Just booked my older son's birthday party for next weekend, and I'm already looking forward to it. We're doing it at a Rochester Red Wings baseball game, and the party package is both fun and affordable.
Hot dogs, soda, ice cream cake, balloons, logo baseballs, and bleacher seats for everyone. Woohoo! What better way to spend an evening in May?
Wow.
Reading this post gave me an odd mix of feelings.
I'm halfway romanticized by the classical springtime activities you've described, but I also feel like I'm reading a description of my future as a picket fenced-in white collar family man.
Don't forget to lay down in the grass this summer. It's my advice to everyone.
Well, I took the long way around back to this picket-fenced white collar life I'm leading now. Fear not. There's plenty of time to live a wild-oats-sowing hipster urban life between now and then.
And I find that I appreciate this life all the more for having sampled alternatives along the way.
