Merry Christmas From the Family

(Here is the Video)

Mom got drunk and Dad got drunk at our Christmas party

We were drinking champagne punch and homemade eggnog

Little sister brought her new boyfriend

He was a Mexican

We didn't know what to think of him until he sang

Felis Navidad, Felis Navidad

Brother Ken brought his kids with him

The three from his first wife Lynn

And the two identical twins from his second wife Mary Nell

Of course he brought his new wife Kay

Who talks all about AA

Chain smoking while the stereo plays Noel, Noel

The First Noel

Carve the Turkey

Turn the ball game on

Mix margaritas when the eggnog's gone

Send somebody to the Quickpak Store

We need some ice and an extension chord

A can of bean dip and some Diet Rites

A box of tampons, Marlboro Lights

Haleluja everybody say Cheese

Merry Christmas from the family

Fred and Rita drove from Harlingen

I can't remember how I'm kin to them

But when they tried to plug their motor home in

They blew our Christmas lights

Cousin David knew just what went wrong

So we all waited out on our front lawn

He threw a breaker and the lights came on

And we sang Silent Night, Oh Silent Night, Oh Holy Night

Carve the turkey turn the ball game on

Make Bloody Mary's

Cause We All Want One!

Send somebody to the Stop 'N Go

We need some celery and a can of fake snow

A bag of lemons and some Diet Sprites

A box of tampons, some Salem Lights

Haleluja, everybody say cheese

Merry Christmas from the Family

Robert Earl Keen Jr. and the Robert Earl Keen Band

found this pic and had to scan it in.....yes, its real, and yes, I did have that kind of hair, and yes, it was sweeet

....my heart is broken. I understand the rangers need pitching, but giving up young is just flat out horrible. getting rid of gonzalez is totally understandable, but young had so much up side it just makes me sick. anyways, i guess its good to know that at least the rangers are trying to do something and hoping to improve

ha

This is funny... i'm not a cowboys fan and I am definitely not a redskins fan, but i am a mavericks fan and this made me crack up.

How Nice

So, this is the first Sunday in months that I have absolutely nothing to do. No school, no mowing, and the cowboys are getting the crap kicked out of them, can't get any better. Many posts coming in the next couple of weeks since I really don't have much going on....

getting sick !

as promised

DEER 1

I took these the other day down at Lake Tanglewood while I was working (work camera). Fortunately, I was able to go down there again this morning and got some better pics with my own camera, so expect those once I have gone home and put them on my computer. Anyway, the buck in the middle pic was gigantic and had some awesome antlers, but they didn't show up (again, work camera). I don't know why, but I really like seeing deer, they just represent something to me, sounds weird i guess, but I guess they kind of refresh me somehow....

ha

.....sure am glad i didn't buy that soriano jersey last time i was at ameriquest field

Semester is over..except finals..aww

yeah, it's over now
but i can breathe somehow
when it's all worn out
i'd rather go without

you know it's been on my mind
could you stand right here
look me straight in the eye and say
that it's over now

we pay our debt sometime

well it's over now
yet i can see somehow
when it's all gone wrong
it's hard to be so strong

we pay our debt sometime

guess it's over now
i seem alive somehow
when it's out of sight
just wait and do your time

you know it's been on my mind
could i stand right here
look myself in the eyes, and say
that it's over now

we pay our debt sometime

a little APC

Say hello to the rug's topography
It holds quite a lot of interest with your face down on it
Say hello to the shrinking in your head
You can't see it but you know its there so don't neglect it

I'm taking her home with me all dressed in white
She's got everything I need, pharmacy keys
She's falling hard for me, I can see it in her eyes
She acts just like a nurse with all the other guys

Say hello to all the apples on the ground
They were once in your eyes but you sneezed them out while sleeping
Say hello to everything you've left behind
It's even more a part of your life now that you can't touch it

I'm taking her home with me, all dressed in white
She's got everything I need, some pills in a little cup
She's falling hard for me, I can see it in her eyes
She acts just like a nurse with all the other guys

Say hello to the rug's topography...

Success!

I promised myself, and you the reader, that I would be finished with my paper by Sunday evening. Well, Saturday I was down in the computer lab at WT from 1 till about 5 and I got a ton done, but didn't write that much. Today, or I guess yesterday now, I again spent the majority of my day down there. From 3 till just before midnight I was down there toiling away on my Human Resource management paper. I wrote nearly 11 pages and its basically done. I know this sounds stupid for myself to be bragging about something like this, but I am truly proud of how I was able to set a goal and actually finish it time. I don't think I'll be doing this again though, I probably should start earlier in the semester next time (since I'm taking a similar class next semester with the same professor (Compensation Administration Management, YES!)). But, it feels so good to get this done and know that it doesn't have to be turned in until Wednesday. And, well, I am basically done with this semester....aww.

In other news...Has the bird flu hit Amarillo?

getting burned-out...

Cool...

I find this pretty interesting and can use it as motivation for the future (not that I plan on playing in the NFL anytime soon, but its a good read)
