MEMPHIS MONDAY

Sparks Of Insanity By Vinny "Bond" Marini Monday, October 09, 2006

Welcome To THE COUCH...Sit on Down and Get Comfy..


Howdy y'all....

Well.. I am in Memphis and had my first day at work.

The drive went well. 10 hours on Saturday and 6 yesterday.


First off...As Dixie let you all know (Thank you POOKIE!), God touched Matt at impact and he is absolutely fine.

Sore, but fine enough to be able to go to classes today. I am amazed at the reality of it all.

Now, when I get home, I can kill him for destroying a car before I even had a chancve to write the check! LOL ...kidding...

It was really his money anyway, as he had paid $1,100.00 to get the Infinity fixed and we had borrowed about $400.00 from him over the last few months.



My first day went well, though I did not have a computer until the end of the day and - technically - it is not mine yet...it is my bosses...but I have taken it over.


I forgot to email myself my little COUCH dividers, so don't look for them here!


OK..so I don't know TV...CBS cancelled SMITH...LOL and I loved the show!


I don't have time energy - sorry folks - to respond to all the comments you left on Friday's two postings..so:


MAN YOU ARE ALL SO WONDERFUL...

The prayers and well wished and thoughts really choked me up. I truly thank you all.


I will be changing hotels tomorrow. The one I am in (Hampton Inn) is nice if you are here for a day or two. But for two weeks...it is so totally not equipped. There are absolutely no drawers at all...and the closet is about 1.5 feet deep. I can't fit all my clothes in it .... ARG

I found a Staybridge Suites that is actually less money (good corporate citizen that I am)...so, will be moving tomorrow.


I have to begin lookng for an apartment tomorrow and I am real excited that I will be meeting Dixie and her Hunnybunny real soon...

OK..so I am here... I am now a Mephisian...yeah I am almost positive what they call us.. and last night I went to a place to get some dinner and began the most important part of any move...

I got a bartenders name!!!!!!

Thanks for sitting on THE COUCH, hope you enjoyed your stay.

  12. did i mention the tigers won :) :) :)

    Still in my prayers Bond. Aren't you starting to get to old for all this changing stuff. LOL

     
  13. Hey y'all... Thanks for the welcomes...

    Ummm Damm ... difference between a team that wins a lot and a team that hardly ever wins is that the later team's fans gloat over and over and fans of teams that win all the time, just stay silent when we win...

    Of course, we did not win this year, and wish congratulations to teams that did ... but the gloating... ummm... not the way a winner acts... LOL...life lesson for ya Damm Duck...

     
  14. Vinny,

    I am so glad that you made it safe to Memphis. I can hardly wait to meet you.

    Everyone was asking about you yesterday and I thought that I would just take it upon myself to let them know. You know, my true southern hospitatlity just had to shine. Even though we are a few hours a part, I wanted you to feel very welcome here in the South.

    Oh, and now your are a MEMPHIAN! WOOOOOOO

    I am also looking for you a book on "How to speak true Southern" LMOO ;-) I've got to be able to understand you better.. LMOO

    HUGS, GROPES & SMOOCHES!!!!
