So guess what I found out? The state of Tennessee actually has the season of Fall! And it's Here!



And it's cold... but do not fear, I bought a real jacket.
I went to a bible study for collage kids from my church on Sunday and I had a really good time. it was way out in the country, but the house that we went to was this awesome log house that was really big on a lot of land. I think the people that hosted the study this week where retired so now on this land that they own they sell bamboo. I know, it's really weird that some one can grow and sell the stuff for money but that is what they do. Bamboo.
So in there back yard they grew a bamboo fort and I took a picture of it.



We ended up having the study out side around their fire pit and once the sun went down it got really cold. It was great being out there and I remembered my jacket. "Wow, I like the Carhart jacket" said my new version of Josh Harris "Those are really nice"

In case you didn't know there are new versions of every one here in TN. The new Josh's name is Jeff. The new Ben Gable's name is Ben Gable. Every one except Jess, she has no equal.

Anyway Jeff was talking about how their church is setting up for a fall festival. In short, the collage kids where going to make a maze out of boxes for the kids to crawl though. So I went down there Thursday and helped out. No one really knew how they where going to do this maze so I started throwing out idea's and people started listening and before you knew it, I was using all my new friends to build what they only dreamed could happen.
Excepted for the lions mouth. Two creative people made that.. not me





This is the coolest thing I have ever made. You turn off all the lights in the class room that has two doors. You crawl though the lions mouth and try to find your way to the other door. The maze was really big, I had a hard time remembering where to go when I gave it a whirl and I built the dang thing! It's way cooler and way bigger then the picture shows it to be but it included Three dead ends, One big fort type room that you could sit down and think in, and a stand up spot that you could turn around in or if you're a little kid, stand up in.
I thought it was awesome. They're going to have a good time over there.

It's Not That Bad

I guess every one thought I was feeling like it was the end of the world, but I need to work on my writing skills because I thought that last blog was going to be kind of funny. It's either that or I need to work on my sense of humor. Thank you for cutting out encouragement notes and posting some bible passages. You are all too caring. I would have scrolled though and saw that there wasn't any pictures and closed the window.

This is my new friend that I met at a bar down town. I didn't get his name but we had a good time despite our differences.
I don't know when Keith is moving out but this guy would make a good replacement. He is the strong silent type. He has a steady job too so I think rent wouldn't be a problem.

A real problem is all the stinking little kids that live above me! I think there are at least 5 at any giving time but I'm still working on naming them all by there foot steps. Unfortunately they go to bed way later then I do. I used to be so cool when I would stay up late and now I'm bested by a couple of five year old kids. I need to make the best of this some how.
I should pay them to do my homework or something. Then I should get paid by their parents for keeping them all occupied for a couple of hours.
Wait.. I should do my own home work (because I do a good job) and get them to do the other people's at schools home work and those kids pay me twice as much as I pay the little kids and have their parents pay me to "watch them". This could really work don't you think?

I went out to my car to get some water (yes I keep all my water in my car) and one of the little girls calls down from the balcony "Hi" I say hi back to her and she said "Cool car" I said thank you and she said "Your cool too." I went inside.

UPDATE

I don't have cool pictures... I don't really have time to make anything up about my lame pictures. I guess some of my readers just like to read? I think I just made that up... this is no longer the coolest blog ever :( I'm even using lame smilely text.

Speaking of Smilely Keith smilely (yes, that's his name) is moving out! And all the lords people said AMEN.

(note. Keith is my room mate and he got kicked out for not paying rent, pray that I don't get a new room mate.)

In other odd names, I learned today that the Ben that I work with at my new job, the really big a scary one, his last name is Gable. Ben Gable. WEIRD

At school I have been making less friends, losing the friends that I have, insulting the teacher and making good grades. What ever it takes to get to the top right?

A real conversation

Stupid instructor: "I hate having all these kids come here, only 17, right out of high school and have their mommy's take care of everything for them and they can't even take a !@#$ing joke or do anything right... Wait theres no one in this class that's 17 right?"

