My life out there for anyone?

Some of you may already know this but I post a blog almost everyday on my Myspace page. Yes Myspace, get over it. It's nothing great just a running diary of my ho-hum day. I'm going to start copying some of those posts over, not all but some. So sit back and enjoy Tuesday 12.30.08.

Got up at 8. Bree fed Riley and we then left to check out a Daycare. Another in home place, but I liked this one. It felt very structured and is pretty dang close.

After that we grabbed some breakfast at McDonald's and went over to Bree's place of work for a visit. Her boss paraded Riley around and then changed her diaper.

We got back home and I went to edit, while Bree made me some soup, I'm not a huge soup fan but potatoes, cheese, and bacon are always good. Soon we got packed up and went to visit another day care. This one was ok. Nothing great nothing fantastic.

We got home and I went back upstairs to edit. Finishing around 4:45. I am missing two still pics I need from Jake. I gave him a call and we found one but looks like the other will have to be redone. Lucky it's in Portland and not another region or state. Jake said he would go over and take it tomorrow. I came down stairs to watch the kid and the Holiday Bowl while Bree went to look at another childcare place.

Bree came home very impressed with the new place. It is a bit out of the way but nothing incredible. She took over Riley duties while I finished watching the Ducks beat the Cowboys. Bree took Riley upstairs to bed while I flipped the channel to the Blazers game. Paul called to chat about the Duck game and to set up a post Christmas present exchange. I finished up the Blazers game (victory versus Boston) and came up stairs. I watched the kiddo while Bree hopped in the shower. Once she was done I tricked her into watching Riley so I could come in here and write this blog.

Thanksgiving and the In-Laws

So the In-Laws visited for Thanksgiving. This is the first time that Bree and I have hosted any major family event. The guest role included:
Rory: father-in-law
Debbie: mother-in-law
Morgan: sister-in-law
Nick: Morgan's husdband
Amber: sister-in-law
Alex: sister-in-law
Bob: Alex' husdband
Tara: sister-in-law

Luckly my aunt who lives cross town was visiting her daughter in Vermont and loaned us her house for sleeping HQ.

So far so good. We've pretty much stayed close to home, because of Riley. She's been handled by everyone and seems to enjoy it. I did get out with Nick, Alex, and Bob to a Blazers game afterwards we went to Rock Bottom Brewery. We had a good time. Today we all sat around and watched the Civil War, even though I was the only one who cared. What a great game.

Roofball

I played some Roofball and won. For those of you who don’t know what Roofball is you can check out the leagues site here. Loren, Philipp and I were invited to play in the 2008 Roofball games by the Roofball founder, after we had him on our TV show, Portland Men on Sports. Loren took third in the time trial event. Then Loren, Philipp and I took first in the team event. Afterwards a head to head time trial event was put on. I took third while Loren took second. Ryan also participated in the time trial event.

We were invited back for Sunday’s 2008 US Open event. However Philipp had to fly out to NYC for work, and Loren had a fence to fix. I decided to play in the invitation only competition. And you guessed it folks I won. Check out the pic.

All in all we walked away with 7 medals out of a possible 10.

A tale of Tuesday

Last night (yes I’m writing this on Wednesday) Fransico (Rob), Jaun (Shaun), Pedro (Joe), and I went to the Beavers game, Portland Beavers that is. I had gotten four free tickets from the Oregonian. They were good to any game, and since this Thursday is the last home game of the year I figured I should use them. Luckily Tuesday was a double head so we had free tickets to both games, even though they only played seven innings each game which is lame. Joe and I are the only to that have an interest in sports and while we would like to see the home team do well we are not too invested in the outcome. We had a good time, attempting to explain what a force out is to Shaun, getting Rob to dive to head first into the next row and eating $1 hot dogs.



Afterwards Joe, Shaun and I headed over to Voodoo Doughnuts to grab some fat. All the while talking about Wii fit and how it would go about telling me that I’m fat. That and listen to Shaun tell us how horny he is. Fun times.

Logo's

Lately I have been feeling very busy. I generally have something to do after work everyday, sometimes it's a fun something sometime it's a must do something. Anyway not sure why I started the post that way but I'm mostly here to deliver some good news, well I think it's good or exciting anyway. Perhaps mostly to me than to anyone else. Last week I received my first shipment of Bookie Productions shirts, and today I received our new finished logo for Portland Men on Sports. I've posted it below. Carlyn who I work with designed the logo for me. You can reach her at carlyndesigns@mac.com. I hope you like.

You have to slide

So I played in a softball game the other day in which the umpire informed us that if there is a close play the runner must slide or would be called out. I guess I still need to work on my sliding technique.
