My Kind of Store!

I had to drive into Oklahoma City the other day to get some gaffers tape from Guitar Center. Can you believe that Home Depot doesn't carry gaffers tape!?! Anyway, on my way back, I drove by this awesome sounding shop. I will have to go back and taste some jerky. By the looks of the windows, it looks like my kinda store. Go Meats!

Back to OC

Old Barn

The drive from Amarillo, TX to Edmond, OK is not fun, unless you can stop and take some pictures along the way.

Leaning Water Tower of Britten, OK

Old Barn just West of Clinton, OK

Lubbock

The Tracks

I have had a great weekend trip to the great city of Lubbock, in the Great State of Texas.

One night I got to go out and catch a Lubbock sunset, which is always good. Went out on 114 W. found a couple train cars. I know they aren't too exciting but it gave me a few subjects.

The Car

Then I found some cool looking plants. I have no idea what they are, but hey, I thought they looked cool.

The Silhouette

Then we took some friends on a tour of the good ole' LCU campus.

1st Thanksgiving Dinner

I got really lucky with my pot luck roommate. Not only is he a cool guy, but every Wednesday I get to eat dinner with his family. This week his grandma cooked a Thanksgiving Dinner.


We had a whole turkey, mashed taters, gravy, corn, green beans, some amazing stuffing, rolls, and some special yams. Don't worry, they weren't spiked. They only had the colored marshmallows to put on the sweet potatoes. It looked liked Lucky Charms marshmallows on them. So naturally, we called them Lucky Charm Yams.

The Bow Tie

Today I was at a loss on what to post. Overall it was a pretty bum morning. But this afternoon I received a package from my youngest brother. It was a birthday present. (I knew only because he told me it was coming). I had no idea what was going to pop out at me when I opened that large envelope. But I was pleasantly surprised! It was this kick butt groovy bow tie!

For those of you that don't know, one of my professors is trying to bring Bow Tie Thursdays to the OC campus. A day where all are encouraged to wear a bow tie, big or small, bright or dull, wear a bow tie! I had a non-tie bow tie that I had worn for the first few weeks. I bought the non-tie so that I could test out the look. I didn't want to commit to learning how to tie one if I was gonna look like a goofy clown. But I liked the way I looked (even though I didn't shop at Men's Warehouse). 

So today after I got in from all my classes and a very dull supper, I watched a video on how to tie a bow tie. Then I watched it a second time, and tried to tie mine along with the video.

Not bad for my first try eh?? I didn't think so either. But then I gave it a shot with out the video...

HA! You thought I was gonna end up with a spider tied around my neck didn't you! I think I will be good for wearing this hip puppy on Thursday. I'm gonna be the big boy on campus this week. 

Again thanks Bro for the sweet hip groovy bow tie!
