Lesa worked from home, I took kids to bus stop, I went into work. It was sushi lunch and I got sushi for the kids and salmon on sale for dinner. Work sent an email about pizza lunch and happy hour at 4p after work. So, on my way home I stopped at Big Red and got some bourbon and some rye to share tomorrow. I tried to call Lesa to let her know I’d pick up Dillan from practice on my way home. Called the house. Called her cell. Called multiple times and got worried. Got to school to pick him up just in case and she was there with all the kids and the dogs and was picking up Dillan. She had taken the kids to Dollar General and had forgotten her phone. I was kind of pissed because I was worried and I had no clue where we stood on the kids, etc. Then because she “had” to pick up Dillan she decided to have Hamburger Helper for dinner. I was even more pissed because Hamburger Helper is not my idea of a good dinner. She knew I was upset so she put together some kind of Mexican thing for dinner that everyone wanted seconds of and there wasn’t enough to go around twice really so the seconds were small. Turned out well. She’s a good cook and that’s why I don’t like the boxed meals – she’s much much better than that and I’m too used to eating good. Damnit, it’s all her fault for spoiling me so! I called Tracy’s grandfather and we arranged for her to spend the night. She’s going to ride the bus home after school with Ashley, spend the night, go to practice with Ashley on Saturday, and go home with grandpas after practice. So, I haven’t had rye before. When I was buying it I actually meant to buy some 9 year old Knob Creek bourbon, and sitting right next to it was some Knob Creek rye, so I said to myself, “Self, you’ve never had a rye. You’re getting old. You’ll probably want to try a rye before you die. Now might be the time.” and so I bought them both. Anyway, like I was saying, I haven’t had rye before, so I tried a bit neat and on the rocks tonight. It is different than bourbon and when you do a taste test side-by-side it is easy to tell the difference. So I’m just a bit toasty and everyone is in bed and I have to get up so I’m going to call it a night too. Good night.
