F**king Snow
Ok, so it has now been a day since we got this freaking blizzard from out of no where and I still don't have the damn driveway scooped out, my little sister is stuck in a different city and she has to work tonight so i have to dig us out so we can go and get her and then bring her back, probably to just recieve more snow.....oh, yeah and there is just one problem with all this snow.......I have nowhere to put it.......because of the last snow we have freaking walls around our drive and you have to throw it up and over and hope you aren't filling up the neighbors drive with your snow, but who the hell knows if that is happening because you can barely see their house........but i guess that is a good thing since there are like thirty mile an hour winds, but you can't feel them when you are scooping because you have built a mini fort around your house with all the snow......but you can see the winds when you throw a scoop over your wall you have built and half of it comes back......it just seems like a never ending battle and shit like this almost never happens.......i guess it is just natures way of saying "screw you for moving to texas for so long.......now that you are back here is a ton of the thing you hate the most....SNOW"........I guess i am just getting cought up on all the scooping of snow i should have done for the past four years all put together into one.......I HATE SNOW!!!!!!!
oh and in the day and a half that i have been scooping on and off i am about two thirds done.......

The Art of Scooping Snow
For those of you that do not live where it snows, concider yourself lucky, because I hate....i mean despise snow so much.........I really wish i still lived in Texas because I loved it so much there......
For those of you who do live where it snows you are probably smart enough to have a snow blower, especially if you have a large driveway.........my parents used to have a snow blower which was very smart because we have a huge driveway.............my dad used to sell radient barrier and would barder(sp?) with people so that they could get it in their house......we would get cows pigs and other things, but one year we got a snow blower.........but not just any snow blower, but the mother of all snow blowers....it was a two stage with like eight gears and an inclosed place where you could ride behind it.........this thing was so sweet and could get our drive done in like twenty min. Anyway, the year after we got that i made a killing in doing other people's drives, but the year after that my dad decides to just sell it and get a scoop............yep, just one scoop.......now i will tell you how much this sucks!!!!!
When you start scooping you look at the task ahead and realize you got a foot and a half last night and it is not just snow, but rain that you had got before that so it is really heavy snow......so you start out thinking that this will only take two hours like normal and then you realize...oh shit.....this sucks so much, so you can't just push it off to the side and then throw it up because you have so much of it...........now you have to come up with a new tecnique.........this wonderfull new tecnique is a little something i like to call the scoop and heave..........this is where you scoop about a square foot, because this is all your scoop will hold, and throw it as far as you can because if you don't get it far enough you will have to scoop the same snow twice.......and sometimes you will run out of room to put the snow so you will end up throwing it up till the snow gets about sholder high..........anyway, this is the tecnique i used today and then i got to the end of the drive where the plows have come by twice already, so of course the snow there is almost waist high already so it takes about three scoops to get to the cement..........
Anyway needless to say it took me about four hours today to get a clean drive and sidewalks which is pretty much twice as long as it normally takes me on a light snow........I hate snow and especially my dad since he is too cheap to get a freaking snow blower, or at least another scoop so he can help, but he is pretty much to lazy to do anything.....but that is another story.......so anyway, i want to move south........hate snow and scooping.......anyway this is the end of my little rant.........

LAN Party
Ok, so one of my friends that is in the Navy is back for a while so we decided to all get together and have a Halo Lan Party like we used to all the time. It was great seeing a lot of people that I had not seen for a long time and hope to do it all again on a regular basis like we used to. But anyway the reason I am writing this is to post the things I have learned from this experience since it is not online and there is no lag at all..........
1. I am an average player- I learned this because some of my friends are like legit 44's online in halo2 and showed me up every once in a while.
2. I transform from an average player to freaking amazing when I play with really good people- I learned this one when me and Absolute Power teamed up and took on a bunch of good players and demolished them with me getting a lot of the kills. For the most part he got the most kills, but we were always positive by at least 10 when all was said and done. For some reason when I play with a team that is in good communication and move as a team I turn into this halo God of some sorts. Anyway we owned a lot. And my final lesson I learned........
3. I SUCK AT HALO ONE.........to be quite honest, I have no idea how i can be so much better than most of the people at the lan party and then go play halo one and get owned like a newb.......I mean I got demolished.....anyway needless to say it was a very humbleing experience, but on the plus side of things all the guys I owned at halo 2 could get a little payback when we played halo 1. I finally kinda figured halo 1 out after a while once i remembered that you could launch nades across the map and the pistol is the power weapon. but for the most part i was just bait for the rest of my team to go on and win.....
over all I had a great time and can't wait till next year because I am thinking of hitting up the 2o2p lan party, which i know will be a blast.....anyway now my eyeballs heart from playing halo all day so i am going to bed........
