There I go again




It's funny, I love to travel.  I love to go to foreign lands and learn about other people.  But I hate to travel too, leaving the kids and Mel to fend for themselves.  

This time, with Mom and Dad eyeing buying a white Buick, like the rest of the Floridians, it puts a bit more pressure on Mel.  Rob's helping out this time, and that's cool.

This weekend, I had so much fun running a drop in girls lacrosse clinic. I realized how much I enjoy being on the field coaching.  It was a nice off-season treat.  

I brought the air conditioners in today.  Fall has definitely made it's presence known and now our thoughts turn to getting the boat out of the water and making skiing plans.

So, let's start the betting pool, will I:
-get stuck in an elevator?
-get in a fight with a bus driver?
-chuckle as the woman bathroom attendant brazenly cleans the urinal next to me?
-get in a flying baloney fight? (I still maintain I did not start this fight).
-mistakenly hand Hitler my fathers diary to sign?  (ok chances of that are real low)

Stay tuned for my next crazy adventure.

todays survey

Since you all have done so well with the past two surveys I've taken ( another shirt slogan for Dad and do you get full eating salad or just bored ), here is another: If you eat, say, a bag full of fortune cookies - and I am not saying I have - do they all come true or just a first/last rule? Do they all negate if you eat more than one? Anyone? Bueller?

And now we are One!!!!

Who would have thought: you would keep reading after day 3? I would keep writing after day 2? (see http://robertwmason.blogspot.com/ for reference) that you would get anything out of this? that I would get anything out of this? that I would make 250 posts into this thing..? And "get" I did. Last month, I signed my first contract for a writing position (in my free time) with a Rhode Island magazine. I used many excerpts from my blog as samples and they dug it, enough to want to pay me. I am very excited about that. A big thank you to all of you that keep reading that misadventures of my family, friends and I. The journey thus far has been fun and giving you a bird-eye view into our lives is weirdly fun. At first it was like walking around naked, now I am a full fledged nudist; so to speak. In looking back over the first year, I live like a king. Sometimes all it takes is a bit of reflection to see how good you've got it. Usually this hits me on business trips and ...

How I'll probably die

My new thing has gotten me running, yes running, the past week without complaint and without watching the clock. Unfortunately, the high-risk fringe sport will probably have Ian find me at the end of the treadmill runway, twisted, with a guitar slung from my neck. What is it you ask? Some kind of Mariachi Marathon? Close. Running while playing Guitar Hero is the greatest thing since running with my buddy Jeff. Come to think of it, that really was just running with someone calling you, "fatty" the whole time, but I digress. Running while jamming on guitar trying desperately to keep up with great hits like "American Women" and the surprisingly fitting, "Band on the run". See what I did there? Anyhow, it is freaking amazing. No longer are my eyes glued to the maddening clock. No longer am looking at data (which I seem to hate when it is counting my exercise), I am playing a game. I am a Rock God when I run. Now, I know what you are thinking. Being a...
