Hey there bro-in-law... :-)
Howz it?
Hey all!
Looooong day. My sister called me at work around 5 minutes to six to tell me that Becky had Open House at school today. I was neck-deep in payrolls and couldn't leave until they got done. I asked her what time it started and she said "Six!" Well, I knew right then that I wouldn't make it.
So, I called Becky's dad to ask if he had known about it and he said he forgot to tell me when he did her homework with her last night. I asked if he could run over and go with her and he said "I can't go! I've got bowling tonight!"
And to this day he ~still~ wonders why he's an "ex".
Poor Becky was heartbroken. Today, I truly hated my job. :-(
Lookit bittygirl go!
Watch out, Dad.....she'll be surfing at Baby Gap and buying up the place when you're not looking. ;-D
It works when I click the link under our thread title.
Not bad... having some dinner and watching The Simpsons at the moment. Jeopardy's on in 10 minutes.
Little sweethearts like Becky should not *ever* be heartbroken. That was just completely wrong.
Bowling?
Bowling?

Wow... she's pretty good at posting pictures already.
Way to teach 'em html early. :-)
Hmmmm! Long time no see, all!
How's everybody?
ROTFL!
We share the same sentiment in the "bowling" excuse.
I cannot, for the life of me, understand ~how~ bowling takes priority over Becky's Open House. I felt guilty as hell sitting in my cubicle, even though I knew I could not leave.
She's a bit sad now, but I let her visit with my sister for a while and then we checked out the new books she got at the Book Fair today. It did a lot to help her get over it, but I know it really bugged her that we didn't go. Especially because the kids decorated the classroom and stuff.
It bugs me too since I wanted to have the chance to meet with her teacher for a quick one-on-one. I wrote a note for Becky to take to class tomorrow asking the teacher to please call me when she has a moment, so at least I can have a progress report via phone. :-)
