a nick update at 3:30 p.m. this afternoon via phone as I have not seen him in 24 plus hours...

me:  Hi, Nick.  I don't understand why you never want to be at home with dad and me?
nick:  It's because of the  Blackhawks.
me:  Nick, the Hawks did not play last night.
nick: Oh, well once the season is over, I'll be home more.
me:  Where are you watching the game tonight?
nick: Maybe home...I don't know.  See you in awhile.
me:  Okay!
