Bullet Points

Hey, it has been a while since I've posted a full-on Blog here. Ive been all over Twitter, but nothing long form so here you go

Our baby is due in 1 month and 3 days. Hard to believe I am going to be a dad, but I think I am ready for it. Got a great book as a gift, "101 Things to do with your kids before they leave home" That is the stuff I look forward to. Things like, go to a museum and let the kid pick the museum. Plant a garden, etc. Tricia has her baby shower this weekend.

I will be doing a ride out with the Austin Police Department soon. I'm starting the paper work process and I am stoked to hit the mean streats of Austin with a cop. It should make for some great stories.

Surfed Lake Travis for the first time this season. The water is 75 degrees. I would love to see some rain come along and fill the lake up. Lake Travis Full = Pretty, Lake Travis not full = ugly.

Read a good book a couple of weeks ago, in fact it is the first Novel I have read in a long time. Its call Beat the Reaper by Josh Bazell. Cool book, had me interested from page 1. Read it, its fun to read.

So bummed that Jesse James didn't make the finals in Celebrity Apprentice. But Joan Rivers vs Annie Duke should make great TV. The finale is Sunday all 3 hours of it. 2 hours of the show and 1 hour reunion. Awesome show. I used to think of all the reality shows, I would want to on, The Amazing Race would be the one, now I think it is The Apprentice. It will never happen, because I aint not celebrity.

If you are looking for a great weekend or longer trip this summer and don't want to spend a fortune, I highly recomend fishing in Port Aransas. It's about a 4 hour drive from Austin and is totally unique. If you are going, send me an email and I will hook you up with Captain Jim Adams. Best fishing guide I know. You will have a great time with Captain Jim. Trust me on that.

Fixed stuff around the house today. The garbage disposal (no big deal) and took out and old dishwasher because we are getting a new one tomorrow. Pretty big deal. Normally, taking one out is not a problem, I ran in to a few unusual things with mine. Long story, I won't bother you with it.
