The House Dad - by Jonathan Rosen

Stormy Thursday in S. Florida and anniversaries

June 28th 2007 15:27
Good morning everyone,
Hope everyone is well today. I live in S. Florida and it is a beautiful place to live. It feels like I'm always on vacation. Just a paradise where I look out my window and see palm trees. Then there's the summertime. I don't mind the heat at all, so that's not it. It's just that it pours every day. Usually just for an hour a day and then stops.It's like clockwork, same time every day. Except of course, hurricane season and days like today. It is just dark gray outside. It was coming down hard this morning and it is supposed to do that for the rest of the day. I guess it's good, because we have been in a drought for a while and need the rain and it certainly has been raining the past week or so. It should continue to do that for a while also. I don't care normally, but on certain days, I have softball also. I hate when it rains on those days, not because those games might get rained out, because I am one of those rare players who never cares if it gets rained out. Don't get me wrong, I like playing and coaching as I do, but I don't mind staying home and relaxing as well. The field I play on never cancels the games ahead of time. It could be a monsoon out and they'll have a message on the machine. "Gametime determination." I hate driving out there and then it gets cancelled. Once I'm out, I want to play.

Today I couldn't have played anyway.Today happens to be my 10th anniversary. I tried to tell my wife that it would be good for her to just relax and take care of the three kids while I'm out playing softball, but she wasn't buying it. I really can't believe it's been 10 years. It seems like yesterday that we first met. And they said it wouldn't last.Oh wait, actually that was just my mother-in-law that said that. I have mentioned before that we have a tough relationship. When she called to wish us congrats today, it was through gritted teeth. It always amuses me when we speak, she speaks for 5 minutes and then the conversation trails off. It's like she can't wait to get off the phone with me. Sometimes, I can't wait either and sometimes, I like to stretch it out and make her suffer. Today, I had other things to do, so I let her off the hook. Speaking of which, I do have to go. Hope everyone has a great day.

Later,
Jonathan
