So tonight the kids and I had some excitement, but not so much in a good way. We were on our way over to R's, going around the one lane ramp from 75 over to the BA near the river, when I realize the car in front of me is swerving. Then I see a medium sized white dog holding a leg up like he's hurt, but standing up. He looks like he's probably been hit. The kids are very upset and so am I, but there's no place to stop on that curve without me getting rear ended and getting the kids killed, so we get off at 13th street and race back down near the expressway, and I park the kids on SW Blvd, scale an embankment in my platform sandals (brilliant, I know) but by the time I get up there (probably 3 minutes tops from when we saw the dog) someone else has already picked him up. I was happy to see there was no blood on the road so maybe he'll be ok and isn't hurt too bad. I have no idea how I would have gotten him back to the car anyway, but we couldn't leave him, you know?

There. In your kids' eyes you have just made up for the previous evening's stress!!

Yeah, we had a pretty good evening after that. Tonight I actually have a little money so maybe we'll go to a restaurant they like or something. If you weren't busy and are feeling better and wanted to meet us I'm sure Jack would like to see Conner. He gripes that he doesn't get to see other boys enough since most of our friends have girls.

Aw!! I wish I felt better! I would hate to inflict the evil poo-sickness upon you or the kids. We're (probably) going to Big Splash on Saturday after 4:30pm for the reduced rate.
