Ruben and I were so lazy during the final week of 2011. We spent most of it curled up on the couch with the dogs, watching episodes of ‘Community’ on Hulu. If you haven’t seen that show, watch it. My friend Catherine got us hooked on it. Anyway, we attended one final holiday event at Mike and Tom’s place along with Brian and Chris. It was a nice, relaxing evening spent with friends. A few days later, Ruben and I drove down to Houston to count down the final seconds of 2011 with Liz, Vann, Elsa, and Travis. Let’s hope 2012 is a much better year for us all.
February 6, 2011 This entry will cover a few events Ruben I took part in over the past few weeks. The fun began on a cold evening in John and Paul’s backyard as we joined them and a few of their friends for laughs and drinks around a warm fire. A week or so later, [...]
August 14, 2010 Saturday evening, Glenn and I attended Chris and Matt’s wedding reception. I wish Ruben could have been there but he was home visiting family. Chris and Matt are an unforgettable couple. It’s impossible to think of one without thinking of the other. They share their faith, an enthusiasm for helping others and [...]

May 22, 2010 The guy pictured above with Ruben is my friend, Chris. We grew up in the same small town, but never interacted with each other until our paths crossed in Aggieland. Early Saturday morning Ruben and I accompanied Chris to Huntsville State Park for a mountain biking excursion. This beautiful, 2,000+ acre park [...]
February 7, 2010 The 44th Super Bowl became the most watched televised event in American broadcast history. 106 million people watched the New Orleans Saints defeat the Colts and we were among that viewership. We attended a low-key Super Bowl party at Chris and Brian’s place. Watching the game was just an excuse to eat [...]
July 31, 2009
Ruben and I joined a group of friends at Padraic and Mark’s home to celebrate Mark’s birthday. That night, we also celebrated David’s birthday (He’s James’ BF). We had a great time that evening relaxing with friends and enjoying lots of laughs.
July 4, 2009 This year, Ruben and I decided to celebrate the 4th with friends at the George Bush Presidential Library and Museum. Once again, Brian was zipping around the library campus (on his Segway) doing his part to make sure the festivities that day went as planned. The celebration began with a flyover of [...]
