Sacramento Summer?
I never thought I would say this, but, I’m ready for the Sacramento heat! Our pool is sparkling (almost), our flowers are blooming, our vegetable garden is veggie-ing, and we’ve been taking advantage of the awesome gas grill that Nick brought, with frequent BBQ’s with our friends. But, the cool nights are just cold enough to keep us bundled up, and the days are not hot enough to warrant a quick dip in the pool. I’m ready to get my tan on, on our newly stained deck (above the kittens now living underneath!).

Last weekend, we enjoyed an early Fluken Father’s Day with my ‘rents at the Giants vs. A’s Game at AT&T Park. The game was awesome, well, for what we saw of it. Rowdy/drunk bleacher fans were standing/falling all over each other right in front of us for the majority of the game. We witnessed many arrests, a few fights, beer being spilled all over, and other shenanigans before we decided to stand up on top near the Coke Bottle in order to see the final innings. Overall, it was an awesome and entertaining Father’s Day Event.

I started my summer school class on Monday night. The material is very interesting and the 3 hour class isn’t as painful as I had anticipated. One week already under my belt, only 7 more to go!

Singing the Flu Blues

After feeling absolutely terrible for about a week, I'm starting to feel like myself again. And after a week of trying to transfer all my important files/pics/software off my old Bee laptop, it decided to commit suicide right before I got my last couple months of pics onto my flash drive. Oh well. I'm new and improved, with a new laptop from work, and new medication to battle this weird cold/flu that's got me in a fog.

Sam, on the other hand, has been a very happy camper lately. After a brief scare the other night- he was nursing his back leg and refusing to put any weight on it for a few hours, very weird- he's been enjoying this lovely weather, and we've been taking advantage of our local Bark Park (before it might close down!!~ terrible!).

More to report later... I'm starting my first class in a few weeks (very exciting), and we have some fun father's day schenanigans coming up with the Fluken Clan!
