And it's my blog, so I can.

So there.

First off, if one person asks me any version of the following questions: "Now that Colin is off, what are ya'll going to do with all the free time?" "Are y'all traveling anywhere during all of Colin's time off?" "What is Colin going to do with all his extra time now that school is done?"; if you ask me any of these, I swear, I will rip a limb from your body. Which won't be fun for either one of us, I assure you. Yes, he is done with teaching. But it is summer baseball time. If you have ever played summer ball, had a kid that played or know anyone that has played, then you know that it takes up every.minute.of.your.time. This season is worse than regular ball season. It's every single day. It's Sundays. Plus, he takes care of the baseball field. So PLEASE, for my sanity's sake, refrain from asking me what plans we have made for all of Colin's free time. Your limbs will thank you.

Second, do people in Oklahoma not learn during driving school what a double yellow line means? Folks, if you see one, it means that one lane is going one way, and the other lane is going the other way. There is an area of construction that I frequently drive through and people do not seem to understand this and they drive the same way on both sides of the double yellow line. I am going to be forced to write down license plates if this continues.

And finally, in the "Celebrities are funny because they are stupid" category, Teri Hatcher says that her daughter never threw a fit in public. Interesting. Apparently, that all happened under the nanny's care.

Speaking of stupid comments I'd like to share one. Being a foster parent and after raising a baby for 17 months and she goes back to her mother, don't ask me "isn't that hard?" OF COURSE IT IS YOU IDIOT - that's what I want to say.

Oh Emily. You make me laugh. I am hoping that 1) maybe sometimes Colin can take small helpers with him to the baseball field so that you get a break and 2) Your kids like watching ball games and/or concession stand food.
