Today was, in a word, long. Since Goose is out of town for his family emergency, I had extra work to do around the office today, plus I had a remote tonight at Uno Chicago Grill. It was dead but I found out that Van's remote was dead as well so I didn't feel too bad about it. I don't know what's up with Snider: They have an awesome football team but can't get their peeps to support them by simply eating dinner. It's crazy.

As I mentioned earlier, Goose's family emergency is one that kindda makes you think. All too often we tend to take our loved ones for granted. I, too, have been guilty of this many times. I was reminded of just how much my family means to me when my step dad had that Hodgkin's Disease scare not too long ago. Goose's situation is just another reminder of how precious life is and how we shouldn't take it for granted. Treat everyday as if it were a gift from God (which it is) and live it to the fullest. And have no regrets.

Tonght at Uno's was really cool even though the students and fans really didn't turn out. I had a good time hanging out with Jack Hammer (mad props to him for letting us use some of his equipment tonight!) and just enjoying the nice weather outside tonight. Mandie came by with her grandmother and "tame Nikki" (long story LOL). It was really cool to see Mandie and to meet her grandmother and Nikki, although Mandie was a bit higher on the scale (hehe). Her grandmother is really cool, I enjoyed talking to her.

Honestly, tonight showed me a lot.

I'm going to bed. Tomorrow promises to be just as busy as today was.
