Frankie talking about his teacher: “Of course she’s smart! She’s a teacher. She has to be smart.”
I still have some sand in my flip flops. Can I pretend it’s still summer? Just for a little bit longer?
No shower happy hour at the Springfield Inn. I really need a shower.
Mmmmmmm… She-crab soup…

Just left the Camden aquarium. They have two big, smelly hippopotamusses. The rest of the place was awful, but they made up for it.
WTF, twcable? All my channels are switched around an nobody told my TiVo. I can’t find CNN.
Apparently, I’m not allowed to dance with my son, stand next to him while he’s dancing, or even watch him dance from afar. I’m so not cool.
Niagra falls! Step by step. Slowly I turn.
The bee bit my bottom. Now my bottom is big.
I thought little boys were supposed to be able to pee in a bottle when on long car trips! Sorry, again Robin.
Frankie’s been working on his swing. Today he hit the wiffle ball so hard he gave me a fat lip.
Dominating “Kade-style” in philly.

Frank and I are on our way to Citifield. Go Mets!
I really have to do some laundry. Is it bad that I sent my kid to school in freshly made cut-offs ‘cause I couldn’t find any shorts?
My cab driver is listening to, not watching, an episode of Seinfeld. One of the ones about Festivus.
Thinkin’ about going to the highline today.
I’m at a USA v. Panama soccer game with Frank. Can’t answer any of his questions, because I don’t know anything about soccer.
Summer Friday, breakfast on the deck in Springfield, Wawa coffee, wish it could be like this all summer.
Obama needs to trade in the “dungarees” for some jeans.
Waitin’ for Wose…
Twitter, tweet, twits. It’s amazing me just how much time media companies (or the one I work for at least) spend talking about this.
Happy birthday nation! Frank and I are already celebrating with the history channel. Now i just need to find a tri-corner hat.
Heading to IKEA with Mitch and Frank. If no one hears from us in a couple of hours, assume the worst.
I feel that I need to somehow document to the internet that I’m at work a whole hour early today. It’s usually the other way around.

It figures. I’m in my way to the movies and the sun is coming out.
Went to frankie’s baseball carnival in rubber boots and a raincoat. When does summer start?
Thought I would be all sneaky at get the new phone at an AT&T store. Sold out. I guess I’m heading to the big apple cube later.
So I ordered the iphone 3Gs (for speeeeeed) to be “picked up” from a “concierge” at the “store”. What are the chances they’ll run out?
What kind of waiting room doesn’t have magazines?!?!?

Going to see UP! There’s a talking dog!!!!!
Shufflin’ off to Buffalo.
there are so many f’in mosquitos in my house!!!! I’m single-handedly supporting the DEET and calamine lotion industry.
I’m being VERY careful on the staircase down from Kelly’s roof.
Day 2 of jury duty. Day 1 of my foremanship. I will try to be a benevolent leader.
Frankie is making up songs using snippits of dialogue from Oprah. He’s been sick for two days and I think cabin fever is setting in.
Just passed Sesame Street filming on Houston. At least I think it was Sessme Street. There was a Telly Monster.
Jury duty is actually bearable with wifi access and the laptop. Of course, it’s only been an hour and a half so far. I could change my mind.
In a hallway outside the courtroom. If the lawyers arguing next to me are any indication, it’s a landlord/tenent case. I’m clearly biased.
Crap! What are the odds on the same person forced to be foreman on a jury for essentially the same case twice in a 7 year period?
Frankie tells me “That’s the tough thing about work. You do it, but you want to just relax. And play with your child.”
Must be graduation day at NYU, I saw a bunch of people with purple robes on the subway. Either that or a pep rally at Hufflepuff.
Dinner at Taco Taco with my 5 year-old started to seem like a bad idea as the place filled up and the margarita kicked in. Glad to be home.
Gotta love that baseball practice is still on in the rain. Achooo!
Finally had my first shake shack burger. It doesn’t hold a candle to Charlie’s. Same for the B&W shake.

Now that we’re at “Pandemic” level 5 - what do you think the over/under is on my dad calling to tell me not to use the subway?
My new “pear” scented deodorant actually smells like “blue cheese”.
Church is so much more enjoyable with an iPhone and decent cell signal
I love lazy mornings down the shore. Even when it’s raining.
At niagra. But it’s too early for dancing.
I gave a presentation about Viagra this morning and now I’m working on a report for HUMMER. My work life is one giant dick joke.
