. The whiteness of your teeth isn't hereditary.
So next time you see some people gathered together, or walking, and they have the same shade of teeth, don't assume they're family. Whew, glad that one is cleared up. I'm sure lots of people always make that mistake.

oops, my bad

It's been a long time since i've written here. Doesn't quite seem right. Over the last several months i've gotten extremely hooked on twitter, and use that almost as a substitute. I've neglected this adventure book. I'll get back on it, and keep things flowing.
