I'm halfway into the first of my five Fridays With Asher. He's got another dose of Coxsackie, which means no hanging out in public. And it's supposed to rain all day, which means no aimless walks.

Not exactly what I had in mind when I jumped at the chance to spend Fridays with the kid, but hey, I'll take it.

He's napping now, and I just checked work email. Someone wants me to fly to Florida for a meeting. Someone else wants me to fly to Texas. My two favorite states. Gee.
