Back in action...

I have finally recovered from my Spring Break Illness, and we are all still not quite sure what that was all about. I have returned to exercise and my sleeping pattern is once again normal. School was on again today and we were all very 'not-so eager' to return to classes. I am just happy that I can eat, keep the food down and actually function without a splitting headache.
This past weekend my family stormed NYC for the Broadway Hit "Spamalot"! It was my second time at this venue, but my family's first. It was a beautiful day in NYC and everyone was happy! I met my parents at the ferry and escorted them to the theatre, where we met up with Patrick and his lovely (and wonderful for putting up with him..) wife, Maura. I was very pleased that my dad was healthy enough to make the trip. Earlier in the week his strength was a question, but he is a McCrann and we are strong men. He powered through the whole day like a trooper, and I am certain he slept well that night.
While waiting in line for the show we spotted Jackie Mason among other celebrities taking a stroll down 42nd Avenue before their own performances. You will need to see Morag's Blog for those pictures.

As most of you know, my mother is NOT a US CITIZEN. (*Attention: INS).. anybody?.....
Anywho, I caught her and my father coming out of the "Passport & Visa" office on 8th avenue. Nothing like getting your US Visa in a 30 minute photo shop!


Once we made it to the theatre entrance, my parents wanted the "proof we were there" picture. So here it is. It was a great show, especially this scene!


Even though I know I am the "good son", Patrick and Maura always seem to make my mom smile even more. Maybe she realizes that it is Maura's turn to deal with Patrick, instead of her. Wait? I wonder how big she will smile when I get married?


Even after the show my family was all smiles. Nothing like an "action shot" of strolling through the streets on NYC, eh?


I know you could not see my mother in the last shot. *Hint: She is SHORT! So I give you another shot of her, just in case you missed her already.


Well, as they say "Life goes on"...and so it does. Thanks for stopping by for a visit.

See you next post!

Good to hear that you are doing well, Shorty. Don't look now, but Nick and Jason are going to PT school, too. I be there 2, just know that I'm loungin' in 70 degrees with the sun shining enjoying life before I start terrorizing my brain cells, again. Take care.
