Of all the wonderful things I enjoy in this world, changing diapers and doing homework are not among them. One thing that is among my most-favoritists of all is watching my Dallas Cowboys play football. The NFL preseason is among us, which leads us to the fourth (fourth!) annual Team Nimrod Football League. I, for one, look forward to all of the mystical powers brought forward by getting rid of T.O. a mighty new stadium and crisp, fall air in the Dallas area. Something feels good about this season, and it isn’t the sweaty practice socks of Marion Barber that I keep under my pillow when I sleep.
A brief update on the Prime household, just to fill everyone in on the last few months. The two young-uns are coming along quite nicely. They’re pressing three-and-a-half months and continue to be every bit the handful any other parent can imagine them to be. They both have good reports from the doctor and are growing like weeds.
My schooling is coming along well. I’m officially a sophomore (!) and am continually grinding away at whatever class will fill a little checkbox on my school transcript as I march slowly towards obtaining a degree. Finding the appropriate amount of time to study and do homework has been quite the challenge between work, and the twins at home.
Lastly, my family and I had the disheartening task of burying my father in early July. Among the many blessings he gave to us, one I am very thankful for is my love of the Dallas Cowboys. My father was a lifelong Cowboys fan, and raised his children to be the same. The Cowboys were an institution in his house. So to him I tip my hat, and hope – right here on the front page – that the Dallas Cowboys can make something happen this season. I’m looking forward to kick-starting the TNFL for the fourth year. Best of luck to everyone participating.
