Not much has been happening lately…I’m off(ish) this week with little planned. Here’s some stuff I’ve accumulated:
I bought Bossman this shirt even though he’s not a big t-shirt person really:
BabyCat always wants to come in the bathroom with me…this is what happens when I don’t let her:
Brian assures me that Chris Perez will not be a Cleveland Indian next year, so I have decided to kick it old school and be a Tigers fan (if only I could find the 1984 World Series Tigers watch that most memorably made my 5 year old wrist break out). I went with my friend Peter to the ALCS Game 5 to watch the Tigers lose to the Red Sox in the cold/rain. Here’s an ominous weather picture from before the game.

This is the view from our seats:
Tigers lose :(
It is worth noting that I had a cold when we went to the game, but my condition did not worsen after sitting in the wet cold for hours. Because of this, I thought it necessary to go to the UT-Navy football game with my Dad on Saturday, when it was colder and wetter:
I was glad we went, as UT won in 2 overtimes, and at the end the sun was even out:
Here’s the team after their victory:
I haven’t done much in my vacation so far – I did get my fingerprints done for the master gardener volunteer program, and I cleaned the cats’ litterboxes today, which is always delightful…it’s still nice to be away from work (and my students :( of course) for a while.
