Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My daughter's soccer team finally had their second game a few days ago after three canceled games in a row.

Looking all Goalie Like

The weather was cold and extremely windy, but they still got the game in. They lost 3-1 in an all girls vs. all boys match. Fortunately she didn't get upset about losing, they did win their first game 6-3 which probably helped in that regard. Ran into the first annoying parent at that game. He was encouraging his son to get rough and sure enough his son committed a couple of fouls, pulling on jerseys.

Her team's main problem in the match was not being aggressive enough when getting in near the opponent's goal. They'd make a kick that got the ball close and sort of let up. Well one of the girls is always aggressive, the smallest one on the team which is just sorta adorable.

Leif's team still hasn't gotten in a second time. Four games in a row have been canceled because of weather. One of the canceled games was a make-up game.

It's driving his coach crazy.

WHU?!?!? new house? and it's already fixed?

Yes. Really. Panic attack from the seller. I'm gonna be looking at certain things very closely.

Closing in a little over 24 hours. I think I'm writing the check today. Between meetings.

Work's about to blow up too. The next 6 weeks are going to be a very rough. I'm pretty sure I am in the midst of one giant panic attack. Just not the completely debilitating kind. Or something. Physically, I'm all kinds of screwed up and I've dropped maybe 8 lbs in a week, which is NOT usual. And I'm eating!

sara, I am so excited for you! (Er, not that I'm excited about potential panic attacks, but the home-owning.)
