A Day in the Life

As in most families, there are many conversations had in our car. Some involve me...some do not. Today in the car I learned that there is indeed a "Booger Cycle." It appears that when you take a booger out of your nose and wipe it on the car seat...there is a purpose. For in the 2nd stage of the cycle, the booger dries...and then in the 3rd and final stage, when the windows are down, the booger flies out the window. And then, of course, the cycle repeats. Turns out it's much like the water cycle...just nastier.

Steve has been a cop for 13 years now. He loves his job...and one of the things that has brought him alot of job satisfaction over the years is helping people. Turns out lately that something else that has brought him alot of job satisfaction is making sure that the punks of this world get their fair share. Soccer moms...you're pretty safe right now...because more than likely, you pay for insurance for your car(s), you don't vandalize buildings or vehicles for fun, and overall, you're pretty responsible. Lately...he's loving giving tickets and towing cars for all those people who don't think it's necessary to have insurance for their cars...or who can't seem to remember how many warrants they have for this or that. Yes...a little job satisfaction goes a long way.

And one for the "Mother of the Year" award nominations...gotta love it when Cody walks in this afternoon and says "Oh, the cleaning ladies were here today!" like there's absolutely no way this house looks this clean otherwise.
