LM LOVED swimming, squealing, splashing, jumping, kicking. Great success. Oh, and we went to lunch with daycare friends. Very good.
So - for anyone who watched the game on TV, did they show Hali's mad dash for the locker room after his exclamtion point 3 at the half, with Conditt hot on his trail? We have a direct line of site down the tunnel from our seats. Don't think Conditt ever caught him!
Also, when people don't know the players, I wish they would just shut the **** up. When Bolton got his first (FIRST!!!) foul, in the second half, this person to our right & behind shouted "Ah, )*@Y%@*_Y%!, TAKE THE FRESHMAN OUT!!!"
At that point in the game, Bolton (a redshirt SOPH) had 23 points, 7 more than the next guy (Hali). And did I mention it was only his first foul??? And he's a sophomore, NOT a freshman??? People can be so freakin' stupid.

I said this in the game thread too, they should not run campaign ads during sports. That's like the only thing left that brings everyone together.
I'm ashamed to say this very thing happened to me at about 0330 one night. I spent about an hour troubleshooting to find out it was the CO monitor which is right below one smoke detector. MIne was tougher because I have a bunch of hardwired and linked ones in addition to battery ones I have added. What is really embarrassing is that I did it again (this time at about 0300) a few years later. Luckily it was only about 15 minutes that time before I woke up enough to realize my mistake.
I'm not sure I want to wade through the whole game thread - just peeked in at the end of it to see what the tone was.. What's the story on "the sock"?
The usual suspects didn't get to cream themselves shitting on our team because we won so they have to settle for a sock.
Where do people have the CO detectors? Those combo ones are simple but are kinda dangerous also. CO detectors are recommended to be knee to chest high. If they are on your ceiling, it could be fatal by the time they go off.
hmm that's a good point. The garage one we put in ourselves is about chest high but I think the fire alarms in our rooms are also CO and those are definitely ceiling.
Also, I would frequently come home to one of the bedrooms chirping. But it would stop by the time DH would get home and I'd forget. Are the batteries sensitive to cold maybe? We'd keep the heat down during the day so it'd be fairly chill when I'd get home but by the time DH got home 60-90 later, the heat had been running and the chirping would stop. Hasn't happened in a while but the convo reminded me of that.
Could be sensitive if you put it down to like 35, we only drop ours to 65-66 during the day so we haven’t seen that problem.
nah, we put it to like 60. But it was only ever on days I got home before the heat kicked back in at like 530 and was always quiet by like 6. We did change the batteries because this is when I was pregnant but it eventually happened with all three.
