{I took the little guy. . .}

in the middle with his eyes closed to the doctor today.

He has THE FLU.

Yes, I repeat Space Rangers, the FLU.

Since we are talking about bad things, let me tell you the idiot thing I did today . . .

Remember my new neighbors I mentioned while back? Well, not the ones

right next door, but actually to my left (facing my house) couple doors down?

Anyways, I stopped and talked to her the other day.

She shows up today on my doorstep.

To exchange phone numbers.

and kids names. . . and ages (all very important for Summertime Fun).

I mention my son having THE FLU.

and here's where it gets bad. . .

I left her standing on the porch.

And I say to myself, "Self, What would have been the harm in inviting her into the foyer?"

I am just embarrassed for me.
