2011 Indycar World Championship race

Today was a very unexpected, sad day for me, Tina, the kids and the fans of Indycar. I was at the race, and witnessed the entire 15 car pile-up crash that resulted in the death of 33 year old racer Dan Wheldon. The crash happened just after the 13th lap. I haven’t seen a race since I was a young kid and to have that be the first race I see after a very long time doesn’t sit very well with me.

Moving Again

So it looks like we’ll be moving again. We haven’t even been here 2 months yet and already going to be laying down roots somewhere else. Having to pack again and move all our stuff again sucks.

Misunderstood at Brunch

So I’m standing in line for the Firelight Buffet at Sams Town and this guy in line behind me taps me on the shoulder, points to a dime and says “what’s it with?” I didn’t understand the question. I told him “nothing” with a puzzled look on my face. He looks down at the dime then back at me. Again he asks “what’s it with?” Both of us stand there for a minute. I then realize that he was asking “what’s it worth?” We both shared a laugh while he explained that he wasn’t from here and that he didn’t understand why we would have a coin that was worth nothing.
