New babyseat

The time is running by! Isaac is in a new car seat. We had wanted to keep him in a baby seat as long as possible. They are just safer and better to use. The last several times he's been in the car though, he has been very upset. When he gets in the seat you can see that he wants to sit up. We bought him a new booster seat so he can sit up now.



It was actually a really enjoyable experience with my wife. Though I think she thought I was mad the whole time, or maybe stressed. It's hard to flip from work mode to home mode. I don't get into home mode enough. Have you ever been annoyed with something but didn't understand why, or what? We had planned to meet at Wal-Mart to buy this car seat. However, when we got there she asked if she could buy some other things. It was a change in the plans! But of course, I said "yes, no problem honey". So we continued shopping, which was annoying. But I had said it was okay to start with. So how can I be mad? I said it was okay to start with. The human mind is confusing. So let this be a public apology to my wife. I'm sorry for the way I acted, I didn't mean to be short. I was just trying to go home I guess.

Oh speaking of Wal-Mart. Guys, don't let you wives go there at night. I went to Wal-Mart late one night recently, it was somewhat scary. I parked my car and went towards the entrance. There were near 15 people just hanging out. They weren't waiting on anybody of anything, just there. After I bought my items and went out to my car, I was followed. Being that I am a police officer, I am always carrying a weapon. That night I had my trusty Glock handgun. As I approached my car, I pulled my gun out and just walked with it. Within seconds the individual made a turn and stopped following me. I thought that was the end of it. Last night, Lynne was followed by a different person. She drove away from Wal-Mart and the guy followed her to the Blockbuster. She sat in her car and called me. Within a few short minutes I was there. The guy was gone.

Well... that should be enough. I've got some funny pictures from grandpa. I'll post those tomorrow.

So not everything I post will be about me. This is an email I got from my brother. I doubt it's validity. However it is funny.
================================================
The US Navy today announced that it has released a senior Al Qaeda terrorist after questioning him extensively for 27 days while being held prisoner aboard a US aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea In a humanitarian gesture, the terrorist was given $50 US and a white 1962 Ford Fairlane automobile upon being released from custody. The photo below shows the terrorist on his way home just after being released by the Navy.

Mike Huckabee

It's a shame.

Mike Huckabee has bowed out of the presidential race. I predict Obama as our next president.

March 4th Primaries

Well the primary results are in, and they are a joke. Republicans should be ashamed of themselves. Only 9% of all registered republicans choose to vote in the primaries. I heard of several caucus meetings that were an embarrassment. Republicans came out in low numbers of 4 or 6 people. The democratic caucuses had 200+ people attending.

It makes me want to get involved...

It's Monday! ok, so the day after Monday

It's Monday! Well kind of... See I took Monday off... again, kind of. I worked from 4am to 10pm. So I had much of the day off. I would love to say I accomplished all the household chores I needed to, but that would be lying. I did get a lot done though. The backyard was cleaned up a little, and I cleaned out my shed. I still have a lot to do in that shed also. I want to run 220v electricity to it. It is in desperate need of lighting and power. With a 220v line I could put in a window A/C unit for the summer months.

Back to "it's Monday!" Yesterday Uncle Jay published another video. He's a blogger that creates "newscasts" about the news. It's really a great show to watch. See his latest at http://www.unclejayexplainsthenews.com/
He also has a really good one about congress, http://www.unclejayexplains.com/2007/09/03/uncle-jay-explains-the-news-september-3-2007/

My calendar for this month is Elitism. I love the comments, "It's lonely at the top. But it's comforting to look down upon everyone at the bottom." Is that how it feels to be a CEO? I think at times my job is lonely. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact I am a sole employee. I work with many of the other departments in the city though. Have I told you what I do?
The first day of the work week I work for public works in code enforcement. I spend 4 hours a week looking for city ordinances violations on nights and weekends. One hour I worked I wrote 17 citations in 60 minutes. Most of it was for trash as a eyesore, or trailers parked overnight. It's a temporary assignment to help clean up the city.
The middle three days I work in the Fire Marshal's Office. I'm a fire inspector and arson investigator. It means a I visit area businesses and enforce the fire code through inspections. I also create pre-plans of all the city businesses. It is also my job to investigate and determine the cause of all fires in the city limits.
The fifth and final workday, I ride patrol with the police department. I do this to keep up with my skills and training.

Okay... well that's a lot of writing for me. I'm going to head home.
