Life's too short, to be a bachelor.



My family has gone to Bear Lake and left me home, to bring home the bacon. There coming home today, about the time I'm going to my second job.

I complain a lot about not having any guys to hang out with, because Matt works different hours than me and Justin has moved in with his inlaws. Justin spends all his time with his wife, anyway (as he should). When Shar gets together with Amy and Michelle, I kind of vanish into the family room, so as not to break up the girl talk.

As bad as that may sound, it's not half as bad as putting in a sixteen hours at two jobs, and coming home to a empty house. I must be a wimp, because I can't handle it.

Next week end is the company trip, to lagoon (the local amusement park) were you might think that I could get my "man" on. They got a new, scary ride/roller coaster that could test me. But then again, the wildest ride my wife likes is rattle snake rapids (the giant inner tube ride, were you ride down a man made river). I proved that I can go on rides, the year that I got out of high school and worked at lagoon, so there is no real reason to drag out my bravado.

The fun was before the park opened. When the old, wooden, roller coaster, was greased, the grease would slow down the coaster, until it was broke in. So on grease day, they would go through the park and look for volunteers who would be willing too, as the coaster slowed down around the corner/hill, get out and push . Great fun.

I know that you will all just be waiting, with bated breath, to hear how it goes. I will warn you that it will be anti climatic. That's all right with me. It's sure beats being a bachelor.

Love ya all, Boyd
