Volvos and soccer

I have officially become a Volvo Driving Soccer Mom. I already had the Volvo, now I have the soccer player. T2 told us he wanted to learn the game so he could keep up with his friends on the playground who all play that, or basketball. So I've joined that happy demographic of soccer mom. I haven't yet put the soccer magnet on the back of my car, and I probably won't. He had his first game last Saturday and scored two goals, which we thought was pretty good considering he had only one practice before the first game.

I haven't yet put a magnetic soccer ball on my tailgate, and I don't think I will. And for you younger campers out there, yes, I have been made aware that there is an Everclear song about me and my type. I don't exactly fit that description though...I certainly don't vote Republican.

Meanwhile, The Reenactor and I are going to become soccer hooligans...wave big flags, throw our shirts on the field, scream obscenities at the refs, etc.

Congratulations on two goals. And don't forget, the next time he scores a goal you have to pull the bottom of your shirt up over your head and run around with your arms out like you are about to take off.
