Count the Reasons

Good Afternoon & Happy Saturday,

You have to count the reasons why you do, WHATEVER it is you want to do.

Today is Saturday 02/02/V3.3 & it is fresh cookies day/pushing a car day.

Well it started off r-o-u-g-h & then & then & then.

  • Went to Brandon’s & had some pizza
  • Went to the Creighton University Bluejays vs Bradley University Braves
  • NOW I’m at home & about to take a nap.

I’m suppose to take Spinach Dip to work tomorrow. BUT uh I’m not really feeling it. I make promises though & must follow though.

The word of the day is boustrophedor which is an ancient method of writing in which the lines run alternately from right to left and from left to right. 

Well that’s it, be sure to visit Photographs by Vernon J for shots from today’s game.

Really, that’s it?

Good Afternoon,

I have so much more to share with you from Saturday 01/19/V3.3

This would have been My Evening Report if I wasn’t having so much fun being awesome. There was a six year old who said I was awesome, you know how judgmental those children can be. I’m pretty proud of that.

He even let me keep his fireman hat from Firehouse Subs, visit http://www.FireHouseSubs.com which has 3 convenient metro locations.

We also played ‘Jumbling Tower’, now I won’t say what company that this project is from. BUT it is no Jenga, & I discussed this with Double –L. The reasons for the ‘less than spectacular’ experience. She has until Ben’s Birthday Friday, 04/26. He will either be 23 or 24. Much younger than the 43 years that Double –L is.

There was another reason why I wanted to post this entry, maybe I’ll get that back in my head before it goes LIVE!

The following is a shameless plug for Dani’s Walking blog. http://www.blogger.com/profile/14568856033101931806,it reminds me of Nick’s goal to walk so much for so far. I don’t know what her goal for walking is (okay I did read a little more) it was to go with her professional work at RYC Visit http://www.moveyourbodybetter. com/ for more info. If you have a blog or website & you want some free referrals. I could make it happen.

Well that’s it for right now.

I’ll be Ready

Good Morning & Happy Wednesday,

As I was showering I was singing I’ll be Ready.

Today is Wednesday 01/16/V3.3 & I took an oath of confidentiality.

What song(or lyrics) do you sing when you are showering?

I have work today, that’s Eleven & One Half Hour of work. YEAH!

The word of the day is preconcert which is to arrange in advance or beforehand, as by a previous agreement.

That’s it for now, make it a GREAT Day!!!

Part II

So I said I would post after my nap. Since I haven’t taken a nap this is a BONUS ENTRY.

So we went to Wheatfields today. I had the (insert food here), the darn website WheatfieldsCatering.com crashed when I was trying to do this on my netbook. The website doesn’t work when you visit it on your phone by the way.

We then went shopping for a gag gift. We got someone a Justin Bieber toothbrush, apparently Melissa MaryHannah has one of those. We got them some Legg’s & some things that make your shoes sexy. I don’t know what’s going on on that side of the chromosome genes.

I then went to the Omaha Public Library and checked out Glass Heart by Amy Garvey.

I made Reservations at Crave on an ‘undisclosed date’ for us. I don’t know how it will turn out, but from my formal research data it will be better. Mindi didn’t have a date last year on that ‘undisclosed date’ & I didn’t have a date on that ‘undisclosed date’. I went & saw Chronicle last year at this time. I can’t tell you what date it was, cause remember I’m not disclosing the date. If you know anything about me & you are at Vernon-J.com so you can learn more about me RIGHT HERE!

I then went to work at the Benson Community Center, be sure to check out the Discovery Guide bouchure done by Omaha Advertising.

Then I cam home and pretended like I was going to take a nap. I didn’t. We went to California Tacos, where they serve California Tacos. Ask Michelle & she’ll tell you about that conversation.

Went to see Omaha Mavericks Hockey game today. They won the game today 1 to 3, with a population of 6,698 fans. With getting tonight’s win they became the leaders in the WCHA Conference Standings. Good Job Boys. Visit OMavs.com for more info.

Apparently there is a movie called FDR: American Badass!, haven’t seen the movie. BUT if Abraham Lincoln : Vampire Hunter  was good. A movie about the XXXII President of the United States of America can’t be wrong.

Well that is it for now.

Have a GREAT Sunday!!!

 

*edit* at 23.47 on the 5th day of January in the 34th year of Vernon J this post was corrected to reflect who actually has a Justin toothbrush.

That’s just Physics, Baby

Good Morning & Happy Friday Eve.

Oh you slipped, that’s just physics baby.

Today is Wednesday 12/26/V3.3 & it is bonus laundry day & getting things done.

I better slow down here, I’ve started a load of laundry, eating breakfast. ALL within the 1st hour of getting up. I even got up a little early(ie before the alarm went off).

How can people ‘forget’ where the parking spots are doing the winter time? IF you know the answer to this, comments go below.

The word of the day is avidity which is enthusiasm or dedication.

Aren’t You & Vernon J the same person?

Well I’ve discovered another error in an app I use on a regular basis. I’ve sent them a twitter post, hopefully the fixed it.

Instagram appears to have fixed the error where the same picture would come up multiple time, even after closing the app. I guess we don’t really ‘close’ an app on the phone, we just go home or open another app.

I’ll be back, don’t miss me.

Did you miss me? OH you didn’t know that I was gone, because this isn’t a live & in your face entry.

Hmmmm What else do I have left to share?

 

I think that is it, so I’m going off for now.

Vernon J out.

Living the Dream & Spelling Words Wrong

Good Morning & Happy Friday,

So I was talking to a ‘friend’ & I spelled a word wrong. I was about to delete it & then I was like, nah. I can use this. I did.

Today is Friday 11/16/V3.3 & I did it for the girl.