Myself: "Well if there is they're not going to tell you now."

Stupid instructor "You can't even comb your hair! How old are you? Maybe 19?"

Myself: "Twenty."

Stupid instructor: "Twenty?! Man your ugly!"

Myself: "I have a lot to look up to if I'm ever going to be as ugly as you."

Now most every one knows that I don't try and insult adults going around bad mouthing my country and making my whole class laugh at our stupid instructor, but maybe you can tell that's just how stupid he is. He makes me look smart. Hmmm I guess that is his job.

I got a bad battery in my car and had to buy a new one after being late for work. Now between that and buffalow wild wings I'm getting poor.

It was a high of 65 today and this boy wasn't nick named "Floor A Duh" for nothing. I must learn to be one with the cold..... GO GATORS!

Keith " YOUWANTSOME@#$^INGFOOD"

David "Shut up you hick and open the door when you talk to me"

Keith "YOUWANTSOME%$#INGFOOD"

(he talks very loud and fast.)

David "No I don't want your $#@*ing food close the door. where you raised in Kuntucky or something?"

Keith"NOWYOUKNOWYOUCAN'TGOTALKINGABOUTMYSTATELIKETHAT!"

I guess David bested him by insulting his home state with Keith's own behavior.

Well hopefully I will be blog' en more often but as for now I have to go to bed and get ready for another day of "Me-vs.-Everyone"

I'd Say It's Darkest Before The Sunset (Picture taking son of a gun)

Before I get in to this you should now, the only thing I did this weekend was watch movies and play video games... it was very lonely. I did go to church and try to get invited to lunch again but I didn't get any offers. I think I might try dressing like all the other kids there with my light blue polo and bleach my teeth. Here is the church I really have been enjoying



I didn't let it get me down though as I went to buffalo wild wings to enjoy some loud drunk people all around me and watch a football game. Good after-church time right? When I parked I noticed I made a cookie!


Well, the place was packed because the Titans where playing when I got there. So I got stuck sitting outside watching greenbay lose to a team I have never heard of... it was very boring. But I got to eat some HOT wings!


After that it continued to rain till after school Monday. Thus, I come to my real story of how things didn't go to great at work. First of all it was the slowest it has ever been since I have worked there. People where getting sent home left and right so if any car came in I grabbed it and tryed to always look busy. I don't know if they knew that one of the cars a did the oil on was mine.
I got into a 2008 toyota tundra (A really big truck) and thought "Wow this is a really nice truck! I don't know why alot of people I know don't like it?" That was before I changed to oil. It took me FIVE valuble minuites just to find the oil filter. it was under a gaint metal plate that I had to take off just to get to it. Then I went to take the oil out. I looked and looked and I really didn't want to ask some body where the plug was but I couldn't find it. Suddenly it appeared right in next to my head. "If it where a snake it would have bit you" I heard my mother say some how. so I took out the plug and noticed that the oil was a lovly red color. I thought "wow fancy...
WAIT! THATS NOT OIL!"
I had started to drain a transmission fluid. I told one of the guys and thankfuly we had a qt. of the stuff wich is about all I let out before I threw a plug back in and found the real oil plug. It happend to be in the engine and not the transmisson. Who would have thought right?
THEN, I went to bring the cars in for the night. "Tyler, grab that green GMC and throw it into Ben's spot."
1.All of the cars that stay over night have to come inside.
2.Ben is not like the real Ben that I used to work for. He is a 6' four, 220 lb bald machainic around thirty some-thing. He smokes a pack a Paul malls a day and second to larry he is the scaryest man I have ever worked with.
I get into said GMC Truck and throw it into "R" for revenge. I see that I'm clear from other cars and I hit the gas. If you have ever heard the sound a standard car makes when you miss a gear then imagain that times ten, in an automactic. It made the worse nosie and it was really loud. A near by customer looked up at me and said in disbelive "I've never heard a car make that sound before!" So there a was with Ben's truck that he had to work on stalled in the parking lot. Reverse was no longer a part of this trucks gearing and that was not what it was in the shop for. It was there for rear end grinding. A related problum but still, I'm not aloud to type the cursing that followed by my fellow crafts-men.

