The House Dad - by Jonathan Rosen

Anniversary Parties and Survivor

May 11th 2007 14:36
Happy Friday,
Hope everyone is well. I must start with Survivor today. I always say this and never do, but I have to apply for that show one day. There have got to be some of the stupidest people on that show. How Dreamz is still on the show amazes me. This guy has no plan in the game. No strategy whatsoever and just doesn't seem that bright. Unless, he's a genius that is playing the role of a lifetime and is fooling everyone. I just can't imagine how he got this far. I guess G-d helps those that don't know any better. Watch him win this thing. If I got on that show, I have a feeling that I would be outsmarting myself and get voted out right away. I like the Amazing Race so much more, although this season really stunk. I was rooting big time for Danny and Oswald and once they were eliminated, I hated all the other teams. Each one was worse than the last. I really lost interest in the whole finale, but I don't like All-star editions of any show anyway. But, I would love to be on it, so if any casting directors ever read this...

Here comes the big groan from readers, time to talk about my book. Still awaiting the next chapters from the editor that I hired to see what's up. In the meantime, I mentioned previously that my wife's cousin has already written something and has submitted it to agents. She' probably a step or two ahead of me. Spoke to her last night and she is a sweet person but her book is filled with bleakness and sex. My wife's mouth dropped open and couldn't believe that her cousin had this type of imagination in her, but it's always the quiet ones. She is still awaiting word from her agent and I am pulling hard for her to make it, one, because she is a good person and wants this and two, because then I'll have a big contact for myself. So, c'mon already...

This weekend is tough. Tonight we have closing ceremonies for my daughter's softball team, where they get their trophies and pictures that they ordered. Two problems about tonight though, well, actually three. First, we always have a big family meal on Friday nights, no exceptions, so my mother is not pleased with this and I have to leave the ceremony early. Two, it is supposed to rain fiercely tonight, which would wash away the ceremonies and my daughter is looking forward to it. Third and probably most importantly, I think my mother is planning a surprise party for my tenth anniversary. I have told my wife my suspicions and she agrees. Our anniversay is not for another month, but this would be a perfect time. My mother-in-law is in, it is early so we won't suspect it. I also remember little clues, like her randomly asking about our friends' last names a few months ago. Also, she casually mentioned how I have to be at dinner tonight and checked what time I was leaving the ceremony and also that she invited a couple of friends of hers for dinner. I will let you know if I am right next post, but don't worry, I will act surprised.
Going to run now, hope everyone has a great weekend and to all the mothers out there, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
Later,
Jonathan
