Nice little oozing blister on my arm from the evil doctors who say we needed to get smallpox shots. I thought they erradicated smallpox....I guess not everywhere. Should be a fine scab in a few more days. Anyone want it? They say it's really contagious. Maybe C-Webb wants it, or Rob, or Jonny. I won't even ask Mike, Pinc, or Scott because they would just fight over it. P.S. muscles are actually bigger than they appear in photos..okay maybe not.....yet. James

You know that cameras actually add 10 pounds, so if you think those buggy whips look small on film, you better get in the weight lifting tent. Palmer forwarded your email to us at SFD, your blogs are funny, keep it up. And yes, they have been seperated, one is on E-11 and one is on E-12. It helps right until they cross paths in the station...........ha! When you do see one of those people eating Iraq tarantulas, please get a photo, we heard alot about them and have seen nothing. So that is your mission on top of trying to keep your tent staked down and finding the satellite signals. Nice truck! Coming from someone who digs driving the big trucks. Glad to hear you are doing well. Stay safe, keep blogging. Ginny
You better get busy in the gym... Roscoe and I are going to be in better shape than you!!!
Only a Bears fan would have such sensitive skin! Go Colts!!!!! Keep sending the pics---Indy
I had a buddy in college that had the same time of bump, but he didn't get it from a small pox shot.
what part of your anatomy IS that? Seriously, I can't tell...
I mean seriously, that's your arm?

OK I thought I was computer savvy but this is new to me!! I loved reading everthing on your blog. I'm not sure about the new look. I have to agree with Julie - hopefully it will scare bad guys away!! Use sunscreen!!! Things are going good here in Ames - except for the artic conditions. Steve had to shovel for the first time in 14 years and that did not make him happy. Everyone else in the neighborhood had snow blowers!!
I am still trying to get things organized here - well that is what I keep telling Steve - that way I don't have to look for a job!!!
Take care and know we are praying for your safety. Love, Doris & Steve

Thanks for the visual on the shot!!
And this should really scare you into working out. Steve and I have started going to the fitness center. Yep - we are going to be looking pretty buff for this summer at the lake!!!
We are pretty much the Grizzwalds there - I have only almost fallen off the eliptical machine twice!! Doris
have to agree with the others on this particular comment... it looks like your girly white ass. I grew up with it, so I know... don't try to pretend that's your "arm" because we all know better. They're right, your blog comments are pretty funny. I'm gonna whoop your ass (like always) when you get back, but I'm reserving that for my wedding present. Chomp chomp! Just playing, but really, a wee bit-o-Irish scrapping would do us both a world of good right now. I'm working insane hours. Think it's gonna pay off with this specific job... I have a strange and somehow warm feeling about this one... Might work, but maybe no. It's all good.
By the by, Dottie had a stellar idea about the wedding. I'm still leaning toward pizza for the food. Don't laugh, I know (more than anyone) what a food snob I am. If we hire caterers I know deeply in my heart that there will come a time during the reception when I'll demand that they hand over the apron to me and dance with my husband. You know me. I'd do it, too! Rather than go to war with crappy caterers, I'm thinking I'd like to order "gourmet" pizzas through the good folks at Blue Moon, or someone of their ilk... Why bother? If they want me to impress them with food, they can come to my restaurant. I just want the best party of my life. Dottie came up with the idea that we should do an "Oktoberfest" theme. Brilliant! Pizza, beer, and grilled bratworst! We all know she can provide the mustard... I just want something unpretentious. I want everyone to have fun and nothing more. Let me know what you think. I think she's really onto something. How fun would it be to have a big crowd of all our family and friends, many beers to choose from, and comfortable food? I don't want to be Bridezilla. I just want the party of MY lifetime.
Let me know what you think. By the way, I'm not having any attendants. I don't want anyone to go through any crappy obligatory expenses, or to play favorites with my loved ones, whether they feel that way or not. The wedding party will be me, Deric (of course), Dad and Uncle Ron. Everyone has agreed, and everyone seems to be happy with this.
We want a comfortable wedding that's as far from snobbish as possible. My only crazy demand is that my cake be exactly as I order. I'm a Nazi about ordering food, so I feel sorry for the kind folks at the El Dorado because I'm really particular. I don't even like cake, but you can be certain I'll get the cake I want.
Deric is thinking we should get an ooomph-bah band to make it complete.... then again, Deric wants to wear an off-white suit with a white fedora. I said no immediately. He said, "What's wrong with that?!" I said, "Nothing, as long as you're Simon le Bon in the 'Hungry Like the Wolf' video." Ok, I have a FEW standards... smile...
Anyway, your ass had better be back by then because I'm not getting married without you. simple as that.
I miss you. I love you. My jaw is longing to give you a sound bite!
Dottie sent me some pix of you, me and Shiloh. Interested? I can forward them you way if you like... I'm cute, tan and brunette, and you are, well... lame and really blond.
Miss you so much. Thanks for calling me on my birthday. Sorry you have to spend yous and Julie's over there. I'm proud of you. You turned out to be a really good boy (SURPRISE!!). No, not that... you've turned into a man worthy of our family name and I'm proud to be related to you.
You make me so proud. You make me miss you. You make me love you. I will always be your closest blood. Time, blood and circumstances can never change that. You're stuck with me... I love you so much, Jamers!
Be back in time to see my "Old Maid" status disappear. About time, eh? Take off, hoser!
Have rambled on for toooo long. Ultra tired, working crqzy hours, but as happy as a clam in high tide. I love my life these days, but it's not complete without you. I'm counting the days as much as you are.
Love you so much!
Cheers,
Heather lee
