Okay...I am going to try to remember all the highlights from the last 4 weeks....
I went to Mexico for work. That was pretty cool. I am going again the week of July 5th. I need to practice my Spanish for when I go back.
I went to a streetfest in chi-town. I drank out of some girls flask while waiting in line to piss. After that, I don't remember much.
I went racing last weekend. I ended up wrecking my kart in the feature. It sucked too because I was coming through the pack quick.
I have also gone to CT, NC, and TN for work in the past few weeks. It has kept me busy and I guess I like it. It keeps me out of trouble.
I am still running a lot. I can do 10 miles no problem (kind of) but now it is time to bump it up to 15 miles in one run. I want to do this at least once a week.
What's coming up the next few weeks.....
On Saturday, I am going to the cubs game. Then I am going to sluggers. This is where I lost my phone. I am determined to get out of there with my phone. I am excited since my buddy Tom is coming up as well. I will be in wrigleyville all day and night...there is a band that we're going to see that starts at midnight. I have to remember it is a journey and not a race. I'll try to keep it under control.
On June 19, I am leaving to go fishing in Canada. That's right...fishing for a whole damn week....no phone, email, internet, crazy women, traffic, airplanes, stupid people, and no tv. I am hoping this is just what I need.
When I get back, I work 4 days...planning on going to Taste of Chicago and who knows what else. We'll see what happens.
Well that's it in a nutshell. I just have to keep earning the $$ and keep running and keep my sanity.
Oh I forgot, I got a couple of job offers this week from different companies. I am not going to take them but I thought it was weird. My mom is losing her job in October. Ironic I suppose....
Okay, that's it for real this time. I have to go to bed.
Later,
Bobby

Party+Party=No Money+No Sleep+No Phone
So the last two weekends have been nothing but amazing.
2 weekends ago....
Went to STL for a bachelor's party. We went to Fast Eddie's in Alton before the cards/cubs game. I highly recommend it. Then we watched the cubs lose. The rest of the night was comprised of Johnny's, bars, a strip club with midget wrestling, and the casino. I accomplished everything I wanted. It was great.
Last weekend....
Went to Chicago for the weekend. After some pregame, we went to slugger's in wrigleyville on Friday night. Within the first 20 minutes, I bought a round of shots (11) for everyone and lost my phone. I was pretty pissed. After that, we went to an after hours bar and drank some more. We got home about 4:30 am. Saturday...derby day...up by 9...drunk by 11 am. Went to brunch with consisted of a car bomb, shepard's pie, and some beer. After that, we had to go to starbucks to get a doulbeshot of expresso. After that, back up to wrigleyville (sluggers) to try to find my phone again and to watch the cubs. We didn't watch the cubs or find my phone, but we taught some kids how to high five the right way. It was pretty sweet. Then we went to the OTB and my horse got last...on to uncle julio's in which was a great meal. Then we passed out during the bulls and blackhawks game. We got up, shotgunned some old style, drank some whiskey, and off to rush street we went. Keep in mind this is 1 am. We found some ladies, danced, and got home to watch the sun come up while drinking a beer on the roof. There is a lot more I can say but you get the picture.
5 things I learned over the past two weekends:
Partying isn't cheap. My budget doesn't include this much fun.
Losing your phone isn't cool. I went 6 days without a phone.
I am not very cool. I found out because I didn't know a song. You tube "on a boat"
Drinking doesn't bother my body as much as going to bed usually when you get up.
Slugger's is the hookup place. I didn't know this until Monday. I remember "dancing" with some girl until I realized I lost my phone. It was God intervening...
This weekend....
Going to buffalo wild wings for dinner tonight.
Not doing anything on Saturday.
Going fishing on Sunday, then dinner with my mom for mother's day.
That's more like it.

