Not much time

I haven’t had much time to blog.  Ali made an emergency trip up to PA on Monday because her grandfather is not doing well.  She flew out at 4:45 Monday and at this point she is not sure when she is coming back.  Pop pop is hanging in there but the outlook isn’t promising.

We are in the middle of printing over 250,000 tax bills at work so everyone is rather busy.

I thought I missed Shamrock / Ortiz 3.  It showed for free on Spike TV last week but for some reason my Tivo missed it.  Thankfully they rebroadcast it and the tivo snagged it this time.  Once again Tito dominated, leaving no doubt who was the better fighter, stopping Ken in the first round.  After the fight Tito did his normal grave digger routine and then flipped Ken off with the double bird as he approached him.  However Ken was trying to come over to make peace.  Eventually Tito realized it and they shook hands and hugged.  It was a cool way for it to all end.  Tito apologized for his antics and Ken gave Tito props as being the better fighter.  I wonder how a 10 year old younger Ken would have faired, after all he is 42.

So my immediate day to day routine is up in the air as a lot depends on how things go up north for Ali.  I am holding down the fort, driving home everyday at lunch to let Nicki out, and manning the homefront.  I am taking the week off from the gym, partly out of necessity because of having to drive home at lunch, partly just to give my body a week to heal some of the aches and pains that have been haunting me.
