For the same reason that my dad refuses to even acknowledge that his memory is going?  Ignorance is bliss.

So much energy and hostility is used up b!tching about what should have happened instead of just making the change - which in all honesty, is like a 15 minute task - but we will spend an hour getting yelled at or "blame-storming".




Dude, I told you so.

Woot woot! YOu bringing a strapper? I'm going to need someone to hang out with while Monica's out on the bike!

i might volunteer there if i have nothing better to do.  but i'm not cool so...eh.  am i going to get to meet you kiddos in chicago??

Yes you will meet us in Chicago as we will PROBABLY be here. That is unless you're Brad and then I suddenly fall ill. And why not just come down to Wilmington and hang out?

 

i think lisac should go to chicago too cause her sister is running the marathon so she should come support her.  and me. 

i probably will if the weather doesn't suck and possibly can convince someone to come with me...although i've done the drive alone many many times.

I'm thinking about strapping Chicago marathon!
We just got Southwest Airlines and that's one of the 3 places they are flying direct. WOOT. 

 

I need an interpreter... .what iz a 'strapper' now that I'm realizing it isn't a misspelled stripper.

You men and your constant need to solve everything! Sometimes all people need is for you to listen, understand their anguish, and be sympathetic. Sentences like "Wow, the bastard", "must be so hard for you", and the eternal favorite "he did what?" are always useful.

That's right.  I saw one commercial about this the other week.  Made by the same group that makes Uncharted so it was on my list to strongly consider.  I forgot all about it though.

If it's out, I may pick it up on the way home.  I haven't turned on the PS3 in months - not feeling it and I'm SO close to finishing a couple games and scary to say, barely started CoD black ops 2.  Don't feel the urge.

Good morning, TAN!!

 

Had a fantastic night last night with the lady friend.  The part of Cleveland where all of the museums are is called Wade Park Oval, and on Wednesday nights in the summer they have a little mini-festival up there with music & food (and sometimes outdoor movies) and people just plopping down in this huge open green space enjoying the sounds and music while kids run around all over the place.

Unfortunately, because of a late evening doing that, I only got a very, very short bike ride in last night... but I'll make up for that soon enough.
