Todd, Barry, Nadine and I went to the Metal Mayhem Festival in Virginia Beach yesterday - We drank WAY too much, laughed a lot and all paid for it today.  Good Times.

Watching a bunch of dirty rockbands with Todd and Barry.

I was sitting comfortably, in my usual evening spot watching the kids swim.  Now I’m listening to it thunder and pour down rain.  The lights have flickered a couple times.  I hope we don’t lose power.  I’m glad I’m off tomorrow and don’t have to worry about my alarm clock going off in the morning!

Ashton is allowed to bring a movie to school to share with his class during summer break.  As we were walking out of the house this morning, he asked if he could grab a movie from his room - I told him sure… hurry up.  He chose Monster House.  He chose a movie that made his older sister cry when it came out and she was his age, a movie good for Halloween… to watch with his class of five year olds in August.

ASHTON:
Mom, I am going to bring Monster House.

ME:
Oh, I don’t know buddy, that one is kind of scary and is probably not appropriate for school.

ASHTON:
Oh c’mon mom, it’s just a movie… jeez.  I’m not scared of it.

KAIDEN:
Ashton that movie is scary, some of the kids in your class will not like that movie… like Chase, do you think that Chase will like that movie?

ASHTON:
Kaiden, this movie will be great for Chase, he has been coughing a lot and this will scare that cough right out of his throat.  I’m bringing it.  Let’s go mom.

Soooo, we took it to school, and I pulled Ms. Michelle to the side and told her that I was sorry, that we were not getting out of the house without it, and that she could just put it on her desk and “not have time” to play it today.
