Random Thoughts 10/6/08

• Vacation's over. Back to work.
• Oklahoma has new uniforms for their men's basketball team. Hmmm. Looks the same to me.
• Speaking of basketball, how did I miss that K-State's Michael Beasley is just as stupid as the dope-smoking KU players that were fined at an NBA program for rookies?
• Don't forget the point of view of this black minister. He's definitely NOT for Obama.
• It's great to not have the air conditioning on all of the time, but our allergies are killing us. Shannon and I both struggle quite a bit with the house open, though the kids don't seem to mind.
• Jay-rod went on vacation this week, just as I'm getting back to the office. It'll be weird not having him around. Some days we're so busy we barely have time to say hi to each other, if we see each other at all. But often we impromptu conferences on matters big and small. I'll miss that while he's gone.
• Graham is potty-training. That's six months or more earlier than the other boys. It's also taking significantly longer than the older boys, in whom a switch just seemed to flip at about three years old. Graham is taking the long way around to figuring this out; and Mom is doing more laundry because of it.
• That sure was nice of Iowa State to let the Jayhawks back in the game on my birthday! Rock Chalk!
