buffalo's tour guide
The city should pay me for all the directions and advice I give to people wandering through the main street wasteland on my weekend walks downtown. It's at least a few people on every walk. There really is nowhere else for them to go for info since almost nothing is open.

Unfortunately I couldn't convince a Japanese tourist to go somewhere besides tho fridays for chicken wings. She heard those were the best ones and she was walking so I didn't really know where else she would get/ could get to

You should start a business.

Salt and Pepper
I know I had gotten a gray hair or two but the other day at Lord and Taylor in the fitting room for some reason the lights really made the grays shine! Ugh I am not ready for that. Then today I went to the barber and seeing all the hairs fall on the smock there are lots of lighter ones mixed in now. I am not ready to be salt and pepper and especially not ready to be all salt! My mom went gray really young and so did my grandfather but my dad is not even all gray now and he is almost 70.

I guess as Will.i.am says I got it from my mama. So not ready for this , I'm not even 29 yet!

Plus the barber asked if I was keeping my beard or if he should keep my sideburns and I said I was not keeping it for some reason but actually I am so now there is a gap between my sideburns and where my facial hair starts! Classy!

mk - 05/06/12 15:25
I remember that shirt! Hmmm I wonder what I've had since middle school...probably a sweet Bush t-shirt or something. I was so cool.

Tater Tots
Went to Colter Bay last night with (e:flacidness) and (e:libertad) and I ordered a chicken bacon bbq sandwich and guess what! THEY HAD TATER TOTS AS A SIDE! I feel like I never have tater tots offered in restaurants and let me tell you they do not skimp on the tots, you get like a million, I was in pure bliss.
paul - 05/03/12 23:29
I generally haven't liked the food I ate there but I do like tater toast. Maybe I should try it again.

Corporate Challenge
So I just signed up for the corporate challenge which is a 3.5 mile walk/run. I really would like to be able to run the whole thing but honestly I can currently run about 25 feet before getting winded. That leaves me with only 1 month to really get in shape for this thing! oh and I'm lazy so that kinda makes it harder....I can always walk , I registered as a runner with some walking breaks but I'd really like to run it! Plus they are hardcore, it says like if I try to cheat and take a shortcut , not only am I disqualified but so is my whole company forever. That seemed a little harsh but really who tries to cheat at these things?
mk - 04/29/12 21:58
I think Nichols does this. My knee hurts too much to try to the run the whole thing. Maybe we could do it together, or do you have to walk with your work friends???
paul - 04/25/12 23:15
I feel like I should try next year.

No That is a really Huge deal for companies.... It is really competitive.... Plus I think there are a lot of sponsors guessing some big and some small ... I'm never done it but guessing there might be some big winnings to... I think it is one of those where the do team time so one slow person and argh..... I trick with running is when you feel winded you have to keep going... That winded means you aren't in shape... Or if you can only go for 20 sec. Go all out... Then when you see how far you go drop two objects on the ground if that helps and do wind sprints... If you get to tired stop... Next day do the same amount and shorten the breaks in between.... As an example... Sprinting and long distance isn't the same thing but you need to get that heart going and slowly get into shape...
