Six Bloggin’ Years Ago

So, Twistedjim.com turned six years old today. And instead of treating our oldest to a birthday celebration worthy of My Super Sweet Sixteen, Twisted Wife went to Old Shawnee Days (don’t ask) and I took Twisted Son to Twisted Daughter’s soccer game. Instead of cake and ice cream, I got to watch a bunch of five and six year-old girls kick a ball one at a time and then stand there as the next little girl kicked the ball. It was riveting.

I expected Twisted Daughter to be the team enforcer. She’s a little big for her age and can easily run the other girls over. I thought this was going to be her season. As soon as the ref blew the whistle to start the game, she took the ball right down the field and scored a goal. Unfortunately, all the other little girls didn’t realize the game had started and they just stood there as she ran by. It was SWEET! Once they brought the ball back to midfield and informed the others that the game had started, TD took the ball right down the field and scored again… SUPER SWEET! After that, the other girls realized they were playing soccer. TD lost interest but ran around and kicked the ball a few more times… super suck!

As I stood there clapping and faking a smile, I thought of how we’d neglected Twistedjim.com all day. Then, I realized it is just a blog and I just wanted a piece of cake. Good thing my birthday’s right around the corner.

Thanks for the last six years.
