Hello - Goodbye

Back from Steubenville San Diego and going to bed so I can wake up to catch a flight to Indiana...long letter to follow.

I Won't Dance, Don't Ask Me!

Steubenville San Diego this weekend and then off to Indiana on Monday, I travel to all the glamorous parts of the country!

So much to say

Did you know the best donut place in my town is right next to the "Curves" gym for women?

Never question when the man at Albertos (or Hermbertos, Josebertos, Sallybertos) gives you 899 napkins. You might need them when your breakfast burrito explodes onto your lap while you are driving.

If your dogs stands at the closet and barks like there is an axe wielding midget clown, there probably is and you should leave the house and never come back.

Sometimes Verizon does stop working for me.

On the show "Celebrity Fit Club" they are neither celebrities or fit.

If you give a bunch of stuff away to GoodWill, the next day you will be looking for your left handed potato peeler.

Solomon

First reading today is pretty cool. Jesse, David and Solomon seem like they could have had there own Discovery channel show, à la American Chopper.

I get it, it's hot!

Thank you news caster lady for telling me that, "boy it was a hot one today."
I KNOW!

The good thing about this hot weather we have right now in San Diego is that the water is warm! Now that the Red Tide is gone I am surfing like a crazy person until I have to get on a airplane again. The only problem I am having is transportation. The morning I left for Portland my car would not go into reverse. A week in the shop later, the transmission man found that a brand new part he had put in when he fixed my transmission in March had exploded! So I am a big dorky loser borrowing my parent’s cars until the Ford ‘Exploder’ gets out of the shop. Do you suppose there is room on the city bus for a 9 foot 6 inch surfboard?

Stay cool.

What I Learned on a 14 Hour Car Trip...

Kids will be good for short amounts of time if you bribe them.
Kids will be good for a longer amount of time if you threaten their life.

It's 4 A.M...

...do you know where your Jewd is?


Time me, I'm going to Portland...in a car...with 2 kids...under 9...not medicated!

Steve!!

Way to go Steve!
You are person of the day...
See, this is why I don't have a "person of the day" on my web site, thanks for the suggestion though.

3,2,1, Blast Off

In 3 days I will be in my sister's SUV with her and my nephews driving to Portland Oregon.
I did the math and that's 1074.6 miles.
Approximate Travel Time: 16 hours 31 min
Approximate time until nephews try to kill each other: 20 minutes 32 seconds.
I have a rosary and Holy water to sprinkle on them so I should be OK. Please let me know if I can pick you up anything in Portland, no sales tax ya know! My Notre Dame Squirrel movie is almost done, still working out some kinks, who knew it would be so hard to get the squirrels to give each other high fives. The stunt squirrel union has all sorts of rules and hoops you have to jumps through (no pun intended).
We went to the beach today but I didn't surf it was cold and cloudy and I had more fun watching my nephews boogie board in three inches of water.

SQUIRREL!

Notre Dame was awesome and I can't wait to go back.

Two airplanes later I am back in my kitchen listening to my dogs snore, life is good...Except for those darn rabid Indiana squirrels!

Naked in South Bend

OK, not really naked but the airline did lose my luggage somewhere from San Diego to Chicago. Luckily for me my friend and her husband were waiting for me at my hotel and they whisked me away to a 24 hour store to buy the necessities in life. So far I'm having a great time in Indiana! I can see the dome from my room, I have wireless internet and I saw fireflies. Did you know you can buy fireworks at the Walmart here? How cool is it that Walmarts are open 24 hours, I could have high self esteem anytime of the day or night!
Wow, good times for all.

Judy's nephews made a movie!

Proof that you should not work with animals or children!

P.S. Happy birthday to my favorite mom!
