Today was Chloe’s school sports day. I took the day off to watch her do the beanbag races, the strange class dance thing, the mini-cricket games and the over/under race.

Then, the Dad’s race.

For the first time ever, I phoned it in. Ran at half speed just to get to the finish without pulling something or falling over.

I suck.

I’m sending an email to the state of Texas, asking that they revise their state quarter.

 

 

 

Vermont has the very best state-themed quarter.  It’s a lonely figure gathering syrup, I think.  Either that or it could be a drummer in the colonial army hanging drums on various trees.  But it looks so sad.  It really captures what it means to be alive.  You are sad, but you are always in the mood for some syrup.  Thank you Vermont.  Thanks for not putting your state bird on your quarter.

Anyone want to bet money on how Kent hurts himself with this?

I’ve got $20 on sticking a hook through his nose.

One night last summer Kent and I decided to go see Batman Begins. Heard decent reviews, Michael Caine was Alfred. It even had ninjas. We were in. Sat down with popcorn and cherry Coke. 10 minutes till the end the power goes out. We were offered 2 free tickets so we took them and later on went to see some movie that I can’t remember.

Fast forward to this summer and Batman is on HBO. Great, I can watch it on my own time. Friday night I get through almost half of the movie before I fall asleep. Last night Kent and I got through 32 minutes (I checked) before we both fell asleep. This morning I start at minute 33 and get to minute 42 before the phone begins to ring. It’s not a boring movie. I enjoy what I’ve seen immensely. The stars are not aligned.
I’m not giving up. If I can ever wrestle the remote away from Beth and Kent (who are watching ‘Mother May I Sleep with Danger’)* I’m sitting on the couch, with the phone ringers off and watching the movie to the end.

* When Beth and Kent get together they watch Lifetime made-for-tv movies. I forgot about this tendency. Ew… Tori Spelling is in it.
