Worked at SAIC all day. Lesa was in the office. The kids went to school and had cross country practice at the middle school after. Ashley asked to skip cross country practice, told her it was okay, and she came home on the bus. Lesa opted to let Bruce go to Kid Zone just in case she changed her mind during the day. Lesa picked up everyone but Ashley on her way home and got Bruce from Kid Zone as well. I went from SAIC to KFC to get some dinner and then home and tried to meet Ashley but she was already home by the time I got there. Lesa and I had already discussed going to the game and thus the KFC but the kids didn’t know that so they pressured me into taking the kids to the Eastern Greene Middle School football game at the high school tonight – ploys like we’ve never been tio a real football game, it’s their first game, all our friends will be there, we’ll get extra points if we’re in the cheer section, and downright begging “Please, pretty please, can we go?” That’s why we have KFC for dinner tonight so we can go to the game. In the end Lesa and Dwyane didn’t want to go so I took Dillan, Ashley and Bruce. Well, they still haven’t seen a real football game – Eastern lost 30-0. They definitely hooked up with friends and spent half the game in the cheer section leaving Bruce and me by ourselves. It was like a Cincinnati Christian Church convention – we saw at least 10 families from church at the game. We got home at a reasonable time and then Ashley let us know she had homework! Better get to it! Eventually we got all the kids into bed.
