• We're expecting a baby by mid December!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's right ladies and gentlemen. The prophecy of the one to bring balance to the force will arrive in mid December (peace to my Star Wars fans). Courtney and I are extremely excited about the arrival of our brand new child. We're especially greatful to God because the doctors told us we had a slim to none chance to even conceive...as my friend "The Diva" says "Sometimes...those doctors just don't know what they're talkin' about"

Right now the Court is 3 months and a little over 2 weeks preggos, and we're hoping to find out the sex of our child shortly, and I'll definately keep you updated as the journey to create our child continues...

Enterprise Rental Car

On a much lighter note, I am officially convinced that one of the worse jobs in America is to be a rental agent for Enterprise rental car on a Friday evening.

I give props to those agents who still have on business attire a 7pm on a Friday evening, while having to apologetically and politely tell 22 year old customers "Sorry, but we do not carry Phatoms, but we do have G6s and Grand Prixs available..."

The business that these agents have to put up with is ridiculous...I know, because I used to be one of those 22-24 yr olds who took advantage of Enterprise's gracious hosiptality, as they would rent to me w/o charging me the "under 25 hidden tax" in which there competitors would happily charge me. I also don't understand why Enterprise continues to pick people up in the cars that they've rented. That's another verbal onslaught ready to happen...not a good look.

I rambled on continuously about this to say Props & Stunts to all the employees at Enterprise Rental Car. Your tolerance level is on another level that I'll never comprehend...

Lastly, this week marks my 3 year anniversary of blogging...so later this week I will be posting my top 100 things I learned in the past year...
