Hello? Mama and grampa?

My parents are in Vancouver BC visiting with one of my dads oldest and best friends. The boys and I are suffering from withdrawal symptoms. It's kinda crazy how affected we (ok, ok mostly me) are. Now, I'm half kidding but half not. I talk to my mom and dad almost everyday. Maybe once during the week we'll skip a day but no more then a day at a time. Yikes. This is nuts. I haven't even got to talk about the bugs at the Indians/Yankees game the other night.

Umm....hellloooooooooooooooooo! Just 'cause you are on vacation doesn't mean I've waived the rights to my daily phone call.

Here's my random babble I would normally yap about
baseball:
can you believe that 3 of 4 teams in the divisional series' have swept? Holy moly, it's nuts. These teams are on fire! With Manny being Manny I don't know if anyone will touch the Red Sox. And the Yankees, geesh. Avoid the sweep. I guess it's a good thing, at least now they can't blame it on the bugs right?

football:
Why would you take Joey Harrington out in the 4th quarter? Come on, what kind of message does that send? After everything this team has been through these last few months, you've got to support these guys. It's not like it's been 5 weeks of getting worse, they are all just gelling. Ugh. So frustrating but on the bright side, how tough was our defense? 5 turnovers.

Willie:
we finally got a referral to a specialist. Maybe we can get off this nasty Reglan and get on something a little better. Don't have the appointment date yet but we should hear something today.

Me:
I am running a 10 minute mile now. Totally awesome. Of course I'd like to get it a little better but in less then a month I'm already running a 10 minute and I've increased my runs to 4 miles. Awesome.

My glasses broke. Man, it just stinks. I have my old ones but that prescription is ancient. Oh well, just have to deal with it for now.

J:
got the coolest cow toy on Saturday. You pull this little trigger thing by the cows butt and his mouth opens and he moos and there's a light (like a flashlight) that shines out. It's super cool and he loves it. I won't let him take it to bed wince it is bright and noisy so it's had to sleep beside our bed the last 2 nights. That kid is so funny!

Jimmy: back to work. Mondays are such a bummer. Oh well, we had a great weekend and are counting down until Friday.
