"Hand Me My Patching Trowel, Boy!"
We spent Mother's Day installing a bathroom exhaust fan and related ducting, working as a family, just like every mother dreams of doing on her special day. It was a great weekend full of laughter and swearing and fetching things. With this project finished (well, almost finished, at any rate), I think that Sy and I have now completed enough work that it should qualify us for a degree in Half-Assal Engineering.
What did you guys do for mommy?

My two brothers and I headed out to my parents' place, where we proceeded to BBQ steak and potatoes, and watched the first period of the Oilers game. We also put together a wrought-iron-looking outdoor fireplace. So we did some half-assed engineering, but not enough for a degree. In fact, I think my youngest brother just audited.

Mothers Day? Cripes, it was just Valentines Day! Sometimes I think they just MAKE holidays up.

I didn't blame her for all of my problems.

I called her and woke her up from a nap. I'm special, Mommy!
In other news, Norbizness is running a contest to see who can come up with the best cartoon reference to describe the Bush administration. Bring it, SSB.
