This Just in: BB Signs Deal with Satan

Yeah yeah yeah... I've put up a Myspace site.

I get asked all the flippin' time whether I'm going to. So... boom, here you go: http://www.myspace.com/bbami

It'll probably sit as dormant as my doggone baseball blog.

Good day here, but man, I slept until nearly 11am! Wow. BB was plumb tuckered out.

***

Had a really good farewell lunch with some buddies from the TxWes counseling program today. Sarah Beth's moving to Chicago... I'd say lunch went about perfectly, save for the part where I danced the lambada on the table.

Wait... that didn't really happen. Must've been one of those freaky dreams I keep having.

SB is a sweetheart though, someone we'll all miss.

Speaking of dreams: I dreamed last night that I was flying in a mall somewhere, and every time I passed over someone I yelled "booger!" at them and laughed like crazy.

***

THEBOY and THEGIRL had a good time playing in the sprinkler this evening. That boy though... he can shriek like no one's business. It had been a while since we'd had a taste of the full destructive power of his voice... I've never heard a louder human.

In the early days of my frazzled parenthood I fully expected to meet kindred souls, to encounter other families who had a kid with such bullhorn voice, that kind of instrument that can shred your defenses and make you chuck logic out the window.

Never happened. Not once.

As a toddler he once pitched a fit so loud that neighbors called the cops on us. Folks, we live in a HOUSE, not an apartment. From some other house in the neighborhood (I suspect the people behind us) the sound was so insanely loud that 911 got called.

Kelli was rather upset about it. And I can understand why: Somewhere in some record-keeping system/databank is mention of police having had to come here because someone suspected something awful was happening to one of our kids.

Nope... 'twas just the unearthly rage of a toddler with equally terrifying pipes.

Dang it's late... I'd better give this up. Ya'll be good.

myspace can be rather addictive if you know a lot of people on there. it's the ultimate stalking tool. if it weren't for myspace, i'd have no way of knowing that my best friend from junior high who told me i was going to hell for not being christian is now doing borderline schoolgirl porn. thank you, myspace!

I got a MySpace account a while back so I could reply to message from that origin. My page also lies dormant, except when people send me messages.

I can see the appeal for bands, etc., though. You've got a webpage template right there, can throw up samples and have more personal contact with fans if you choose. I've noticed some film companies are putting up pages for their latest projects as well.

I opened up an account a few months ago, but haven't messed with it since I opened it. I still get messages here and there, but I delete them without even reading them.
