Highlights. And laundry.

A volleyball match, a football game, Mass, laundry, and a new writin’ machine. That was today.

Highlights:

  • Zoe made an incredible return that caused me to scream like a caveman. I don’t know where that came from. My screaming, not her play. She plays awesome. M was pretty pleased, too. We took two of the three sets and the match. All three of us were pretty pumped after that.
  • Sitting in the football stadium of my alma mater on a gorgeous fall day watching my adorable nephew play. And then getting to see him after the game. That part was really the highlight.
  • The little boy in the pew in front of us at Mass was out of control. I had a choice: be completely annoyed or sympathize with his grandmother who was desperately trying to get him to behave and failing miserably. He was a cute kid, and when he launched his Nerf rocket about halfway through Mass I gave up trying to be annoyed. A few minutes later he scooted under the pew and was hanging out next to me, while his poor grandma tried to figure first where he want and then how to get him back. He went back under the pew. I tried to suppress the giggles. I failed.
  • Laundry. No highlights. Because laundry.
  • A new writin’ machine. Yep. M and I went to look at the laptops today and then I went back and bought one. He told me it’s my anniversary/Christmas/birthday present. I am negotiating that it’s anniversary and Christmas, but no way is it birthday. There’s a statue of limitations on gift credit. Since it’s our anniversary next week and Christmas is only two months away, I’ll go ahead and credit the writin’ machine to those. And also from here on out the official gift for 18 year anniversaries is MacBook. Not turquoise (traditional) or porcelain (modern).
