February Madness

Today was a big work day - here's a photo of Daddy from last Summer Xtreme, obviously a bit of a joke photo. I just happened upon it going through some files, and had completely forgotten about it. One of the current events today - last week, really - involves basketball. It's an Asian player who has been very successful as of late. The reason for his fame is more the fact that a month ago, he was sleeping on a couch, and now he's got people all over the world watching him. But the fact that he is Asian makes it him a NBA rarity, somewhat like Yao Ming. Of course, looking at the picture above, it should be obvious that he won't be able to dunk as well as Daddy does.

Seriously though, we're not much of a basketball family. I think baseball is more our thing. Still, we might make our way to see the Harlem Globetrotters one of these years when Madison is a tiny bit older. I think she'd really get a kick out of those guys. Daddy remembers seeing them at Madison Square Garden. Tomorrow night, we'll see Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey's Circus, which Daddy also saw at Madison Square Garden. The circus should be fun - we're all looking forward to a night with the whole family.

Until then, it's work, work, work. We've got somewhat of a "perfect storm" of work situation coming this weekend, which makes me think I'll be camping out at the office again. No rest for the weary, and boy, Daddy's weary. I wonder if there's a vacation coming up soon. It'd sure be nice!

As you'll notice, there's not much about Madison in this blog entry. That's because Daddy didn't get to see her much. We do drive in to work together, still playing Disney "name that tune" and talking about her friends, Wonder Woman, Groundhog and Fluffy. This week, it seems that both Fluffy and Groundhog fell and injured themselves. Madison put makeshift casts on both of their arms shortly before bed last night. They're getting better, but these things take time!
