Spider

Luckily this post is about the game.
Not the creepy crawly sort of which I HATE
and am terrified of.

I am somewhat addicted to Spider Solitaire.
I will sit down about 3 times a day and play for 10 minutes.
I stay sitting until I win.
I play two suits.

My problem is this.
I win in 120 moves all the time.
My best score 115.
My goal....
to get a win in under 115 moves.
I just can't seem to do it.
Hence, the addiction.

I believe I need intervention.

Remakes

I saw this tonight.

Not bad.

I remember the first one.

A girlfriend and I found ourselves

all alone on a Friday night

and decided to catch a flick.

Unfortunately, because we decided so late

our options were limited.

So we found ourselves

watching the adventures of

Gulliver in Liliput.

It really was pretty funny

in a sorta dumb way.

I think the kids will like it.

I figure if you get a laugh

it's worth your time.

Pin Down

It's official

My bowling team won 1st place

in the first half.

This means...

no matter how crappy

or inconsistent

we may bowl from hear on out

We still get to bowl off for 1st place

at the end of the year.

a 50/50 chance of winning it all.

This means more PRIZE MONEY.

The goal is always to win enough

to pay for lunch and the banquet.

Winning first does this and more.

:)

I have been trying to curb

my competitive nature

I really have....;)

but when your sitting in the top 3

it's hard not to want it all.

So after finishing 1st

I can now sit back

relax

and enjoy the rest of the year.

Bowling is a fun way to hang with friends

and have a day out.

"GLEE"

It's a craze!!

A teenage craze!!

Although I am not a teenager

I admit I have joined the throngs

and I do watch this craziness.

I have been drawn in by the teenagers,

those who live in and those who just visit my house.

It is slightly inappropriate at times...

I'm not ganna lie. :)

However, the music is awesome.

Often times they sing remakes of popular 80's songs.

I was a teen in the 80's right?

So it makes sense that these songs appeal to me.

"Can't Stop Believing" is my ring tone.

-Sigh-

The season comes to an end next week.

Probably a good thing.

We can all have a pause from this craziness.

Any of you "Glee" fans?

Any of you admit it?

Just wonderin'

Kenny Concert

Today Lincoln called me and informed me that Sandy City was giving away 2 tickets to each employee for the Kenney Chesney Concert at Rio Tinto.

Because he was working and the two guys working with him didn't want their tickets....
I wound up with 6 coveted tickets.
Me, Bailee, Brooklyn, Ben and two of Bailee's friends ventured out.

It started at 5:30 p.m. Today was a scorching 100 something degrees.
Not a good beginning. Ben couldn't hack it after about 2 hours...My sister Darla to the rescue.
She retrieved him and took him home. Thank goodness Rio Tinto Stadium is so close.

Then when "The Sun Went Down", literally. The main event took the stage.
It was awesome!! Brooklyn and Bailee danced and screamed until they couldn't scream no more. :)
I gave it a little wiggle myself.

Two suggestions for Rio Tinto...
1) When you have a huge concert planned in the middle of the summer....
Plan on a very thirsty crowd.
Do NOT run out of COLD Water.
Not Good at all.

2) The water running through the pipes in the bathroom should not be HOT. Even the toilets flushed hot. You could see the condensation on the pipes. This makes for a sauna. I swear the bathrooms in this place were so HOT. When you stepped outside into the 100 degree weather you felt relief.

I haven't been to a concert in quite a while. Made me feel kinda young again.
Wish Ben could have endured till the Sun Went Down. He would have loved it too.
