Evenin' Posse.
Sorry for the hiatus. Saturday was a morning of helping my dad and stepmom with their portion of a neighborhood wide yard sale, hurt my back in the process, followed by keeping Mrs E from buy everyone's junk at the remainder of the neighborhood wide yard sale. I then made my trip into the closest city (Not Charlotte) for a few items for my trip to DC. Kat spent the night with my niece. My brother took the girls to "Scarowinds". The amusement park "Carowinds" turns the entire park into a haunted park. Its actually really cool, but not something that Melanie and CJ should go to. Sunday was dropping Melanie off at Sunday school, grrrrrrocery shopping, then taking Melanie and CJ to Children's Choir practice. As soon as we got home, we scarfed down some lunch and then it was time to go to the airport. Thankfully, there were no problems getting through security. Got to DC, caught the cab to the hotel on Georgetown Univ campus, and promptly ordered room service. $50 later.... no, thats not a typo. FIFTY dollars for an appetizer of wings, and a burger and fries combo. Ate the food, then stood in the shower for, literally, an hour. The heat really helped my back feel better. Woke up this morning and ordered room service for breakfast. Raisin Bran, a banana, blueberry muffin, and a glass of OJ. Anyone want to guess at the cost??? Anyone??? $20. FOR A BOWL OF CEREAL. I am SO glad I didnt have to foot the bill for the food. I wouldve been walking to McDonalds or ordering pizza or something.
After breakfast, me and a few other people that were there for the same reason were met by the guy escorting us today. He started calling names and came to mine last. He said "James....Ef...." Then he looked up. "Holy $hi+. You got called AGAIN?!?" He remembered me from my last donation. Long story short, I am in perfect health, but slightly overweight. But that part isnt new news.
The shooting at the Navy Yard in DC this morning had us on edge though. At one point, the airport was shut down. We were really close to scrambbling to find another flight home somehow. Thankfully, that wasnt needed. And again, made it through security with no problems. Big surprise considering the events of the morning.
As soon as I got home, it was time to change clothes and head to the ball field. We got home after 9:30. Kat's knee is still jacked up, but it took her trying to run to first base to convince her it wasnt better.
Now, I think its time for bed. Tomorrow will involve an 8 hour shift, followed by a game, followed by up to 8 more hours of overnight work, followed by 8 MORE hours of my regular shift, followed by another practice.
Potato ...? I dont think this was mentioned enough after this was said. Because potato ... IS sweet.
Thanks Drott. I knew you cared.
Mrs E still misses the commissary. 12pk of soda was $1.99. And the meat prices were awesome.
Lets see if I can hit the rest of it from memory....

Stretchy... are you sure the new
mod is heavy? I heard somewhere it might be.
FV.... You need one of those prebuilt buildings for a coop.
I can parallel park ok. Im not great at it, but it can be done.
Morgan, thanks for worrying, but Im ok. Just a weeeeeee bit busy. Glad to hear the bunny is getting better. And unk losing 330 pounds!?!?!? WOW.
Thats all I can remember....
Ok, off to bed. Goodnight everyone!!!
I think I need to go back to sleep. 
Something about Melanie having her game at 6:00, then Kat's game at 7:15 that Kat wont be playing in, all three of them feeling a little under the weather and they may no want to stay through the whole second game meaning I need to have a vehicle with four wheels so I can tote all the gear back home. Sounds like crazy talk to me.
