The Harmelings

The DJ wins another award for world’s best daddy-o, seriously. Tonight he took Jack to his first NBA game, at the Staples center in LA. (I know, that sounds expensive, but its not at all if you are a Clippers fan. No one goes to those games, tickets are cheeeeeeap. The DJ has been a faithful Clippers fan his entire life, and I don’t believe they have ever had a winning season. The DJ is a pretty loyal guy – another thing he wins an award for.)

Anyway – Clippers vs Phoenix Suns. Jack dug through his dresser looking for a shirt that would have both teams’ colors even though he said he was “going for the Suns.” Unsuccessful in finding a shirt with red-white-blue AND purple-orange, I told him to have daddy-o buy him a shirt at the game. Cant wait to see if he comes back with a Clippers shirt or a Lakers shirt, since it is the Staples center, “home of the Lakers” and  Jack’s favorite team.

On the way to the game, the DJ took him to Denny’s for a grilled cheese. Another first. When they were done eating Jack said, “Now THAT… was perfect.” If I ever hear him say that about a French Slam plus a milkshake,  I will check his room for a bong.

I think they have been there for less than 30 minutes now and I just received a text from the DJ that they have showed Jack on the scoreboard twice already. D says Jack has been impressing those around him with his crazy NBA knowledge. I’m not keen on NBA trivia but I did find it pretty funny when he said “Why dont the Clippers just use the Laker Girls instead?”

BTW, with the boys gone, I had ice cream for dinner. Fetus had hot fudge. Rock on.
