Yesterday was the longest day of the year and summer has officially started… The only bummer of my new apartment is no swimming pool.  The kids swimming was getting very strong with all the pool time we got last summer.  My favorite part of this season are the warm nights… there’s nothing like sitting out on a patio on a warm summer night (Unless you live somewhere with a lot of bugs… then you need that bug zapping light thing!)

The new car is amazing… But I have to re-train myself, I keep rolling down the window and opening the door from the outside (That’s how you had to get out of the “Busty Old Car”)  Speaking of the B.O.C., I found a way to hopefully subside some of Lucy’s sadness over getting rid of it… I pried off the emblems and printed out some photos of us with the car and made a shadowbox with them (I’ll have to take a pic and post it, it turned out pretty good) and hung it in the kids room….  Kind of like a shrine to that beat up piece of metal.

I haven’t had a chance to watch much of the summer programming yet… I’ve caught the show with Jillian from Biggest Loser (Didn’t like it) and Last Comic Standing (Like it), but that’s about it so far.  Has anyone seen the new Betty White sit-com?  Any good?

Right now kids shirts are on sale at Threadless … $9 bucks, got Lucy a shark shirt and Bing a cat shirt (They didn’t have any featuring bowling balls or golf balls).  While I’m plugging sites, Gilt has some cool kids stuff on sale too… They always have cool kids stuff, the adult stuff can be kind of pricey, and Groupon is perfect for Non-Diet Stench today with a great BBQ deal.

Farrell’s tomorrow!  Can’t wait to have a sundae… You cannot go to Farrell’s and not have a sundae!!!

I know he’s my kid, so I am a little biased… But I keep rewatching the Bing golfing video, no matter what that kid does he makes me laugh.  When I was a Michael’s getting my shadowbox I picked up some art supplies for Lucy, she is a very talented artist and is now into sketching … If she ever becomes a famous artist I will have the complete early years archive, I have hundreds of drawing and painting shoved everywhere.

I’ve always been super paranoid of this!  I can’t believe I missed this.  Beware of what you say to Rolling Stone… It may get you a quick trip to the President’s office.  What? L.A. didn’t make the list?  Has anyone seen this clown?   A 75M fixer upper.  Yeah, so? At least he’s clean.

Rock On, Jack

What the heck it was just spring a couple days ago, and today freezing… I guess I shouldn’t complain, it’ll be 100 before we know it and we’ll all want it to be cooler.

I found a couple shopping sites I like: Sample Sale sells designer clothes at great prices, the only catch is they’re only available for a limited time and MacBook Adapter sells refurbished and new MacBook accessories at discount prices, I just purchased a new power cord for $50 less than it was at Fry’s.  And as always, I recommend Threadless for cool t-shirts, Bing and I still love our “Squeeze Me” shirts!

I missed Lost last night… I’ll catch up online, even though I’m not too into the biblical twist it has taken.  Stench made me watch Dancing With The Stars last night… I stick by my theory that he is too large to watch shows like DWTS, there should be a height and weight limit for girly shows.

I’m continuing to enjoy being at the CRN, it reminds me of the old Star 98.7 days where I got to do a little bit of everything!  In fact yesterday I co-hosted the PM Show and am doing it again today!  It was fun to be back on Ustream and see all your comments.

Stench leaves for Las Vegas tonight, his new show is kind of wild should be an interesting couple days of shows.

Life is starting to return to normal for me, only took 2 years!  Well, as normal as my life ever is!

Thanks to Chris for this… A real Cleveland Steamer!!! I hope she never said “I’d give an arm to train a whale.” – Sorry, too soon?  Tony the Tiger rescued.  I will live forever!  What is wrong with people?  When hitting an Eagle in golf is bad.   Nude and crazy!

Rock on, Jack
