It Goes On and On

So, hello internetians. Been awhile, huh? I must say, things have been happening, I just have been negligent in posting such happenings to the world. Some of it I can't speak of to much due to possible impending litigation, but I will say this: Some people deserved to be kicked right in the ear. Very hard in the ear. Moving on to less secrety topics. . .

Big T had his first Raingutter Regatta this past weekend, in the rain. The person checking in the boats remarked that he'd never seen a modified boat before. Which makes me more certain than ever that the people in this pack don't know how to properly utilize this newfangled contraption called the interwebs. We found T's design on a scout site and set out to make it, as he felt it looked, "cool". See below:

The other Wolf in his den helpfully hid his face from the image, 

but you can see the 'regular' boat in his hand.

It seemed that others had never thought to apply the 'catamaran' style to the boats that are handed out. Or it was against the rules that nobody told us about. But I'm thinking it's less the second one, because nobody but the Webelos that Big T destroyed in the races complained. And yes, I am den leader of a two scout den. We had three but one of them quit. Which really is fine, because he didn't really want to be there anyway.

Also, in the fun stuff land of information. I went to SF two weekends in a row, which is huge for me, because I really, really don't like going to the city. (Go TEXAS!!) But the first weekend we went for Hardly Strictly Bluegrass and saw Randy Newman, Rosanne Cash, and my new fav band, The Avett Brothers. It was fun and horrible all at the same time. The music and the artists were great, but I felt like I was trudging through a homeless encampment most of the day. Way to many poser hippies there. Also a drunk, probably homeless guy wanted to fight me because he ran into the wagon I was pulling with our stuff in it, and I wouldn't give him a beer to apologize. Also, I didn't apologize anyway, if you don't see the giant red wagon with coolers and chairs in it, and you run into it? You deserve the little scrape on your ankle.

The second week was for Fleet Week, and this time we got to see the Blue Angels fly because the fog didn't come in and ruin everything. Of course, the kids could have not been less impressed by that, but I thought it was cool still. Everytime I saw them flying over the Golden Gate towards show center, I thought of 'The Rock' when they dropped the napalm on the island and blew up Alcatraz. Yes, I may have a bit of geek in me, but so what, that movie still kicks ass.

Anyway, things just keep on a-rollin' along. The web jobs are coming in a little more frequently now, so that's nice, always good to have a little extra cash. Even though not much of it is extra. These two kids are going through some clothes. At first I thought it was great to have their birthdays only 5 days apart, but now it's starting to hit me that they both run through their clothes at the same time due to their growth spurts being coordinated. And right now, they both need a lot of pants. Which for Big T isn't that big a deal. If they fit, he loves them. But Little E is 4, and she's a girl, and she's getting picky. I guess you gots to look good in preschool.

So that's it for now, I'll see you guys shortly after Halloween to show off the pics of Indiana Jones and Supergirl. Little E will be Supergirl.
