Several things that may or may not be worthy of their own posts

Big Daddy bought the entire seven-season set of The West Wing, which came in a nice presidential-style file box. We've been cracked out on it for the past week and a half. Definitely one of my favorite shows of all-time. Probably b/c I work in Communications and I feel like I'm really getting an inside look at what my life would be if I were smart enough and ambitious enough to have worked in The White House. And if I lived in the District of Columbia.

My Kid bought his dad this HUGE "bling" on his trip. It's metal and it says, "BIG DADDY." It was an extremely thoughtful gift, in my opinion.

We're going to Chicago over the 4th of July which I am very excited about b/c I really feel the need for a vacation plus: great shopping! on Michigan Avenue! We've got tickets to a White Sox game. Did you know the White Sox play on the South Side? I pinged a friend at work who is a baseball fanatic (I once went to a Cubs game w/ him when we were in Chicago for work and he kept box scores the entire game. I've never seen anyone do that before.) (He was a sports reporter in his former life.) and I asked him "Who should I look out for at a White Sox game?" - meaning star players or whatever - and he said "THUGS."

Last night My Kid went to a movie w/ his girlfriend. When it got to be almost 10 p.m., I texted him, "R U still in the movie?" A few minutes later he was dropped off at home and I asked him how was the movie? What did you see? Does he say 'yipee kay yay motherfucker' in this one? OK, well I'm going to bed. Good night. I love you. I still had my phone upstairs w/ me and after a minute I got a text message. MY KID ACCIDENTALLY TEXTED ME INSTEAD OF HIS GIRLFRIEND. At first I thought he was sending me a sweet note to tell me how much he loved me and then I realized that his love for me wasn't really all that appropriate unless your name is Oedipus so I went back out to alert him of his mistake and maybe make fun of him a little bit.


Me: What are you doing?
Kid: Getting something to eat.
Me: And texting?
Kid: Yeah, why?
Me: Texting Bailey?
Kid: Yeah...
Me: You might want to send it again. You sent it to the wrong number.
Kid (fearfully): Did I send it to you?
Me: Yep.
Kid: OH GOD! MOM! DELETE IT!
Me: Well it was kind of sweet really...
Kid: MOOOM!!! GOD!! DELETE IT!!!!1!!!


(Hee. Also? I told him I wouldn't tell anyone so don't say anything, OK?)

Lastly, you know what I find ironic about this photo?



Sporty? Hardly Sporty at all anymore
Ginger? More like Hippy Spice.
Baby? Not a baby at all. HAVING a baby actually
Scary? Only if you think you're gonna get out of paying her child support.
But Posh? Strangely, EVEN MORE POSH THAN EVER.
