[SPEAKER_04]: Now, here's my...

[SPEAKER_04]: I certainly have gotten on people in the past for not really preparing for broadcasts and actually being very last minute.

[SPEAKER_04]: And I wasn't last minute today, but I am mad at myself for this reason and this reason only.

[SPEAKER_04]: I am making things difficult, just like this, that don't need to be difficult.

[SPEAKER_04]: I make things the technology nowadays is so simple that I go into a sheet, flimsy, motel room, and I plug two things into a computer and here I am.

[SPEAKER_04]: Yet.

[SPEAKER_04]: because of my lack of preparation.

[SPEAKER_04]: Even when it comes to getting in the shower, getting out of the shower, putting my shoes on and going down to the car, where I was going, stubby, stubby, I'm gonna kill you.

[SPEAKER_04]: Light out.

[SPEAKER_04]: Can we make, can you mail him?

[SPEAKER_04]: I drive in.

[SPEAKER_05]: We could have lunch and take your dog.

[SPEAKER_04]: I'll take you out to lunch and I'll give you my dog.

[SPEAKER_05]: No, if you're driving, I'll take you to lunch.

[SPEAKER_04]: I mean, you know, if you're taking this dog off my hands, I'll buy you lunch.

[SPEAKER_03]: The boys have a big game today. [SPEAKER_04]: Did they get sleep? [SPEAKER_04]: I think they did better than Carl and I did. [SPEAKER_04]: And I think in descending order, I think it was Michael and Dylan. [SPEAKER_04]: And Carla, then Carla, then me. [SPEAKER_04]: I was up at four, about one, 15, then four, 30, then [SPEAKER_04]: 515, 530, and then I was up for good. [SPEAKER_05]: Do either of the boys snore the dog snores? [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, you're used to that, I was not even aware of the boys. [SPEAKER_04]: Okay, good. [SPEAKER_04]: Wasn't even aware of the boys other than we got to the hotel. [SPEAKER_04]: We told them both to take a shower and get into, you know, get into bed and the giggling and the fun and the giggling and the fun. [SPEAKER_04]: And then, [SPEAKER_04]: they went off to sleep relatively quickly and so they are ready to go there. [SPEAKER_04]: They're just put the uniform on head over. [SPEAKER_04]: Everybody is down in the, I won't, well, I won't mention the facility, I'm in, but I think I mentioned the yesterday. [SPEAKER_04]: It doesn't matter.

[SPEAKER_04]: $25 for the for each night. [SPEAKER_05]: Wow for both of it all. [SPEAKER_05]: Each? [SPEAKER_03]: Don't know. [SPEAKER_05]: I think it's just one charge. [SPEAKER_04]: I think it's just one charge. [SPEAKER_04]: It's just one charge. [SPEAKER_04]: I think it is one charge. [SPEAKER_04]: So that's good. [SPEAKER_03]: And then how was the drive? [SPEAKER_04]: a baseball gear and we got a late start and it was tight because of the equipment and all that and all in all Mrs. Romero was the wheel person and it started out she said do you want to drive?
