Oh, Cardinals fan. I saw St. Louis play Cincinnati on opening day. I've made the 5 1/2 hour trip to see Reds opening day nine straight years.
We got a late start this year and got in our seats just in time for the first pitch so I missed my chance to boo McGwire during introductions.
Yeah the bloom is off the Big Mac rose....isn't it? It was sure fun to watch him back then, though. I still remember his song. I don't know what you call it but each guy had his theme song played when he came up to bat at Busch Stadium. Big Mac's was "Welcome to the Jungle"...
He called at 8 and didn't even ask to talk to the kids!?! I mean I know that's why he called but his typical intro if I answer is "Hi, are the kids still up?"
Tonight he was all about telling me the weather, he was driving in 70 mph straight winds, it was a snow storm coming!?! Then he told me he pulled into a parking lot and a giant sign from a pizza place blew over in front of him. I passed the phone to the kids, Nathan talked but then hung up on accident. I called him back so he could talk to Sydney and he tried talking to me again. I gave it to Sydney and then told him he should prob get off the phone and go take shelter!
R and I texted on/off for a couple of hours this evening. Turns out he is busy this weekend with school activities (he teaches High School and is involved in a lot of their stuff)...so I told him my 2 free nights next week and he wants to get together Wednesday...yay me! And lucky him!
Kids and I had a fun night. Nathan chipped his tooth last night so we left school at 1 for the dentist, they decided to do nothing bc it is a baby tooth with short roots ready to fall out soon...so we were done by 2:00. I took him for a shake at Sonic and then let him come home and play for 30 min before we picked up Sydney...then we played catch outside with our new gloves...Sydney rode her bike...
Thursday night is pillow fight night (Nathan likes naming each day of the week! Friday Movie Night, Milkshake Mondays, etc), we invited two neighbor kids inside and the four of them (kids and Nathan and Sydney) beat each other up with pillows while I made supper. Pretty nice day...
There is a double standard. Had a guy mentioned that your thread looked like it was gaining weight, I bet you would have had a totally different response.
BTW... You thread looks just fine in the clothes it has.
