I believe this best sums up what happened: camaraderie –noun, comradeship; good-fellowship. Rob planned for my bachelor party a trip to San Antonio, TX. The agenda was Six Flags on Saturday, and the Alamo on Sunday before coming home. My excitement really began when we picked up the rental ... http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/11/10/bachelor-party-insanity/ I decided that I did want to go back to school once and for all. Last night I applied to the University of Southern Mississippi. I also completed my FAFSA information and requested transcripts from my previous two community colleges. My initial degree selection is "Information Technology", but who knows ... http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/10/21/usm/ So this morning the scale said 199 lbs. I broke free of the 200's!

Huzzah size 34 pants now :) http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/10/09/weight-loss-update/ Yesterday I purchased a new Schwinn hybrid/comfort bike. It has 28"/C700 wheels and is a 21 speed. I was initially going to rent a bike for our Longleaf Trace ride yesterday, but decided it's time to get a bike anyway :) it's actually a bit humorous... We went to Target ... http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/09/22/new-bicycle/ Today is her 29th birthday :) I love you! http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/09/11/happy-birthday-bonita/ I sat in the car Monday morning, and went to push the clutch pedal in to start and it just slammed to the floor. Doh! I had to recently bleed the clutch and refill it with fluid (I figured it was leaking somewhere). Yesterday I knew it was out of ... http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/09/09/mr2-update/ It's been a minute. Lets see, what's been going on... Last Saturday night we went to New Orleans for Karen's 21st birthday. It was a ton of fun. We stayed the night at the Best Western on N. Rampart. The location was perfect, as it was just a couple blocks up ... http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/08/28/long-time-no-update/ I never did follow up, but we got our endorsements! This upcoming Saturday i'm taking the motorcycle with a group of work friends to go dirt/trail riding. I'll be the only motorcycle in the group (all ATV's), but it should be a blast. I'm also going today for a contacts ... http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/08/14/eye-ball-diaries/ This post is broken up into random bits of things happening, life, and updates: Computer: I ordered 2GB of DDR 400 ram from new egg a few nights ago, and they shipped it basically in 1 day (and that was with free shipping!). I now have 3GB of ram installed, woo. ... http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/07/24/randomness/ So sometime over the weekend I must have gotten a minor case of E. Coli or Salmonella. I say minor because I only had one day of gurgly stomach and less than desirable results in de baño.... I've been drinking pedialyte since last night, and have nearly one litre of ... http://thedingo.net/blog/2008/07/16/pedialyte-is-nasty/
