- Rooster told us a hilarious story about how a blind guy got caught up in the shoulder strap of her bag while riding on the train. Rather than remaining calm, he was flailing about and screaming bloody murder as she tried to free him. That doesn't seem so funny now that I am writing it but I was literally crying when she told us. Note: If you are blind and riding on public transportation, lighten up not everyone is out to get you. Note to self: May need to start thinking about some sensitivity training.
- Last Friday, as part of the 5th grade music curriculum, The Girl received her first musical instrument, a Recorder (you know like the Pied Piper played to woo the rats in the fairy tale.). She impressed us with a lovely rendition of Hot Cross Buns.
- Bobby regaled us with tales from his bachelor party trip to Vegas. One funny one was about how he got up in the middle of a Sports Book during the Notre Dame/Michigan Game and screamed about a great play that turned out to be a replay from the prior week's game. Apparently, the Michigan fans were extremely impressed with his show of enthusiasm.
- On Saturday, I nearly tore The Recorder (annoying piece of shit) out of The Girl's hand threw it out of the car window after hearing Hot Cross Buns for the 75th time on a road trip. She better learn a new song quick.
- Realized I have a weird hatred towards people who wear those giant fit over the glasses sunshields. They annoy the shit out of me just like the sight of Celine Dion does.
- Saw absolutely annoying guy wearing above described sunshields on the train. To top it off, he was drinking this giant keg mug which after a quick Google search it turn out is called a "Bubba Keg". I'd like to know why anyone would need a 52oz recepticle to drink out of for their own personal use.
This weekend we are making our annual pilgrimage to an away Penn State foot ball game. While getting back to State College usually isn't possible for us; every year, the Nittany Lions normally end up playing at least once within a three hour drive from here. So, we typically get to one away game a year. This time we are going to Evanston to hopefully see the Lions put some whoopass on the Northwestern Kittycats. Prior to the game there will also be the customary tailgate imbibing. I am hope to have some pictures from the festivities to post next week.
Let's Go State!

Tootaphone, It's Called a Tootaphone!
Carrot obviously is not as busy as he would like us to think. He is ditching work (11am) to attend the Cubs game. He must have PLENTY of 'down time'.
Lovingly,
