freudian slip or not?

you are not going to believe this (or maybe you will), but today my wife let it slip her real feelings about me. here is how it went down(over the phone):

me: hey sweetie i know you can do better than me, and i know you know that.

wife: yeah

yes she did say that. even though she tried afterwards to say that she didn't mean it (trying to fix what minuscule ego that was dangling on for dear life). so i ask the 5 readers of this blog: can my wife do better? i ask for honesty, cause i already know (and live with) the answer everyday. good day or do i mean good night?

new years resolutions

another year down, and i find myself at the end of this year with having read fewer and fewer books than last. i love to read books, but since my surgery i have found that it take ever more out of me when i sit down and read. with each year since my surgery, my book list seems to get smaller and smaller, so i am trying to break this vicious cycle of illiteracy, and am making it a resolution to read more books this year. now with this in mind i am asking for faithful 5 that do read this blog if they would please give me some suggestions on some books that i would enjoy reading. a few facts about the anchor's reading habits are:

1. i read mainly (99.99%) read non fiction.

2. i love books that aren't more than a few hundred pages (300 is around my max, but if good enough i have read up to a 700 page book once, and it nearly finished this anchor off).

3. i am a product of the public school system so when in read, i like to have it as simple as possible (sad but true). picture books are good.

now as i close i ask that you include any and all book suggestions as this is going to be a years worth of reading (hopefully). no list is too long for this anchor. if you would like to know what i have read (or attempted to) lately, just ask, and i will be glad to list them. good night and good year (not the tire or az city though).

new tunes

new tunes from the 80's to dance to courtesy of the anchor. happy new year to you, and now on to the new resolutions.

my (possible) new life

i got off the phone with amy a little while ago, and she brought something up that got the wheels in my head spinning round and round. she asked me about some email she got regarding a new dating application for facebook that was addressed to me. she was under the impression that yours truly was putting himself back on the market after 8 years of married bliss (and couple years of being tied down as a boyfriend). after i looked at the email & informed her that it was a junk mail trying to get you to open and (more than likely get a virus) view for some junk. after i put the phone down i started to ponder what life would be like if i was back on the market. scary thought i know, but don't worry cause this anchor is anchored down (at least for now) with the old ball and chain. my first thought was are dates still $5.00 or less? are the single ladies ready for this tiger (and im not talking woods) to be back on the prowl? after a quick a look in the mirror, reality sunk in, and yeah im pretty sure they aren't ready for that. my thoughts also drifted to how would i pick this young lady up and where would we go afterwards (knowing that if i was on the market amy would have the house and cars)? my mind drifted to what seems like another lifetime, when me and amy would go out on dates. since having kids, our dating life is all but dead i'm sorry to say, but our duties as parents has taken precedence over the inner teenager in us. my last thoughts on the subject is that i know i currently have the only one i ever would like to take out on town, and that's amy. our first date is still probably the first date i went on that i didn't feel like a complete idiot afterwards (too many bad dates to list). it was less than $5.00, and was a ton of fun (at least for me). i'm going to end this post before i get too sappy, and i lose one of the five readers to this blog (can't have that now). i promise this, if this stud muffin becomes datable i will send out a warning signal (like the bat signal) ahead of time as a warning to all you single ladies.

x-mas tunes

at the last minute i finally got some of my favorites x-mas tunes done in one of my favorite styles. the last 2 are picks from each of my kids. it is there favorite x-mas songs. enjoy the seasonal tunes for the quick moment they are here. good night..

merry x-mas

just in time for the holidays, the anchor would like to take this opportunity to say...........

the end?

there's been a sense of "the end is near" with this blog since i first started using this forum to voice some of my many opinions, oh so many months ago. with that same sense of "the end is near" in mind i am writing this post tonight. i am wanting to know of the 5 readers out there who take time out of your busy schedule to partake in a little give and take with me on this blog, would like me to carry on with this blog? the reason i say that, is that i have been taking stock of my life (as meager as it is), and wondering if this outlet is something that helping me get things off my chest, or is just another way for me to waste time? so i leave this to a vote to the public, who out there would like to keep reading this blog? or those who think that they, and myself are wasting too much of their time with this blog? for me, i am indifferent to it, i do love writing, and reading those comments that are made about the posts, but at the same time, are i am always wondering if there really is anyone out there who cares about my thoughts and opinions? just the narcissus in me coming out. with that being said, please vote and let me know with your comments what you think. the phone line are now open america, go and vote for your favorite blog. good night (maybe forever).
