My daughter had her sports award ceremony last night for being on the bowling team. She got a "Good Sportsperson" Award. She was very excited. I kind of figured she was going to get some kind of an award because the coach was very insistent that I make sure she was there and the coach had been saying all along how my daughter was so focused and tried so hard.

In the words of Kathy Griffin, Social Spark can suck it. If my blog is still acting wonky, please be kind enough to email me and let me know and I will get back to working ...
