Today my Grandad will be undergoing more tests and procedures on his bladder and kidney to find the source of his infection. We are praying that the tests will reveal the answer, although we are believing that the answer will not be something to worry about. Please keep in your thoughts and prayers today as well.
My old friends Bonnie Quarterman, Grace Thornton, Ashley Mills, and Amy Bufkin (otherwise known as the fabulous foursome the Suitee Hearts) were in town yesterday for a four-day bachelorette cruise for Ashley.
After spending a few hours hanging out in the Orlando International Airport's food court, Bonnie's Dad "Wick" Mallalieu arrived on the scene to bring us to Port Canaveral (the final destination, unbeknownst to Ashley).
I documented the whole day, and you can view the full gallery on Facebook.
Another wrestling legend will never live to see his 50th birthday.
Scott "Bam Bam" Bigelow was found dead in his Hudon, FL home last week at the age of 45.
The cause of death is unknown, but an autopsy by the Pasco-Pinellas Counties medical examiner should shed some light on the situation.
Bigelow, one of the most agile "big men" ever to compete in the sport, won multiple championships over his 20 year run as a professional wrestler across all three major wrestling leagues (WWF/E, WCW and ECW).
WWE.com has a great retrospective on his career, along with comments from friends and wrestlers sharing their favorite memories of "The Beast from the East".
I have some great memories watching Bam Bam wrestle growing up, and (though he hasn't been active in the public eye lately) always will be regarded as a legend by old school fans.
He will be sorely missed by his family and friends.
Well, it happened again.
We just had ANOTHER fire alarm go off "accidentally".
All of the occupants of the Extended Stay filed out of their rooms and out into the parking lot fleeing the piercing buzzing, like a group of 4th graders during a fire drill.
This is the second time within the last 10 days that the fire alarm has sounded without reason (last time it was a maintenance test).
I seriously hope that the powers that be can get this straightened out, because I fear people will begin to lose their patience if more of these mishaps occur.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to stop my eardrum from bleeding.

Yours is the Kingdom
And the power
And the glory forever is Yours
Heaven and earth bow down
In the wonder of Your Name

Death is broken
And the glory forever is Yours
Nothing can overcome
The power of Your Name

You are wonderful
And the shout of the earth
Will be Your praise
God forever
And the light unto all
Will be Your wonderful Name
For the glory Lord is Yours
God forever
All the glory Lord is Yours
MONK fans rejoice! Everyone's favorite obsessive compulsive detective returns with all new episodes beginning January 19th (alongside Psych) on the USA Network.
And the marketing department at Universal has been pulling out all the stops with some pretty clever commercials lately, including one entitled, "Monk Discovers Heaven" (featuring Adrian Monk exploring his own personal dreamland, where the sky is always blue and attendants disinfect parking meters).
