Tired

Alright, so here we are at another horrible, sluggish Monday praying for Friday (for me its actually thursdays). To help alleviate some of the mediocre processes of your afternoon I thought I would write a few things down about my weekend and toss it out there for you to read at your discretion. I am using bigger words than usual, dont get to excited about it, I am sure I will dumb down any moment.

First I should start with any updates I have for some of my other posts from the past week. My iPod shuffle came this morning, just before I left for Delta. I charged the little guy up and tossed a playlist on it and have been trying it out since then. This iPod is my favorate by far, it is rediculously small, even if it manages somehow to unclip itself from whatever you have it attached to, it weighs so little that it will not unplug itself from the headphones. Speaking of the headphones, it appears apple changed them a little bit, this may not be that new but it's definately new to me. My youngest brother Zack purchased a nano a few months back which still had the typically white ear buds with a tube like thing attached to the disc shaped ear bud. Now the ear buds I received with mine actually smoothly move from what once was the "tube" to the disc and also they have a more rubber feel to them overall instead of the hard plastic of old. Anyways, back on topic, the shuffle is amazing, if your looking for the most portable iPod to date this is definately for you.

Another update, I did make it to IHOP yesterday in Mt Pleasant. The newly opened resteraunt was very easy to find, being right on M-20 or whatever that main road is that I have taken so many times to the Soaring Eagle Casino. Adam, John, Melissa, JR, and I all went together, most of us ordering pretty much the same thing, a breakfast of eggs, hasbrowns, and a meat of our choice followed with three pancakes. JR decided to try the all you can eat pancakes, the record for that resteraunt being 27 pancakes. Even with our coaching JR only managed to eat 12 pancakes, but in doing so he beat our waiters record of 10, and also that was the most that waiter had personally served to a person. I think we are going to have to prep a little better so that next time we all can try.

I went to a Saginaw Spirits game Saturday, and watched them defeat the Windsor Spitfires, five to four. I think we all enjoyed it a lot, I personally liked that it wasn't a blowout but instead was close all three periods. After the game we all headed out to Lucky's to celebrate Eric Gies's birthday. Everyone had a good time I think, and it was fun to see everyone out there. From what I've heard Eric didnt have such a good time the following morning.

That pretty much highlights a few things from the last time I posted. Today the plan is to make it through work, race home, and try and catch Heroes in hi-def (our DVR cant record hi-def shows). I also have this weird bump on my head, I have no idea where it came from as I have no memory of hitting me head at any point this weekend. I noticed the bump last night and its somewhat noticable to anyone that looks at my head. Its not a bruise and doesnt hurt at all, unless it is what is causing this horrible headache, in which case it hurts a lot then.

Outlook beyond today is pretty gray, I dont have a lot of plans, so if anyone has any ideas on something fun to do, let me know.
