Breakfast of champions...

First off, I posted this thing this morning at 11:30, but then realized all my edits and half the post had disappeared. Friggin' blogger didn't register my edits. Here's hopin' this version stays up for a while. Friggin' Blogger! Now, here's the post...

Not too suggestive I hope. Yea, that's to Corn dogs and a DIET Mountain Dew. Deep fried wonderfulness! Why diet Dew? Type Two my brutha. Full blown soda makes my blood sugar peak. Cut it off cold a few years ago when I found out my sugar was at about 540.

I stop off at a local "stop-n-rob" each mornin' to pick up my goodies. I went without all summer long, no problem, but started goin' back and gettin' this stuff for breakfast again each mornin' when I started teachin' down to Florence again a month or so ago. I'm hooked. Full blown junkie.

I've gained about five pounds since the semester started, pushin' myself back up to about 300 Lbs. Meanwhile, Denise is taking exercise classes out at the main campus. She's goin' to a aerobics class on Monday s and Wednesday and ridin' a stationary bike for an hour in another class on Fridays. She was sore as hell the first week, but she's gotten into it since then and everything is cool.

Meanwhile, I'm porkin' up and startin' to look more like this dude. Oops, sorry ma'am. Guess it was the mustache. Wait, now here's one for the ladies? Mmmm, some decent booze and somethin' to play with later. How freakin' considerate of them!

I usually finish it off the morning meal, ether on the way down or usually on the way up, with a nice stogy...

Like this one. Nice and smooth, and just big enough to last me till I get back up to the base. I've gotten to where I like to buy them in these sorts of lengths, 5 to 5 1/2 inches, so they last about twenty minutes. Usually gets me where I want to go without leavin' much of a nub in the ashtray.

I sat through a job interview this afternoon, for that San Saba job. If I get it I'll be drivin' down to Florence in the mornin', teachin' a few classes down there (M - F). Then I'll be drivin' a little over and hour to San Saba to teach a few classes there (M-Th). Then I'll be drivin' back to Ft Hood to teach a few evening classes. All in all, the driving will be a hastle, but there's money for mileage in the deal and an extra ten grand a year if everything works out the way it should. Maybe after I get my bills payed off I'll drop the Florence classes or the evening classes. Take it easy. Who knows.

The interview went well. Everyone out there knows me, so I should have it sown up unless some other dude shows up with better qualifications. Between you and me though, there ain't anyone around here with better qualifications, so I'll probably get the job.

We're lookin' at another fun weekend. Denise and I will take mom out to eat Chinese food later today. It's my turn to pick the restaurant tonight, so you know where were goin'. Mmmmm! After dinner we'll take mom home and then headin' ether to Academy or Florence to watch a football game.

The kids in Florence are having their Homecoming game tonight, and the kids were decked out in Mums like you wouldn't believe. One big football player showed up in my third period class with Mum on each arm. He was makin' a racket, walkin' up to me and out the door. I told him "You know, that doesn't look gay at all!", and the class erupted in laughter. I couldn't keep a strait face ether. They better win tonight. I'll give 'em hell Monday if they don't.

There's a gun show in Austin this weekend, so we'll probably be headin' down there to check it out. We need to go down there anyway to do a reconnaissance for the concert next weekend. Denise and I have tickets to the ACL festival on Saturday and Sunday. We want to get a hotel room near Zilker Park so we can walk to the gig. It should be fun.

We've also got plans to see a movie and check out a new Cheddar's that's just opened up nearby. We'll see how everything goes.

Anyway, you guys try to have a great weekend and we'll talk again later. Cheers!

Ain't nothin' wrong with a good "Dew" in the morn! And as for corn dogs, I prefer three!

I ALMOST laughed when I heard on the news that one group of Ike-survivors existed on cold, uncooked hot dogs and leftover pizza for THREE WHOLE DAYS!!!

I thought---"So, what's the complaint???"

Nancy said...

that link...THAT LINK!!

I am almost speechless...but only because it's hard to laugh and breathe at the same time...

Chuck said...

So yesterday we have to look at your hairy gut and today it's your crotch with corndogs. What kind of website is this?? Shouldn't there be a disclaimer or something?

Well we can look on the bright side....at least you didn't insert them anywhere and then take a pic.

LOL

Bruno - Really, that sounds like a good weekend to me.

Nancy - Glad you liked it, and thanks for comin' by.

Chuck - Dude, I'm tryin' to get one of those content warnings, like Bruno up there. He's raised the bar for all of us.

PRH said...

Don't know about the MD and the "Dogs", but love those IT Ceegars!

That does look a little suggestive, but at least you didn't exaggerate or over state your case!

You gonna have to cut down on those stogies man...they're just for fun!

Sure wish I could go to that concert with you...gonna be great!

Hey there, just stumbled across your blog and I know exactly where all these places are. I'm from Killeen and the whole family still lives in good 'ol Harker Heights. Small world! :)

Hope you're having a great weekend, FHB! I won't lecture you on the evils of artificial sweeteners...
By "mums" do you mean the flower?
Good luck as well on the job thing!

Suldog said...

I had a hard time getting past the corn dogs between your legs. Well, actually, a hard time isn't quite the right way to put it. And, the dude with the boobs and ponytails... or lady. Yikes!

All in all, I now know that the rest of my week has to be better.

FHB said...

Thanks folks. Yea, everything is cool. Happiness.
