War of the roses

Hello Blog Buds
Happy Friday! i am so happy the weekend is here, today was the last day of my summer job teaching tennis woohoo. I am glad it's over somewhat I will miss all the kids and adults, but I will enjoy catching up on sleep and staying out of the heat. I am currently looking for some yellow spandex for my new look thanks a lot TGP. That update will happen soon, but don't expect pictures of me I never post pictures of myself I am a very private individual, oh and I am ugly. So, on to today's post.

While driving to work every morning I like to listen to 93.1 Radio Now out of Indianapolis, mostly because they have the best morning show and the greatest prank calls. It's called Marco and the Morning Mess, and it's HILARIOUS! They have recently started this segment called the war of the roses, and I love it. Basically what they do is offer people to see if their spouse is cheating. One of the DJ's will call the spouse with the other spouse on the line and pose as a flower company saying they have won free flowers no strings attached, just need to know who to send them too. Then when they don't say their significant other the spouse on the line goes crazy it's hilarious. The other day they did one that made me about piss myself with laughter, I am not kidding people driving next to me probably thought I was insane.

So, this lady calls in and says she is 100% sure the husband will send her the flowers, but she wants to make check it out. The backstory is he is on a "business" trip with a very attractive female coworker and the wife doesn't trust the lady. They always ask before they place the call are you sure you want to do this and the wife was like yes he will send them to me. The DJ named shannon made the call and everytime she has done this the person has sent them to the significant other so it's looking good for the wife. She calls and says "Hi I am calling from 1-800-flowers and we wanted to congratulate you, as you have won free flowers. Immediately he cuts her off and says no thanks. So the wife is like call back so they do, and shannon does her pitch and says please just let me finish sir, and he does, and she is like no strings attached I don't need a credit card number or anything. The guy sounds skeptical still but is like and there are no strings attached, and shannon says no just need the name and address of the person you are going to send them too. The guy gets all shady and starts to whisper and says can you call me back this isn't a good time! Shannon goes for the kill and says why not sir, and he says "the woman I want to send the flowers too is in the hotel room with me right now" HAHA! The wife on the other line goes POSTAL, she is like you son of a bitch! He totally recognizes the voice and is like what the hell is going on here!

Alright so they tell him he is on the radio so he doesn't drop the fbomb, and he is like what sick and twisted game are you playing. The wife asks is she in the room with you right now, what's going on haha! So, she gets really quiet and the DJ's start to blast the guy saying what a great business trip you must be on, and must be nice to have your hot coworker share your room! He claims it's a business partner which totally pisses the wife even more, I am telling ya it's awesome. Then the guy thinks his wife has hung up and the DJ's are still ripping him a new one, and he is like I am not going to discuss this with you anymore she isn't even on the line. The wife then speaks up and says think again pal! haha I love it! She basically told him not to come home.
You can listen to it here it's Mark and Jeannine.

Big Brother Update
Jase got voted out 9-0 YES! I was so happy he was nasty and a jerk, not to mention he called my Janelle a prostitute. Then the best thing ever Janelle got Head Of Household, but who will she put up, Chill town? Floaters? We will see. I think there are so many side alliances that we don't even know about yet it will be exciting when they come into play. Don't be surprised if Dr Will pushes Janelle hard to go after Danielle or Diane.

Enjoy your weekend :)

PS I will get around to all your blogs late tonight or tomorrow I am getting ready to go out with Kristen. Also song on the blog is "bring it on home" by little big town, dedicated to seahag

Better late then never right?

Ahh hello blog friends. I have had a long day, and as soon as I post this I am off to dreamland, because I am exhausted. So, how is everyone? Remember to keep sending in ideas for "makeover phats for a day" you can do it on the previous entry, titled "phat tuesdays" Nuttina will be selecting a winner soon, and the winner will be announced sometime Wed. Some good and interesting suggestions so far. For tonight I thought i'd talk about my summer addiction, yes that's right I have an addiction, it's Big Brother All Stars! Does anyone watch this reality show? I know Nuttina does.

