It's part of teenageboyhood. There's a law about all hockey and swim workout/pump-up mixes including Thunderstruck and at least one other ACDC track.

That is very, very funny.

M: "Kiddo's nurse called...his head and stomach are hurting."

Me: "I suspect so...he ate a double croissan'wich this morning."

M: "Oh...I don't let him have that."

Me: "Oh now you tell me...that little shithead got over on me!"

M and Kiddo are going out of town tomorrow. M is going to a convention in Dallas...she's dropping Kiddo off in OK City to visit her mom. He's dawdling around in packing for the trip. I hear M yell, "Do not make me get Terry up here!"

My third son is graduating fom U Pitt this weekend. Today he was inducted into the Beta Gamma Sigma honor society for the College of Business Admin. He was honored for his work as a career counselor as well. Tomorrow is the University Convocation. He plans to write the four exams to get his CPA this summer before starting with Price Waterhouse Cooper in DC in September.

He's always been a smart, sensitive kid with all sorts of interests. And a self-starter. He went through a lot when his older brother (my second son) was manic and targeted him. I'm very happy for him.

My congratulations to him... and to you.

I do remember some of your posts from earlier times.
See, with time and effort, things do turn out well !
