Like when I say moot is fat and ugly.

We'll have burgers, but not sure what the "other" meat will be.

Ah yes, Father's Day.
This will be my second Father's day and I expect it will be like the first. Though I expect to hear the plan at about 9pm Saturday, as usual.

- Clean house, vacuum pool, mow lawn
- Buy a lot of food and cook it (grill plus 2 kitchens). Grill portion will probably be steaks along with burgers, dogs and other meats etc.
- "Just the family" (wife's) comes by (10-16 people), mostly empty handed.
- Me, working the grill, and otherwise making everything happen.
- Me, no one to really even talk too, mostly due to the inability to speak each others language. But that's fine I'll be running around like a nut anyway. I typically expect about 30 trips up and down a full flight of stairs. Answer questions as to why I look so beat.
- "Family" leaves, wife passes out on couch 10 minutes later, I take care of my daughter until bedtime.
- I finally get a chance to eat something of what's left, start drinking.
- Clean the house and outside again, grab 4 hours sleep before going to work exhausted.

Oh joy, can't wait. The above isn't only a father's day affair but happens just about every other week.

vacuum pool

Paul, maybe you should have gotten one of the solar heaters for your pool. I got one this year, pretty cheap, no ongoing costs. There is one problem though, it only works when it sunny, it hasn't been sunny for a long time.

I have a kiddie pool we fill up on the roof deck on nice days to soak our feet while grilling.

I'm well insulated.

Have fun putting you feet in that cesspool of a Dora the Explorer pool you covet so much. I would imagine that the bacteria level is just above that of the hair-trap in the communal shower of a homeless shelter.

Nicely done.

In my defense, I'll restate that we fill it up on nice days. Meaning it doesn't double as a mutant mosquito cultivating petri dish. It gets cleaned, deflated and stored in the closet. Like moot's girlfriend.
