Various Ramblings

Turning 35 wasn’t too bad at all. My wife surprised me by inviting my Gun Club buddies and some people I ride with. One of the guys went with me to the Gun Show at Big Town and then by a HD shop, so I had no idea when I came home that everyone would be there to surprise me. Way to go, Audrey! You pulled one over on me this time. One of the guys in GC has a catering business on the side, so he brought brisket and ribs and some WOW.. damn, they were good. I had a good time — thanks to all who attended.

One of the guys got me a few lottery tickets for my birthday. I have never played the lottery before because my luck is horrible. He got me three $5 tickets. The first ticket hit for $50, the second raked in $5 and the third was a dud. A $15 gift turned into $55! I went to 7-11 to cash in, and took the $5 bill to buy one more then I remembered why I don’t play the lottery — I won NOTHING! From now on, if I want to play, I will take 8-ball with me! Thanks Mike!

Finally for my blabbering, I will offer up some more Andrew. I uploaded a video of him attempting his animal sounds. This was just taken today. We returned home from the doctors office, I sat him on the counter and we talked about animal sounds. He is so cute. I haven’t been teaching him this stuff, so its good to know they are teaching him some stuff at daycare :)

Results of my health assessment

I had a voluntary health assessment today at work, and here are the findings:

Total Cholesterol < 100 mg/dL
HDL 24 mg/dL
TRG 71 mg/dL
LDL N/A
Non-HDL N/A
TC/HDL N/A
Glucose 102 mg/dL
Body Fat 35.5%
BMI 44.4
Blood Pressure 126/74
Girth 47 inches

My low cholesterol was so low, it didn’t even register, but my HDL wasn’t high enough. I guess I need to eat more fruits, and I have to continue to work on that ole body mass thing. It could be much worse, though, so I guess I should look on the bright side, and keep waking up at 5:00 a.m. for those workouts.

18 Things I Learned from Indiana Jones

This is something Audrey sent me in e-mail recently, and I thought it was pretty funny.
