The decades fly by
Yesterday was Maverick's birthday. He has managed to survive his first decade on this Earth and has turned 10. It's hard to believe it's been 10 years. They go so quickly.
We celebrated with Maverick by taking him to a baseball game. The Rochester Red Wings beat the Norfolk Tides. Yeah! We had box seats provided by the Wife's employer so we were about six rows back from the field by the visitor dugout. Awesome seats. And at the end of the game there were fireworks. Awesome way to celebrate a birthday.
We also paid to have Maverick's name put up on the diamond vision screen during the seventh inning stretch. It was funny cause during the sixth inning he remarked that they never put the names of those with birthday's on the board any more. He was quite happy to see his name in lights.
The most amusing moment of the night was the call the Wife got on her cell phone. She didn't recognize the incoming number and the caller left a voice mail. When she checked it, a woman named Stacy was calling to remind Joe that she was breaking up with him and that he shouldn't call her any more. The best part is that the Wife's phone has a voice mail message to the effect "You have reached the Wife's cell phone. She is ignoring your call so leave a message and she might call you back" in my voice. It's a little more polite than that but pretty obvious it isn't Joe's phone. But Stacy left a message anyway, bless her heart. The three of us got much amusement out of it.
I'll be posting our adventures from the week over the next few days. We had good times on our trip and I think my car is finally fixed. Today we're having a kid party for Maverick at an indoor go cart track, so it should be wild. I'm sure I'll have more stories about it Monday. Enjoy your weekend everyone!
UPDATE: I've linked a new interesting political blog, Empires Fall. If you're anti-Bush, you'll like it. Lots of interesting stuff there. Go check it out. Obey!
