- What a
day...
-
-
- The anniversary of
us meeting randomly at Starbucks will happen every
year... but George Wendt won't be at The GolfKon Bar
nor will the final debate be the same day. Doesn't get
more memorable than that.
-
- So we barely made
it to Starbucks this time. We had to go early in the
morning during rush hour before dropping Vienna off at
school. Something that already requires quite a bit of
work to pull off on time... but it was the only time
all 4 of us could be there. That's when it occurred to
me that time is indeed slipping away: fairly soon,
this will just be the two of us. Granted, soon is over
a decade, but I remember a decade ago, and it
doesn't feel like that long. It's not like the kid's
schedules will suddenly LIGHTEN. We're entering the
crazy stage of scheduling that will continue to make
moments like this difficult - but for the 7th straight
time, Talya and I were at this Starbucks... the last 3
with our entire family.
-
- It's funny, the
moment means so much more to us in retrospect. It was
nuts trying to pull this off - the kids were crazy as
usual and were suddenly picky about breakfast food?
WHAT? So they ate cookies for breakfasy. (sigh) But we
did it. Whew...
-
- Of course after
school was George taping his bit for GolfKon and I'm
just now loading all of that footage. I mean... I
can't even process that all happened today. Hillary
really and truly knocked it out of the park tonight -
finally hitting Trump back with a surprisingly
offensive performance. I figured defense was
enough and she really stepped up. I still expect
things to be closer to Obama's 2012 win than his 2008
win, but at this point I no longer care if it's
close, I just want it to be over and for Trump to
be a footnote. His supporters however, are here to
stay... I really do think it's gonna come down to a
civil war. So be it. There are so clearly two
different Americas. I think we'd all rather draw a
line and raise our families how we see fit.
