Our Champion

My apologies to our friends and family who have already heard the exciting news. Stop reading now. Just stop. Play Bejeweled. Get a snack. Read your paper. Just don't keep reading this post. I mean really, how obnoxious can I be? (Don't answer that!) For those who didn't receive my bragging memo. . .
Garrett is the state champion in javelin! And if that wasn't enough bragging for you. . .
He set the new state record "shattering" the old one by over a meter (I think--I'll have to check with Max in the morning on the exact distance)!!

Way to be, Garrett! We're so proud of you.

I wasn't gonna go there, about the memo, and seem petty. Thanks for taking care of it for me, r.

Cindy said...

Woops, totally did NOT post that last comment, did I? I did not mean that the way it sounds. Really. I wanted to post something about not getting a memo. I want memos. texts. Smoke signals, something.

Cindy, who are you?! You go off and get a little humidity in your brain and now this??! I would expect better from you.

And in my defense, I did try to call Tug and Regina from the meet to let them know about their nephew. For some reason, they didn't take my call.
