Gas Shortage

As some of you may or may not know there is a shortage of gas in Atlanta. I think maybe even through out the south. This has been going on for a week or two know, I think? Regardless though it sucks. People are running out of gas, lines are crazy long, fight at the pump, high gas prices, ETC.

Thankfully I moved close to the city a couple months ago and my work, most of my friends and most of the places I go are pretty much in a 5 - 10 mile radius. Which means that my use of gas is much lower than it used to be.


So I have a half a tank but decided to be on the safe side i should get some gas today or tomorrow. After I got done with my run this morning Terri sent me a text that one of the gas stations down the room has gas. This is important because most gas stations do not have any gas. I actually saw about 12 gas stations yesterday that didn't have gas. So I headed over to the gas station and waited in line for 20 minutes to pay to $20.00 cash limit at this station for gas.
Im at 3/4 a tank know and hope that will last me 2 weeks.

What's New

Well it's been awhile since my last post. Nothing much is going on with me right now. Been working ALOT!

Since my move I have found a new love....Whole Foods! I dont recall ever shopping at one before. But have made numerous stops to the one on Ponce, which is almost next door to me! That place rocks. They make Pizza, have great dessert, good selection of meats, the list goes on and one.

Im glad that it's finally football season. JB, Mac and myself are going to spend the entire day Saturday Eating, Drinking and Watchin Football. Hoping that we can catch the Ducks game at 3:30 and see them trounce Purdue. Then the big one...USC vs OSU. Should be fun!

My Fantasy team is also off to a great start. Got a W in week one and all of my guys put up some numbers. Although I think I think a big reason I won was that Tom Brady was injured which messed up Rye Rye's team. O well, a win is a win.

The other weekend had a wine dinner part a Terri's. Drank ALOT of wine and had a blast. Still trying to figure out why I was not hung over.......Below is a pic of us acting stupid!

Commute

So I've been living at my new apt for two weeks or so and am loving the commute. It takes me about 18 minutes or so round trip! It used to take me 20 - 25 one way. I know that is not big deal for most Atlanta commuters, but I'm pretty stoked about it.

Video of the Week

What's up people! Check out the video below. The name of the band is Lacrimas Profundere the name of the song is Again It's Over.

Moving Day!

Well it's official......I've moved out of Smyrna! On Saturday I moved my things out of my small studio at Post Spring in Smyrna. I spent three good years in my little studio. But it was time to get the hell out of Smyrna. I'm now living in the Virginia Highlands in a nice two bedroom apartment with my buddy Mac. I'm really looking forward to having a much shorter drive to work.

It's Has Officially Begun

So last night was officially the start to the 2008 -2009 NFL Season with the Hall of Fame Game Preseason Opener. And what better way to start it off then by having the Washington Redskins paly in the game. Their opponent, the Indianapolis Colts. I was super stoked to watch the game and see what kind of talent we might have making the team this year. Unfortunetly since I have worked two weeks straight and am tired as hell I went to sleep soon after the first quarter, lame...I know.

First thing I did Monday morning was check ESPN.Com to see who won and to see if one particular Redskin's player played, and if so how well he did. The player was rookie quarterback Colt Brennan, formerly known as The University of Colt Brennan, now known as The District of Colt Brennan. I was very pleased to see that he put together quite a game (9/10, 123 yds, 2 tds). Not sure if there will be any contreversy in the distrcit anytime soon though because starter Jason "Chunky Soup" Campbell had a pretty good game himself in limited action (5/5, 61 yds, 1 td).

More importantly the Redskins won. Granted it is preseason and mostly backups played the whole game for both teams and Peyton Manning didn't event play. But a win is a win to any fan!

Sauceness

As some of you know I'm a condiment lover. Most of the time I base what I going to eat based off of the condiment I feel like eating. That said I was looking through the condiments the week a Kroger to see if anything jumped out at me. Then I say a interesting selection called Bronco Bob's Roasted Mango Chipotle Sauce. Ever since I've put it on just about everything....Chicken, Salmon, Pork & Sandwiches. This stuff is pretty awesome, I suggest picking yourself up a bottle.
