Sorry about the baseball frustrations. We have practice tonight. Almost done with the season. Games Wednesday and Thursday. Then playoffs I think. I have nothing on my schedule after Thursday.
Yay sj! Well done.
Must to find coffee.
Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Gronk. I'm trying to get my sleep schedule back under control by getting up when TCG leaves for work. I've gotten into some bad habits lately. I'm not good at this morning thing.

Trust my rage
Thing is - that was a positive at-bat for Arabelle. She scalded the ball. That's all you can control in baseball is to put a good swing on the ball. You're not in charge of whether somebody catches it. This is actually not a bad life lesson.
Baseball is really not my sport, but this really does seem like a good life lesson, particularly for kids.
My dad tells this story about my grandfather that ends with my grandfather telling his boss (when they were totally dirt poor) "You find a man who will lie for you and you've found a man who will lie to you." It's stuck in my head for years.

Everyone in our house went to bed last night at 7:40. Crazy! The left-coasters were still at work! But I guess we needed it because we all slept until 5 am this morning.

Sorry about the girl frustrations, P-C.
Sorry about the baseball frustrations, Hec.
Hmmm...there was something else. This is what I get for cheating at a meara.
Today I'm taking a semi-break from schoolwork and dealing with household stuff. The dishes have begun a life of their own, and if I don't do laundry today, well, it won't be pretty.

Thanks. Me too. Otherwise I'm going to have to start stalking the real estate guy.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
because we all slept until 5 am this morning.Hey, I did that.
Course I went to sleep just before midnight.
Why am I awake? Why am I awake after a disturbing dream that I can't remember important details of? Why am I awake with no milk in the house so I can't make coffee? Why did I end a sentence with "of" when clearly that is wrong?
I am firing my brain. Still not sure if I am getting out of bed, but I am absolutely firing my brain.

Oh, poor Cass!
How are you feeling, though? Breathing going better? Head not ready to explode?

Right now? Feel kinda great. Which actually makes the being awake less crankifying. Eyes itch but I can breathe right now.
Oh please capricious gods of lurgies, spare me today and I'll cancel that napalm I ordered, m'kay?

Oh, I'm SO glad to hear that! You sounded so miserable last night!
