"A Day Of Mourning..."

Mourning? "But Mike", you might be saying, "who died?"

Not someone. Something.


Our beloved Dallas Cowboys, who had one of the top two greatest seasons ever, managed to end the 2007-2008 season really before it began. Now it doesn't really affect me a whole heck of a lot. Heck, how much of a part did I have in us going 13-3anyway? Not a lot, maybe...five percent? Kidding. But we all need something to root for in life. For guys, it's pretty easy.

Sports.

For some reason, I told Cari I wasn't much into sports when we first got together. But then something magical happened. The Mavericks, out of the blue, started winning their division and like the rest of the city, I got caught up. But now that I know what they do once they get to the post season *choke* I'm kind of off them. But this was going to be different. The Cowboys looked great all year and it just really sucks that just like that we have to wait until September and start it all over. There's always next year right?

Took Zach to the water gardens last week. If you're looking for unlimited running around space at reasonable rates, this would be it. Here's a few pics:


Sunglasses: $5
Camera: $200
Trying to make a 2-year old pose for picture with his dad: priceless.


Zach: "Um, Dad? I'm really getting wet over here."
Me: "Almost got the picture son...just sit there for about two more minutes."
Zach: "How will I know how long that is?"
Me: "When your skin turns a light blue, you can get down."


This is my favourite shot of us.

Got to see my friend Navid again yesterday. It's a shame he's so busy these days. Plus he's having a girl next week so any free time he had is going to be kaput. He's as close to a brother as I have in my life. Nothing against my other friend(s), but he seems to idealize the same things I do. We always have something we can talk about. That's pretty rare these days. Hopefully we can hang out again sometime.

Have my last interview on Thursday. I think the lady at the last interview said this was more of a formality then anything which is always good to hear. Never thought I'd say this but I can't wait to start working. Staying home all day is fun for a while but man it wears thin. Want to start making some real money and hopefully I can get my new camcorder. Then you'll see a show.
