Since I have this really awesome tool with Wordpress that allows me to post date my blog entries, while you’re reading this I’ll be thousands of feet in the sky on my broom in an airplane, on my way to San Francisco for BlogHer ‘08.
I’ll probably be sick to my stomach from turbulence while on the first tiny plane out of CWA, and then I switch over to the big fancy plane in Minneapolis-St. Paul. Wish me luck. I definitely, absolutely need it. Four and half long hours on a plane. Ugh.
So, while I’m having a nervous breakdown panic attack, head on over to the Imperfect Parent where I’m discussing how to get along with difficult co-workers. Leave a comment for me there because that way I’ll have something to look forward to when the plane lands, safely, in that city by the bay.
Stay tuned from more updates and photos and perhaps a video or two. And if you haven’t already, add me to twitter so you can keep up with my bad self. Hasta la vista, baby.
You may have noticed the The Savvy Source widget in the right sidebar of this blog (beneath BlogHer Ads), and I’m sure you’re wondering, what on Earth is that thing? I’m happy to tell you it’s a brilliant quiz that aims to help parents assess their children’s language skills. From the website:
The Savvy Quiz is adapted from The Core Knowledge Foundation’sPreschool Sequence, a comprehensive outline of the way young children develop knowledge and skills. Since preschool-age children often spend most of their time at home rather than school, The Savvy Source has adapted the Preschool Sequence for the benefit of parents and other care-givers.
Beware, he gets a little loud at the end. I think he’s actually happy to see me go, considering he stayed overnight at my parents’ house this last weekend and refused to come home yesterday. Don’t be surprised if he decides to move in with Nana & Papa.
HATTIESBURG, Miss. — Three days after a conference call with Packers team officials in which quarterback Brett Favre emphatically expressed his desire to play in 2008, Favre on Friday formally asked by letter for his unconditional contractual release, sources close to Favre and the team said.
The letter was sent by Favre’s agent, James “Bus” Cook, via overnight mail on Thursday and arrived at the Packers facility Friday morning.
Cook, on behalf of Favre, expressed a desire to have an amicable parting, as the Packers have been reluctant to embrace his return. Favre announced his retirement in early March.
Brett…why? Why would you want to leave your loyal fans behind? Why would you ever want to leave the team that loves you so much?
I’m crying all over again. Over football. I’ve cried about football before, but this situation breaks my heart.
Coach McCarthy, I know the choice is yours, but I think the franchise needs to reinstate Favre. If only to protect our interests. And what about the retirement ceremony for Favre’s number 4? Will this still go on if he is released from the Packers?
