Random stuff from the week

Okay, I back from being in shock that we are having a baby boy. I can't express how caught off gaurd it took me. I mean it was 50-50, but I never entertained the thought it could be a boy, so I just rolled with it and thought girl. A boy is actually great...I always wanted a boy...but to be 100% honest, I was looking forward to having a girl. Really the important thing is just for a healthy baby and from the ultrasound, we can see two legs, two arms, 4 valves of the heart...things look good.

I don't think this is a good sign. I told my Dad that I we were going to have a boy and he just laughed. After he stopped laughing he says giddily, "What comes around, goes around." What is that suppose to mean?? I am going to have a great kid, just like me?? I mean, I am the greatest child a parent could want. No offense Dawn, but there is a reason you are #2....that is to show the difference between average (you) and great (me).

So just some random thoughts this week. Maybe someone knows the answer to this one. Aya and I were watching the All-Star game on Tuesday. Miguel Tejada. Is he black or mexican? I think he is from the Domincan. Is he just a dark mexican that looks black? Or is he black with a mexican accent??

A helpful tip for anyone over 30 out there. When getting a cramp in your leg, DO NOT TRY to stretch it out before the cramp occurs. I was sitting at work and I felt my calf tingle. I was thinking, "Hmmm, I am getting a cramp." Well before I let it get to be a cramp I decided to shake my leg out. Not a bright move. I ended up straining my calf muscle and creating these micro-tears. I could hardly walk on it for 2 days.

I assume most of you have heard the news about the guy that used his baby as shield. While it is tragic, I really don't know what the big deal is. The guy shot 40 rounds at the LAPD. Bullets are flying around not only the police but the public. Now the LAPD firing 90 rounds is kinda execessive...what did SWAT do...count to 3 and then have everyoneshoot?! Like they don't have a sharp shooter? I am all for police using excessive force. Kill'em all and let god sort them out.

Thanks for everyone on car suggestions. Let me just say as of right now, I have ZERO interest in an SUV or minivan. I personally don't drive those cars. I mean Ferrai could make and SUV and I wouldn't be interested. I like my cars lower to the ground and a sedan is just fine for me.
