What a weekend.  I don’t even know where to start today!  I spent some time at my favorite little Chinese place, Yee’s Village in Townsend.  Steve Yee has been a good little friend of mine since I was like 15 and I like to check in with him every few weeks for some of his chicken wings!  When you are on a workout plan like I am, Chicken Wings are not so bad, right?

So I grabbed my friend Nik (yes, there is no “c” in his name) and headed there for a night of bad decisions.  I am not a big drinker and really only drink Bud Light or now Bud Light with Lime every so often, but I decided to have my 1^st ever scorpion bowl.  I must say, pretty tasty Mr. Yee!  They seem to go down just as smooth as my diet coke and go very well with wings.  I had a few of these neat little treats and got into some great topics with the bar crowd, who were all in the same boat of understanding nothing anyone said but still nodded their heads and agreed with everything all while smiling!  After a few hours of useless banter and prank calls from the bar (someday I will share some with you), we called it a night and headed home.  And for the record, we had a DD, so MOM, you can relax when you read this!

On Sunday, I had my sons Pop Warner Football game at Oakmont High School in the nice community of Ashburnham.  Now, I am a huge fan of any sport my son plays in and supports his teams any way I can and just love to watch his teams play.   He is on a young team and they all work hard with the help of some great coaches.  That is what Pop Warner is all about.  You learn the game of football, have some fun and get a taste of what it will be like when you get to High School.  Well, I must say the fine folks of Oakmont have a great field, great teams and great coaches, BUT, the guy who runs their league needs to get a pie in the face!

I don’t even know his name, but I have never wanted to trip someone when they walked by me so they fell into a pile of manure as I did this guy!  He comes off as the kind of guy who was made fun of so much as a kid that he now takes it out on everyone around him!  Last year we had to play this team and this guy almost started a battle with our coaches (who remained calm!) over things that were just uncalled for, and now this year, he is right back at it all while in front of the kids!  I remember last year his own team parents were apologizing to us for his behavior!  All I want to say is youth sports are for learning and fun and you act like you are going for the Lombardi trophy.  I give your coaches credit, I would have told you to get lost a long time ago.  I’m sure you care about the kids and do some good things, but buddy, relax and enjoy the game!  It isn’t the kid’s fault you were always the last one picked for dodge ball and you had a horrible hair cut as a child!

Okay, now that I have that rant out of the way, I also stopped by my friend’s house to see his “straight from the oven” twins!  (Welcome Ryan and Gavin Rollo to the world and big shout out to their older brother Connor!)  They are like 1 month old, tiny and seemed to think I was funny!  I would tell them jokes and then make them smile by taking my fingers and moving their lips into smile position.  It is always great to get fake smiles from infants to make you feel like you are funny!  I had some gifts for them and that got me to thinking…What is the obsession with Rattles and why do babies like them?  I mean, they make such annoying sounds and give people a headache! How is that remotely fun for a baby to hear that?  I would much rather have like a pacifier that would sing sweet little songs to me or a diaper that had an alarm that would alert the adults as to when I had a mess so they could change me ASAP!  The rattle just seems so irrelevant and I will never buy one again to save all future babies I may meet of these useless noise makers.

Now, the best news of the weekend is with my Cousin Eric.  This guy is a professional model and has been all over the world doing his thing and we are all proud of his work.  BUT, now I think he is out to ruin my day!  I found out this morning that he just got back from showing off his looks wearing some new clothing line from Russell Simmons.  Now, you may ask why am I so jealous?  After all, I am starting my modeling career and should be happy for him, right?  Well, this new clothing line will be in Wal Mart sores and that means HE will be in the Wal Mart flier possibly before ME!  I can’t have that happen!  That is my baby!  I need to get on the phone today with them and see how I can expedite my “pictorial” so I can be the 1^st in the family to be in the flier!  I have worked too hard over the past 3 weeks to be upstaged by a family member who is leaving for Spain today to be in some high end catalog or something!  I think he has it out for me and intentionally did this to show me there is only room for 1 model in the family!  Well, I will show him!  Look for me to post some calls this week in my quest to make it happen!

I also have some interviews this week with Leslie David Baker who plays “Stanley” on my favorite TV shows “The Office” and local guy and one of the stars of “ER”, Scott Grimes.  Now, I need to go have a bottle of water and plot my next move with Wal Mart.  And, what the heck was up with the Patriots game?  Was that a bad dream??
