Round Up…

Written on February 20th in Uncategorized

**While I was in the hospital, Rob slyly acquired a new pet. I know he’s been wanting a snake for a couple of months but we also agreed to a warm-blooded animal rule. So, I suggested he take the terrarium to work and keep it there. The gun magazines don’t have a warm-blooded animal rule so what better place? He bought a green tree snake which is very green and very snakey. It’s not really a “pick me up and play with me snake” so I think it should like its new home. He may even be an official mascot and be in some of the ads. So, see…he really didn’t have a reason to not TELL me about the snake. The terrarium has been out for for a few weeks and apparently I should just ASSUME that since a light is on, there is an occupant. My female mind doesn’t process things that way ding dong.

**Saturday is the big day. Melissa and I are going to see Bon Jovi at the United Center. Of course, the only tickets I could get my hand on for less than $200 a piece are behind the stage but I think it’ll be okay. It’s Bon Jovi and Daughtry. I think I can live without the ’show’. I have no idea about parking since I’ve always gone up charter coaches so if you have any suggestions, I’d gladly accept them.

**Next Friday is the 2008 Prairie Air Show WING OFF. I understand that absolutely EVERYTHING in Peoria is going on that day, but it promises to be a pretty entertaining evening. One of our favorite bands, Elwood! is starting the night off with their awesome acoustic stylings and EXIT is performing after the awards are presented. So far, participating restaurants include: VOP’s, Atlanta’s Wings & A Prayer, Kelleher’s Irish Pub, Hammer’s, Euro Jack’s, VOP’s, Hooter’s and Old Chicago. 2007 People’s Choice Winner TNT’s is not participating this year, so the title is up for grabs. Can Hammer’s win it back?

**If your not going to Satuday’s Bradley game, the Peoria Jaycees Bar Olympics at The Recovery Room or Bon Jovi at the United Center, KING ORANGE will be playing at Brogy’s in Sunnyland!!

    Hey Angie,
    There are lots of parking options when you get up there. They have the actual united Center parking $20ish if I remember and then they have the “look we have parking and we will charge you a little less” all around the Center too! You shouldn’t have a problem. Have fun “Living on a Prayer”!

    The Wing-Off is here already? I seem to remember it being warm out last year, because I was wearing shorts. Why are they having it now?

    They had to move the airshow up to April to accomodate the Blue Angels.

    A wing-off on a Friday during Lent is not such a great idea.
