Keep your (bald) head up. You're a better Dad and person than most. Maybe it was the emotion/stress of being in the ceremony that set Cal off.I couldn't sleep last night so I'm going to knock out a quick 5 miles before my 9 meeting.

For lack of anywhere better to throw this, my wife's grandmother at 94 is now finding out how to use email.
Subject: Dr.
WOW what a day. I have been trying to water my neighbor's flowers while they
are
in Italy. The wind turned the water back on me. So I changed her watering
day.
Their pool was beginning to have waves that any ocean would be proud of. It
was
kinda spooky.
I have not talked to Tom ---I did see a number of cars at his office so have
decided to wait till later. I went over there to see where this Dr. is
located-- I certainly am not impressed. Its an old one story make over bldg.
Not
at all as Jennet described. I then remembered Jennet is considered blind and
is
now using the white Cain. Also Dave came by this morning and I mentioned
that my
Dr had ask for relative or friend to be with me. He said it was not for
the hearing exam but for a witness that I was not co-horsed into buying or
entering a contract..I am getting a little nervous about this --what do you
think?? Love

I read this thing pretty religiously just never post. Much like the first mammoth WIS baseball draft, I just enjoy the read - concentrated quality and whatnot. Been out of town for a week. I usually never skip to the end, because none of it will make any sense. But I saw krista's revelation and was briefly all "wtf...this doesn't even make sense. she's still en route to Singapore" like everything is suspended until I catch up (was only thru pg ~1510). It compelled me to jump ahead to get my bearings or something.I'm sorry to hear about that, krista. We've never interacted save my recommendation to skip the pizza at Mulligan's, but you don't have to be close to hate when bad things happen to good people.guess I've finally got a black dot on this dude.

Thanks guys. I was pretty happy about this yesterday. Then Mrs. SLB calls me at 4:30 to tell me she screwed up and the Boy Scouts award ceremony was last night at Cal's school and not next Wednesday. I tell her I'll be late but I'll meet her there. I'm a good 20 minutes late and am relieved to see Scout Master's wife and assistant (my neighbors) pull up right before me. Cool, I'm not the only one late. I go in, find a seat next to Mrs. SLB & Dyl and everything is going fine. Mrs. SLB says he had a great day at school and no incidents at Boy Scouts. Great! His back was turned to us so he didn't even know I was there. About two minutes after I sat down he walks over visibly upset. I try to give him a hug but he won't have any of it. He says he has a question for Mom. Apparently there was a camping trip last Friday night while I was at the lake. My wife didn't even tell me about it. He asked if that was true and when he found out it was, and he didn't get to go, he announced he was leaving. He walked out the door, I waited a minute and then went after him. He was crying his eyes out, telling me I ruined his life (he may be in the 2nd grade but can argue at a 10th grade level) and I was a bad Dad. The ripped his yellow Boy Scout scarf off and yelled he quit. This went on for a good 10 minutes. I'm going to leave out the rest of the ugly details, but he was hysterical. We finally get him calmed down enough to get him back in the gym to graduate to the next level and he starts crying again. Every parent in the place was looking at us, particularly me, and judging. It was ####### awful. The chick neighbor Scout leader was really understanding and told him that nobody spent the night because of the hail storm and that seemed to placate him. I told her thanks and asked if she also had a big rock in her back pocket I could crawl under. She put her arm around me and said "that's what neighbors are for". The male neighbor Scout leader looked at me funny, when he would make eye contact, up until I left.I got home a few minutes before them and he came into the house as if nothing had happened. "Hey Dad! I see you got some new ties here!" I didn't yell or scream but made it very clear how it made me feel and how he was never to act like that again.I couldn't sleep last night so I'm going to knock out a quick 5 miles before my 9 meeting. Ouch. You need to get a shirt that says "I really am a good dad!".

