Happy 08 to everyone!
I'm sitting here typing this blog semi-bored out of my mind as I'm sitting @ a city council hearing over a "code compliance" violation on my house. Don't worry I'm not going to jail lol! t was a formality I had to do as I was hooking up my sewer/water @ my house.
My city has this requirement that makes you hook up to the city sewer and water as they go thru and revamp
Cape coral w/ city/water. Its a bit frustrating in a lot of ways because not only do u have to buy ur house and all the stuff that goes into it.. Then they slap u w/ a 5-10 thousand charge for doing this... Sorry for ranting, but I feel bad for all the people that are struggling financially and having to get smacked w/ this also.
As I'm sitting here listening to them call up various peoples to give there stories on why they did/didn't pay there code violations. I've realized that its a tough time for the economy and you start to see how people are struggling w/ paying there bills.. This trickles down to so many things and really makes me want to make sure I'm being wise w/ my finances. I'm very grateful that myself and my wife have taken the time out to put God first in our finances (tithing, not spending on dumb stuff, having accountability financially etc..) But maybe its time to cut down on the starbucks trips?
Hmmmmmm....
Anyway here is my observations for this week:

Wassup everyone…
HAPPY NEW YEARS EVE… it’s currently 6:26 am and I’m sitting here in the Ft. Myers Airport anxiously awaiting my flight to Roanoke VA. to head on over to Lynchburg VA. for a New Years Day event @ Liberty University. Feeling a little groggy right now even though ‘lil man (my son) has been getting Dad and Mom up @ crazy early hours (try 4 am each day… so much for a vacation). I had a great xmas week… spent some time up @ my uncle’s house in Safety Harbor FL. catching up w/ all my extended family (on my mom’s side) … got to see a lot of cousins that I hadn’t seen in a while… it’s bugged out to see how much someone can grow in like 2 years.
Me and wife spent the xmas day showing off the ‘lil dude (my son) to pretty much everyone since none of that side of the family had seen him @ all since he was born… it was great as every one was taking turns holding him and passing him around like mashed potatoes etc. That evening we stayed in Ybor City (my old stomping grounds) and the next day we got to walk around and I got to show my kid where dad grew up @ (like he even understands but oh well….). With my wife off for the holidays and me pretty much chilling (shows are slow this time of the year) we’ve been spending a lot more “family” time together … which really just means we’re cleaning out the garage .. ha ha. Seriously though it is great for all of us to be home together as opposed to our normal crazy abnormal lifestyles.
Hope you have a great new years! Here is my observizzles from this week:

HO HO HO to some.... Humbug to others... BUT MERRY CHRISTmas to everyone.. Wassup yall.. it's xmas eve and I have finished stuffing the last gift into a bag recycled from last year (or is it the year before..?) either way it's 10:43 and I wanted to wish errrbody' a wonderful Jesus-filled xmas. Me and the wifeee are finishing up the xmas presents for eachother and for the kiddo... (which to be honest I don't really understand seeing as how he's 7 months old and will probably just stick the wrapping paper in his house and ingnore the gift) but either way it's nice to be able to finally breathe a sigh of relief as the xmas season is upon us etc.. and it's also almost over. I love me some xmas as much as the next dude but realistically I am ready for this holiday season to be over with... is that wrong? It just seems like the added stuff to be done just adds more junk to distract me from the true meaning... I'm sure yall can relate? Well either way put down that eggnog as I run down my special xmas observations from this week...

What up yall?
it's currently dark: 30 outiside... (this is an inside joke, my old football coach used to say he was gonna keep us out till dark: 30 until we got the play right .. meaning very early or very late @ night) and I'm deciding to be proactive about this blog this week as I looked over last week and realized how all over the place it was...
SORRY.
Last week it seemed like I spent the whole week trying to not get over the exhaustion of the previous weeks drivings, no sleep etc.. I apologize... Either way the dude is back like sideburns and I'm here to get this blog jump off up and rolling... w/ no further ado .. here we go.

What is up the dizzle?
Im sitting here in my wife's car (which is much cleaner than mine) listening to some old school hip hop trying to find some musical inspiration... actually what I'm doing is watching the kiddo (who is asleep in the backseat) while the wifee is working out in the gym... Either way I'm trying to get some musical ideas as I'm working on this rerelease of the Yearbook album. This is my first day back as I've been in the midwest etc.. as I did the superchick xmas tour (go to kj52.libsyn.com to see the video of it or the kj myspace page) it feels great to be back in SUN!!! It was a constant snow/rain fest for the last few days as we hit up Indiana, Michigan, Illinois and Ohio (the finest states in the midwest I'm convinced).
Overall the tour was a success (all 5 dates ha ha) but towards the end I was definetly fiending to come home and was almost one storm away from being stuck in Peoria IL. Either way it's great to be back home and chilling.. except for the fact that my son got me up @ 5am this AM wide awake... (thanks kid.. youll pay for that one day).
Either way after a hard days night (cue the beatles music) here is my Tweezervations (i.e. 5tweezy observations)
