The Heady Days of J. R. and Landry Are History in Humbled Dallas

so jay's hard work with this dallas strong-mayor bid is really starting to pay off. maybe my favorite of his college profs will find him in the little local rag...in the words of my sweet friend wyatt, jay, "Why are you not going for publication with a higher distribution?"

heehee

normally a letterman fan, jay leno hit the funny bone on this sketch.

let it snow, let it snow...

breckenridge just may possibly be the greatest place on earth. the ski trip was fabulous, the snow was, as the locals say, "epic." perfect weather, perfect time. i did not want to leave.

in fact, i recall about 3pm saturday afternoon, coming up the quicksilver lift, thinking to myself, in 36 hours, i will be at a desk checking my 4,000 emails and thinking...36 hours ago i was in a lift overlooking the mountains, snow, and all of the beauty of this resort and God's creation. and yes, that is what i am thinking. bummer.

all that said, i am back in reality with the rest of you weasels. thankful for a great trip, a beautiful place, friends, and that it's almost CHRISTMAS!!! no, not the "winter holidays," CHRISTMAS!! i am so fed up with this sheesh about having to worry about being PC about Christmas. it is, in all reality, a christian holiday. if you don't like it, celebrate festivus or something, but let me have my favorite holiday of the year!!! you can't take it away from me...please!?!?! ; )

weekend update with katy link

i got to see my little tykes this weekend...or my brother, josh's kids, i should say. they are hilarious and i have so much fun with them. there is nothing like a bunch of little ones running around your apartment wrecking havoc to make you smile. they rock. carter, audrey, asher, and caroline. i'll post pics of all of them sometime soon, as well as the other bro's (jarrod) wild men, kyle, nathan, and carson. ; ) and by the way, just as i think i'm becoming a real video-gamer, those kids come into town and prove me wrong. how are eight year-olds better than me at these stupid games, anyway? grrrrrrrr, i need to spend more time on that dang playstation 2.

the rest of the weekend was spent christmas party-ing, white rock marathon-ing (not me, my bro...but it did make my little runner's heart happy and wanting a little more to train for a half marathon than during my runs the days before). the half marathon i can see, but the condition of those people after they finished the marathon, i can't. you marathoners are STRANGE. it's supposed to be fun, and that did not look fun to me. but more power to ya, i'm impressed watching you hobble side-ways down stairs and urinate on yourselves. giggle. maybe i'm just jealous.

oh and one last thing, i don't know what your plans are for new year's, but i feel i should fair-warn you, it may not feel the same, the times, they are a changin'.

holiday partying

what a fabulous weekend. waaaaay to much time playing video games at home friday night (tricky is the best), holiday parties saturday and sunday night, holiday church on sunday (i really love church around the holidays), and BEST of all...OU's bid to the national championship game, the orange bowl in miami (http://www.orangebowl.org/). now i'm trying to scrape pennies together and see if i can make it down there. either way, my family members, fellow sooner fans and i are happy. yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

countdown to ski trip bliss...8 days to the town of breck and a ski mountain that i love with all my heart.
