Remember that Spanner that shows up in the works on occation?

I had today pretty much planned out and Caroline woke up with a slight fever and a very sore throat. There is strep going around her school. A couple of kids at her bus stop were out pretty much of last week with it. So we are taking her to the Doctor to make sure that she just has the sniffles. But that is all part and parcel of being a parent, the kid’s needs come first and today she needs us.

So now it doesn’t matter where you are in the country, if you have certain cable systems you can see any of the NCAA basketball tourney. Which means a lot of programming got dumped in favor of the college hoops. I will be interested to see if the ratings justify this sort of thing. I watched a bit of this and a bit of that.

I did finish Faceoff and if you are going for a body of work over the TV series, then the right person won. If you are going off the last challenge, then I think at least one other person if not two had better make-up jobs. Although the winner is great on the fine details and overall I think has a better shot of running a studio than the others (I am trying not to spoil it for those who haven’t seen the last episode so if you want to talk about it, please do so in broad strokes.)

Now I am off to re-arrange the day and figure out what we are doing with the weekend.

I am grateful for flashlights that work.

I was so sad about Sam's work, because I really liked her and her work ethic and her female-but-not-manipulating personality. I wanted her to win, but her results just really weren't up to par with the rest of the group. I would have been happy with either Connor or Tate winning, they both really proved to me the season over that they knew their stuff.

Every time I read about you and your children, I am reminded about a show that used to be on the Disney Channel when it was new (back before "TENNYBOPPERS RULE!" times) called "Just you and me, kid". It was a mommy/toddler exercise show. I never watched it, but that same flavor comes through when you post.
