Had dinner at El Porton Monday night with three guys from the small group. We shared our snowjam stories. Guess I didn’t have it too bad after all. Steve left Perimeter Center around noon. Didn’t take him too long to take Abernathy to Johnson Ferry across the river and up the hill (an hour) but then another two hours to get to his home on Murdock. He told his son to walk home and stay off the bus. Steve’s daughter couldn’t get her car up either of the hills leading out of Pope.
Reid left Turner around four and made it to his father’s house near Eastside Baptist around midnight. He had to do some walking as well. Reid spent all day Wednesday at his dad’s house and finally made it home Thursday. Lee left the Cobb Galleria at five and got stuck in Indians Hills. He finally spent the night at a friend’s. Lee did some walking as well. Reid’s son took three hours to take Lee’s daughter home (a hilly subdivision off Murdock) from Pope then a few miles home off Bishop Lake, near us.
Didn’t leave work until 5:20 Tuesday. Traffic was bad, so it took over an hour to get home. Ceil cooked chili and we watched the creation/evolution debate. Nye was polished and in top debate form, but I didn’t think Ken Ham made a very strong case for creation. The president of Southern Seminary sat on the front row and afterwards wrote a detailed article, but it seemed like much of it had been written before the debate.
Didn’t leave work until 5:30 Wednesday. C and A had art class. Took M to Willys, and he found a cheap CD at the store. Back home he watched Modern Family, Psych, and Duck Dynasty. I had been sleepy all day, but didn’t get to bad early. Maybe tonight.
Need to go visit my barber in East Cobb. Maybe Justin Bieber will be there. He was at the ice skating rink near the library I frequent. Right down from Johnson Ferry Baptist. Sounds like he is really messed up these days. I think this is the first time I ever typed the name Justin Bieber.
See the new Braves caps and jerseys? The jerseys kinda look like the red Nationals jersey, but they’ll only wear them five times.
Nice to see the Braves sign Freeman and Heyward. This will hush some of the detractors, but certainly not all of them. My friend thinks Heyward wants to sign with the Yankees when he becomes a free agent. I was thinking Freeman would bolt for the west coast as well, not making the connection about getting engaged. I made a similar joke to Chipper’s, that Freeman would hire him as a driver. Perhaps we should wish for Heyward to find a Southern girl of his own to keep him in town. Too bad no one has been interested in Matt Diaz. The Braves have gone from three Johnsons to one. Reed signed with Miami and Elliot went with Cleveland.
I can’t believe how unfamiliar I am with the Hawks roster. I had never heard of the guy who made the all-star team, or the vet who won player of the week.
We may be looking around for a place for M to go to school next year. The work load at Veritas is crushing him. With Will moving off campus this fall, I hadn’t planned on paying tuition for M.
Comedians in Cars - I’ve watched several as well. Even Ceil thinks they are funny. That was a great clip they ran of Jerry and George right when the Super Bowl transitioned into halftime. Of course they would get coffee at their diner.
Kind of old school, but before the Super Bowl I watched Carol Burnett’s Mark Twain Award Show. Amy Phoeler, Rashida Jones, Ellen Degeneres, and Maya Rudolph spoke, along with Julie Andrews, Tim Conway, and Vickie Lawrence. Great clip of Carol singing “By the Time I Get to Phoenix” while trying to get her old Nissan station wagon to start. At one point the horn gets stuck, but she continues to mouth the words until the horn abruptly cuts off. Then Carol immediately picks up the sound in the middle of a word.
