Livin' the high life
Overheard late last night at our house:
Me: Hey, I set up that new inflatable pool today and Risa and the kids came over and loved it!
TubaDad: Mmm. (ignoring me and playing with the 800-button universal tv remote)
Me: It's the best twenty bucks I ever spent. You hook the hose up to it and it makes a little fountain the whole time they're in it.
TubaDad: Ahh. (still intently focusing on the remote)
Me: (yawning) Well, g'night... Oh shoot, I have to move the pool off the lawn before I go to bed!
TubaDad: (suddenly alert and snickering) Honey that sounded a little redneck.

Special Event Notice:
If you're in Santa Clara County tomorrow afternoon (Sunday) and want to see some cool antique cars, drop by the finish line of the 200-mile Speedster Endurance Run. My little bro and Dad (seen here in "Sublime") will be driving in it, and TubaDad and I will be working the finish line. (You can't miss me, I'll be the one in the haute couture orange highway worker vest.) The cars will be coming in around 2:30pm, and it's at 505 Laurelwood Rd, Santa Clara. Great fun for kids and adults. No admission charge, just park anywhere along the cross street called Woodward.
