Ramblings of an EdMan

Been just super tired all week and down. 

It’s been nice to have The French Open this fortnight. 

I keep wondering what’s next. 

I need to make the next step.

But right now I am just totally exhausted. 

A diet of cats, sports and the armchair with frequent naps. 

Hoping to get through work tomorrow. Sleeping now will probably help. 

And looking forward to watching the Warriors tomorrow after work. DVRs are a very good thing. 

It is awfully nice on your off days to be surrounded by cats. 

Lots of napping today. 

Although Lenny’s 5:45 am wake up call is why they sleep upstairs. 

I do want to sleep in some of my days off. 

It’s a bizarre world. 

You would think terrorism is the most dangerous thing ever. 

It’s incredibly sad when it happens and incredibly overcovered.

And it accomplishes the goal of terrorists to make us more fearful. 

For instance, the most recent London attack is an out of control van and some knives. 

Out of control cars kill far more then seven people each and every day.

If you find you are getting too fearful just turn it off. Giving up civil rights for “safety” is the exact wrong thing to do. 

The world is no where near as dangerous as the media makes us fear. 

Lanna, my wife, is coming back from New Orleans today. I guess there are thunderstorms in her connecting city. 

Maybe it isn’t so bad I haven’t flown in a decade. 

I know my mom has had issues on connecting flights too. 

If she did fly into NYC directly, she probably could have had a direct flight. 

Hartford is so much easier to deal with though then driving through Fairfield County, Connecticut, Westchester County, the Bronx and Queens on either 95 or the Merritt to JFK or an airport I’ve never used LaGuardia. 

At one point, Bridgeport was a regional airport, but that’s been years and years. 

What are your flight stories? 

I had plans to leave the house today, but still in a crashing mode. 

I guess I have to so I can pick up Lanna from the airport tomorrow. 

Saturdays seem to be a short day full of sleep for me. 

As a Golden State Warriors fan, I don’t mind that game 1 of the NBA finals was a rout. 

Although I do expect more than four turnovers in game 2. 

And less turnovers from the Cleveland LeBrons, I mean Cavaliers. 

And it would be nice to see Klay Thompson’s shooting get back on track. 

Definitely one of the best things who I upgrading the cable has been watching the Golden State Warriors. Passing and hustle are fun to watch. 

Game 1 of the NBA finals finally starts in a few minutes. I have to get up at 5:15am tomorrow so I should go to bed for work soon. 

But, I did nap after work and tempted to watch at least the first half and have the rest on the DVR. 

Although I definitely do worry about spoilers for posting this. 

Besides Lenny is being adorable and warm between my legs and that is pretty awesome. 

My wife is off to New Orleans from her work for an outing this week. 

Having great food, a wonderful hotel and fun outings in the French Quarter. 

At least I have Tennis Channel to watch the French Open with the dudes. Yay? 

Super tired today after Rites of Spring. 

Lots of Squiggy time on the armchair with some Lenny too. 

I watched quite a bit of the French Open, some PTI and the first half of game 4 of the Western Conference Finals. As well as the incredibly weird episode 5 of American Gods. 

Tomorrow involves dropping off my wife for a New Orleans adventure and maybe the Mark Twain House in Hartford. I’ve been wanting to see it since we moved almost three years ago. 

It’s really nice to be home after a wet and wonderful week plus in the woods. 

The kitties seem super happy I’m home. 

And looking forward to our big pillowtop bed after the air mattress. 

My plans tomorrow include sleeping in and cat time.
