We had another good night of baseball at the fields up by Fort Osage High School where Albert Pujols played as a teenager. Jacob’s team (the Gorillas) beat the Queen City Outlaws 19-4. Their record is now 8-3.Jake is the kid standing on the bench at the far end of the dugout.  

 

Jill has been forcing the cat to ride with us since he was a kitten when I take her to school. Uncharacteristically for a cat, Riley now seems to enjoy the ride. The only part he has trouble with is sliding off the dashboard when I take a turn.

Here’s Michelle at Funhouse Pizza ordering one of my favorites: Mexican pizza. This culinary delight features diced tomatoes, jalapenos, and chorizo sausage. Tastes great but the heartburn is already killing me.

Here’s my dog Ollie. We went for a walk in the woods behind the house this morning. Maybe its just the time of year that causes peoples’ yards to look bad, but it seems as if many of my neighbors like to dump garbage and yard waste in their backyards. Friggin’ white trash.

Today was the second round of the playoffs for Jill’s basketball league. Jill scored one basket and made a few rebounds, but Spring Branch lost to Luff 29-7 to end the season with a record of 5-6. Here’s a picture of my dad and mom in the stands at Bridger Middle School.

I had spotty to non-existent data service from Danger and T-Mobile on my Sidekick for most of the last week, and now the built-in camera is jacked up too. There appears to be some sort of hardware defect where two cables can touch and short circuit if you put pressure on the wrong part of the bumper. I was testing the camera after getting it to work briefly this afternoon when I took this lovely picture of my messy desk. Obviously my office is in need of a good cleansing.

What’s the point of having a blog if you can’t post pictures of your pets? This is Riley the cat wondering what Lucky the goldfish might taste like.
