Isn't he adorable?













As is this chica.

Bagger Vance

Just got done watching the golf movie, Legend of Bagger Vance. Every time I see Jack Lemmon walking toward Will Smith, I think of my grandpa and start bawling like a baby. I miss him.

Well, Damn

So, Florida has the most unprovoked shark attacks in the U.S. This bothers me on many levels. The first: I live in Florida and swim in the gulf quite often. Second, sharks are scary. I don't mean scary like the woman across the street who weighs 300 lbs. and wears pea-green hot pants scary either. I mean scary like, "Oh, shit! I'm going to die!" Seriously. Frightening.

O.K. I admit I'm stating the obvious today. Everyone knows sharks are scary. Der.

What else is going on... Well, they installed the tile in our house today AND they were about to install the cabinets when we left. It is pretty. Sadly, it is all earth tone. We kinda' went beige to play it safe. One of these days, we are going to go all out and do something wild. We'll get GREEN tile! Yes! Crazy, green tile! Then, we'll be living on the edge!

We also decided to get an outdoor pool table, a poker table for B's room and a pretty marble-top bar. Basically, the house is going to look like some sort of Man Cave. Nothing wrong with that, really.

Have a lovely Saturday, folks!

This Could Go Wrong In A Way They'll Write Movies About Someday

I'm FREE!!!!! Free to follow my dream of going back to school uninhibited by the horrible stress of actual WORK.

Yeah, I'm afraid too.

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day! I just had a long, rambling post, but the internet ate it. Now, all I can manage to do is let you all know B and I love you and hope you have a Happy Father's Day!!!

Miss ya!

Gah!

So, I'm standing at the front desk, minding my own business when Muffy and Buffy walk in the front door. Dressed in Nike's latest hot-pink tennis gear, they made their way across the dirty, office tile to me and Rosa.

"We're here to sign up for VPK..." the blond one states, trailing off as she glances around at the other clients in our waiting room who are staring at them with the same surprised look that Rosa and I have on. We don't get many clients that roll up in Lexus SUVs, well, we didn't until just recently. In January, the legislator signed a bill that would allow all Florida four-year-olds to get three hours of Pre-school a day for free. The crap thing about this bill is it only helps people like Muffy and Buffy who can drop the kiddies off at pre-school for three hours, get in their tennis lessons at the club and then pick up the kiddies and go home for lunch. It doesn't help women that have to work, cause they'd have to transport their children to Pre-school, take off work to pick them up and transport the kiddies some place else. I'm here to tell you, most work places don't let you do that.

Florida makes me sick.