This season they chose to do an all star season inviting back 20 former contestants, then the american public would vote in some, and the producers would pick the rest with 14 people going into the house. Those being
Janelle(Season 6) Dr Will(Season 2 winner)
Danielle(season 3 runner up) Kaysar(season 6
Diana(season 5) Howie(season 6)
Erika(season 4) James(season 6)
Nakomis(season 5) Mike Boogie(season 2)
Alison(season 4 runner up) Marcellas(season 3)
Chicken George(season 1) Jase(season 5)

First off, after 2 evictions, Allison and Nakomis have been sent packing, and neither were a big surprise. Alison couldn't flirt this time, and Nakomis was just uhh no thanks. Next Chicken George does not belong in this house, he was picked by the producers for one reason, so they could have each season represented and no other season 1 people were up for it. I am not sure why Diane is considered an all star either, seeing as how she didn't do anything special in her season but fall for a guy who when it came down to it chose a dumbass cowboy over her for the final 2. Erika rode coattails so much in her season I was surprised to see her get selected as well, and she is riding coattails yet again, make a play already!

People I am rooting for, of course Janelle, I love her! She was so awesome in her season and America loved her. She was in charge of kicking out Allison in week 1, and I loved every moment of that. It seems like everyone in the house is going for her, it will be hard for her to win it. Marcellas cracks me up, the black gay male he is so funny. Everyone knows he is teamed up with Janelle which makes me like him even more. That is my ideal final 2, Marcellas and Janelle. We'll see if that happens. Dr Will, is the best to ever play the game, and we'll see how he does this time around I liked him in season 2, probably one of the only people that did haha. I can't stand Mike Boogie, and I think if Will weren't playing the game he'd be gone by now, because he can't think for himself. Kaysar, another favorite of America has made another dumb ass move already, he thinks he is this great player but in reality he really isn't. He was outplayed by that whore Jenn last year, now he is too intimidated to put boogie and will up. What a pansy. Watch out for Danielle, she played her cards WAY too early this season, but after surviving eviction, she is going to be a tough out. I love the way she plays this game, so smart. James is my pick to win it all though, I see him getting it done this time. It was nice to watch him win the HOH this past week. I don't believe he ever won it last season? I think he will go after Chicken George, call it a hunch!

I have had an incredibly long day today. I was up by 6am, off to the doctor by 7:45, teaching tennis from 9-12, home for a quick nap, shower, and food. Back to tennis from 5-6. Then I headed over to my grandma's(more on that later) . I got home tonight around 9ish and I am ready to crash. Can I just say I hate fasting, and it never fails I am always so thirsty for a coke when I absoluletly can't have one ugh! So, more on my grandma, as some of you know she has had some major health problems lately. She can barely walk now, and she lives in this nice BIG house alone. Well, my Aunt, and cousins are in town this week from Georgia, so the family took action. We discussed all options from her moving in with my parents, or my aunt and uncle, etc, to getting a senior companion, and we finally settled in on an idea we all liked. We turned her kitchen into an apartment. It made all the sense as everything she needs is in there, bathroom, running water, food, tv. So we got her ALL new carpet, moved her bed, set her up and she is spending her first night in her "new" place tonight. She wasn't happy she likes her freedom, but we are ALL worried she might take another fall with nobody there and then we're screwed. When I left it looked good, a cool little set up, I would have lived there haha :)

Some random notes to leave you with.
Purdue is kicking ass in recruiting. It's incredibly exciting that Coach Matt Painter got his 4th verbal today from a top 100 player. It's going to be the best class since Glenn"Big Dog" Robinson signed with the Boilers. The best part 2 of them picked Purdue over Indiana HAHA WOOHOO!! A Fort Wayne newspaper said the other day for their headline "Purdue kicking IU's tail in recruiting" I am loving every minute of it. Of course their coach is a cheater, who is a snake in the grass so he will probably still recruit them the jackass. Purdue football will be here before you know it, and so will fire up friday's! woot

With summer winding down are any of you going on cool vacations? If so do share. I promise to share my big secret soon, but it's still materializing. It's not what everyone thinks it is. Keep sending in suggestions for my making me over! I will figure out some clever way to prove i did it.

Have a great weekend
Phats
PS Travis and Heidi were AWESOME on so you think you can dance wed night.

Phat Tuesday's

Ahh yes, I am back and refreshed. I want to first thank Nutty for getting the word out about my time off, and I 100% agree with EVERYONE we miss you! It was good to have you back even if it was just to deliver my message, and update us on Roxie. I know you have been pulled to the darkside, myspace, but you are still welcome to blog here anytime. Alright moving on.

I thought coming back on a Tuesday was only fitting right, so here we go making Tuesday's the best day on blog. So I thought about what I could do that would be fun and interactive and get you all involved and I believe I have come up with something kind of fun. However it's only fun if you all get involved. So here we go, are you excited, I know I am.

