Fell asleep at halftime last night of (arguably) the greatest Celtics game ever and (inarguably) the biggest comeback in finals history. 9pm start times so that the NBA can maximize revenue and alienate young viewers make Bryan angry. Now I’ve got to go find some highlights. (Logan - please direct all questions about my productivity this morning to David Stern).

Trip home:

• Alarm went off 45 minutes late
• Pulled over < 1 mile from condo: 10 minute delay, got off with a warning
• Boarded plane only to find out there would be a delay due to the lack of pilots. (Note to self: If I ever run an airline, be sure to include pilots on every flight): 1.5 hour delay
• Due to the aforementioned delay, we got to fly with a tired and hungry 1 year old.

Two of the more absurd things (of many) I heard on vacation (Thank you Florida!):

• “Sorry, we only have $10 and $25 gift certificates” (after I asked for a $75 gift certificate)
•  ”I betcha Hillary paid off one of ‘dem Saudi Arabian terrorists” (not sure what she paid for, didn’t stick around to find out)

Things I learned:

• No more flights with a child that requires a child seat and > 1 nap per day
• I hate the cold, but I couldn’t live in the South. Too hot, too…. (see above)
• Having limited access to the internet is becoming more difficult for me
• I’m amazed with the Wii Fit and ingenuity of the folks at Nintendo

Water can be pretty scary

Outstanding device. Really sensitive, easy to use and I actually built up a sweat on occasion. In addition to that, I discovered I missed my calling as a skier (slalom or distance - I’m a double threat guy).

Just thought I’d write this down to remind myself not to do it ever again. To expand on Melissa’s post, here are some problems with traveling when you have a child:

1. Packed the food in the trunk instead of the back seat, 1 full hour of screaming baby before we got to the airport.

2.The airline gave us exactly 12 seconds to “preboard” resulting in my having to carry 4 bags and a child seat (which I hit several people with) past a plane full of travellers.

3.  Children do not like to be constrained by a child seat/anything for an extended period of time. After 4 hours, they get a bit agitated.

4. 1.5 hour ride AFTER an entire day of travel. I’m surprised everyone lived through that.

5. Cockroaches. I’ve seen around 30 (mixed live/dead) in the Condo. Though I have an excuse to use my Tony Montana voice, they still are not all that fun.

• I just saw a call against Paul Pierce that leaves me with no doubt the NBA is dictating winners and losers. #
