dumb questions, dumb answers

Sometimes the links at the end of the email don’t get as much traffic as the ones listed first. This one is important to me.

It seems to be a regular Friday thing lately, which really puts a kink in my socializing. On top of that, we have breakfast every Friday, and I really miss out on my burritos when I’m down there. One of the guys from the office brought a delivery around 10am, and that totally made my day. He even remembered the hot sauce. Everything has been going well w/ school for the kids and for me. I’ve only got 2 weeks left in the semester before getting a couple weeks to relax during spring break. Master College Waster is coming home from school tomorrow on his spring break, too. (I wouldn’t have picked ‘home’ for my college freshman spring break destination, but I do respect the fact that he’s already got work lined up for the week.) The other kids are getting their interim grades this week, and they’re all doing very well. Middle Master Waster is on her way to get her license back, too. I’ve been leaving work early 2x per week to help her stay focused on homework stuff, so it feels good to see that she’s staying on track. Both of the others have solid As and Bs, too so we don’t have to butt heads with them, either. I’m pretty stoked about the weekend – my birthday is Sunday, and we’ve got all sorts of goodies in the works. Nothing wild or outrageous; just looking forward to some good times with good people. I’ll be 38, I’m not shy about it, and I’m not stressed over having *another* birthday. Overall, I’m in pretty good shape considering some of the things I’ve done to myself in the past. I feel good, not for my age, but for any age. Besides, if I do the math right, being 38 means that I can chase TWO 19 year olds at a time (Mrs. Master Waster doesn't agree).
