I thought this was particularly funny. Especially given the fact that none of the actors are well known. It adds a bit of realism to it all. Enjoy!

Some Thoughts
Brownies are good.
I am tired.
Work is bad.
I cut the grass today.
...in my non-grass-cutting shoes!
I feel bloated since I ate a brownie and drank some milk.
The milk was 2%.
Milk stays around $3.59 at Harris Teeter.
Dexter's Lab is on.
Very funny show.
Bye.

No More Classes!
Well, almost. Tonight I am studying for my last two tests (Physics and Ship Construction II). I honestly want to take more classes but, for now, I am happy to be done with studying at night after working all day.
Hopefully the tests will go well tomorrow.

Another Week Gone By
Well, that was nice weekend. With the exception of painting and caulking at our house. I don't actually mind doing work around the house, I just dislike the investment of time involved. Here's the bottomline: I need a vacation.
We had originally planned to take a vacation of sorts this spring or sometime in the summer but, now that Joy's pregnant I will be saving the vacation for something a little more important. Something like the birth of our child.
Anyway, this is my last week of classes, which I am very excited about. Non-stop classes for the last two years with only a week break here and there has really burned me out. I would like to go back to school someday but I'm being very liberal with my use of the word "someday".
To my sister who has been having some computer-related frustrations this week:
I was going to post a link to that laptop I saw in Best Buy's ad but it is only in their ad. I don't see it on their site. It's $449, Dual Core, 120GB hard drive, reads/writed dual layer DVD's, 15.4" "Brightview Widescreen". By the way, the 15.4" is the same size/orientation as the screen on my laptop. The only thing it would need would be another Gig of ram (about $35) since it only has 1GB with Vista Home Premium.
Have a great week.
P.S. If anybody has any tips on how to widen this main column a little so that the pictures I post won't get cut off, let me know. I don't know much about HTML code and I don't want to go poking around and mess the layout up (which I happen to like).

Just a Post
Work went fine today. I'll be getting a little overtime tomorrow but I guess what I'm being faced with is the fact that it's never guaranteed. I always knew that you shouldn't plan on overtime but, in my defense, we never bought this house thinking I'd be getting any overtime. We did, however, bank on Joy's job which pretty much ended over a year ago. Uh oh, I think I'm getting a little too "real" here.
The most important thing is that the more I face the day to day barrage of the unknown, the more I realize that I should have been relying on the Lord all along.
I've been posting pictures from my flickr site recently because I started trying to organize them a little more.
By the way, I think the layout of this blog messes up the way pictures are displayed. Basically, if the picture is wider than the main text column of the blog, the right side of the picture gets cut off. How do I fix that?! It's kind of annoying.
Here's some pictures anyway:
Here's a picture of Caleb from December 2003. He has really grown.
Molly, November 2003. Such a cutie.

Tomorrow
Tomorrow I start my next "rotation" at my job. It's a new supervisor, a different area, different people, and so on. Sadly, the main thing I'm worried about is overtime. Hopefully I will be able to get enough. I never thought I'd actually want to work overtime so much but desperate times call for desperate measures.
Joy is still feeling sick which I'm really praying she gets over soon because it is really kicking her butt.
On a lighter and cuter note, Molly has been playing her Animal Hospital game today for her Nintendo DS. In this game, the player acts as a vet trying to heal sick animals. Well, one of the animals, a cat named Chloe, has been at Molly's hospital since Christmas when she got the game. Today, Molly took care of it enough so that it was able to go home. This upset Molly enough that she got a little teary. Joy and I weren't laughing at her. We thought it was sweet. She really has a good heart.
Caleb has been playing the game Trouble a lot since we got it for 25 cents at a yard sale yesterday. Good times, good times.
That's all I have for now. See ya.

Just a Couple of Pictures From My Flickr Page
Nothing really out of the ordinary to see here. I just felt like posting a couple of pictures from my flickr site. Wait, did I just repeat the title of this post? Oh well.
Molly and Caleb feigning surprise over their Easter baskets. Yep, this was totally staged. Can you tell?
This is the "I can't believe it! I just can't believe it!!" routine.

Pregnancy Journal, Part II
Yes, I've been taking my time updating this blog with respect to Joy's pregnancy. It's been a little hectic, I guess. Joy's been feeling pretty sick lately. Yesterday, she was especially nauseated. Although, we're not totally sure that was just from the pregnancy. It could've been the spaghetti she and kids ate Thursday night. The spaghetti that Molly vomited all over our bedroom floor around 1am Friday morning. Who knows?
Anyway, Joy went to her obstetrician last week and she had her initial ultrasound. Here's a picture I took of it since I don't own a scanner:
Anyway, Joy went to her obstetrician last week and she had her initial ultrasound. Here's a picture I took of it since I don't own a scanner:
The large black void area in the middle (the part that looks like a pinto bean) is where the placenta, baby, etc. is starting to form. The area near the top of the pinto bean that looks like two short horizontal lines is actually the little "yolk sac". I put "yolk sac" in quotations because that is what the doctor called it, although I'm not sure if he would have put a "k" on the end of "sac".
At the time of this ultrasound, the doctor estimated the baby to be only about four weeks old. He/she is so small in fact (about 1mm) that the doctor couldn't take a measurement. We have to go back in about four more weeks to have another ultrasound. Then, we will get a more accurate due date.
Until then, there is nothing really new to report other than Joy feeling pretty darn sick all the time. Yuck.
Until next time, I'll leave you with this peaceful portrait of our current youngest child. See ya!
