First off I just want to say, a little late, but better late than never that Bigboy got robbed in Diaryland Survivor!! Ok, now that that's out of the way, on with the shitty entry.

Yes, I didn't get around to updating again yesterday. We'll just play 'pretend' again and pretend that this is from yesterday. Ok? We had so much fun the last time, let's do it again. Good.

I'm teaching myself PERL at work so that I can be a more versatile web designer. I want to be able to do more than just make a web site look pretty or cool. I want to make it work! It's actually kind of fun and it's very easy to pick up. Anyone interested should pick up the book "Teach Yourself PERL 5 in 21 Days" from SAMS publishing. It's very intuitive and a great teacher. Ok, enough boring stuff.

I'm looking into going back home to Missouri for a few days in October. I missed my 10-year reunion back in July and it kind of bummed me out. Well, my old football coach is having a 2000 reunion of all the players who ever played for him in October. I'm going to try to make that one. Maybe have a little reunion with old classmates who are still around home. Hell, at least I'll get to meet some of the old guys that I used to tear up the dirt with. I'm planning on taking the baby back with me, but we'll see how that goes. We can't afford for the wife and 4-year-old to go and he might not do too good without mommy. I think he'll be ok. Problem is, 4-year-old might be upset that he's not going. I kind of feel bad about that, but the date is set, out of my hands, and we just don't have the money right now for 3 plane tickets. I am excited though.

I've lost weight! I've dropped from 275 down to 258. I'm not sure how. I guess it's because I've been drinking more water, eating a bit better and cutting out a lot of McDonald's and shit. Wish I could lose a lot more before I go back home, but that's near impossible. If I lost all the weight I want to lose before going home, I'd die. Losing 50 pounds in one month isn't too healthy. Oh well.

Well, this entry is really sucking ass so I'm going to stop now. Put you all out of your misery now instead of dragging it out like some literary Bataan death march. I'll try to do an entry that's for today so check back later tonight. This piece of crap will be gone, hopefully. Till then.

"Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?"
