four x four

this is what i'm tired of this week:

1. presidential primaries: i will be thankful once the primary in ohio passes us by so i don't have to see any more ridiculous commercials of hillary saying that she can answer the red phone better than obama. seriously? this is the campaign?

2. (preemptive) brett farve worship: the retirement announcement just happened today, so it isn't ridiculous yet, but i'm getting ready for a good long line of hero-worship for the gold and green number 4. he was great, i don't dispute this. but enough is enough (or enough will be enough)

3. heidi working loads: she is subbing every day. and that's good. she likes it, and the money will be nice. but she is also working fill in shifts at american apparel a few nights a week. i can't remember the last time we watched jeopardy together. poor girl is tired from working so much (taking a nap as i type) and i don't fancy eating dinner alone.

4. the weather: sunday and monday were glorious. we walked neil (the dog), went for nice runs in our shorts and t shirts, girlled out with the 'rents and began to really get excited about the forthcoming spring. then today we have this? flood warnings from the excessive amount of rain? come on. temperature has dropped a cool 30 with sub-freezing temperatures to come. enough is enough already.

this is what i'm looking forward to this week.

1. kevin's back in town: 'nuff siad.
1a. wednesday nights with kevin. where will the next adventure be?

2. the book of galatians (bible): i'm teaching chapter 4 of the book of galatians tonight at our small group/bible study. i have been learning a lot about freedom and what it means to call God "dad." it's pretty cool.

3. the weekend: of course. each monday and tuesday i am slayed by the realization that the weekend that i spent all last week looking forward to has come and gone and i have to set my eyes upon the promises of another two-day set that can barely be seen on the horizon.

4. watching espn2 each morning (mike and mike) and seeing the scores of spring training games (baseball) pop up on the bottom line: baseball. it's almost here. that means opening day, fantasy baseball, the giants being terrible, and yelling at adam dunn from the left field bleachers all summer. glorious.
