For Clarice

So I'm up early this morning doing homework, except that since my user name was changed last week I can't access what I was planning to read. What shall I do? The answer is obvious: add a new post to my blog to avoid being chastised by Clarice, and to give her something to do at work.

The summer posts are so ridiculously overdue that I will have to let them die, but here is a summary: On our trip, the glass from our truck's side mirror just fell out. We watched it shatter along the shoulder. It was pretty unexpected and funny. Also unexpected (but not so funny) was on the way home when a big, fat, juicy bug was sucked in through the open window and splattered on my cheek. Eeew. The favorite activity on the second half of our summer vacation was swimming. We went to Hurricane Harbor in Arlington and rode the Tornado four times. It's a big blue and yellow funnel that you get shot into, and then you slide back and forth up the sides like a penny in one of those funnel buckets (used to be in malls). Before Hurricane Harbor, we made our own Hurricane with this family cannonball at James' aunt's house.

So, this is the catch-up post. As soon as I can squeeze it in, a new one is on the way. Clarice - enjoy.
