double baseball and double munchkins

got to catch both jack and charlie play baseball at my grade school alma mater – at the same time, no doubt. then had a sangria night with heather and her almost one-year-olds (well, they didn’t have any sangria, of course).

140 miles and a drive-in

order from the car doctors to drive 140ish miles on my new-used catalytic converter before coming back to get a sticker, so i took a mini road trip right over the border to vermont. then, i joined amanda, lynner and kathy (and kids, of course) at one of the last few drive-ins in massachusetts.

life is just a bowl of cherries …

got jack and charlie off the bus and then took jack to his baseball game. he pitched two outs – wham. amanda and i then picked my car up at brad’s (i have to drive 140 miles on the new catalytic converter before taking it back in for an inspection sticker – rejection never felt so good).

we each took our macbooks to the apple store. she is having HD issues, and my mousepad was wonky. her sick ‘puter had to stay overnight, but i have faith it’ll be good to go in no time.

side note: charlie’s favorite snack? maraschino cherries – ha!

how to be a kid

it’s quite simple, really. you run around like crazy in your pajamas while your mom tells you it’s way past time you got dressed. then you eat a donut or two (from the best donut shop on the planet, no doubt) … and head to the bus. side note: i had to get some work done on my car, so a visit to brad’s – the most reliable and trustworthy mechanic this side of the mississippi – was in order.

off the beaten path

who says you can never go home again? not this gal.
