Earl of Sandwich

Anders now recognizes ".com," so he says, for example, earlofsandwich.com.  I also forgot to mention the numbers game that Anders plays when we eat out as we did tonight at the Earl of Sandwich.  After we finish eating, Anders and I go outside as Anna finishes and we find letters from 0-9.  We find these numbers on windows, signs, and license plates.  It's what Anders loves to do. 
He spells and reads A LOT of words.  He especially loves to find "Do Not" in sentences.  Anders loves the rules, and loves knowing what he's not supposed to do.
Anders is very interested in learning everyone's age, so if you have an age that you would like him to remember or if you fear that you might forget your own age, let me know and I'll have Anders commit it to memory for you.  The one age for which he has a strange blind spot is that of Grandma Dorene.  I'm not sure why that one doesn't stick.  Anna thinks it's because Anders does not believe that she could possibly be her real age. 
Anders also know right from left.  You can call out right or left and he will know what you mean. 
I have him saying "Rock Chalk Jayhawk" for the NCAA Tournament.  Anders loves the numbers on the basketball games that I watch. 
He calls his uncle Matt any time he grabs a banana to eat.  He now even talks about texting Matt after he calls on the banana and before he eats the banana.
I can't just talk about Anders since this is me, so more on the Earl of Sandwich.  It's a cross between Potbelly and Panera, a real Panera is next door and a Potbelly is across the street next to Whole Foods.  So it has the free wifi and the many leather bound books and chairs, but it has the oddest franchising pattern I've ever seen.  It has three locations in San Antonio, the one in Sugar Land, it's in a few airports like Philly and DET.  They have one on Manhattan, in London, and Paris.  They are opening locations in Boca, AC, and the Boston Common.  It just makes no sense!  A casual dining French bistro franchised throughout Texas makes more sense to me than the Earl of Sandwich's business model.
I'm watching Hi-uh State play CinSUhnahtuh.
Did anyone else see the story about the giant bolder that crushes two cars and part of a house in Athens this week?!  That boulder was three blocks from where we used to live on Carpenter St.  The boulder fell on a street on which I would travel when I went to my Soviet history seminars at a professor's house.  A boulder, a giant boulder!!!  The crazy stuff that happens in that place never ceases to amaze me.  I'm sure the crazy boulder has rallied the Athens and OU community for tomorrow's Sweet 16 game between UNC and Ohio.  The Bobcats have an outside chance in this one.  I don't think they will win, but they should give Ol' Roy a run for his money.
The sun has finally returned.  The weather is great here, but it's been warmer back home than down here of late so I can't brag.