I don't have a good title for this post
I think it's been too long since I have updated. I apologize, I was traveling a lot this month and I have been leading some kaizens. Here I am, past my bedtime since I am taking tomorrow off! I was supposed to have President's Day and Good Friday off this year and didn't take them off, so I call tomorrow my President's Day. I am good with it.
So this is what I have been up to:
Working out. I have been working out almost everyday. I am at the point now where it feels weird if I don't. I ran 8 miles today. Yeah, that's right. I am at the point where I need a better pair of shoes so I can run longer distances. I am hoping that I can run a 10k next month or even a half-marathon. I am 9 minute miles and feel like I can run that pace all day long. I would like to get down to 8:30 miles for 10 miles straight. It's gonna take some time.
Working a lot of hours. With the economy being down, I have a lot of work on my plate. I am not entirely sure why, but I am not complaining. I have a new boss now since my old one received a promotion. I am okay with it. I think I will have a lot of work to do again next month, but maybe not so much traveling
Messing around with Rachel. I thought it was over. Women are so damn crazy, especially this one. She told me she was crazy and I agree with her. We're just friends for now and it probably should stay that way until she gets some things straight. I am too nice. I get told that all the time. Don't worry, she isn't slowing me down or keeping me away from pursuing other interests.
Racing. I went racing for the first time outdoors last weekend. My kart was fast as my brother and I were about 3 tenths faster per lap than everyone else. I won my heat races. It was a shame the feature races got rained out. I could have won 500 bucks!
I bought some dhr stock 2 days ago. It has gone up some 5 dollars since then. I am very happy with this purchase. Thank you Danaher for my job and stock performance.
I am going to St Louis this weekend for a bachelor's party. I hope this is the most amazing, crazy, and sleepless weekend in my life. We are definitely going to the cards/cubs game. I am sure there won't be a whole lot I remember but I will take plenty of pictures. Next weekend I am going to Chicago.
Well I think that's it really. I don't know what else to say. My eye is fully healed. I did go to the doctor and I still have 20/20 vision. I signed a lease for another 12 months for my apt. I think I will have the same job for the rest of the year.
Later,
Bobby

