Today, Today, Today, Today (Is My Birthday)
I’m sitting here, watching Law and Order. It’s hard to concentrate, but I owe myself a blog post. Susie beside me, trying to relax. She thinks it’s impressive I can write and watch tv at the same time. I’ll let you be the judge of my delusion.
Burning the candle at both ends, I am. I slept all day today, with the exception of getting up for breakfast at Sapodilla with the boys. Today’s topic of conversation: I don’t remember it all, but I’m sure it spanned current events, what we’re all up to, Harvey’s and the Canada Line, and when we’re going to watch Battlestar Galactica’s 4th season.
Our home, which I told you was up for sale, has been sold. It was on the market for a grand total of zero days. Basically, the new owner walked by, and saw the For Sale sign on our lawn, and before the house was even listed with MLS, he bought it. I don’t know for how much.
We met the new owner here in our dining room, and his name is Mr. Wu or Woo or Whuuuu or some such. He wants us to keep living in the house, everything exactly as it was before the house sold, for at least a year or so. So that’s a relief.
We had Ultimate practice yesterday for my Fall team, Discs N’ Roses. It’s an East Van Halen spinoff; I’m the captain and I’m a little freaked out because the roster is still fluid and the games are just two weeks away, and there are still people I haven’t even yet met. I’m looking forward to starting; I’ll know on the 12th who’s actually in and who’s out.
Last night I went to a Canadians baseball game, again with the Rovers. It’s basically an annual thing. Susie was out with Mandy and I rode my bike over to the stadium. The game was great—first time I’ve ever seen a grand slam home run in my life—and the fireworks after the show were pretty exciting, especially the one that fell over and started shooting burning fireballs into the stadium wall. Seriously. Awesome and scary!
OK, I’m off to attack some starred items in my Gmail folder. G’Night!
