"It's such a good feeling..."

Cal watched Mr. Rogers today! (The clouds parted and the heavens opened up!) I'm not even gonna front... I LOVE Mr. Rogers and I would still watch that crap right now if it was on prime time. I am dead serious! I was waiting for one of them to catch on to it so that there was something we could watch together. The show bored them terribly up until today. Mr. Rogers is so precious and so genuine. I remember wanting to be related to him when I was little. I aspired to BE him and I still remember most of the songs.

(What of it? My semi-cool facade melted away after I started wearing a kid on each hip. I have learned to embrace my inner-dweeb!)

I'm not kidding that even still to this day that if I hear a funny noise in the middle of the night or something super creepy like that, I will immediately squeeze my eyes shut and think of Mr. Rogers. It's true. This might mean that I have issues, but I'm cool with that because my love for Freddybaby runs that deep and true.
HEY RICHIE! GIVE MY LOVE TO ALL THOSE HOOTERS GIRLS! HAHA!

Mr. Rogers was always my absolute FAVORITE. I literally cried and was extremely upset for quite some time when I learned of his passing. You are not alone. I haven't introduced the boys to him yet for fear of rejection. It would break my heart if they didn't like him.

I heard a cool story about Mr. Rogers. He lived in Pittsburgh and in the 1990s, his car was stolen. Because of what was in it the thieves realized who the owner was and they returned it with a note of apology. (I'm not making this up -- the Wall Street Journal reported on it).

I used to love to watch Mr. Rogers too! I even went to see him in person and got an autographed photo. Don't know where it is now...probably somewhere in my mom's house with all the rest of my childhood things.
