Even though the weather is hot, life is good
Okay, let's face it. I've got a pretty good life. My mom is wonderful, my dad is funny (when not in Franzia coma), my brothers are awesome boys (though clearly still boys), my fiancee is pretty darn groovy, and the family I'm about to be a part of freakin' rocks! (No pun intended.)My future sister-in-law Penny loves the baseball and goes shopping with me, my other future sister-in-lawJen always makes you feel like she is really listening to you (even when you know you are being stupid), Dorrance plays a mean cribbage game, and DK and Cathy make me feel really special. Not in the special special way, if you know what I mean. But special in a "Wow, you aren't totally useless. In fact, quite lovely. Good job" sort of way.
But there is a problem: I'm a whiner.
It is hands down, in my humble opinion, my very worst flaw. I have several major flaws, actually. Among them are: my inability to move objects from the floor to places where they belong, like closets; my desire to analyze every little thing; my need to poke at my belly fat and say "why oh why" when my I-hate-the-gym-and-never-go ass knows perfectly well why there is that roll; and my inability to park a car without hitting a pole or a really expensive car.
But my whining is the worst by far. Because I whine and whine and rarely do anything to make the situation better. It just feels so good to whine, you know? A guilty pleasure like Cherry Garcia ice cream or playing hookey from work. I can complain and then feel magically better without investing any real effort! Amazing, yes?
So I've decided I should stop doing this. I have lovely people in my life, and if I don't like something, I should at least try to change it.
Well, we'll see how long this lasts.
God, I hate making changes in my life.
P.S. I just realized I didn't mention the Buddha!!! Okay, a picture of Her Loveliness:

Haha, I love that you finished (well, nearly -- then you added the pic of Bailey, which btw is super cute and haha, I know that couch!) with a whine!
Laurie is a firm believer that complaining burns a lot of calories, so maybe you should actually whine more! Although your whole imaginary belly roll thing is quite ridiculous.
I think it's funny you're marrying into a family of people who all pride themselves on their mad driving skills. Luckily, we still love my mom so you'll be OK.
i'm a whiner too jen, don't worry. we can whine together once you and jefe get married. actually, i think we do that when we're together now. anyway, it is always good times when i am with you, whining or not.
bailey is super cute in that pic.

Nano Superlattice Technology Inc. (OTCBB Symbol: NSLT) is a nanotechnology company engaged in the coating of tools and components with nano structured PVD coatings for high-tech industries.
Nano utilizes Arc Bond Sputtering and Superlattice technology to apply multi-layers of super-hard elemental coatings on an array of precision products to achieve a variety of physical properties. The application of the coating on industrial products is designed to change their physical properties, improving a product's durability, resistance, chemical and physical characteristics as well as performance. Nano's super-hard alloy coating materials were especially developed for printed circuit board drills in response to special market requirements
The cutting of circuit boards causes severe wear on the cutting edge of drills and routers. With the increased miniaturization of personal electronics devices the dimensions of holes and cut aways are currently less than 0.2 mm. Nano coats tools with an ultra thin coating (only a few nanometers in thickness) of nitrides which can have a hardness of up to half that of diamond. This has proven to increase tool life by almost ten times. Nano plans to continue research and development into these techniques due to the vast application range for this type of nanotechnology
We believe that Nano is a company on the move. With today�s steady move towards miniaturization we feel that Nano is a company with the right product at the right time. It is our opinion that an investment in Nano will produce great returns for our readers.
