Happy Birthday, Dave.

I started off the day with a call from Rob. He was a fire reserve with me when I first started at Pullman fire. He is not a state trooper with the Washington State Patrol. I had left a message for him to call me. He called me and with chatted over for a short period of time. Rob is a nice guy. He was one of the guys I always thought was a good looking guy. Before I was out to many people and before I was out to anyone at the fire department I was going to tell him on one day before he left. I knew he was hired for the state patrol. We were talking about stuff one day and I was close to telling him but I lost my nerve before I actually told him. So, as far as I know, he still does not know. I think he would be totally fine with it.

Today is shopping day. I have to get a Christmas present for the family exchange. I also need to get coveralls and a coat for the coroners office. I started by going to Blumenthal’s. I tried on a pair of coveralls. Afterwards I drove to Southcenter. I went to a few stores. I checked out some shoes. I think I will get a pair. Then I went to Spenser's. I was checking out all the things they have there. It is a bunch of abstract stuff. There is a lot of party type things. One item I found I think I may get. It has a bunch of LED's. It spins around and makes some cool shapes. I also looked for a calendar like I had last year. It was a wall calendar with pictures of hot shirtless guys. I did not find one. Then I went to Work n More. I got a pair of Levi's and a pair of leather gloves to use while working at the fire department.

I went home after that and I waited around until dinner. My brother and I were going to go to Diamond Lil's and play some Texas Hold'em. He said that about five other guys were going to come along. We played at the same table. One guy named Mark is a blonde hair blue eyed guy. He is a good looking guy. We were all at the table when some cards thrown in were accidentally shown. So the dealer let everyone know what they were. Jon said "You're kidding me." He thought the hand was going to get re-dealt. We all laughed since it was obvious that he had a nice hand.

Dave came down. It was his birthday. He played a little bit. We all left around midnight. Dave and I then went to Freddie's Club and played Let It Ride. It was cool they gave Dave and I a free dinner for his birthday. We played some Texas Shootout as well. Then we ate dinner and I headed home and let Amber out for a potty break. I watched TV and then it was off to bed.