After a long day of rainy school and work I noticed the sun was finally coming out. So I decided to go get lost and find a new way home. (KELLY DON'T TRY THIS)
I headed out and found a big out-let mall I had never seen and then it turned into the most beautiful country road with my house I'm going to buy on it.


Then I went through lots of green woods. About ten miles of green woods. I started to get worryed that I would have to turn around but the sunset was so bright and cheering that I didn't want to


Then out of now where the trees parted at an alarming rate and I was hit with the site of my lake with the burning sun falling into it. I yelled "YEAH!" into the open window like a little kid when I saw it, so pround that I had found my way. I slowed for a picture that dosen't do it justice.


Then a srtange thing happend. I saw a glowing pink pig and smelt that sweet buring fire and pulled over immedately.



I ordered my BBQ from a very friendly waitress who gave me a double helping of fri's because she said "..I like the way you look." I told her that I lked the way her BBQ placed looked. I guess she likes the un-showered oil/transmission-fluid-changer look I had going.


I then drove home on the better half of bell rd and ate my BBQ


not a bad ending to a long dark day.

How to make a Blog awesome(Better then yours)

To make a Blog awesome you have to live an awesome life. So if you don't have that done yet you should just give up.

You also don't have to know how to spell anything just so long as you know what you're saying.

You have to have lots of pictures INBETWEEN words so that the peoples' reading don't get bord.

Here are some cows on the highway

Also don't wait a long time between posts or you blog will just be an internet let down.
Just because you dont have time to go online doesn't mean your friends don't have time and you don't want to let your friends down.

Try to make up storys from your pictures to make your life more interesting.

"Today I went to school and got an A+ in my electric class and they told me that I didn't need to do any more wiring on cars ever again. In fact they told me that they would get the second best kid in the class to work for me and do all my wiring for the rest of my life. Actually he has to pay me to do my wiring, and he likes it. So then I went to the snap-on shop and ordered 50 grad worth of tools and said 'I don't have time for you to ship all this stuff I want it now'. So they got a truck to bring it all to my work place and I had the wiring kid, (I don't know his name, I'll call him Ben that sounds right) Ben to set it all up for me.


"So then I decided that my new boss should pay me to work on whatever I want to in his shop. So I bulit this car from scrach and it turned out ok. I think it has like 600 hp.
"Then I made Ben do all the wiring. It costed him alot but he really wanted to do it. I don't know why he wanted to? the car only has like three wires. Maybe he just wants to be as good as me at making stuff."

The last thing you need to have a awesome blog is lots of girls commenting on it ALL THE TIME. Even if its your mom, it counts. (Ben doesn't count he just does the wires)

New Things (For You)

Here are some new things that are going on.
On friday I was able to come home for the weekend and I had a really good time seeing friends and family. I headed back to the old grind on monday and ended up getting stuck in traffic multiple times and also in the rain, in the mountins.

Its ok I was going slow when I took this.
I got back an had to take another test at school and then start work at my new job.
I had a pretty good first day for being the new guy and all. I also got some pictures


That's my new shop and even though it's no "F and F Trucking" I think that I will do ok there.
(I just noticed you can see the giant dent in the roof of my car there)
I also got to sneak a picture of my good buddy Keith whom I share a room with.

spy pictures are never very flattering but there he is.
he was telling my about work that he used to do and I pretended to check my phone and took a side ways picture of him. pretty crazy stuff over here. (you can kind of see me in the mirror.)

Blog envy

Jessie had a rough day with sickness and school.... I had a kind of maybe long day but I can't write those long beautiful thought out blogs. All I kind of do is put up half good pictures and make jokes.
so here you go.


Yesterday things were a little "hairy".


In other news I have landed a job with goodyear tire and I'm coming home for a whole two days
(clear your planners(don't get sick(just kidding you can be sick ;) )))