I know I haven't posted on these boards forever and a day. But I read through GMTAN pretty religiously. Krista's thread reminded me how much I like the people here, so I will try and ease my way back in.
So, recent stuff:
1) We are buying a new house and moving. The new place is only about 8 blocks away. Still in Alexandria VA. Holy shnikies moving sucks.
2) My kids are 8 and 11. I friggen love those ages. I want to bottle them now, because I am afraid of what they will be like at 13 and 16.
3) I am applying for a new job. Application is due Monday. Holy crap, it sucks Monkey balls. I don't know how I'm going to finish it. I have to finish 7 three-page essays by Monday at midnight.
Anyway, just had to vent.

Frosty showed me a video of his kid hitting off of a tee when we were at the bar last time. I was jealous so I got one off of amazon and had the kid hit some balls off of our back deck. He started pretty strong but was soon just using the bat to push the ball off of the end of the deck to watch it fall.

Oh I did. See I'm quite stupid when it comes to fight or flight. Oh you and your 3 buddies want to fight? Bring it on!! Not sure how my genes made it this far. To backtrack a bit, when I arrived, there were a couple of wet napkins on the floor in front of my seat. I asked Mrs. SLB what the deal was and she told me Dylan kicked her iced tea over. I was a little shuked because she had a cup with a screw on lid. Anyhow, after getting Cal back inside and returning my seat. There is now a giant puddle of iced tea. Apparently Dylan kicked the cup so hard it knocked the lid off. So not only am I mortified by the recent Cal event, there is now a big spill of tea on the floor and my nitwit wife is making zero effort to clean it up. ((K4) I can feel the eyes of the other men and women in the room already beating me down like the sun on a hot summer day so I decide to clean it up. I got up and looked at every person in the room that quickly veered their eyes away as if I was the Elephant Man. Yes, I wanted to just pack it in and smoke a cig in one breath but again, I'm too stupid to back down.Keep your (bald) head up. You're a better Dad and person than most. Maybe it was the emotion/stress of being in the ceremony that set Cal off.I couldn't sleep last night so I'm going to knock out a quick 5 miles before my 9 meeting.
The camping trip in June should be interesting. Good thing I won't have to see any of them in a while. Oh wait....
I tried to explain to him that he is going camping with the Boy Scouts in TWICE in June. Once with me & once with Mrs. SLB. He wouldn't hear of it.
Something like this?

FakeMod - You're the best. Thanks.
SLB - I expect that I'm going to be living your life with JR and Yuke in a couple years. Your stories make me SO SCARED.

I submitted an e-mail to the radio station today before my meeting this morning. It didn't include any of you though but I thought it was funny. Got a vote but didn't win again. 
I'll try to get the GMTAN back in the mix.

Major T&Ps krista.
As someone days away from being single (if the stupid paperwork can just get filed), I can say that it does get better afterwards.
I should have guessed that "Falling Slowly" was not a guy. That little twist, my friend, will be talked about for years and be a part of FFA lore.

Oh yeah, Cal made a metal detector when I was at the lake. He taped a calculator to a radio, turned both the calculator and radio on, then he put it on AM and tuned it to the highest channel on the dial.
It works.

No, its a management job. The government has all sorts of crazy theories about what it takes to be a good manager, so applicants have to write-up "executive core qualification" statements describing how you are kick-### executive material. Seems largely balony to me, but I guess we all have to play the game.And I friggen HATE management. I run a small office. Last week there was a damn-near revolt because some secretaries gave Sally (a white lady having her first baby) a baby shower, but didn't give Larry (a black guy whose wife was having his second baby) a baby shower last fall when his wife had the baby. They said why does the white person get the baby shower but not the black person. Now, the correct answer, as far as I can tell, is: (1) baby showers are for first babies, and (2) the last thing that Larry wanted was to sit through a god-damm baby shower with a bunch of god-damm biddies from this office in order to collect a bunch of nick-knacks; and (3) shut your pie hole you god-damm freakshow. But no, you can't really say things like that. And I want to write a bunch of essays explaining why I want more management responsibility? Shoot me in the head.

Speaking of, one of the properties that falls under the property management company for whom I'm working is a self-storage facility. I'm working on putting together a marketing flyer for a customer appreciation event in early June and dipped into their files for logos, etc. This is their logo.
