Well… today I taught my 17 month old daughter how to say “oh shit”. yeeeeaaah… not exactly on purpose. Here’s the situation – I’m cooking, she’s under my legs, I’m frazzled from my uber crappy day, I broke the latch on a drawer, then out it came. She promptly followed suit with her own “oh shit”. Clear as the day is long. Of course my husband laughed his butt off. I’m kept telling him not to laugh as I try not to myself. Really, all I can say is oops. Another adventure in parenting.
Saturday night was spent with some Navy peeps. We went to a going away party for one of the guys who is heading back to a ship. It was an alright time, D was playing poker while I was catching up with a few people. His old Chief was there, he is leaving next month too. He is one strange and funny guy. He was really trying to convince me and another wife that he really wasn’t a terrible mean boss man, but that the guys just made him out that way. But I tell ya, either way it doesn’t really matter. The guy was doing his job, and he could be a little rough. Oh well. But it was good to say goodbye to them both. It was a little weird too, on a personal level. This year seems to be flying by… and I cant help thinking that pretty soon we will be having our own going away party. UUhh…. I dont want to think about that.
In a good Oh Shit – Michigan State made it to the Final Four, and is playing in the National Championship game right now as I type this. Im excited and nervous for them. I’m always a State fan so its nice to root for them in a BIG game. That AND the game is here in town. Detroit is all abuzz with people. Tons of people downtown, lots of events going on. It feels good to have our city alive again, even if it is for a short time. Even if State doesn’t win, its great that they made it that far. A lot of people counted them out a long time ago. So GO STATE!
Well Im off to concentrate on the game and drink some wine.
