A Summer Weekend

Sorry, I haven’t written in a bit. Been taking a break.

One of our neighbors had their big, annual cookout. The husband was Eric’s math teacher two years ago. He always rents one of those inflatable fun houses. Eric thinks the drawings on it are funny, and I agree.

Looks like a hardhat theme, but the black guy isn’t wearing one and he’s winking. Hmm. I think they should have gone for an all-out Village People motif. One of the faces looks sort of like a young Dubya Bush, and the other like Rock Hudson. Bizarre.

The air conditioner on Carol’s 2002 Honda CRV blew. Online there are many complaints about the same problem. We’re taking it to our trusted local independent garage, and depending on what they say we’ll call Honda of America. Loud noises and things sounding like they’re falling off indicate a defective part, and not normal wear-and-tear.

Let’s see, what else is going on? I mowed the lawn, I ran seven miles today, we went out to dinner tonight, and oh yes. I won an eBay auction recently, and I’ll be blogging about that item as soon as it comes in.
