Just a Blog

Well, we have moles.
I guess it's better than crabs. Ahahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahaha.
Gross. Sorry. I really want my mom to read this blog.
Will bought mole traps this weekend and planted them in the backyard. They give off these really high frequencies that are supposed to hurt the moles' ears and send them "digging" wayyyy away from our house.
I hope they dig right into Ernesto's bedroom.
Anyway, it got me thinking.
Some night I am going to wake up, and there is going to be this low dull sound of ESPN in my ear..droning on and on and it's going to make me want to dig a hole that goes far far away from here....
and then I am going to know that Will has bought a wife trap.
Dammit.
But two can play that game.
Wait until he hears Real Housewives reallllllllly quiet..
Oh I am kidding.
I love you Will.
Keegan is officially signed up for fall soccer.
And this had better be the BEST soccer he will ever be a part of..in fact, I am expecting David Beckham to show up at the rate we paid for him to participate.. Good heavens!!!  He is four years old, and I could have bought that dress for Maren at the price we had to pay for this kid to kick a soccer ball the wrong way for six weeks.
Sigh.
I am excited because he will get to play with one of his little friends and my good friend is even coaching the team which is going to be AWESOME!  I plan on calling her "Coach" all season and asking her really complicated "soccery" questions all the time.
"So are you playing a zone man to man, one on one defense tonight, or are you going to go with the ol' three on two, pop the lock, sink 'er in offense?"  What did I just say????
Ohhhh...it's going to be GREAT!
In other embarrassing news, I am completely hooked on this obscure author, Dorothy Eden.  All of her books are pretty much out of print. There are like three at the public library, so I just bought TEN of them on EBay for $13.00.  She wrote most of her books in the early 1970's jusssst about the time I was born.  The print is miniscule, and I am blind as a bat as it is, so after reading Melbury Place (sooooo Gothically and WOOOONDERFUL) I am now probably offically blind. But whooo cares???  I have ten more lovely Englishy Gothic reads to go and they all smell old, musty and who knows what library they came from? But I am thrilled thrilled thrilled!!! with my find.
Okay so I am off to bed.
Me, my old book, and hopefully noooo wife trap.
