Thinking about a nice vacation?  Something to just go, relax, and unwind.  How about Around the World in 80 Pubs?

An interesting, if not INSANE fact:  since the 2007 British Open (almost 2 years ago), Tiger has played in 17 tournaments – a number much lower than it should have been, because he was out rehabbing his broken leg. He finished in the top 10 in 7 of those.  The other 10?  He WON those.

Summary:  Tiger Woods hasn’t finished out of the top 10 in any tournament he’s played in for nearly TWO YEARS.

Big couple of weeks.  Sydney finished 6th grade, and coupled with the physical she just had, makes me acutely aware that she is very nearly a teenager.  The doctor (mother of one of her school friends) gave us the full rundown on where she is with puberty, plans for menstrual cycles, and even how to start discussions about birth control.  Excuse me?  Birth control?  Umm – no.  Just – NO.

If news that i can actually wrap my head around, her recital was last weekend.  She was fantastic as usual, dancing in a can-can number that I could hardly believe.  Just amazing.  She also got called in last minute to dance a number she hadn’t done in a year, because another kid got massive stomach cramps – probably from birth control.  I also did my Dancing Dads thing, to “Jai Ho” from Slumdog Millionaire,   which the crowd loved – probably because we’re DADS, have very little rhythm, and generally suck.  Whatever.  It was great fun.
