Mullins out for season opener (Family Obligations)

All:

Because family matters more than football, I will be unable to attend this Sunday for the season opener at BW-3. I know I tricked you all with that Facebook invite. Ha!

My wife's crackpot of an aunt has planned a surprise 80th birthday party for Grandma Betty at 12:30 p.m. at some park God knows where in Lafayette.

Many things are wrong about this, I know. But Betty did provide us with a large sum of money in the card box at our wedding so I should show my appreciation for her 80 years. On the whole I don't have a problem with this except the 80th birthday isn't until the middle of December - THREE MONTHS AWAY. While I won't accuse the aunt of tempting fate, I will say she is a fucking shitty planner. I mean these people are Colts fans - mix in a schedule much.

So other than me being kidnapped Sunday morning about 6 a.m. or someone knocking off Candy (last name redacted) of Lafayette -- enjoy the game without me Sunday.

I'll be at a park. Outside. Somewhere in the middle of Lafayette. Fighting young children. Eating shitty macaroni salads and store-bought shitty cookies. Hating my life. Praying for a rain cloud that will get me close to a TV.

I Fail.

J. Mullins
