Deebo's Wedding Wrapup

Congratulations to Deebo. The trip to Birmingham was not kind to Nunnrey and me.

• I was supposed to fly out of Austin at the crack of dawn on Saturday connecting through Houston.  I missed my flight, and ended up going through Orlando.  Travel tip:  flights arriving/departing Orlando are full of other folks' screaming kids.
• Nunnrey, true to form, left his phone (and dignity) at some bar Saturday night.  I believe B-rad retrieved it and mailed it back to him.
• We had prearranged a cab to pick us up at 5:15am Sunday.  I slept straight through the alarms I had set on my phone, and was awoken at 5:20am by the hotel lobby letting us know our cab was waiting.  We grabbed our luggage and headed out dirty.  Here starts a disturbing trend (reference this).  Nunnrey made me ride up front with our cabby.  I don't know if the car's AC was out, or just not on, but it was kinda warm for a fella that had drank half the beer in Alabama the night before.  Anyway, the cabbie had a bunch of jokes queued up for me the entire ride to the airport.  I could have handled some silence.  At least he didn't poke me in the chest.
• On the positive side, the flights from Birmingham to Houston, and Houston to Austin & San Antonio were pretty sparse.  I guess nobody wants to wake up that early.
• I wasn't feeling quite right for the next couple of days.  I'm getting old.

In State MSU Tags, and Email Test

It seems that backtoms email notifications have recently stopped. Testing if it's working again. Here's a link to Friends of the Program mentioning MSU's license plate bragging page.

What's your name? What's your number, girl?

The Wall Street Journal had an article about stuff that happens at Wal-Mart today. One of the things they mentioned was a Mr. Ghetto video.

James Is A Daddy

As of this afternoon. I'll let him fill y'all in on the details, but mom and daughter are doing good.

Also, Deevo, there's been a change of plans. The wife and I responded that we weren't going to be able to make the wedding. While the womenfolk can't make it, Nunnrey and I bought tickets this morning and will be there. Please order extra booze.

Missed the hat trick

Kim and I found out today we are expecting a little girl in October. Looks like I missed the hat trick of 3 boys but at least she has some protection now. Looks like my new found duty is to make sure she doesn's end up on the pole. To quote Chris Rock, " I mean they don't grade fathers but if your daughter is a stripper, you f**ked up!!"

Morgan

Courtney and I welcomed our new baby girl to the world.
Morgan Kathleen, born 5/25 at 3:36 am
She weighed 7lbs 11oz and was 19.5 inches long.

We are all home now and everyone is doing great!

This one's for Talley

I seem to remember that Talley liked to mix his lemonade and kool-aide half and half at lunch and dinner at the house. I also seem to remember that he dubbed this drink the "Bloody Tampon" and while it never took off nationally like the Arnold Palmer, there was quite a big following at the Lambda house, but I reminisce. The real reason for this post is as follows:

Our neighborhood pool opened up about a week and a half ago and my wife and kids have been every day since. During one of their visits last week they met up with an neighbor who has kids the same age so the moms could talk and the kids could play. While my wife was in the pool with the kids, she questioned the neighbor as to why she wasn't getting in the water.

Her response was that she couldn't get in because she was having her period and that she had to start using pads because tampons now fall out... Why couldn't she just say that she didn't feel good? Why couldn't she say she was on her period and leave it at that? Why did she have to give the details?

I don't know if I will ever be able to look at this woman again. I am left wondering how something like this happens. Is her husband Mandingo? Maybe she is into fisting? The questions are endless.

I just hope that next time I see her I don't start laughing uncontrollably
