Dungeon Hunter 4
HEY!!!! It's Eric here and I just want to talk about my favorite game, Dungeon Hunter 4 for mobile devices. I, so far, have deleted a level 13 Battleworn to make a new character. Sean has a level 8 Sentinel and I only have two character slots, if you're wondering why. I'm definitely going to make another Battleworn as my new character. Here's a picture of a Battleworn for ya.

Friday, August 30, 1996
This day forever changed my life. It was the day two of my favorite people passed away in a car accident that could have been prevented.
This is not going to be an "I'm sad. My life sucks." post. I am sad sometimes. That will never go away. My life doesn't suck, though. I have a husband and three beautiful kids that love me and I love them, and I just got promoted at my job.
This is just a warning post.
Seventeen years ago today, my mom, her friend, and my brother decided that they would drive through the night to go to visit my aunt rather than their original plan to leave the next morning after they got some sleep. My mom and brother died because the driver of the car (who lived) fell asleep at the wheel and ALMOST got the car back on the highway when she realized what had happened. She hit a guardrail. My brother, who was asleep in the backseat without a seat belt on, was thrown out the back window. My mom, who was asleep in the front passenger seat with a seat belt on, was crushed. They both died instantly.
So may people leave late at night or in the extremely early hours of the morning to go on trips, especially people with kids who want them to sleep through the long car ride because "it is so much easier and quieter that way." I am a parent and understand how this would sound better, but it is not. How would these people feel if they fell asleep at the wheel and it cause harm to one of those precious creatures that would need to be entertained if they would have just waited until morning to leave.
I have heard people laugh and joke about the times they have started to fall asleep at the wheel. It is not funny. It is not a joke. Real people have been hurt in accidents caused by people either falling asleep at the wheel or almost falling asleep at the wheel.
PLEASE, sleep before you drive!

I Love This Guy
My husband is a loving and caring man. He works overtime to help me support three beautiful, fast growing, always hungry kids. He listens to me complain and vent, no matter how big or small. He encourages Sean in his new-found interest in sports. He encourages the kids and me when it comes to school and other positive goals we have in life. Really, he does so much for this family, I can't even name it all. He asks for so little in return. How could I not love someone who selflessly and unconditionally loves all of us?
