Monday Musings: October 4, 2010

My son has been having girl troubles. There is this girl whom he likes. He told another boy about this and this boy proceeded to shout it out to the girl in carpool line a few weeks back. Since then, this particular girl has refused to speak to Munchie Boy. He's been heart broken. You needed to know this to understand the deeper significance of the after school conversation I had with my son last week.

Me: How was school today, Munchie Boy?

Munch: Well, it was both good and bad.

Me: How so?

Munch: The good part is that I asked Sally* out.

Me: What?!

Munch: Yeah, but the bad part is she said no.

Me: That is probably for the best because, after all, you're not allowed to date.

Munch: But the good part is that when I asked her if we could still be friends, she smiled and nodded her head.

Me: Well then, I guess that is, indeed, a good thing.

Munch: Yeah...and I am now considered a "player" at school.

Me: Just for asking Sally out?

Munch: Well, not exactly...I also asked an 8th grade girl out, too.

Me: *shaking my head* And?

Munch: She also said no...but SHE GAVE ME A HUG!

Munch is now considered a hero among his 6th grade classmates. One of his friends has even asked him about relationship advice. Sigh. This is all happening way too soon for my taste.

*Name changed to protect the innocence of Munch's love interest.

Bethany had a  performance this weekend. This is not her best but, considering she only had a few days notice and just received the music the morning of the performance, I think she did pretty well. Enjoy. (oh and no comments on the poor video quality please...the sun was directly in my eyes)

Dear Carolina Panthers,

A perfect start to a perfect season....a losing season, that is. 0 and 4 is unacceptable. It's unfortunate that you are not providing convincing evidence for us to keep our season tickets.

A very disappointed 5th

That's it for today's musings. I must get started on a very busy start to a very busy week. Have a great day.
