Fritz Leon



Where to begin??? Jeremy finally caved in and said I could adopt a dog. After a long search and a possible dog scam, I finally found what I considered a perfect dog. Housebroken, cute, and local. (Not from some scammer in Africa) So I took the day off work, and my friend Lori and I went to LaGrange to pick him up. He was instantly friendly and loving. He was just relaxing on the car ride home and nothing seemed to bother him.
The next day, I took him to a groomer up the street and he came home looking and smelling like a new dog. Complete with a little decoration on his collar! Less than 24 hours later, Fritz was let outside (by the fault of one whom shall remain nameless). I couldnt believe it. After all that he is just gone????? So we canvased the neighborhood and even made up fliers. The gas station next door said they saw him walk through the store earlier and he smelled great! UGGG....Walking through the neighborhood squeaking a squeaky toy, turned up no dog! I was devastated.
FINALLY Jeremy and his brother Jason both went out on their bikes yelling for Fritz (imagine that scene if you will)...Jason found him across the highway sitting on the porch of an abandoned house. He is home safe and sound. What a day!

American Idol




Melissa and I went to Chicago to the AllState Arena to see the American Idol concert. It has become a tradition the past 6 years or so. This trip was quite eventful. We were supposed to leave early to go shopping, but Hayden came down with Pink Eey. When we left, Melissa had contracted it (or something!) as well. She was pretty much miserable the entire time and still had a good time!
The concert itself was great, and my man Danny Gokey had a voice like butter! So smooth and warm! Yum!
