Um...yeah...wow. I haven't been on here in years it feels like! Last post was when Obama got elected into office. Yeah crazy stuff happened since he's in the white house now. That one press conference he did at night around 8-9 pm hour about how congress needs to approve the stimulus bill - that was funny as hell. But Dow Jones is down and my 401k looks like shit. At least I'm 23 and can recover. People in there 60s are peed-o'd cause they can't retire cause their 401k took a dump. Anyway off this topic now...
Christmas was cool. I got a Dale Jr drawing/poster by Louis hanging on my wall with my other nascar gear, My new Cannon Power shot SX10IS, [found out they are coming out with a new one that is HD 1080p grrr] some clothes, Hello Kitty button earrings from QVC, and a new Samsung A550 32" 1080p tv. I got the sound to not sound like a tin can. Still have it after the holiday return policy ;)
Um...what else...*thinks*
Yeah, went to the Marlins fan fest with Crystal, her boyfriend, and Keisha. I couldn't believe how all the players remembered her! I don't know the players well since I don't go to much games but I do know what they drive! haha I got a Marlins hat and had some of them sign it. The ones I managed was John Baker, Alfredo Amezaga, Gabby Sanchez, [who looks super cute and I got a pic with him!] Hanley Ramirez [don't know how I got it. right time, right place!] and yeah a few others but can't recognize their chicken scratch! I missed Dan Uggla for the 3rd time now! I was so close but got AMAZING pics.
It was a good time to test the camera from afar [they didn't want us to take pics in the line] and WOW they came out awesome! My camera is the shit, yall!! I should upload pics. Crystal is wanting me to go to opening day vs. Nationals. I told her we should take the day off and do the whole tailgate thing and not rush like last year.
We're planning Daytona this year. I found the Coke seats behind pit road for $305ish. I want those seats plus parking! No reply from Joey yet. Hopefully soon!
Oh and the 500 "Big One". It's both their faults. I'm a fan of Red Bull but BV needs to grow up. Dega 06 sounds familiar. If you don't know what I'm talking, about you live under a rock. EVERYONE talked about it.
Also, MAC has their Hello Kitty line and OMG I <3 it! I got all three nail polishes, lip conditioner in 'popstar', make-up case and a hello kitty tote! AHHH!!! So cute! I wanted the train case and the purse mirror but SOLD OUT! Damn.
Yeah I gotta show you pics off the camera. It's the shiznit yall.

Remember the story last week about Mom pulling out #83 from the deli and I said that might be good luck and hopes he makes the race and did? Well, yesterday Mom did the same thing at the deli but pulled #84. I told her I hope he makes it cause he didn't make a race yet. They're running that COT so it might help. Well, AJ MADE THE RACE!!! Both AJ and Brian makes the race! WOOT WOOT!!! I swear Mom has some good luck!!
Kasey starts second and Martin and Junior are somewhere mid pack.

I went shopping with Mother to Publix to do some grocery shopping. First stop was the Deli dept. where Mom got number 83. Number 83 happens to be Vickers' and Red Bull. I told Mom this was a sign that he might make the race this weekend. Qualifying just ended and he will make the show. Mickey didn't have a fast speed [again] so that's what saved Vickers. Phew.
Now my gripe with NASCAR and NEXTEL. During qualifying, they talked about Robby Gordon has a bare car again this weekend. Actually, he had a sponsor on his car, Motorola, but, NASCAR told him to take the logo off the car because it was a conflict with NEXTEL. What bugged me was that Moto makes the cell phones for NEXTEL. So, how in the hell is that a conflict with NEXTEL. Doesn't Sprint sell Moto's too? Robby made that same point out in
this article. People hate him, but I give the guy credit to a lot of things. I was the only one who cheered him on at Daytona in '05 during driver intros.
Since AT&T bought out Bell South and Cingular,
AT&T is taking NASCAR to court. Jeff Burton has Cingular as the sponsor and all they want to do is change the logo and sponsor name. NASCAR says no because it's not a "Grandfathered sponsor when NEXTEL signed in 2004." Cingular is AT&T. Just the name changed. Company didn't.
Damn, I didn't know I can rant that good! Must of been a good subject...
Did I mention that I saw Smoke in Publix Thursday? He was a nice pin-up of Goody's powder. If I could only find Troy to steal him. Must ask Chris if we are getting him in, too.
