It was 30 years ago today

That S was born in, of all places, Denton TX!

Anyway, I spent all day yesterday in Lufkin, TX. S was supposed to come with me but they called him into work on his day off. Whatever, we need the $, that's for sure. So I picked up a nice rental car, a silver Impala, and shoved off so I could work the Women's Lifestyle Expo. I can't believe I got pulled over by a state trooper!!! And guess what for (this is just the perfect reason to pull over a fellow cop, I swear): I was driving too slow in the left lane. Give me a break. I got out of the car, holding out my credentials so he could see immediately that I was a cop, and I said, literally and truly flabbergasted, "What did I do???" He wrote me out a warning, which means absolutely nothing and which I thought was a strange thing to take the time to do. I immediately called my Sgt. to tattle-tale on myself. Later when I told Mudflap he wondered if the trooper pulled me over b/c I was driving a rental car. (We had learned in the academy that rental cars on major interstates are suspect b/c they are frequently used by drug runners.)

I am so tired of eating. I had a $45 per diem to spend yesterday and man, it is HARD to eat $45 worth of food in one day! I got kolaches and donuts and juice for breakfast: $5.50. Lunch was Chinese w/appetizer and drink: $7+. For dinner I picked up a large supreme pizza and 2-liter of Diet Pepsi just b/c I could: $20. Then at the Lufkin Expo my booth was right across from the Coca-cola girls and they loaded me up with Sprite and Orangeaid and this new Diet Coke that has vitamins & minerals in it. Also everyone had candy and cookies and other snacks to give away. I brought home a lot of these leftovers but I still don't think any of my pants fit anymore. Fortunately when I got home around 9:30 pm S was there with Mano and Mano helped himself to some of the pizza.

This a.m. I gave S his remaining b-day presents: a Rocky Balboa t-shirt and yet another wrestling DVD. He says he does not want any cake, boo! I offered to take him out for sushi tonight but he doesn't know if he'll be home in time for that. I told him he could go get a massage soon, too. I haven't gotten him a card yet b/c this week has been too crazy, but hopefully I can snag one tonight.

Tomorrow I will be teaching in another county all day long, then I have to work at Job #2 tomorrow night due to missing my regular night last night. Then it's another weekend with the baby, activity-filled as always!

Court case note: We have a hearing on May 17 to change the custody order, meaning the baby will come to live with us and the whore will get visitation! Our lawyer is trying to decide which of our witnesses to use. Once again... I can't wait for our day in court to get here.
