Denver is Cool

Snowed for the first time here in Denver.  Had to brush off the car when I got out of training.  Speaking of training...very interesting.  Did not realize there was this much associated with wireless.

Just Can't Decide

Blogging does take effort.  Regardless of what you may think or hear, it does.  You have to find time to blog, then you have to find topics to blog about.  I do not make up anything on my blog so I have to live a pretty interesting life (yea right) in order to maintain a cool blog.  I mean, lets face it, there are only four people that actually read the blog, me, ERK, KG, and TG.  That is not a lot of people.  I have always struggled for a way to send my blog out to the masses.  I probably need to be 25 with big breasts for the world to read about my boring life.  Actually my life is not that boring.  Things happen to me ya know.  Like right now, I am writing this blog post in Atlanta airport in a place called Juke Joint.  Very small and hot, like I could take a knife and just cut the steamy air.  I was lucky enough to find a plug to fire up the laptop to write this.  See, this is interesting stuff.  This post is probably by far my longest post to date.  Off to Denver next week for a week.  I have been mapping out things that I want to see and places I want to go.  I am looking forward to the training.

Monday Morning Blog

Sure has been a few weeks since my last post.  Things have just been super crazy!  I have been travelling and trying to spend quality time with my family because I have been travelling so much.  I can tell you that we have been busy with my son's football.  We did get some apple picking in before the cold weather.  I did get a new car which I really enjoy driving.  Went to a retirement party for my dad.  That was really cool because all the kids got together and that does not happen too often.  Went a few times with the G's.  That is always fun and late.  Halloween is coming up real soon.  That is probably my second favorite 'holiday' behind Christmas.  I just like the dressing up part or maybe its the candy.

This Weekend was MUCH Better

Last week was pretty rough but I made it.  I was very much looking forward to spending some time out with ERK.  We did get a limo to take us to our first stop.

Clifton Wine Bar
We got there at about 5:30.  This place opens at 5.  We were the only ones in there for some time.  Bartender was the owner and very knowledgeable about wines.  I started off with a Malbec and ordered a meat and cheese plate.  Everything was awesome!  I would recommend this place.

Next we went to Lolita's in Tremont.  We did not stay too long,  Sat at the bar and drank some more wine.  The staff was very friendly and we always seem to be very comfortable in this place.  However, we wanted to go somewhere and watch some College Football.  We went to Treehouse but quickly turned around.

Ended up at Lago!
We had never been here.  We sat at the bar, first question, can we watch the football game?  Bartender quickly replied...Hell Yes!  So we stayed.  We had a few more glasses of wine before we ordered some food.  I had a fillet Mignon with some sort of noodle with cheese.  Was out of this world good stuff.  ERK ordered some ravioli with goat cheese, she still talks about how good it was.  I think we had a great time at this place and would be back sooner than later.  Great food, clean, great vibe!

Sure has been awhile

Yes, it has been some time since my last post.  Things have been super crazy.  I was in San Diego for a week.  That was an really cool trip.  I was able to hit up Karl Strauss beer garden and Stone Brewing beer garden.  Both were really cool with great beer.  I have to say that Stone was better.  Only cause I'm partial and get Stone in Ohio.  Downtown SD was really crazy, lots of people.  I was wearing my Pleepleus shirt and before I knew it, the manager was dragging me inside buying me a shot and a beer because I was wearing that shirt.  That was pretty cool.  Overall great trip and would visit again!

Good thing I got home because on the Tuesday after I got home from SD, I developed an infection in my tooth that ended up getting a root canal.  Not too fun!  The pain was horrible but the actual root canal part was not too bad.  I was so tired from not sleeping from the pain, I think i dosed off during the procedure.

Other news, I bought a new car.  The Golden Nugget was on its last mile.  I ended up with a 2007 Acura TL.  I look forward to picking it up in the next few days.
