weekend plans

[doug rr]

watch nebraska get beat by rutgers today at 4...hit some balls tomorrow..take my wife to the airport on sunday morning..watch more football..home alone with the dog for 5 days,,watch mariners games

[wease]

looks like it'd take just over four hours, but you could both relax the whole time.

the wife balked at the idea of taking the flyer.

bumper-to-bumper to dallas it is.

just listen to the mariners game on the radio during the drive

I'll see what i can do. i think we'll be listening to The Devil in the White City. just as long as a baseball game.

Let us know how it is. I’ve had it in my stack for years. Someone left it in a plane seat or a seat at the airport or something and I picked it up. Been meaning to read it but have never gotten around to it.

well, I'll get the last 3.5 hours of it. she's almost through with it.

those Larson books are thicc.

One reason I’ve not started it.

my wife and i going to dallas to stay with friends. we planned on leaving Friday after work. then i realized this Saturday is OU/TX. that means I-35 southbound is going to be absolutely bonkers, so we're trying to decide on a possible alternate route, risking a super long drive because of traffic, or leaving early Saturday morning. a friend of mine who's gone to his fair share of OU/TX games (for those unfamiliar, the game is played in Dallas, which is about 3.5 hours south of OKC) advised Saturday mornings can be just as congested on the interstate. my wife, a goddamn saint and a national treasure is also not the most patient person in the world, so sitting in traffic is not ideal. i'm trying to sweeten the pot, seeing if we can leave Friday afternoon by letting her play the audiobook she's been listening to during the ride, while also imbibing in some wine to forget the time.

the roads look a bit crowded today..good luck, dad
