Looks like I picked a bad day to chance route 3.

File under quiet.

Nothing happening tonight. For the none of you who know what I’m talking about. I expected nothing tonight and I got it. I’m folding laundry, watching Smallville, loving my wife as she sits in the living room working late. I hate that, but I love her so what are you going to do?

My step son lost a tooth yesterday. Figuratively and literally. One of his front teeth fell out while he was at his day care. He put it in a plastic bag, put the bag in his lunch box, and proceeded to somehow lose it. Soooo, he wrote a note to the tooth fairy apologizing for losing the tooth. We’ll have to see if the Toothy lady will still pay up. I think she will. At least I hope so.

Jen and I were asking each other something tonight: Are we crazy?

Why yes, I believe we are.

The real question should be, was there ever any doubt?

Nope.

Hey, we jumped on the Red Sox bandwagon last night and what did they do? Won. What are they doing tonight? Nuking Toronto, of course.

Hey Red Sox Nation: You’re welcome.

You know that last post I made?

Nevermind.

Did I mention that Jen and I watched a Red Sox game last night? Me, the obsessed Red Sox fan dating back over 30 years hasn’t watched a full game this whole season. I just didn’t feel like there was all that much to get excited about, and then the team that wasn’t exciting was decimated with injuries and they turned into a not very exciting (more or less) minor league team.

Still… I think I might be on the wagon now. They can keep me from being interested for a while, but not for a whole season.

Go Red Sox.

I don’t get it. How do you get something like that and then not respond?

You don’t know what I’m talking about and it’s going to stay that way. I just needed a forum for venting and I chose this because barely anyone reads it.

Seriously, unless you aren’t taking the situation seriously, how can you not even respond? I don’t even mean say yes, I mean say something. Even if it’s a flat out no, or to tell us that you haven’t had a chance to take care of it and you need another day. Damn, just say something.

I’m craving ice cream. I don’t care from where, or what flavor (within reason, of course)

I just want some ice creamy goodness. Mmmmmmm ice cream.

I can’t remember where I was surfing… it must have been Flickr… but I recall once seeing a photo site or group or something that was a collection of street signs and town signs where the name was, let’s just say, riddled with multiple meanings.

Intercourse, PA. Ya know… stuff like that.

No specific reason I mention that… just saying, ya know?

**Subject Change**

Read this story.

Now I do not condone what he did. He deserved to be arrested, that is clear.

But… if you’re going to quit a job… I don’t think it’s possible to do it with any more pizazz than that. Give him thirty to forty thousand points for style.

Weirdness.

Yesterday we went to an empty parking lot to let the kids ride their bikes. It was sunny, it was hot. I put on a significant amount of sunscreen and then Jen and I sat on our cool camp chairs and watched the show, giving them occasional “missions” like ride all the way to the other end of the lot and back without stopping (turning around has been an issue).

After a short while everyone but me needed to go to the bathroom, so they all walked over to the nearest open building and did their thing. I took the opportunity to lather on another dose of SPF 1,000,000,000. We were outside for about two hours before calling it a ride and packing up.

When I got home later that night I noticed that my knees… my twice heavily sunscreened… knees were bright red and pretty badly sunburned. Figures. That is the down side of being a red head… a daywalker if you will… I get burned no matter what I do.

Fast forward to about 12:30 this morning. I had a pretty bad dream. I dreamed that all the teeth on the right side of my mouth fell out. All at once. One minute they were there, the next minute they were in a pile in my hand. Pretty disturbing. I woke up with a tooth ache on the right side of my mouth. Hmmm… do dreams come true? Hopefully not, but was that dream an actual omen? Probably not. The tooth ache was gone when I got up this morning. Strange stuff.
