I have been on a liquid and soft food diet for a week now. I hurt myself in a softball game, and if I ever feel like exposing how much of a complete dork I am it might make a good entry later. But the liquid diet part is the only relevant information for this entry.
So dinner lately has been a milkshake made from Dutch Chocolate Blue Bell Ice Cream, milk and some peanut butter. I am a big fan of the peanut butter chocolate combo flavor.
My son asked to help make the milk shake so we set off to making another perfect shake. After we finished I poured a bit into a small cup for him and the rest went to dad. My brother was over hanging out and had watched us make the shake. He asked his nephew “Can I have a taste of your milkshake?” And in his perfectly innocent I am cute 4 year old voice he said, “I don’t think so… it might be too yummy.”
I am a crappy poker player. A few friends got together tonight and we ended up playing hold-em with 9 players. $5 to buy in and I was the second one out. But it doesn’t really matter, I heard a voice from the lotto machine when I was getting beer on the way over to the game and I bought a ticket. I expect I will be about $1 poorer here in a few hours. UPDATE: Yep, not a single number.
On a whim I decided to start up one of these blog things I have been hearing about. I really just wanted a way to capture all the wonderful things that are happening way too quickly.
I feel like I blinked and my son is 4 and my daughter is 2. I hope to keep a diary of sorts here so that I can look back on all that has happened and maybe even show the kids some day.
The inspiration for the domain name came from trying to get both kids through a bath and into bed one night.
