bejeebers

We had a good weekend. Having no class on Saturday morning was a strange feeling.

(“But BB, you never have class, so why was Saturday morning so…” yeah yeah yeah, ha ha)

***

Kelli did get her paper done while in Corsicana, somehow. Turned it in Friday afternoon.

***

I attended the KTVT holiday soiree solo, since in our frantic rush to, well, get THROUGH last week we didn’t think to get a sitter until about 5pm Saturday.

The party was nice for sure, held at the Wyndham Anatole. I managed to spend three hours eating and chatting with coworkers. Once the dancing and drinkin’ seemed to be getting underway in earnest I took off. Worked out pretty well.

***

No idea when I’ll get my fall grades. Since the official due date for one of the projects wasn’t really until today, I guess it won’t be that soon.

***

Had a decent five-mile run yesterday morning, though I pulled the bejeebers out of my calf in the process. Just over a month until the race, and this feels like bad timing. I need to be increasing my distance at this point, not hobbling around like I am. Dang dang dang.

***

We slept a lot over the weekend. I slept well, but I now feel pretty wiped out again.

Write to me. Tell me something good.

Here is something heartwarming to any dad, especially a monument to bookworms around the globe like yourself.

I wandered past my 6 1/2 year old son's room this weekend and he'd cleaned it up without me asking and was sprawled on his floor reading a Junie B. Jones book...I believe it was "Cheater Pants". This isn't one of those books with big words, or fuzzy caterpillers to touch...it is real words in smallish print with a plot. And he wasn't reading from memory...it was legit.

Amazing. Is there any hurdle in life more significant than the line between being able to read well or hardly being able to read at all?

My boy has skills. And it's mind-blowing to think about it.

Also, he has been entertaining the world with his dead-on impersonation of Snoopy (imitating the animal kingdom) in A Charlie Brown Christmas. Can you be a sheep? A cow? A penguin? Classic stuff.

Aaron really seems to enjoy his martial arts class. He is even starting to show me some moves and knows some commands. And he looks cute in his pint-sized uniform too.

My company gave every employee $150 for meeting this year's deliverables on time. And I mean every employee in all of North America, not just here in Austin.

I'm so thankful for you and love you so much, and you have given me two beautiful children.

Oh, and tell your wife I said hi.
