And the hits keep on Coming


To round out yesterdays good fun:
  • crashed my noggin into fiberglass while reaching into the boats cabin. Nice tender egg on my forehead.
  • Dumped 1/2 my glass of diet cherry coke onto my plate of pasta (still ate it, don't recommend it though...; yep, pulled a Grampa Phinney).
  • And as I always end my sailing adventures (or real any time I step outside): I got sunburned... Good thing I look hot in red..
  • And I still can't believe that @#$%#$% rope broke.
However, some good news. If all that had to happen to me (and Dad, which really shows true love for your kids by allowing yourself to be made a complete fool by your kids idea to launch his boat on the cheap, not in a yard which would have made way more sense...) in order to deliver a small miracle, so be it. Kavyn, my cousin Kyle's son, came through a tough surgery yesterday removing most of a tumor interconnected with his spine. Tough kid for sure, even tougher parents. I can't even fathom.

Sure makes losing a trailer to the bottom of the sea look pretty miniscule... Ah perspective.

Ian goes Punk

It, of course is my fault. You could say that about most anything. But this, this is pure genius. Yesterday, he and I were headed to get haircuts. He says, "what kind of haircut are you getting Daddy?". I give my stock answer, "mohawk". He giggles and says, "me too, we'll be twins." He is smiling ear to ear. Next comes the part where I carefully extract myself from getting said mohawk. He says, "i don't care I am getting a mohawk." I saw ok thinking Mel will never allow. She says ok.

Five minute update

Sorry, 5 is all you get today...ok at least for now. Here are the top stories from the past week: Thanksgiving. What happens when you don't see family and don't eat Turkey? Not so bad, sorry family. We had a blast watching the parade in NYC, it was a beautiful warm day. The kids and mostly Mel enjoyed the floats and balloons. We'll be back next year. You can see a slide show of the images mel took, far too many up to the right -----> Best quote at a concert, Best thing to happen to my brother in front of me, "Sir, would you buy me a beer?" -underage girl at State Radio Concert. Probably the last 18 and older show we go to. Save the security team, we were the oldest folks there... And FYI, Rob didn't buy her one, what a good guy. Then we talked about if we'll still come to these concerts if Reagan happens to go to the same one... We decided she isn't leaving the house watching some young girl crowd surf... Prickly Pear is out of the water....
