April 25 - I really should post every day--I'm getting older and it's harder to remember from one day to the next. Saturday night at 8:30 I was watching the Rangers game on TV.
April 26 - Sunday night at 8:30 I was handing some Taco Bell sauce to "J." We'd brought home dinner after our improv group practiced.
April 27 - Monday night at 8:30 I was driving home with "J" from his rehearsal for "Mother Goose, Inc." This is the TROUPE production with performances the next 2 weekends. "J" wasn't going to be in this show, because he's doing "Into the Woods" at school and that performance was also scheduled for next week. But, the school show has been postponed a few days because of several rehearsals being cancelled for one reason or another and, TROUPE suddenly needed a fill-in for one of the actors who had to have surgery on his jaw today! So, "J" got the call yesterday 30 minutes before rehearsal and he jumped in--with only 4 rehearsals before opening night!
April 28 - Tuesday night at 8:30, again, I was driving "J" home from rehearsal--this might be a recurring theme!

April 20 - 22
Monday April 20 - Monday night at 8:30 I was at the ballpark. Tonight was my night as "board member on duty" which just means someone to be the authority figure in case anything unusual comes up. I did actually have to handle a question about a protest in one of the softball games. Everyone was very civil and it was handled quietly!
Tuesday April 21 - Again, tonight at 8:30 I was at the ballpark. "B" and I had a game which we won in dramatic, come-from-behind fashion in the last inning!
Wednesday April 22 - Tonight at 8:30 "J" and I were on our way home from church. We were a little bit later than normal leaving because he needed to search in the teachers' workroom for some supplies for the class he's teaching (prepping for next week). He volunteered to teach the 4-5's (I think that's the right age) class for a couple of weeks while the regular teacher recovers from surgery. He's always been very good with the kids this age and they seem to respond to him.

April 19
Sunday April 19 - at 8:30 tonight I was sitting in Taco Bell having dinner with Jenny and the kids. We were later than usual leaving church because we stayed after for the kids to get their awards from LTC, and the drama and chorus performed for the congregation.

April 18
That last post should have been titled "April 15-17" since it would have been a little difficult for me to post this morning about what I'm doing tonight--although it really could've worked out today, since I knew already the Aggie baseball team was playing tonight.
So, it's 8:30 on Saturday night and I'm watching the Aggies BTHO Nebraska. The Ags just scored 8 runs in the bottom of the 6th inning to take a 10-1 lead! WHOOP!!

Wednesday April 15 - Tax Day! No stress for me this year--filed in February and the refund was spent long ago. Anyway, at 8:30 tonight I was sitting at a red light at University and the bypass. After church I had stopped at the bank and pet store (needed a new tether for Angel) and was on my way home.
Thursday April 16 - Jenny's birthday! Johnny Carino's was the choice for the birthday dinner. We ate kind of early (it's a school night, after all) so at 8:30 I was already home and watching CSI. We don't watch this series regularly, but we'd seen the ads during the previous week--the murder took place at an "Astro Quest" convention. Lots of cheesy Star Trek references, including "He's dead, Jim" and "the guy in the red shirt always dies."
Friday April 17 I'm home alone again this weekend. Jenny and the kids went to visit Poppa and Gee-gee and I didn't want to be stuck in the car for the 3-hour plus (especially "plus" due to the weather we had) trip. At 8:30 I was watching the Rangers game on the muted TV while listening to the Aggie baseball game on the radio. I can do that with no other humans in the house!

April 8 - 14
OK, I've missed a lot of days this last week. I've been having some back and leg pain that didn't let me sit for very long, so I just haven't been on the computer at all. It's tough when I have a job sitting in front of a bank of computers at my desk all day. I can tell I'm on the mend now, though.
So, here's what I can remember from the last few days--what I was doing at 8:30:
Wed the 8th, I was either driving home from church or had just gotten home.
Thu the 9th, I was at the ballpark (big surprise this time of year!). B and I had an early game, then I was umpiring the late game.
Fri the 10th, I was in bed reading and/or watching tv. I had bailed on going to Houston and stayed home while Jenny and the kids made the trip. I couldn't imagine sitting in the car for an hour and a half--I figured I'd be passed out from the pain before we got to Navasota.
Sat the 11th I don't remember.
Sun the 12th I was watching The Amazing Race.
Mon the 13th the new Bob Saget series, Surviving Suburbia. It had some good laughs.
Tue the 14th I'm watching the Rangers-Orioles game.

April 4 - 7
OK, time to catch up on my posts....
Saturday at 8:30 AM I was busy at the ballpark getting ready for Opening Day! At 8:30 PM I was at On the Border having dinner with my lovely wife. I'm sure the "fajita chicken con queso" took a couple of months off the useful life of at least one vital body organ--but chicken is good for you, right?. After dinner we saw the Nicolas Cage movie "Knowing." It would have been better if I had left about 15 minutes early and made up my own ending.
Sunday at 8:30 I was driving home with J from TROUPE. We had a practice session for Oxymorons, our improv group.
Monday at 8:30 I was at home watching 24 with B. The rest of the family was in the other room, watching Heroes--which I will watch recorded later in the week.
Tuesday at 8:30 I was umpiring a Little League softball game. This was not planned--B and I had a game at 6:00 and one of the umpires for the next game wasn't there. Jenny had already left for home; I had to call her to come back up there and get B so I could stay.

April 3
Friday night at 8:30, I was just about to pull into the driveway with Bess. We were on our way home from softball practice (opening day tomorrow!) and had stopped at Subway for dinner.

April 2
Thursday night at 8:30; I'm watching the final episode of E.R. This show has been around longer than my children. I actually stopped watching for almost a year after Mark Green died--I'm still mad they did that! Oh, well, now I'll have an extra hour every Thursday....

April 1
I have not pulled off a single April Fools gag today. The only person who got me was a child at church tonight who walked up to me and pointed toward the top of my head and said "There's something on your head." Naturally, I reached up to try to discover what was on my head....
Anyway, at 8:30 tonight I had just gotten home from church and was watching the last inning of the Aggie softball game vs t.u. Unfortunately, the final score was not in our favor.