So we have just under III hours before I have to be to work.

So did anything else happen int he news, I’ve been so disappointed by this. There isn’t much more to say. The company has experienced III bankruptcies in the last XX years. They have a product to sell & will be just fine, it is just time to say NO to unions. With $12 to $15 bucks 3% to 5% retirement matching I’d make bread for a living.

Looking ahead to the weekend (we are 35 hrs & 42 mins in). As of yesterday about 14.40 or so, I found out that my time from 06.00 to 10.00 is now open and free to enjoy it. WE (that includes real countable, named persons now) have a XXX Birthday party to go from 13.00 to 17.00. I do like celebrating friends XXX Birthday parties. IT is such an amazing age. Life expectancy in the Early 20th Century Life Expectancy was just XXXI. How far we’ve come. XXXIII & still kicking, okay I haven’t kicked anyone in weeks.

The word of the day is bird-dog which is to follow, watch carefully, or investigate.

Would this be an awesome tattoo or what?
With all this crazyness in the world, I think I deserve a little art to put on my back. I would get a tattoo & it would have to be something like this.

I would never get a name*, actor, logo, or character tattoo’d on me.

Well that’s it for now, just keep it up & we’ll be fine.

Vernon J out.

My Evening Report

Good Evening & Happy post-Wednesday.

Found a new game on Tuesday night, played till 02.00 Wednesday morning. Hill Climb Racing – Android Apps on Google Play

Worked, had a good time

Nap, slept well

Worked, DIDN’T get yelled at! This is the measurement of how my day was at work.

Came home had a voicemail from Mindi. You know my girlfriend.

Tomorrow I am OFF, yeah.

I had this ‘notion’ that I would get up at 07.00 & do laundry. That was the dumbest thing I thought today. I’ll start a load when my alarm goes off at 09.58.

I cam home, caught up on #TeeVee. Talked to NOT I, but II Nicole’s, a Bridget & a Cassandra tonight. via twitter & facebook.

Just chillin & listening to some music before I crawl in bed. THAT reminds me, I need to turn the heat. The Heat is On!

That’s it for me.

2 Books Read

Good Morning & Happy Sunday,

I finished II books between Monday 10/29/V3.3 & Sunday 11/04/V3.3.

Today is Sunday 11/04/V3.3 & it started out pretty well. Do you see a trend here?

So last night I went to the Celebration of Mike & Tyson’s 32nd year. We went to the new(ly named) Harrison Pub. I behaved myself and no one got in trouble, at least to the best of my knowledge.

So the books I read was The Lens and the Looker & The Entitled. Both were good books & could be read in II days or less, you just have to NOT be distracted by work & stuff. I’m going to start on the second book of The Verona Trilogy.

So today is the Hump Day of my XI day journey. We are almost on the back half of this journey. I couldn’t be more excited for Saturday 11/10/V3.3. Now what to do on my day off? I do work half day(just 1 shift) I do have Thursday 11/08/V3.3 OFF!. I signed up to help with The Salvation Army Christmas Assistance Sign-UP. Then I just have one shift on Friday 11/09/V3.3. My doubles this week are Tuesday 11/06/V3.3.

The word of the day is siesta is a miday or afternoon rest or nap. Maybe I’ll grab one of those before work. I was up about 07.00. I can squeeze in a II hour nap.

On Tuesday Night I’m going to some event, that has been building since Tuesday 05/15/V3.3. The day we Nebraskans decided who was going to face off in the general election.

Rest your Head

Good Morning & Happy Sunday,

I’m coming to you LIVE from Council Bluffs, IA.

Today is Sunday 10/21/V3.3 & it is a 4 hours & a dinner day.

Paul is here in Council Bluffs & I’m volunteering on parking lot|counter-ballot detail. I’m doing an awesome job.

I then head to the Ralston Events Center for the open house.
I’m not sure what I’ll be doing there.

Then it is time to clean, cook, & hangout with Mindi. I’m looking forward to that part of my day.

The word of the day is recusant which is a person who refuses to submit, comply, etc.

I work at job Number 2 Monday thru Friday this week. Thanks to Donna for taking my Saturday shift. I work the Saturday hockey game.

What is on your agenda this week?

So yeah, yesterday I worked 0700 to 1000 for overtime. You know how awesome it is waking people up. We can call as early as 07.00 VST. So people who enjoyed their Friday Nights got to hear. Good Morning is William Clinton there?

Went home & took a nap cause that’s what we do.

Then went to work & a tough game that we didn’t win. Came home & watched Fantastic Four. Then went to bed.

I made the executive decision not to do My Evening Report, since I’m the CEO of The Official Blog of Vernon J.

Well YES, of course

Good Morning & Happy Saturday,

Well YES, of course I did that yesterday.

Today is Saturday 09/29/V3.3 & we have 2 or more things to do today.

Prior to any of that I have to eat breakfast, do my ADL’s & then off to do those two things.

Well YES my day did start at 00.57 & it won’t end until 23.00. BUT I’m up for the challenge.

The word of the day is catholicon which is a universal remedy; panacea.

On tap for sports today we have Omaha’s Team in action. A totally of 4 sports in action.

  1. The men’s Tennis played at 09.00
  2. The Cross Country Team is in action at 11.00
  3. The Men’s Soccer team is in action at 13.00 &
  4. The Volleyball team is in action at 16.00.

The Soccer Team is at home, so you can go to that game for sure. We are playing the IUPUI Jaguars twice today. IF we can play like we did yesterday, we can come out 4 – 0 today. I’ll be celebrating the volleyball game at my desk just like I did yesterday. It got kinda crazy, but that’s how much I like Omaha’s Team.

Have a wonderful day.
