Today Is the First Day Of The Rest Of My Life.

Today being October 1, 2007 I have decided to start a blog. I suppose I am a bit late in the technology craze of blogging, but here I am. The main reason I am starting this is because of the new additions to our family in a few weeks. For those of you that don't know we are expecting twin boys. We are very excited and cannot wait to have an "instant family"

Yesterday I spent the entire day out at the Kansas Speedway for the LifeLock 400 Nextel Cup Chase Race. And I must say my wonderful Jeep Grand Cherokee Sponsored Race Team did a wonderful job of getting me to the race and back home. I just love how during every NASCAR interview they have to mention every sponsor of the car.

Now don't get me wrong I am not a huge race fan. I would much rather be hitting the little white ball around some nicely manicured golf course. But when the big NASCAR circus comes to your town and your company decides to entertain guests with a fun little tailgate I must attend.

I did have fun grilling up some burgers and brats for the guests. And the race was exciting for the laps that I saw. But if you pay attention to racing news you know what kind of cluster the actual race was yesterday. We got plenty of rain and plenty of standing around waiting. So I made the executive decision to get out as fast as I could. Which wasn't all that fast. Other people had decided to leave with me. I got back home just in time to watch the Chiefs upset my Chargers. When will just one of my sports teams do something good for once?

I suppose this is a fine enough start to my blogging life. I will hopefully keep it updated regularly. Thanks for reading.

Sorry to hear you didn't have that good of time at the race Joe. Rain delays suck, no matter what the sport is. Although, rain delays do make it possible to drink a 6 pack of beer between the 4th and 5th innings! :-)
