Really good. Was a little worried because forecast called for lots of rain. But no showers on beach days.
Son popped the question to his girlfriend. She said yes. So very happy about that. (Reason for cruise)
Couple of funny stories to share when I get back

So…
Who’s the starter?

He picks Faizon. Admittedly has been at camps with FB though and not been around Gmac. Primary reason stated was FBs 9-1 ratio of TDs to INTs vs Gmac threw 12picks as a junior alone. Faizon only threw 10 in 3years as a starter combined with 2state titles playing in NCs highest division of public schools vs weaker competition Gmac faced. He also pointed out that FB has better mechanics. He isn't down on Gmac at all though...raves about his cannon arm and touch, says he's actually better runner than FB and good at throwing when off platform etc. He just thinks FB is going to be Great and better than Gmac.
He doesn't say when though either LOL. One could assume that he thinks this year...but he doesn't say so and I think FB has a much better shot next year than this year when he has a year in the system and can just read and react without so much thinking. That said...this is a very QB friendly system which usually only has 2 reads per snap max...on the same side of the field on passing downs. Which is why Joey was here 3months before starting game 1 and still led the SEC in passing yards. So FB may grab it right away. Either way, Iron sharpens Iron and UT wins

Well, Congrats, but that was a TERRIBLE DECISION!

A cruise to get engaged? Now she will EXPECT trips and PRESENTS and NICE THINGS for her birthday, and Christmas, AND the like.

She was gonna be happy with a ring. Do it walking down the street. Or at the coffee shop. She won't care. Then, save the, CRUISE, FOR LATER.

that BOY, must, be young, to do something, like that.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!!!

;)

Safe Travels, and fair skies and strong winds to the happy couple!

Young men often make the mistake of setting a women’s expectations too high too early.

Oh no trust me it’s the EPA and their idiot forced switch over to R454B refrigerant. Due to forced component manufacturing changes I was quoted the cheaper option to replacing an A coil was to do the coil and compressor/condenser change and swap to R454B. I don’t have to do the coil … yet… I just have a leak at the A coil suction line exit. So for now I’m just gonna repair the leak, replace the dryer, evacuate and recharge. But… it’s a 12 year old coil it could pop in a month and then this repair money is down the drain. I was just going to bite the bullet and do the coil now but not after this stupidity quoting.

booked our honeymoon trip to Ireland. Delta was being a wanker. Literally every time we advanced to the next stage of selecting our flight, then seats, then putting in our info, and even payment info the cost kept going up. the flight itself ended up being about 200 bucks more expensive without any upgrades. tried it on a couple devices and had the same issue.

we were also trying to use up the miles we have then pay the rest, but Delta only lets you do that if you have a certain percentage of points we didn't have. also it was strange because the wife's credit card is supposed to come with a discount on Delta flights, including international. but the website said that was only available as a discount if you paid for the flight with miles. If we paid it all with miles, how would we register the card to get the discount?

still need to book the rest, including a trip over to Denmark to visit Legoland. but with dates set we get to really make plans now.
