Irving, Texas (a suburb of Dallas - where the Cowboys play) experienced a little jolt last night and this afternoon.

They said it registered 3.0.

Now I know that's nothing to you Cali folks, but these things only happen around here like once every 20 years or so.

Anyway, there's a huge fault line out there. You can really feel it while driving over I-635 and Hwy 114 going towards DFW airport from Dallas. The roads are so bumpy you think that you...

For all those folks who remember, today is the 30th anniversary of the premier episode of the hit TV show DALLAS.

Yes, Southfork Ranch still exists today and is a working farm. You can still tour the house, but nothing on the inside looks like what it did on TV. Everything on the inside was filmed in the studio. But all of the outside shots were done in and around the Dallas/Fort Worth area, including my home town! Towards the end of the series when "Bobby Ewing" renewed...

My brother and his wife had a baby girl today!

Now my little Bryce has two kissing cousins!

Today was my little boy's first day in private school. He is in the 2 year old class with 7 other little ones. They were all so cute!

Anyway, Bryce of course had a rough first day, but he got through it pretty well. He liked playing with the cars the best. But he didn't like his lunch at all. He didn't eat a bite or drink his milk even while watching the others eat the same thing. He wasn't a happy camper.

After his crazy lunch he went down for a nap with no problem...

OK...first of all I'm a very normal person, but the difference is that every once in a blue moon I have psychic dreams. Some are very clear and happens within a day or two or a few months later, but the one I had today took place several years ago...I think.

First of all I'm a teacher, and this dream I had happened I know a few years ago while I was still teaching at my old school. Anyway, I had this teaching dream but I wasn't in my current classroom at the time. I was teaching...

No, this is not guess the topic with Johnny Carson. These are all three things I witnessed last night during the concert.

Last night I saw George Michael's 25Live tour. It's been 20 years since I've seen him. I had been waiting for this moment for so long I could hardly contain myself. Anyway, last night was one of the best shows I have ever seen.

Actually...IT WAS AWESOME!!! I was down on the floor only 15 rows from the stage and was able to see George Michael...

WHOOO HOOOO!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!! I HAVE A JOB!!!

I was getting really worried here. I thought I would never find a job in this shitty economy. And yes, even being a math teacher has become cut-throat. For the first time ever in my life I was really sweating it. Usually school districts are dying for math teachers, but for the first time ever, math teachers are dying to find a job.

Well, it's not in the district where I want it to be in (I was hoping for something...

What an interesting evening!

Excellent band and an excellent sermon where was quoted many times.

"The offering was sent around with the revelation that the money would not be going to the church, but rather to World Vision, a partner with the ONE campaign, which Bono champions." News Room



And later during communion my friend and I saw a guy wearing a T-shirt that said "Bono is my preacher."

I'm loving and hating this new blue crack.

It's crisp and clean, but now I'm having to hunt for things where the old place was second nature...I could almost do it in my sleep.

Thanks Elvis for the face lift, but this place will take some getting used to.

Allegra

Can you believe how fast he's growing?

I can't!

He's our little big man!

See for yourself...

HOLY MOLY!!!!!

IT'S A FREAKIN' MIRACLE!!!

George Michael is coming back to Dallas 20 years later!!! (And around the US of course.)

I haven't been this excited since I got my first U2 ticket back in 2001.

I've got the pre-sale jitters again!

And guess who runs GM's website?

Fanfuckingfire.

...damn...

So I need all the good luck I can get!!!

How rude of you to say that these people "DESERVED TO BE FOOLED!"

My problem with you is that you never know when to quit. You're always dressed up like Bono, even when you don't have a paying gig. You autograph people's U2 stuff and never bother to tell them that you are not Bono. You let people leave thinking they just met Bono. Etc, etc, etc...

I personally know a few Bono impersonators, and they would never ever act like that. They hate...

Allegra

Wow!

It was like late spring here today.

Records were broken for both the morning low [highest low temperature on this date] and the afternoon high.

Of course I'm sure we'll have to pay with terrible storms. We always do. They're suppose to be here between 3-7am.

And folks, this is why we have tornados.

Hang on to your mattress!

...where "C" stands for crack.

I have officially made this up. It's now the new name for the movie.

Comment if you agree.

I live 50 miles away from the nearest IMAX. I said twice is enough, but in the back of my brain I really need more.

I was doing good until now. My U2 buddies are encouraging me to see it again.

...help...

Allegra

Well...almost!

Right after I "woke up" my computer screen and after he saw my desktop, my little Bryce said...

BABA!

...and pointed right at him.

He's getting real close, but we're still working on it.
