Well I had to head to Chicago for a Funneral on Friday..It was diffrent then any other ones I have been to. First, I didnt make it to the wake but i was told that there was a line all nite long, and that someone pulled their car to the side door which had 3 coolers in the back full of beer! They were drinking out in the alley during the wake...then when they ran out, someone went on a beer run! Then friday the funneral was your usual funneral..it was more a celebration of his life which was pretty cool. I would say there was about 1000-1500 people at the mass--the church was packed! Standing room only. Then at the luncheon, they had an open bar, tons of food and his neice was going around taking like party pics--or just pics of everyone that was there...it was alittle strange but if you looked at it as a celebration instead of he's gone and time to mourn...it was really nice.
THen Friday nite I got to see Little Ryan!! She is a adorable! We are already have a name problem when I'm there...Eric called Traci when I was there..he first asked how litle Ryan was doing, then Traci told him I was there then went back to talking about Little Ryan and then he asked what I was doing home early...but Traci took it as Little Ryan and said she was sleeping and he was like why is he sleeping..she said hes not sleeping...he came home for a funneral...our Ryan is sleeping..alittle confusing..so..I dont know..I just call her Little Ryan and I'm Big Ryan at the moment... :-) I'll get pics up soon...after Thanksgiving break. But she is sucha good baby!! she doesnt cry alot, just looks around and just taking it all in....or what she can at the moment...SHe doesnt get upset whent he dogs bark or loud noises..she's just chillin' I told them its because of the name..all Ryan's are quiet and laid back ;-)
When I got back to school..I guess I ruined Jon from the light beer...I got him hooked on Killian's and dark beers...ahahhaahha But a little darker beer has more flavor and worth every cent..instead of taht piss water...
At the moment our apartment smells like ass...which means O boy is back in town. For those few days..we had it under control, and all that work down the tubes. Hopefully O boy will leave tonite for break or early morning...Actually I dont care..I'm outta here tomrrow early afternoon.
Working out is going pretty good..but I think Jon is tryin gto kill me with the weights--J/k By x-mas I should be able to take Big Brother Dave with little to no problem--Definiately by Spring :-)
