Amazingness

So with gas prices as crazy as they are, I found it particularly amazing that I had a "perfect pump" a couple weeks ago. [for those of you who don't know what a perfect pump is, it's when you try to pump the gas to your dollar amount and stopping on the amount perfectly - without going over or needing a couple quick pumps] I nailed $20 and other pumpers at the station saw a 31 year old man say "oh yeah!" With gas being $4.53 per, the dials are spinning so fast that the degree of difficulty must be at least at a 3.9-4.1

I'm beginning to find irony in the fact that I named my son something that rhymes with 'crash', 'bash', and 'mash'. HE IS INTO EVERYTHING! - and usually head first. There is a constant bruise on his forehead which makes me think it's going to: A) take a long time learning his times-tables, or B) be the toughest skull this side of the Mississippi. Maybe both.

Leah's dad turned 60 today. Big time. Kaed turns 7 in Sept. You know how when you're a kid (or have kids) birthday parties are themed? With Kaed and Dash, we've had Cars, Spiderman, Shrek and others. My question is 'why doesn't continue when you're older?' But associate it with the number of your age. For example, next year, Leah's dad could have a Roger Maris themed birthday (*61). Next year I could have Charles Barkley (for the Sixers) or an FDR/stock market crash/Great Depression theme (32). Sounds fun huh?

Our concrete has been poured and the framing starts this week. Now for the fun part!
