Well, isn't this a blog of firsts. Claire started soccer a few weeks ago and had her first games yesterday. She played well. The first game was a tie and the second a 4-0 win for her team. She seemed to do especially well playing defense and not allowing the other team to get in close to the goal. It's a good thing she got her ears lowered last month, because playing soccer at mid-day when it's 90 degrees would have been significantly more miserable with an extra foot or so of hair to carry around.
This brings me to the next firsts. This is the first blog in September. It's the 13th. I guess I'm just saving up the best stuff for the second half of the month... This is also the first posting on the new MacBook Pro. I picked it up a week ago so that I wasn't monopolizing our other laptop with my school studies. It's been interesting being a Mac so far. It is certainly superior (in construction) to any PC laptop I have used. My only physical complaint so far is the rather sharp aluminum edge at the seam where the top of the screen meets the typing/hand resting area. This is fine if you are using the machine at a desk or on your lap while sitting, but when used while lying on your back (which I am wont to do from time to time) it does tend to be a bit uncomfortable against the underside of your forearms. Getting used to the OS has been a bit dicey on occasion, but it is similar enough to Windows (or the other way around) that I have not gotten too stymied on anything.
There must be some firsts that I am forgetting, but I'll save them for another post.
