Bubba, Bubba, and Bob . . .
Well, I think we’re officially a Texas drill rig now. We have our very own flare stack, though it’s only been in operation a couple of times since they put it up a few days ago.
Hope it’s not going to act up like the one in front of us last year. That one was more like a volcano, with burning oil cascading down the sides and shooting smoke rings and fire balls into the air.
But it was very entertaining.
Normally when a vehicle comes up to the gate, I write their tag number down as they approach, and then I greet them with Good Morning or Good Afternoon, and ask for their first and last names. Then if there’s no company name on the vehicle, I ask “Who’re you with?”
But I may have to change this. The other day when I ask this to the driver, he turned to look at his passengers and said as he pointed, “This is Jose, and Hector and Juan.”
Then last week I when I ask the same question, I got, “Bubba, Bubba, and Bob.” I guess my look conveyed my confusion, because he then said, “They’re cousins.”
Yeah, like that explained it all.
Of course it could have been worse.
It could have been Larry, Darryl, and Darryl.
We got more Ama’s catering today, but I forgot to ask Jan what it was. So far we’ve had that delicious seafood and chicken pasta, then next we had beef and chicken fajitas, which we had tonight, very good, and then next up is Chicken Fried Steak.
YUM!
Brandi sent over this photo of Landon’s recent T-Ball game as he was presented the Game Ball for being very focused and doing a really good job as pitcher.
Based on what I’ve seen at other games with kids this age, I think the ‘very focused’ part means he didn’t wander off in the middle of the game to play in the dirt.
Way to Go, Landon!
Brandi also sent over this shot of Landon showing off his new winter jeans.
Tomorrow is grocery day, so I’ll head over to B/CS in the morning to take care of that and also bring back lunch. I’m going to get a few extra things to last us for 10 days this time since we won’t be getting groceries again until our day off on Saturday, the 25th.
Jan’s getting giddy again.
