I was at a free screener movie with my friends Stephen and Tim last night. The movie was “The Rocker” with Rainn Wilson. It was a bad movie with a great supporting cast and a few good lines. I wish I could recommend it, but I can’t. Anyway, before the movie started, the random guy next to me was telling his girlfriend that an Obama/Clinton ticket was guaranteed. For some reason, I couldn’t be quiet. I told him, “No way in hell!” The man retorted with, “I bet you a hundred grand,” and seemed kinda pissed that a stranger would have conflicting political views. I didn’t really want to continue the conversation at this point, but I didn’t know how to get out of it. Then Tim stepped up and threw out the best line of the evening, better than any line in the movie: “That’s a serious bet for a man at a free movie.” Burn!
Well, it looks like a month slipped by without a post. Sorry about that. Violet is doing well. Her big blue eyes are much more visible now, which is cool except for when they go crossed. And she is getting spoiled. I just hooked up the wipes warmer that Grandma LuAnn got her. I have to use dry, thin paper from a roll. Violet gets to use warmed, moist, strong wipes. It isn’t fair.
A lot has happened in the last month. Clair got to experience her first Mother’s Day. Violet went to her first recital weekend up in Chisago. I got my gallbladder removed. I think I got the raw end of that deal.
Even though the blog hasn’t been updated much, we have been taking a bunch of pictures:
