He was nervous I'd be upset when I found out he bought it, I told him I thought it was awesome. He bought it with his own money that he's been making at his job, which he has now had for just over 2 months (he works at Texas Steak House). I think it's great that he has been able to reward himself, plus keep a bunch of money in the bank. (He's getting his license soon, my requirement is that he pays for his insurance). Anyways, just giving him a shout out. (The PS3 is pretty cool!)
Chris - that is AWESOME! I applaud the way you encouraged him and acknowledge his hard work! I too had a similar situation recently with a youngster that was about $20 bucks short of buying a Nintendo DS which he really wanted and although I could have spotted him the $20, we discussed it briefly and he decided to earn the money and buy the game when he had enough money! I was so proud of him and so was his mom! His Mom did a great job instilling values and I think kids are soo amazing as they remind us of things all the time, unintentionally! :-bd :-bd
Thank you for not spotting that kid the $20.
;) :-bd @};-

Did you know that if a kid has a California license, he's gotta have California insurance? \:D/
And that insurance would be ExLax's!
YES!

Next item on the agenda: Figure out how to get my other kid licensed in California. :idea:
Maybe he can get his license during the summer....

Somehow I have to get certified to dive this fall -- before Christmas break. I have no idea how I'll do that because I know for a fact I can't do one of the regular classes. Maybe I can get a private class during the weekends... Or at least the weekends I can do it during.

Why the time deadline? My guess is that DevilAlumna is the most experienced diver here, perhaps she might have some ideas?

We are going sailing in the Virgin Islands, and I really want to be able to dive by then.

Time to go check on the neighbor's cats. Glass of wine awaits my return. Gotta have some incentive to go do litterbox duty.

Sure, we need more comedy.
Ok I did. Not sure if I really should be feeding the trolls.

If he comes back all on his high horse, I'll ask him if he thinks Asack would have made a difference in the game. He is taller, after all. :twisted:
No, this time he'll mention Renfree...

Arrived home just before 9 PM with a couple detours and a stop at BK.

1. Dinner: see proper thread.
2. No, I did NOT get another "King" crown... :roll: :)) =))

I'm watching the Biography channel's show on "Different Strokes", Gary Coleman comes off as a jackass. But he admitted to being a virgin, so that might be his problem.

Somebody posted some adorable pictures of wilons at the Falcons game on Facebook. I particularly like the one with the Falcons cheerleaders.

That's it for me for the holiday weekend. I'm exhausted after drafting with YBT for the last 2 days. Dude's a machine... ;) :D
