Seven Quick Takes

I was told I had to do these seven quick takes… Unfortunately, I used all of my ammo last week.  Hope I have something to say.

1.  On Wednesday, Jack got to eat his first vegetable in his entire life.  They were sweet potatoes.  He loved them.  On Thursday, we gave them to him again and he wasn’t as excited about them the second go around.  Still ate and swallowed, but he wasn’t so crazy… ie not grabbing Molly’s hands and forcing the spoon into his mouth like he was Wednesday.

2.  (Already running out of things to say…)  On Thursday, Molly and I are going to take a quick trip to Houston.  She has to go for business.  I just took the day off because I had a day I needed to take off.  So, we’ll drive up Wednesday evening.  Hang out on Thursday and drive back Thursday evening.  I’m nervous to see what Jack does.

3.  I tried to put Jack’s first pair of shoes on him the other day.  They didn’t fit.  His toes were all curled up inside.  It was kind of sad. 

4. Starcraft arrived one week ago today.  I have killed a lot of aliens in the past week when I could find some time.

5. It’s 10:45pm.  I never get enough sleep at night, yet I like to stay up later.  This isn’t a good combo.

6.  I hate AT&T.  We were going to have them setup a landline for our house.  We decided not to and got uVerse instead.  Well, I got a bill for the utility landline the other day.  $75.  Those jerks.  Then I got a “gift card” in the mail from them for signing up.  It’s worth $200, but I can’t get it to activate.  This doesn’t even go into the complete nightmare we had just getting the Uverse service setup.  I hate them.

7. This weekend I am playing racquetball for the first time in years… I’m really excited, but I am so out of shape right now, I’m nervous that I might actually die on the court.  I am playing with my boss and I bet he’d feel bad if I died.

John, Greg still sorta laughs at me, when Amelia's little head got too big for the smallest head holder in her carseat, I almost started crying and was like "it's the first thing she's grown out of" lol. So yeah, it's sad. I feel that sadness with you in re: to Jack's shoes.

Good luck shooting aliens and hitting a tiny ball back and forth in a small room...don't knock your boss's teeth out, he wouldn't like that probably.

Great job filling in again this week John!
Haven't seen any comments from Bozo's mom lately - what have her and Bozo been up to?
