Thoughts on the Day

  • I think we’ve turned a corner with Boo.  He sat through a haircut without parental supervision, which is something completely new.
  • Boo also sat quietly while waiting for said haircut, reading a children’s’ magazine, and singing “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheep” to himself.
    • Yeah, I’m going to have to claim this one.  There’s no doubt he sprang from my loins.
  • I had to explain to Boo that there is no goalkeeping in putt-putt golf, and he is not allowed to hip check me as I walk past him to take a shot at the hole.
  • I got a couple of looks from other parents when one of the JROTC cadets asked me if it she was supposed to take charge and get her fellow cadets to clean up after their car wash, and I told her to “unleash hell”.
  • You know, volunteering is one thing.  But to volunteer to pour glasses of beer for 4000 people at a fundraiser at the zoo, while on call for work and therefore forbidden to drink any of said beer, is going above and beyond.
    • Once I pass off the pager, I’m going to try a sampler of Belgian beers just to satisfy my curiosity.
