Was he wearing the uper sexy skin tight brown shorts with brown tube socks, or is that just my UPS guy?
Yes he was wearing those super sexy shorts with the awesome tube socks... Then he had his short sleeve shirt rolled up to make his tattoo visible...

"I don't think my wife would like that very much..." I respond to his response with, "How do you know??? That would be one less thing that she has to do!!!" He ran to his truck and took off...

Good thing Terry's camera stuff is being sent FedEx... I am sure I will get a restraining order from UPS... again...

But we have Disney gift cards!!! The kids are up to 200 bucks each... And that is before Grammy and Papa buy them gift cards like they did last year...

I think since Terry got to order himself some camera gear I should order myself that same amount in gift cards for me...
I hope I don't see you on CNN...

I was stuck in that position and ... It took 4 strapping young boys to hoist me back on my feet
Personally, I'm a popper! I love me some black heads.

We have a friend who works for UPS and is usually at church functions in his outfit...I mean uniform. He gets endless teasing....mostly because those shorts are so tight!

my Uncle was a UPS man for many years... he did not "fill out" the shorts, if you will... He was skinny... and I always told him he was never going to be in the "Men of UPS" calendar with those legs!!!

We are mean parents too - my boys each have a bank account and put money in there for "future stuff". They earn money doing things that are outside of their regular chores and get money from relatives on their birthdays/Christmas, etc. Good thing, as neither of them know they're going to WDW in less than two months

Don't they know good customer service involves appreciating customer humour?

Darn them! Hey.... maybe your restraining order will scare away Mr. Cold Fish UPS guy and you'll get a HOT delivery dude next time!

Welcome back Terry! Suitcase, heck - you're going to need a cart to push your camera stuff around in!

Toni, on harassing the poor UPS guy! And I agree, you should definately have your own gift cards

I am finally in the process of uploading our pictures from 2008 onto my Facebook... Is it bad that it has taken me almost a year to do that???

Pictures from NHRA Drags...

Okay folks... I have returned to reality... The races were amazing!! The weather was in the mid 90's, making the asphalt on the track a scorching 125 degrees... There is nothing in this world like the feeling you get watching a race car, running on nitro-methane fuel, come off the starting line and travel 1000 feet at over 300mph in under 4 seconds ... Talk about a rush!! If you have never seen a race live, there is no pictures, videos, or words that can describe it... All I can say is the motor has such power that as it passes you, it shakes the ground, the bleachers, and everything else in the close vicinity... It almost takes the breathe out of you as it passes ... It is so exhilarating, you have to experience it at least once...

Anyways, back to where I was going with this... I have had time to upload some of the photos to Flickr... Here are some of my favorites... Feel free to check out the rest of the pictures... My Flickr link is in the bottom of my signature... This event is under Travel/Sporting Events/NHRA Northwest Nationals... Let me know what you think... I am trying to work on my photographic skills, and it is hard to take pics of a car moving that fast, but I gave it a try...



















And here are a few with me and the racers...

Terry bought me Wii Active last night! He surprised me with it... I have the Wii Fit and like it okay but it doesn't have a lot of activities that I get into doing... I also have the Gold's Gym Cardio Workout for the Wii, that one is shape boxing and I love it... But I needed something with more things than just that... So, we will see how I do on my 30 day challenge... Hopefully I will drop a little bit of weight before we go to Disney...

I can laugh because I'm so white it just shows up as a blur on film.