This week's Phat Tuesday's is Give Phats(Me) a make over. I am going to allow you all to choose an outfit with accessories from head to toe to wear, and I will wear it. The only thing out of bounds is Indiana University clothes or anything saying Hoosiers, as well as Notre Dame, or Irish sorry I just couldn't do that. So here is how this works. Just put your outfit idea in the comments, and Nutty is going to pick 3 finalists, and I will then pick the winner. You can submit a maxium of 3 different entries, and the winner will be announced next Tuesday, July 25th. Have fun and make it wild! By the way I will not be posting pictures of myself, nobody needs to see that, but I will think of someway to post something that proves I wore it, just might take awhile

Also, my name is Phats, and I am always this way with my personality. That's my story and I am sticking to it. Also I can't get music videos to play on anyone's blogs anymore :( if anyone can help me it would be appreciated. Thanks Steph, I know you tried, sorry you can't judge.

Have a great Phat Tuesday!

Hi everybody......... Hi Dr Nick!

Wow, I am exhausted and my week isn't even over yet bleh. I usually get Friday's off from teaching tennis but with not having any classes meet on the 4th of July I have to make them up tomorrow. I literally thought I might die on Monday, it was so blasted hot, 96 degrees, feeling like 105 it was crazy. Luckily it has cooled down it's perfect tennis weather today. I am actually getting ready to go back to teach the adult class. I was so tired today I cancelled my private lesson at 1 so I could nap. I stupidly chose to play doubles last night, and I paid the price this morning that's for sure. I am so sore! We did win though yay! :) I am just ready to get thru tomorrow it's going to be a long day.

So, I am going to get bloodwork done again tomorrow, the med center chose to change my medications, which is good. It's bad though because it means more blood work. I go tomorrow morning, then a week from tomorrow, then a month from tomorrow to make sure the kidney is accepting the new dosage. It's awesome I got another med crossed off the list! It sure makes traveling so much easier when you don't have quite so many meds. So tomorrow I have to be at the lab by 7:45, wait around then head to the park for classes from 9-12, then a private lesson back in town from 12:30-1:30, then head back for the adult class. Lots of work, but it keeps me busy and that's cool.

I am way too competitive, I know this and it's not something I am concerned about. I love to win, infact I will do anything to win :) Steph even told me the other night "man you're too competitive!" I was like uhh yeah and? It's not just when I am playing games, sports, etc, it's my teams too. I absolutely hate when Purdue loses I take it probably as hard as the team. My family and friends know I need about 30 mins after a Purdue loss before trying to talk to me haha. Shoot last year during our shitty losing streak I even went on Blogger strike until Purdue won. I have always taken losing hard, I think it's in my genes seeing as my dad was a big time college athlete, and he passed it down to me. I constantly think what could I have done differently to turn the outcome around. It's gotten so bad that I think I want to win more then the teams I currently coach, that's a problem! haha.

I have not had any of those delicious treats yet! The fair starts Monday and that's when they have them. The fair around here is a BIG deal, just ask Nutty or Wendy. Our fair is one of the biggest in the state, and we all know what that means, TONS of carney's!! I used to ride all the rides at the fair when I was younger, but now that I know that those people take apart and put them together on a daily basis almost it's a little more scary. I will still ride the zipper though you can't find that at many amusement parks. My sister is coming and she and I are going Monday night, and my dad and I usually go over and get some food one night, and I believe Kristen and I will go one night as well.

For those of you interested the space shuttle docked today at the International Space Station, and will take pictures now of the shuttle to check for any damage from liftoff. Pretty cool eh? I saw on NASA TV they were all floating around up there, I think that's just nuts and would be pretty cool. They are scheduled to return to home July 16th, lets hope they make a safe and happy return.

Well, not really much else to write about I am going to try and get around to all your blogs. Hope everyone has a great weekend! College football right around the corner get ready for some Purdue posts!

Happy 4th Of July!

Hope everyone has a safe and fun holiday. I am heading to a BBQ and a pool party tomorrow, provided the storms stay away. Then watching the hometown fireworks from my backyard. Be safe and enjoy.

For those of you who were asking here are some pics for you.

First we have the deep fried oreos. Usually served with Chocolate Sauce and Vanilla Ice cream



Next we have the deep fried twinkies with Chocolate and strawberry sauce, get one of each












Finally we have the deep fried Snickers with powdered sugar

Personally my favorite is the oreos so good. I can't wait for fair week just for the food I will probably gain 100lbs, just going to have to make my workout tougher to lose it! :)

Enjoy your holiday

Music is Martina McBride "Independence Day" I thought it was fitting although it's about spouse abuse.
