Good morning, all! We're having another scorcher -- the high today will be 105 and still no sign of rain anytime soon.
Stacey, you're in good company with the baseball talk! Vickie and I are big fans too and you won't find us complaining at all!
(See, I'm just sad that you're a Yankees fan but I guess someone has to be, huh?)
Well, here I sit at work but what I came to do didn't take me very long and I'm already done. I had to draw some lightning bolts on a graphic -- from the satellites to the different planes, from planes to the ground, from ground back to the satellite -- you get the picture. The graphics program is proprietary, and created just for this program to interface with the trainer, so it's pretty uh ... I think "awkward" is the only word that applies. Anyhoo, I finally got it and hope it suits the Air Force, who will be in here testing next week. ALL week. Ugh. I hate it when they come to town because it means Judd has to schmooze and entertain, which costs me a lot of money and I also have to do animal chores in the morning because he has to get to work very early to get right out on the test floor. Oh well. I'll live.
Let's see, what else? Yeah, Shaun is getting ready. Tomorrow we're going to finalize the packing and make sure he has all his razors, shampoo, deodorant, etc. They said don't bring anything else because you'll buy it there, but they also take like $450 out of your first paycheck to cover it. That seems like quite a lot to me for t-shirts and underwear and socks. Surely they aren't charging for his uniforms? Well, maybe so. I guess we'll see. Kate is coming to town to spend the night with her friend, and will be over tomorrow so she can tell him goodbye. That will be sad because those two get along much better than Shaun and Erin do.
I guess I'll go ahead and leave because I need to go to Barnes & Noble to get a book. There's a new plan I'm starting Monday morning (part of our two week challenge) ... called Fat Smash. It's basically this: for the first 9 days you eat fruits and vegetables, oatmeal, skim milk, beans and brown rice, egg whites, lowfat yogurt. After that you can add cold cereal, some artificial sweeteners, lean meat. I'm not sure how long that part lasts. Anyway, you can read the 3FC review here.

I guess that's it for now. Hope everyone has a nice Saturday!
