Hello All,I hope that you all had a great week!! It seemed to have gone by pretty quickly, although some would argue with that. But…I do hope that it was as great as you each deserve. I had a good week….and ready for a nice smooth weekend! Today’s blog title is brought to you by my FAVORITE rap Artist of all time…Mr. Kanye West. I LOVE this guy and pretty much 99% of his music. So with that, I will jump into the blog.
Erika’s 10 Things I Think I Think –
1. Stupid 100 degree days…I am not a fan. They came back with a vengeance. Now we are suffering the wrath.
2. Ever get the need to rearrange things? I feel the need to rearrange my room? Why? I have no clue…just feel the need. May have to act on that this weekend.
3. My friend Heather brought this up…but I will elaborate also. I don’t like the people that feel the need to consistently comment on someone’s weight whether they are overweight or underweight. We live in a society that is very “image” conscious so the concept of weight has been turned over to the tabloids. Do us all a favor…keep your opinions to yourself…no one gives an ounce what you think about their weight.
4. Just a little positivity…”All our Dreams can come true…if we have the courage to pursue them.” Walt Disney
5. Football season is not coming fast enough….Also good for Roger Goodell not wasting anytime suspending Donte Stallworth. I do have to admit…Mike Vick got a lot more time in jail for killing an animal…Mr Stallworth got 30 days in jail for drunk driving and killing a man. Our legal system is screwed up just a tad….
6. As I sit here and type this…a bacon lettuce and tomato sandwich sounds oh sooooo good.* Note…that didn’t last long…sandwich was created and destroyed mid blog.
7. I HATE folding laundry. It is the absolute worst. Plus my dryer sucks (mental note…call them and have them replace it today) and I have to run the load two or three times to have it completely dried.
8. I can’t believe I have been a father for nearly 6 years….man time FLIES by.
9. I haven’t played scrabble in a while. I am in dire need of a mind massage. Anyone game? They have it on Facebook (which we all spend our time on there anyway, and they have Lexulous). So send me a request any one that wants to play. Not you Pete…I massacred you last few times. The national guard is still cleaning up the mess.
10. Thank…God…It’s…Friday!

Rachael Real Moment – I am in the midst of writing my best story…ever. This is not a joke. It is a screenplay (I dare NOT divulge any details). I will tell you a few things. Adventures are awesome, especially when you get to make up the details. The main character is my brother Mario and his son Silas. It is not like anything you have ever heard of or read…I can guarantee you that. I have written nearly 65 pages in 11 days. It is both sad and heartwarming. I used Mario because he was an avid outdoorsman and this just fits with him. This is my tribute to him. I believe he is fueling my utter desire to complete it. I haven’t been this inspired in a while partly due to him, and partly due to other factors. Either way…this is a story that has a very surprising twist to it. One that I do not believe any one will see coming. I can’t lie, this story has made shed a few tears while writing it. I am going to finish the first draft in the next two weeks and start the rewrite as I travel next month. Then it is going out to agencies (along with my demo reel for film and a copyright on the script) in August. I will sell a script or three of mine before year’s end.
Eugene Sports thought of the Day – Favre. Favre. Favre. Favre. I AM SICK OF BRET FAVRE. If I have to turn on Sportscenter (Eugene, Sportscenter is a program that we watch sports highlights (a compilation of sports clips and news) on…yes I am a dick). For a Packer, I used to love him…now he is making me want to gouge my eyes out every time I tune into Sportscenter or read Peter King, or go to ESPN.com OR listen to John Madden talk about him. Either way Favre…retire. 
Pete Thought of The Day – Happy Father’s day to each and every one of my fellow fathers out there. I can’t speak for any of you…but for me…Fatherhood is THE greatest thing I have accomplished. Yes I have corrupted my son to no end…but I love that little guy like no other. He gives me new life every day, he makes me want to be a better person…to provide a good life for him. I am grateful that God choose such a wonderful child for me and that he has provided me with insight and wisdom to be a good parent to him. I love being a father…greatest..thing…EVER. I love you Jordan, thanks for making my job that much easier.
Mindy Moment – Two weeks from today Mindy…I will be in Seattle. You better start conjuring up some fun ideas. We could go and hang with Brandon if you’d like…just throwing that out there.
Julie Happy Thought of the Day – I wish I had the power to make all weekends mandatory 3 day weekends. Wouldn’t that be great! And it would be better if we got paid for being off. 
Misty Movie Reviews – No movies I have seen since Tuesday…but I did buy Family Guy season 7.
Family Guy Volume 7- In my house…FAMILY GUY is king. We watch it religiously. Almost every day! So when Volume 7 of Family Guy came out…naturally we got it. It might be THE funniest season of Family Guy to date. I haven’t laughed nearly as hard at any of the other seasons as I did this one. If you LOVE Family Guy…this DVD set is for you. Definitely 5 stars.
JJ song of the week – Taylor Swift took it up a notch. Always thought she was cute as a little country star…but damn. Her music video with T-Pain (She is T-Swizzle) might be one of THE greatest/Funniest things ever. Check it out Here.I guarantee you will laugh. Her lyrics had me cracking up.

Heather Joke of the Day – “Mistaken Identity”A man was being tailgated by a stressed-out woman on a busy boulevard. Suddenly, the light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.
The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration, as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and makeup.
As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up.
He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a holding cell. After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.
He said, ''I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you, and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the'What Would Jesus Do' bumper sticker, the 'Choose Life' license plate holder, the 'Follow Me to Sunday-School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk; naturally...I assumed you had stolen the car .''Priceless.
Hulu Show of the Week– Is this show called “The Riches.” It’s about a poor con artist family that takes on the identity of a rich family, and the show is about how they fit in. It’s actually a pretty good show. I laugh out loud frequently, but it has good writing and awesome characters. Check it out at the link above. Love you Hulu :)

Jordan Quote of the week – “I didn’t get you anything for father’s day…so here you can have these…” (he holds up a pair of floaties, a half eaten doughnut, and a boogie board). “Happy Fathers day he yelled!” 
Coming Attractions – Today – Decided to work from home. Folding the mountain of laundry occupying my kitchen table. Picking up Jordan and we are going fishing. Possibly going to see Year One tonight…looks really funny.
Saturday – At home with Jordan. Going to dinner with Demitria and Jordan for Father’s day. Then going out with my beautiful girl and her friends.
Sunday – Allegedly going to the river. If not…do my normal Father’s day routine. Harkins Cup and an all day marathon at the movie theater. Sounds fun…cause it is.
Monday – At home working. Not much else after that. Football practice and cleaning up my apartment.
Tuesday - In the office? Yes there we go...in the office. Blogging :)
The end –of the blog is here. I hope that you all have a wonderful weekend and most importantly…it is safe. Thank you so much for reading…I love you…God bless you!
