Here I be...

Okay kids, your prayers are answered: here is the official update to the Scott Blog, as promised! Huzzah and such! Okay, settle down now. Stop crying, you.

I'm in a weird mood right now. I have been working crazy hours this week in order to work a very short day Friday. Consequently, I will work 4 hours at most before they kick me out in order to avoid overtime. "Scott, how can you make up your schedule," you may ask? Well, I got promoted about a month ago, thank you for asking. To Accounting, no less, which would amuse anyone who knows of my feelings about math. So the base schedule is 9-5 M-F, but I'm able to do pretty much whatever I want as long as I get things done. Point: I should be a little more open socially, if any of you are interested.

Let's see, what else? I have moved since December to a townhome pretty much equidistant from both our parents' houses, which is pretty nice. I have also taken up golf since Matt got married in May, and we played as part of his bachelor party. To those of you who are excited to read this, bear in mind that I'm really not very good; my best game is still 106. That's not like bowling,bowling; btw, you should have very low if not negative numbers when playing golf.

My social circle has changed a little. My wife is still working three 12-hour days per week, but added to that as of July is nursing school out at GCC. So she is a very busy lady, while all I have right now is work. I will be picking up some extra work helping out with some web design, but it's mostly to take up time more than anything. I still have a lot of books I haven't read and there are always video games to play and replay, but I tend to get bored easily at this stage in my life.

Travis and Josh have moved away, and Andrew is back in Flagstaff, although at least he is only 3 hours away. I may even go see him this weekend; we'll see. Of the two Matts, the big one is married and works the late shift (for now) so I don't see him much. The little one lives near my work, but far from my home, so usually when he wants to get together I don't feel like driving 35 minutes or so. I feel bad for this, of course, especially since my friend Chris also lives out that way, so that's two people I rarely see (although I occasionally see Chris at work). I actually have seen Kayce once this year, which is amazing. Katrina has moved home (as far as I'm concerned), and brought her husband Danny with her. Soon after she had her daughter, Alice, who is pretty much the cutest thing ever. Like most people, I don't get to see them enough.

My little sister turns 16 this year, which means she starts dating this year. High school boys everywhere: I have guns, and they are loaded. My bro graduates this year, which is awesome. I had hoped to be graduating from college this coming spring, but I guess it isn't to be. My new goal is to find a job that will pay for my school like the hospital is paying for Abigail's. Corporate Marriotts offer tuition reimbursement, unfortunately mine is a franchise, so no dice there.

Ok, so I haven't blogged in a while so I'm rambling a bit. That and I'm trying to play golf while doing this and hang out with Matt. So I'm going to call it a night, but if I missed anything please let me know. Remember, this is still not my primary form of communication, so E-mail and phone remain the best way to find me, but I check MySpace and Facebook more now, so yeah.

Peace out, and remember to keep it real!

Let's clear some things up here...

First off, this may surprise you but yes, I'm still alive. I admit, I have been horrible at communicating with you both in and out of MySpace with only a couple of exceptions, and that's mostly because I either live with you or because I work with you. I do have my reasons, though.

I have been busy, I have been lazy, and I have been tired of how trendy and annoying MySpace can be. It reminds me of high school, which is usually not a good sign. However, I have been slacking off and I apologize. So do us both a favor, MySpace friends, and don't judge our real-world relationship by how often I post (or rather don't post) here. Another new blog should be coming this weekend, and I will update my page, but my phone is on a good majority of the time and still receives calls and texts just fine. So if I don't comment on your pictures or your new background, don't assume I hate you and send me messages asking (and no, I'm not just talking about you, sir).

I promise you, if you're on my friends list, chances are I like you, and if you're not completely sure and I don't answer your MySpace message, call me. If you don't know the number, then we probably weren't too close to begin with, so I wouldn't worry about it. :)

With Warmest Regards,~Scott
