I got a call from him today. He said they had some available at Best Buy if I wanted to get one for him for his birthday. Of course, I acted like I really didn't care. And ran over there. But, nothing doing. They were out. Well, technically, they had some in-stock, but they were pre-ordered. Argh.
Oh well. The hunt begins.

Crazy cage fighting knockout
Everybody loves a great knockout in MMA. I'm one of them. The great thing about it is that there's a clear winner. But rare is the case, when the referee and judges have no idea who won. Check this out.

Sleepless in Columbia
Ugh. It's 3:45 a.m. and I can't sleep. On top of this horrible headache, it's so stinkin' windy that I just can't get back to sleep. Instead of tossing and turning, I figured I might as well just surf a bit, maybe post on the blog, and get caught up on my email. So, here I sit, staring at the monitor, typing what seems coherent to me at this hour (hopefully, it makes some sense later). As I write, something in our back porch just toppled over. It's crap like that that's keeping me up. Oh well, enough griping for now.
I was bummed that we had to cancel FPU last night. There was a widespread power outage in the southern part of town that forced us to call it a night. Although some folks were upset, there was nothing we could do, and most of the couples that had kids and sitters, used this opportunity for date night. Can't really complain about that.
Matt and I enjoyed our evening. Sarah tagged along with us to Coldstone. We knew Kaleigh was working so we thought we'd crash and maybe take her up on the 'pregnant' woman discount she'd offered before. Sure enough, she was good on her word. I got me a little Mint Mint Chocolate Chocolate Chip in a waffle cone that hit the spot. Kaleigh was getting off work soon after, so we hung out for a bit to taxi her home later. Later because we had planned on grabbing a pizza and hanging at Sarah's for a while. No sense in ending the evening so short. Especially when Isa was enjoying her time with grandma.
On our way to Sarah's, we placed an order to Domino's so it'd be there shortly after our arrival. By that time, the power was back up and all was well in the world. Well, at least in south Columbia. Traffic lights were up and running so people could actually appear to know how to drive. Maybe it's just me, but it seems that drivers have forgotten how to operate a vehicle. Too many folks have forgotten what a red light means, especially in the turning lane. Most drivers don't even understand what 'Yield' means, especially at a round-a-bout, which annoys me to no end. And, to make things worse, with the power out last night, people forgot how to do the 4-way stop at an intersection with no lights. I guess they are just living up to the state's billing, the 'Show-Me' how-to-drive state.
Well, even with the wind blowing, I think I'm gonna make an attempt at catching the early morning's z's. **Crossing my fingers .. **

Friendships
I was talking with a friend yesterday about her weekend. Her family had come into town for a few days and Matt and I were able to visit with them for a bit on Friday night. Anyway, my friend mentioned briefly a conversation she had with her mom. Her mom told her that she liked her friends and that our group is like a family. I couldn't agree more.
My mom used to be concerned with us, with me, all alone in the Midwest with no family. It wasn't until she met my friends that she realized, we are just fine. She was glad that I had such great friends that really are like my extended family.
I hold my friends dear to my heart. Since I've been away from my family, my friends are an important part of my life. It was that way in college and, even more so now that I'm married and have a family of my own. In fact, I sometimes think good friends should be cherished. It sounds cheesy, I know. But, family is supposed to like you. They're family after all. Friends, on the other hand, they hang out with you if they really like you, not because they have to.
So, here's to all of my friends out there. I love you and pray that God pours His blessings on you. :)

I'm thinking pink!
It's official. All facts point to one thing. A girl. That's right, we're having a girl. And we couldn't be more excited. Well, I know Isa's pretty excited. She's been wanting a little sister, and, well, now she's getting one.
The baby's nice and healthy. She's in the 50% percentile in weight, which is roughly 1 lbs. right now. The heartbeat is good and strong. Her organs and bone structure were perfect.
I just can't stop smiling.

Why can't his happen where I work?
I've seen this clip before and I was reminded of it today. If you're at work and need a good laugh, you've come to the right place. I'm still waiting for something like this to happen where I work.