Boom, Roasted
I must say that this week was the worst week of 2009 for me. It was downright horrible. Disaster after disaster. It all started last Saturday night....
So remember in my last post how I said met this girl...well turns out I did like here and we went out a few times since my last post. I even let her inside my apartment, which I just don't let anyone in. Girls are crazy(they could kill you and leave you for dead in you apartment). Anyway, she was acting weird. I could tell right away it was "ex boyfriend" stuff. She had the look. I saw the writing on the wall.
Now onto Monday. This week I had a 3 day meetings with everyone in my office. On Monday night, we went to my boss' boss' house for heavy appetizers and drinks. I walk in and they asked me if I wanted a beer. Instead of my usual yes, I declined due to a full punch bowl of sangria which no one was drinking. I never had it so I was eager to try it. I don't remember leaving that house. I don't know how I got my shoes on. I woke up on my bathroom floor at 4AM the next morning. Crazy. It gets worse....turns out I puked about 5 times. I drank practically the whole thing of punch. I am proud of that, but not the eye ball that was completely red from broken blood vessels due to puking (more on that later). The bowl of sangria had brandy, wine, and rum in it. Very tasty.
Tuesday....I felt good but my eye hurt like no other. I didn't have my phone or car so I didn't know how I was going to work. I had to go to work. I had to give a presentation to everyone in the office, plus a guy who reports directly to the CEO of the company. Good thing the lights were dimmed. I made sure I sat in the corner as far away as I could. Everyone knew I was drinking but only 2 folks knew what happened after I left. Turns out, my buddy came and picked me up. Also, it turns out the night before I kept talking about the girl I met and how pissed I was since she didn't call my after I sent her flowers. This is when I knew I liked this girl. When you're drunk and talking about a woman instead of trying to find one, that's when you know you like one. That's my point of view. There is more to this story but I have to keep it PG-13 here. I did get a text from Rachel thanking me for the flowers....a fricking text...wtf.
Wednesday....I'm ready to pull my eye out of its socket. It is killing me without improvement. I didn't know what to do. Once again, I had to go to work. It was necessary. I managed through the day and had to go to a business dinner at Big Bowl. I really liked Big Bowl and would go back again.
Thursday....This morning started out with a 6:30 AM conference call. It was about my future with my boss' boss. He thinks I will be getting transferred sometime in June or July and wanted me to go month to month on my lease. No thanks...that costs about an extra 350 per month and there is no guarantee that I will be moving. After that, I spent the day facilitating a VSM event. The event went well. That night, I went out to dinner with another boss of mine. We watched Purdue lose and talked. I found out that my boss' boss didn't have a clue what happened at his house, hence why I still have a job.
Friday....I am thinking I am going to need eye surgery to repair the blood vessels. My eye was feeling better but not looking much better. We finished off the VSM, I went to the orthodontist, and went and played basketball from 6-8. Basketball has become something I enjoy. Well, during one of the games, I jammed my finger bad. I mean I thought it was going to fall off. I wanted it fall off. I didn't cry or cuss. I had to keep it PG there....little kids in the area. I went home and fell asleep during the Michigan State game. Oh, I got a text from Rachel at 6AM saying sorry she was being distant, she has a lot going on in her life. I'm a engineer...I figured that out last Saturday!
Saturday....Eye is starting to look better. Wikipedia says 10-14 days for it to heal. I went and worked out, which felt good. Then I went to the grocery store and got my car looked at.....estimate at 125 bucks to fix the leaky exhaust. I can handle that. I made a steak dinner for my buddy who saved my life earlier in the week and his fiancee. It was the least I could do.
Sunday....Worked out again....got nothing going on. I have to go drop off my car to get fixed and sign a lease today. I don't know for how long yet. After this week, I feel like moving to somewhere far like Alaska.
Haven't heard from Rachel. I predict it's over. I tried to call her but she didn't answer or return my call. Oh well. I am going to be traveling for the next three weeks so I won't have time to think about things like women, my housing situation, or my eyeball. I get to escape reality and travel to CT, Penn (twice), and OR. In the grand scheme of things, these things aren't disasters. I still have a job. 10% of the US can't say that right now. My finger still hurts, but I can type.
This week I went from thinking I had it all figured out to having nothing figured out. It's disappointing. I'll rebound. I always do. I'm Bobby.
Later,
Bobby

A Bobby X. Post
Well due to high demand, I figured I would post tonight. Actually, I will post more often now that people desire to know what truly awesome things I am doing.
Well, in my last post, I said I was going on a date. It didn't go well, but I did go on another one tonight. This girl was a lot better, not better looking, but overall just better. I think I liked her and would see her again but we'll see.
Work is going okay I suppose. I was able to travel to Oregon a couple of weeks ago. It was awesome since I got to have some good beers and really not do too much while I was out there. When you can save a few million by doing simple things, it feels good. With the economy the way it is, you do all you can. I wish people who had jobs would work harder to keep them. Eventually, it will catch up with them or at least I hope so.
The biggest thing on my mind is taxes. E-Filing is a rip-off. You can't just "e-file" with the government. You have to PAY someone to use some software. This year, I decided to use the infamous Turbo Tax. I hear it's so great and they just so happen to send me a CD in the mail. I pay about 70 bucks for this shit. Next year, I will just stick to the paper and pen. It will cost me 2 bucks to mail them in and wait 6 weeks. I am okay with that. With that being said, I can't wait for my money to come! I am either going to save it for a car or pay off some college loans. I hear people saying that having cash available is more important than paying off simple debt. I can always buy beer. That's seems like a good investment.
Oh, and other thing, I got braces on Friday. I actually got ceramic braces. Why? I think it is a good long term investment. I grind my teeth and with their current alignment, 20 years from now I may not have too much left of my bottom front teeth. So far it hasn't been bad. I just can't talk real good or eat. You know, those essential functions of life.
Other than that, not much is going on. This weekend is St. Patrick's Day weekend and I am going to see some pretty cool bands. I am sure I will be tired, hungover, and waiting for Monday to come around.
Daylight's Savings came out of nowhere this year. My roommate told me two days before that it was happening. I didn't have time to adjust my lifestyle. When you sleep and eat and stuff at a certain time, you don't like change. Getting up a hour early is really not cool. I have been getting up an extra hour already this week for kaizen. I'll get over it.
Today 60 degrees...tomorrow 30. I don't know what's going on but I'm ready for spring.
I saw slumdog millionare. It was okay. I didn't see what the big deal was. I got carded at the movies. Can you believe that? I wasn't too thrilled. Hey kid, I am 10 year older than you!
A study published this week indicated that gas prices are slowing increasing. Well no shit, I could have published this study. If you drive by a gas station, you could easily figure that out. Who wasted money for that study.
I hope this post satisfies until my next post. Hopefully, I will have some good stories to tell after this weekend.

