That's So....BORING!!
Legions of fans have been begging for an update, but I'm burned out on blogging right now, so I'll do it - but I won't put any heart into it. Since lists require little explanation I'll use one of those to tell all about what you've missed because I haven't updated "JBlog".
- I was on the jumbo tron at Jacobs Field
- The Indians had the most disappointing final week imaginable. I cried for weeks.
- I actually called up Wells Fargo to get pre-approved. We don't know if we'll stick with them or not
- Kelly and I are HIGHLY considering buying a new house in Brunswick Hills. We are meeting with a sales guy about stuff on Friday night.
- I met with the gastro doctor guy again today and it looks like I will have an endoscopy with a balloon which will rip apart my Schlotzky's Ring. It is supposed to heal in it's expanded state and give more room for food to fit into the stomach. Hopefully that will mean far less "choking" like I seem to do every month.
- How does a bite of rib meat cost almost $2500? The best part of my ER bill was the "Level 4 ED Diagnosis". HA! $800. Do you know what that bill is referring to? An ER doctor stood about 6 feet away from me and asked the following questions: What were you eating? Is it stuck? So, you can't even swallow water? Those three questions (total of 1 minute and 30 seconds) cost $800. I'm so glad we have insurance so all I have to do is pay the co-pay.
- I have worked out 3 times in the past 3 weeks, which is pathetic.
- I lost/had stolen my Creative Zen player (ipod looking thingy). Not only was that 60 GB of music, but it had my Bally's card attached to it, so now I have to pay the $10 fine to get a new Bally's card.
- The Sextons and the Morans went camping at East Harbor last weekend. It was a good, relaxing time (except when Amy "drowned in the lake", I'll explain more if you ask). The chicken kabobs and the tin-foil dinners I made were delicious!
- Lastly, I found some of those candy cigarettes and I've been eating them by the handful ever since.

Where the HECK do I start?
"I was on the jumbo tron at Jacobs Field"
Were you wearing a dark (black, blue, grey) faded baseball hat, forwards? If so, you may have been on TV too.
"I actually called up Wells Fargo to get pre-approved. "
We're getting pre-approval online from Third Federal.
"I met with the gastro doctor guy again today and it looks like I will have an endoscopy with a balloon which will rip apart my Schlotzky's Ring."
What to ask... what to ask?!?
"Hopefully that will mean far less "choking" like I seem to do every month."
The Indians choked. And your mom goes to college.
"How does a bite of rib meat cost almost $2500?"
It seems outrageous, and yet, doctors go through so much and have to know so much before they're even allowed to practice... Payback?
"I'm so glad we have insurance so all I have to do is pay the co-pay."
You better not be making MY copays go up.
"...but it had my Bally's card attached to it, so now I have to pay the $10 fine to get a new Bally's card."
How do you attach a Bally's card to an mp3 player, and is it a common practice? Is it supposed to be cool or something?
"(except when Amy "drowned in the lake", I'll explain more if you ask)"
Ok, I'll bite.
"Lastly, I found some of those candy cigarettes and I've been eating them by the handful ever since."
Just where exactly did you find them?

Oh man, there's so many questions!
Okay, I WAS wearing a dark faded baseball hat forwards at the time. But I was in a yellow Indians shirt, so that should have stuck out more.
Yes, the same guy that has a deli put some ring in my throat.
I actually have a leather case around my mp3 player and I usually slide my card into the case as well (I don't usually see others doing that).
Amy ran off without anybody knowing where she went EXACTLY. So, when we looked where we assumed she was and she wasn't standing at the edge of the dingy pond/lake, we figured she either fell in and was swallowed up or some bandit stole her and would ransom her later. It's odd how quickly your mind can jump to conclusions when you don't know what's really going on.
Candy cigarettes might be gone by now. I bought 8 boxes of them from the halloween store in the old Danny Boy's at Columbia and Lorain.

when did you invite me to this party of yours? well, it doesn't really matter b/c halloween is not something that I support in any way shape or form...no matter how much fun i'll miss :(
Kelly,
the way Sammon seems to be obsessed with you, I bet he wrote it on your car windshield in the early morning fog. Most of the new mom's don't have so many pictures of their kids as he seems to have of you...

Yes, the only two clear options, as Jason explained, were that my wife was stolen by bandits or dead. This is why, when i discovered that she was completely fine, I responded by glaring at her and yelling, completely relieved to know she was safe.
Hmm, yellow shirt... yellow shirt... Nope. If I remember correctly, the person that I assumed was you on tv just had a head. That's it. No body. You see, assumed Jason (head only) was on the right side of the TV screen, with the real focus on a few other people.
Well, once again, that could possibly have been me on the JumboTron. The focus was on two girls with a sign of some sort. When I noticed the camera on them I naturally jumped around behind them. So, it is quite possible for me to have been the "head only" behind "a few other people".
okay, jason, there is such thing as brunswick hills? and you really met with a gastro doctor, so you can eat more????? i don't get it. lastly, i would REALLY like to hear about amy's drowning, especially since amy hasn't mentioned even a hint of this on her blog, in fact, she hasn't mentioned camping at all...hmmmm....please do fill us in....
okay, so now i read the comments. oops, i guess i should read comments before i comment. amy didn't drown. great. also, sammon, i can't give you any ideas about making a picture on which kelmo sucks, b/c i just can't support that kindof meanness, but if you would like to make a picture that somehow depicts how in love you are with her, well, i would support such an image...
So much going on in your life! Did Lisa help you out with your questions? I will be praying for the Lord to give you CLEAR direction!! I am excited for you guys, even though you will have to live the winter in the expensive heat house! I am jealous too. Lord we want a house of our own....PLEASE?? Well hopefully we will have some adventure to tell of our camping trip! BYE!!
Oh yeah I need the power inverter back by...ummm tommorow!

Bek, the gastro doctor was because I choke on food ALL OF THE TIME. It is below my windpipe, so I can still breath, but it is still non-life-threatening choking that I have very frequently. The doctor says he can help that problem out.
Donna, the Continuum Power Inverting Transfunctioner is sitting on our kitchen table. I will see what we can do about getting it back to you.

Uh, I would guess that even a Christian could object to the pseudo-christian nature of halloween. It kind of conflicts with the whole “I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father but by me." thing.
I just found you and had to respond in the whole praying for dead people issue...a biblical perspective...there is one and only one way to go to heaven "And this is the testimony; God has given us eternal life, and this life is his Son. He who has the Son has eternal life; he who does not have the Son does not have life." 1 John 5:11-12
Essentially, your choice to accept or reject Jesus as Lord and Savior determines your eternal destiny. After you die...that choice stands.

I agree with the anonymous poster. I'm so torn over how to approach the matter. I disagree with the holiday. If I had my way the holiday would disappear. However, I also think it's great fun to give candy to the kids and even plan out a fun costume once in a while. Besides Halloween there's no standard opportunity for everybody to play dress-up and give out candy to kids.
I wish I didn't know about the pagan witchcraft side of Halloween so I could just easily participate. Ignorance is bliss, I suppose.

I suppose it COULD be all a matter of choice as a parent for you and your children how Halloween is portrayed. No witches. No ghosts. No evil. No scariness. Just fun costumes and candy.
