Earl: you are such a tease.
I got nostalgic and mildly storm-chasing lunatic-ish here.
I got very nostalgic and mildly weepy here.
I remain perfectly, typically loudmouth here. Which is here.
RIGHT HERE.
As in: what is the percentage of parents, whose kids participate in Labor Day multi-state soccer tournaments, who believe their children are World Cup bound?
Take into account that THIS parent? Um....Yeah.
Wow. I had no idea.
I think I just found some serious blog fodder. Honestly, this kind of soccer is like Lohan for writer's block.
WOOT WOOT!

I got major sotrm-chasing lunatic-ish right with you. Damn fine piece of writing. So was the nostalgic mildly weepy piece. Here. Right here. Wha? You run out of steam mid-rant? Hello? Was really looking forward to a major leaguer. Sigh.
*sigh*
I bought right into the hype, too. With fond memories of Hurricanes Gloria and Bob, I excitedly pulled in deck furniture, took down our flag and bought two new packs of D batteries. Not to mention the amount of time I spent talking Big Brother, who just finished "reading" The Wizard of Oz, about how he wasn't going to wind up in the land of flying monkeys.
I mean...did even rain?! Ridiculous.
What's really annoying is the people two days out who say, "Oh, it's not going to be anything" while I'm scrambling for the last pack of D batteries and lashing down my deck furniture, only to have them be right. Jerks.
Love the Ruthie story. Lost teeth make me weepy too.
So wait - are you saying one of your kids is going to be in the World Cup?