Bobby

A Radom Update
So there was a lot of things that happened since I have posted. The biggest thing is that has happened locking myself out of my apt twice in the last month. The first time I was able to use a knife to get the door back open. I was just in a hurry and thought my roommate had his keys....nope. The second time...well let's just say it involved a 911 phone call, a cop, a fire truck, and being outside without jackets for about a hour at 3 am. Good times.
Other than that, there isn't much going on. Some days at work I have nothing to do and other days I have about 14 million things to do. I guess it all depends on what happens around me. I don't have a 9-5 job so why would I expect something different? At least I got to go to California a last week. It was pretty sweet. I don't know if I would be able to go ahead and live out there, but visiting is always nice.
So this Friday I am going out on a date. We'll see what happens. The last time I went out with some girl a few weeks ago I discovered that she was crazy. Crazy as in she had a bird. Crazy as in she was crazier than the average woman. I guess that's how we get averages. If things get out of hand, I will use the lemon law.

The New Year
Well, not much new is going on so far this year. The world has not fallen apart. The fighting in Gaza has not made gas go to $4 bucks a gallon. I can't complain. Obama is taking office and people aren't in panic mode yet.
Christmas/New Years this year was okay. I received a new fishing pole, ipod dock, and pizzaz pizza cooker. I took my sister to the museum of science and industry over break as well. I think she really enjoyed it. We stayed the night at my apt and the next day took the train. She liked all of that. I know she is only six so I hope she understood how cool it was to take the train, taxi, and bus all in one day. I know I never had the chance when I was young. For New Year's, my dad, my brother and I all went to KC for a gokart race. Imagine driving to KC on new years eve night. We didn't leave morris until about 7 pm because everyone had to work. The racing was good and we were competitive. That is all I could ask for. As for the person who took me out, I have his number and next time he will get what is coming to him.
I found out today that my secondary site for work is going to be in California. Yeah that's right...1 or 2 weeks out of every month will be spent in wine country. Sounds pretty rough! I was very excited when I found out the great news from my boss. Also, I am going to be doing more strategic things now instead of tactical activities. This will help my leadership and planning skills. I am so pumped right now! Work is really looking good. There are a lot of people less fortunate for me so I am going to make the most of what I have.
Everyone is overreacting to the weather. I mean come on...blizzard warning...sub-zero wind chill. We don't live in Florida. Winter is my favorite season. If I still lived I home, I would be outside the whole time, shoveling and snowmobiling. Instead, I will be going into work. I have faith that the tracker will get me there. I hope that everyone stays home so I can get to work without a problem.
The typical new years resolutions are now officially over. No working out...no reading more...no working less hours. Oh well. There is always next year...that is what cubs' fans have been saying for years.

Christmas/New Years this year was okay. I received a new fishing pole, ipod dock, and pizzaz pizza cooker. I took my sister to the museum of science and industry over break as well. I think she really enjoyed it. We stayed the night at my apt and the next day took the train. She liked all of that.
