Shot a shotgun (had done rifles before, but never a shotgun)
Turned 32
Went to Houston and got a behind the scenes tour of NASA as part of a business trip. Got to go to Mission Control and the NBL and everything -- it was AWESOME. Top picture is the shuttle cargo bay tester at the Neutral Buoyancy Lab (NBL) in Houston. Very cool. It just make me want to put on a dive suit and jump in, perfect time to use my dive skills. Also got to see the current Mission Control Rooms and also sit at the Flight Director's desk in the old Apollo era Mission Control. 
The rotary phone controls were the best part -- it just doesn't seem technologically right that they had rotary phones and put a man on the moon. Took some great pictures and got some keepsakes from the people there. Really sad that the shuttle program is nearing it's end, can't imagine what is going to happen to all of those people and that infrastructure.Sat on a delayed plane for three hours. Thank you Texas weather. Happy to say that that was a first.
Some sweet friends of ours threw us a Taco Shower (as a follow-up to April's Beer and Bacon) it was a bunch of fun.
Signed up for a youtube account. Never thought it was really necessary, but it is quite fun when you get into it.
Got drunk with a friend the other night and bought a pole dancing classes (Groupon on iPhone is dangerous - it should probably require a breathalyzer to operate), so hopefully I won't permanently damage myself and still be able to update you at the close of June.
