We celebrated Ashlyn’s birthday this weekend with the family, Olive Garden style. We were all a little tuckered out after an afternoon of malling. Walking around the mall and navigating all those people is like walking on the sun for me. We had fun though and Ashlyn got to take care of some GARAGE credit she received for her BDay.
Last weekend the girls went to the beach. Usually I am involved in this to some capacity. They used to say “We should go to the beach this weekend” which translates “Dad can you take us to the beach?”. But this time was different. It was more like “Can we take your car to the beach?”. So they did, and it was a weird feeling of damn, they don’t need me to take them to the beach anymore!
Last night I went and saw “Disclosure Day” with Al. It was OK but I was hoping for something a little less ET if that makes sense. It came together at the end but it just took a long time to get there. I wanted to feel like I did after seeing “Fire In The Sky” and there was just too many mystical bits, if that makes sense. I did leave thinking that one day there will be some kind of “Disclosure Day” for the human race, but I am not sure it would look like this.
Oh ya, while we were at the movies the Carolina Hurricanes won the Stanley Cup. If I was at home Shan and I would have watched but I really didn’t care either way. Boring series to watch and I don’t care for either team. No fights. I would much rather see some fights than a bunch of high sticks and guys turning their backs to the boards every 5 mins. thought it was cool that Bussi changed the momentum for Carolina. Happy for Staal and Jarvis. Everyone excited for Ehlers, and I could care less. I guess that’s one way to win a cup. Could have been Marner if the coin flipped the other way. I have more respect for someone like Crosby for staying in Pittsburgh during the hard times than a Marner or Ehlers. I prefer loyalty all day.
