So it has been a long time since I have posted, and for that I can only say that I am sorry. At this point, writing a blog may do nothing but get my thoughts out, for I believe that no one even checks my blog anymore, but thats ok. Lets see if I can organize my thoughts since last I blogged: Ahem, lots of throut clearing.
JOB: Presently still at Logan's Roadhouse in the thriving metropolis of Statesville, NC. Hey, we now have a Sonic DriveIn! I was the Kitchen Manager, but quickly moved out to be a Limbo Manager. Translation: Could not find a front manager who wanted to transfer to Statesville( which I can't understand, did I mention we have a Sonic?) but a K.M. from Kannapolis decided he would make the change, so seeing as he was already a K.M., and I am good at both front and back (nothing dirty there mind you) it was easier to move me to a position where I can help both departments. (Does this sound like another position? GM perhaps) Annnnnyyyway, now the KM is a surpremly buff individual who likes to do dangerous Thai style fighting, and apparently ensuring his arms are similar in size to toddlers balled up and attached to his shoulders, he now presides over the kitchen. And I am not bitter! no really. Just cause he gets 4 shifts a week in the morning, and one close. (something I never got) It does not bother me. They all keep saying they have big plans for me. But the moment they start talking, my higher brain functions take over, and all I hear is Blah, Blah, Blah, take care of guests, Blah, Blah, more money, Blah, Blah.
You get the idea.
Hobbies: The football season was dissappointing. The Panthers had a hard time deciding which Quarterback to use, who to sign, and who was supposed to score the points. I did however get to see the Dallas Cowboys play at the Carolina Coliseum on a Sat night. That was pretty nice. Thanks Kelly, for the birthday gift!! I'm now reading Harry Potter, since, I can't get to a decent book store ofter enough, and I really should focus where I spend my money considering......
WE ARE HAVING A GIRL!!!!: That's right. They all said it couldn't be done. They were nay-sayers. They didn't think it possible. But my swimmers apparently like variety. I like to mix it up a little. Keep people on their toes. Keep 'em guessing. We haven't decided on a name yet, but once we do, everyone will know. I will tell you that if William Harrison wasen't impressive enough, if for nothing than the syllables involved, then you can rest assured that HER name will be no less special and unique!
And if you read this, and are a constant visitor to www.innocuousramblings.com you will no doubt know that we lost our grandfather recently. And out of everything that has happened, short of the coming of my daughter, this was the biggest change of my life. I can't say that I got to see him enough, cause I didn't. I can't say that I told him I loved him enough, cause you never can. Can't say that I will stop missing him, cause thats impossible, but I do know this: He was possibly the greatest man I ever knew. He was the father I needed when our father was working. He taught me how to ride a bike, plant the field, mow the lawn, change the oil in my car, wash dishes, do laundry, play baseball, and how to relax when watching baseball. The fact that my son was able to meet him and get to know him on some scale was important. I hate he won't have the chance to meet my daughter, or her him. When my son looked at me and said after I told him, he would not see Gampie anymore because he died, was "I won't get to see him anymore", and it was difficult. It still is difficult. It will always be difficult. But he is better now,and he dosen't feel anymore pain. Done.
My sons birthday is coming up and for those who are reading this, we will be sending out invitations on monday. It will be on the 23rd of Feburary, at Logan's Roadhouse at around 11:30am.
For now, that is enough. Till then

Yes, you do still have readers. I was wondering though. It has been 5 months. Love GiGi
Of course you have been missed, I've checked you every few weeks.
Time for a new post sir!
I would ask if you are still alive, but I know you are. ( 8 months and counting) GiGi
