Last night I was persuaded to join some of the teachers for a drink or two after the boys' game.  I was glad that I did--I haven't been out in ages--but it meant no run yesterday.  I either have to adjust so that Friday is my day off running or just be happy if I can run at least 5 days a week.

This was a great run despite the little sleep I got.  I was tempted to add on 1/2 mile so I could be awesomer than Burt, but decided that I would let him be awesomer than me this week.

You made the right choice.

Well, not to go drinking, but, you know.

I actually did a good deed by going out drinking. I was out with a few of the young teachers, and they told me that because one of the newer teachers is intimidated by me, he didn't get hammered, which is apparently the norm when they all go out. I think it was because we met that day to start his evaluation. Ha.

But now your baby's going to get drunk because you're still nursing.

Heck, she's unsteady on her feet, sometimes she can't hold her head straight, she drools, and no one can understand what she says. I'd say she's already drunk.

You're still awesomer than Burt in my book.

Whoops, hi Burt. You're awesome.

Joe! Your book is a pop-up and only has pictures.
