This is kinda cool:

Please note: most of these states I visited before starting high school, and then I had a few trips East. Some states (hello, Nebraska!) I barely touched during a road trip, in that case to go to Iowa for a wedding.

My two boys spent an hour or more in their room last night, “pimping”
their hot wheels with Sharpies.

Yes, they said they were pimping their rides.

My son is playing football this year for the first time.

You know, smash-mouth football.

So you have to get a physical before things get going, and since
practice starts this week (see my “Jesus it’s hot out here” tweets
from yesterday), he went to his pediatrician today.

Just get the form so he can play, right?

Uh, no. We now have a cardiology referral, and he’s borderline
hypertensive. Oh, and check his cholesterol, too.

I’m trying hard not to freak the hell out, I don’t want him to see
that. But shit.
