My mid-kid was flipping through some of my books today, eyeballing stuff i’ve published and growing more and more curious with each turning page. It helped remind me that I keep my boys out of a great deal of my life, peeling back the layers of onion at a rate I find appropriate. Perhaps what I find appropriate isn’t the way to go. These are curious boys who deserve to know more about their pop (nope, can’t say pop and feel like I belong to this century–dad it is) and what he does when they aren’t around.
I started reading around them more–monkey see monkey do. It half-worked for the kittens when their mom attempted to train them. I figure it ought to work for the boys, but so far the 50/50 rule applies. Maybe introducing them to the writer’s life will work at that same rate or better. I’m hopeful.
Some Thoughts:
- Before long I’ll have outpaced even the Shadowrun years with this post…
- Giants and Jets and Bills remaining schedules are conducive to winning. What if these three teams wind up in the playoffs (with the latter two being AFC wildcards behind those dang Patriots)? Best FB year ever.
- What would make it better would be if Landry was traded to the Giants, giving us Cruz, Landry, Randle, and Beckham. The trade seems very unlikely, because Landry represents talent and heart, but the G-men need that 4th wide and then need a TE and maybe a few DE to be really tough.
- 99 Homes looks very interesting… or really stupid. The director, Ramin Bahrani is the real deal.
- Refs stole the game from the Lions tonight. The VP of officiating straight up admitted it.
- All day McDonalds bfast is a thing. Wait… I don’t care.
