Saturday August 9th

My Favorite Moment of the Day: I was watching NBA hardwood classics tonight, and the 1997 playoff series between the Heat and the Knicks was on. It made me reflect back to 1999, and the playoff series between the Heat and the Knicks. I don't remember the basketball, but I remember being on the phone with Rob, watching the entire final game of the series, talking about the players and the plays as the game wore on. We probably talked about fantasy baseball too. All the time I was on the phone, I was holding Olivia, rocking her, at 3 months old, trying to keep her asleep. That was her real intro to basketball. The old and broken fisher price hoop pictured above was a present on her 1st birthday. Good memories of holding her, watching her play on that little hoop, and talking sports on the phone with Rob was my favorite thing today.

Thing that Made me Laugh Today: Olivia had a little party tonight, with 11 people, including herself and Anna. It was pretty funny watching the interaction between all of them. Some of them know each other, some of them don't. earlier in the day one of the people asked everyone to send a selfie so they could see who they recognized. One of the boys actually responded "the lighting is bad where I am right now, I'll send one later". When Kristin read that to me, I started to laugh and shake my head, but Kristin started laughing hilariously! It was awesome!

Thing that Made me Think Today: Why the hell am I spending $100 on a calculator that I can get on the iPad, (that I am paying $1000 for), for free?? Then I thought maybe this is just another thing that I "don't get", and that this is a result of me getting old. But whatever, it still seems ridiculous.
