No one ever said sports fandom had to be consistent.

Particularly when we're talking SEC. (The one true conference)

Oh! I Want You, how did I forget that one? Heartbreaking!

Oh, and it totally first-world problems, my neighborhood has become a traffic mess because of the World Bank meeting. There are a few streets closed off entirely, and no street parking in the entire neighborhood. Which means there are way too many cars on all the other streets, so there are cops stationed at every corner to direct traffic. So walking to class takes twice as long as it should, because there are twice as many cars going through each intersection.

Oh, and the coffee shop that has Ethiopian food at lunch time is on a blocked-off street, so I had to get Chinese food for lunch instead.

In less petty complaining, protesters were throwing bricks! Some of them tried to push through a police barrier. At least one arrest for assulting an officer. Most of the stores in Georgetown boarded up their windows for Friday night, but the thrown bricks broke a bunch of windows. Oh, and one woman got hit in the head with a brick.

I think I'm getting sick. Sniffle.

I think I'm getting sick. Sniffle

Maybe it's sympathy sickness? Both of y'all, get well soon.

(A tad blurry, but worth it for her expression)

Priceless!

Oh, and JZ, much job~ma! I got all overwhelmed with my picspam!

Aww Ellie looks so thrilled!

And I love the way Dylan winds up to flip!

How do you know my daughter? Well, I met her on the internet.

::snort!:: Poor Auntie J. It probably wouldn't have helped if you'd mislead her a bit and said you met through me -- Auntie J still remembers the days when I tried my best to get Sox in trouble.

I have a long day at the office today and I don't wanna!

Adorable little ones! Cooper ... is that for the town where the baseball hall of fame is? Go Dylan with the rolling over! Ellie's adorable, but not really a baby any more, is she?

Funny new-baby story - I knew some people who, after several years of marriage, had a baby. They had two cats, who had been part of the family for years. When it came time to bring the baby home, the mother went in first and made a fuss over the cats while daddy snuck the baby upstairs. They seemed to think they could pull the "that? we've had that for a while" act when the cats finally noticed the baby.

And DJ, I got the Hammacher Schlemmer catalogue yesterday. They have an animatronic Elvis bust - sings, moves, etc.

Cooper ... is that for the town where the baseball hall of fame is?

It's a family name, actually, but he has a little wall hanging on his door that mom made, and it says Welcome to Cooper's Town.

Gronklies, all.

I have decided that my new One True Breakfast is pumpkin butter over cream cheese on toast.

In order to make it through this morning, I will need more coffee and a couple wooden stakes.

if you'd mislead her a bit and said you met through me

did that. she wasn't mislead... & she thought d was cool. She figures anything you're doing with is A-OK.
