Omelettes

Made the boys ham & cheese omelettes this morning for breakfast. Somebody mentioned them at work yesterday and put the idea into my head. I picked up some eggs and ham since we didn't have any. My oldest son had a basketball game at 11 a.m. versus St. Peter & Paul. The other team had to forfeit because they only had 4 players. They still played a full game. The practice never hurts. Grandma and Papa came and watched. The final was 9 to 9. I couldn't think of anything to write today. I finished reading "Bluebeard" by Kurt Vonnegut. I really enjoy his books and wish he wrote more or there were other authors like him. I started reading "Fraternity" by Bob Greene. He had the wonderful opportunity to interview five living presidents. How cool is that? Reading the first couple of chapters about Nixon I'm kicking myself because I had a chance to buy an autographed copy of his autobiography for $60.00 and I passed it up. I've shook hands with one president - George Bush Sr. and have seen three other presidents in person - Gerald Ford at a Phil Donahue Show in Park West. Jimmy Carter at a booksigning and George W. Bush at a parade in Naperville. I've shook hands with two vice-presidents - Dan Quayle and Al Gore. Dan Quayle at a booksigning and Al Gore near the Palmer House in Chicago. One of these days I'll try and chronicle all my brushes with fame. If only some would rub off.
