Hey Hec - did you see that Wash is going to Texas? I'm sad for us, but happy for him.
That's kind of optimal in some ways. Wash totally deserves a shot, but I don't think he'd be that compatible with Beane. Apparently Texas front office was wowed by Wash. I'm sure they like a real old school baseball guy. Not that Texeira needs much help with his fielding at first. (Michael Young, though...) I'm pretty sure the A's will go with Geren.
A Jewish friend posted this on her LJ, I thought that the Buffistas would enjoy it
I was doing a little laundry organizing today and came across a pair of Elder's underwear that she didn't take with her on her summer program. It has Hebrew writing on it and I took it to ask her dad what it says. He frowned at it for a while and said, "Tell her she can't wear this."
"OK, I know it's a bright pink thong but she's 17 years old , and I don't think at this point I'm going to tell her what kind of panties she can wear."
"Well, it's totally ungrammatical. It is supposed to say 'love me' but that is NOT the imperative."
Fuck. EM has had her tires slashed two nights in a row. Her ex has been super creepy and stalkerish since she broke things off with him. Harassing her constantly with emails and multiple voice messages in a row and basically spiraling wildly out of control. She had tried to stay in touch with his son (who is close with Emmett - an she's been a surrogate parent to A for 8 years - longer than he was with his Mom), but her ex has just been too awful and she had to break that off too.
The day before her tires were first slashed she saw him driving in her neighborhood, which is not any place he would be by accident.
She's driving to the court house now to get a restraining order.
God speed, Iva Neil. And peace to you and your hubby and his whole family, connie.
"Well, it's totally ungrammatical. It is supposed to say 'love me' but that is NOT the imperative."
HA.
It took me a couple seconds to get that.
Eep, Hec.
That's awful, Hec. Tons of ~ma to Em.
That's terrifying.
You know, I am genuinely worried about EM, but really? I really really really don't want Emmett anywhere near that kind of crazy.
God, that poor kid.
EM can likely take care of herself. David and EM can likely take care of Emmett (both with help of the SFPD). That little kid is screwed.
