Soccer, Televisions and Ramblings

I'm completely crazy with work right now. So blogging has been mostly mobile pictures I snap rushing from one place to the other. I'm exhausted!

So, it's soccer time again! Jamie is playing again and is all excited. Cassie wanted to play this year too so we signed her up. Well, we found out AT Jamie's practice that hers is RIGHT AFTER. So Tom ran back home and got shoes and shin guards and she had her practice. Would I be a bad mother if I were to say that Cassie, who is 4 and this is her first year playing, is a MUCH better soccer player than Jamie? *laugh* Poor Jamie, he's just more interested in the bugs, Cassie wants to get in there and KICK the ball. I love it! Tom and I laughed and laughed about that. So, because we were so caught off guard, we ended up just doing the "drive this way and stop somewhere that looks fast and good to eat", we figured we end up at Burger King or something. We found a new favorite burger joint! It's called Moonies Burger House and I blogged it on my Reviews Blog. Yum!

So today, I'm crazy with work and Tom is crazy with work and he walked through the living room in time to see the television CATCH FIRE. Thank goodness he was there and unplugged it and nothing was damaged, but what if we had gone to the post office and left it on? Yeowch! So, off he went to Best Buy with the gift cards I'd been collecting for my new camera and he had apparently been getting cash back for a while to help me pay for it for xmas... how sweet, but of course, we need a television. And it must be a big one because I'm blind and we watch way too many movies to deal with a 20" screen. Oh no, it must be a huge honking television.

So we have a new TV, that was already marked down that Tom got 10% off of because it was the floor model and another 5% because it doesn't have a remote (dude, we use the one that comes with the cable box!).

Anyway... so yeah. That's been my day.
