Not really. He has a girlfriend that has taken up most of his time. He's only playing tonight because she isn't available. :D

I think my son just likes talking on the headset and calling people idiots. He plays with his friends and I get a kick out of listening to him.

This week he is trying to solve Rubic's Cube. I would have peeled the colors off or chuck the thing out the window but he keeps plugging away at it.

Interestingly, son does do 'chores' at his dad's house! I'm lucky to be able to get him to take the dog for a walk! :rolleyes: He will help out -- when I'm in a pinch!;)

I've seen son in action w/the headset -- it's hysterical!:D

You take the cube apart and reassemble it.

Thank goodness my son is not into the GF thing - yet! That would make 'supervision' even more difficult!:rolleyes:;)

I called the BNA baggage office last night to get their $50 per pax for a change of clothes; the bags (which were sent BWI-MCO) were brought in from MCO this morning.

I'm not too happy with it either. Too much driving back and forth to her house. Atleast I know that her stepfather is watching them, sort of.

Good that they had me at that time - they weren't offered anything by the airline and didn't know about the possibility of getting a day's worth of clothing / toiletries until I told them. No one else in my family flies - this aunt/uncle travel once or twice a year.

You should receive sainthood for all of the driving around.

well, not quite -- game is on a big screen TV & the controllers are wireless -- so there's a lot of physical activity, along w/'colorful' language!:D:rolleyes:
Boy, are you missing out by not having a teen!:rolleyes:;)

Yeah, somehow the 'chauffeur' part of the 'parent' job description is not highlighted enough!;):rolleyes::D
