I recieved an award... 18 months ago???

Allison,

I am sorry. I just NOW saw your comment and link to the "Honest Scrap" award. I feel terrible. Since I'm sure that this award is long over, and I don't know of 10 other bloggers to send it to, and everyone has probably already done this and is thinking "Get with the times nerd", I guess I'll just post 10 things that no one knows about me... at least I think they don't.

1. My wife and I just recently packed all of our belongings into a UHaul and drove them 18+ hours from Round Rock, TX (just outside of Austin) to Kissimmee, FL (just outside of Orlando).

2. I was promoted from AAA Strength and Conditioning Intern, to Interim Minor League Strength & Conditioning Coordinator, to full-time Minor League Strength & Conditioning Coordinator in less than a year.

3. I have a Nike Swoosh shaped scar on the back of my head from where I fell on a rock and busted it open (my head, not the rock) when I was little. Some have told me that it looks like the Speedo logo, but that was when I was lifeguarding and the Speedo logos were everywhere.

4. I am making more money than I ever have in my life. Seeing what a small amount it actually is and considering I have worked as many as 4 jobs at once (for 2+ years), that's actually hilarious and sad at the same time.

5. I think farts, fart noises in particular, are absolutely hilarious.

6. I love to do stupid dances and have dance parties in my house with Tracy, but absolutely HATE going to clubs or dancing in public.

7. As sad as it may sound, I can relate just about everything that happens in my life to an episode of Seinfeld or Family Guy.

8. Sticking with the Seinfeld trend, I have the uncanny ability to control what Seinfeld episode comes on late night reruns... with my mind! It's really strange, but if a scene from an episode of Seinfeld pops into my head, that episode WILL be on later that night. Don't believe me? Ask Bryan Baca, one of our athletic trainers with the Astros. He can vouch for me. We were talking about this very subject, he didn't believe me, I was flipping through the channels later that night, saw that the episode we were talking about was indeed on, called him, and freaked him the fuck out!

9. I have an athletic shoe cycle. It goes something like this: I purchase a new pair of athletic shoes and wear them everyday with shorts, jeans, etc. Once they are worn in and a little faded, I promote them to gym shoes. This is the role that every shoe strives for. After they are extremely worn out (bottoms falling off, kinda stinky, etc) OR if another "nice" shoe is ready to be promoted, the previous gym shoes are demoted to work shoes. When I was doing carpentry work I would wear these newly demoted shoes because it didn't matter if they got dust, paint, sheet rock mud, or anything else on them, because they were work shoes. After they got too worn out (bottoms missing, laces broken in many places, extremely stinky) they were thrown in the trash.

10. I haven't worked out (aside from loading and unloading a 17ft UHaul) in 12 days and I am absolutely JONESING for a workout! I feel skinny, weak, and fat all at the same time. I really need to get back on my liftin and eatin schedule, it'll be alllllllll good!

Better late than never I guess? HA!
