Well, I have done it...I am succumbing to the urge to BLOG!!! Actually, I just wanted to be cool like all my friends, so I am going to give this a shot. Many of you out there are rolling your eyes because you know that I am HORRIBLE at returning phone calls, letters, emails, etc...so how will this be any better? Well, it won't. I'm sure I will leave it horribly neglected and only write updates when there is a major crisis. But that's OK! I still want to be cool anyways! And if anyone gets tired of me rambling about stuff they don't really care about...it's pretty easy to just click that little "x" in your upper right hand corner and put me out of your mind.

I'm pretty bored right now. I'm sitting at work wishing I was ANYWHERE but here. Why did they make the walls of my cubicle to beigh-ey? I think it needs to be a more warm and inviting color so that when I see them my gag reflex is not stimulated. Or a window would be nice...a nice big one that does not overlook the enormous parking lot (that is the view my boss has, woop-dee-dooo!!!). Oh well, I guess I will just keep surfing the internet for useless knowledge (I learned today on Wikipedia that cops will use crushed macadamia nuts as a decoy for crack cocaine...apparently they look exactly the same) and job openings that I will never apply for (the CSX railroad is hiring, so is Alabama Power).

Maybe someone is interested in some Cole news. We had his 6-month check-up last Friday (even though he is nearly 7 months old now) and it went really well. He weighs 16 1/2 lbs and he is 28 1/2 inches long...and a big 'ol head. They measured his head 5 times to make sure they were reading it correctly. But, at the end of it all, they said he was perfect and that we should start putting everything in hiding because they think he will be up and walking any time now. I hate that he is growing up so quickly. It honestly blows my mind that it has been 7 months already!! I have enjoyed EVERY stage, and look forward to the next. It is so neat to see how he develops and learns on a daily basis. He loves to imitate facial expressions...and he is GOOD at them!

Ronnie news...he is on the hunt for a new job. We are both SO over the one he has now. I swear the place is ran by a bunch of dumb rednecks who flunked out of business school!! It's taken me a little while to get him to see the light...but I think I have lit a little flame of excitement within him (that sounded SO cheesy). He is now looking at several different types of jobs and considering things that he has never done before...possibly even going back to school...which I support wholeheartedly!! So, pray for us that he succeeds in this endeavor.

OK, I am going to go take my lunch now...the one high-point in the day. Y'all come back now...y'hear!!
