Eggs benedict and fruit cup. I am envious.

What Barb said.

I think it's almost time for dinner. Just one more article to read until I'll get to it.

Semi-gronklies. Atlanta-host has been plagued by nightmares of being pursued through the streets of Atlanta by a very high-tech assassin who kills HUNDREDS of people while trying to kill him (my host). 4 nights of this. He didn't tell me until today. I just had nice dreams of pleasant times at the waterpark and last night out at a birthday party.

Am now watching History channel while slowly prepping for a day of boardgames. I will be certain to regale the collective with stories of our BSG game here. It will cause merriment and much interest in the boardgame. Your evil will be spread further.

I need fortitude. My pain in the ass SiL is coming over-- the family is visiting from Pensacola, so it's not like I can avoid her. Kind of a polar opposite to me in so may ways with the added fun of being a whackjob of the Not Fun variety.

I have to make nice because it pleases my MiL, whom I love, although she has such rose-colored hopes that everyone get along. She doesn't grok that it's okay to not get along with everyone.

I just had nice dreams of pleasant times at the waterpark

Clearly my brain is still in bed (i.e. gutter), as when I read that, I thought SH was talking watersports. No clue why.

I awoke from a dream of snogging Kate Hudson. And no matter how hard I tried to go back to sleep, she did not reappear. Stupid bladder. Bah.

Now I am waiting for the glass technician to come and replace my windshield. Wheee. State inspection is due, so I figured get it replaced now, before I fail inspection, or have to stick a sticker to a busted window. Hopefully this will not make me late for game night with strangers from the glowey-glass.

JZ's mom is coming to visit this weekend, a subject which has been much discussed with Matilda.

So we woke up this morning and were cuddling in bed, and I said...

Me: Hey, guess who's coming to visit today?
Matilda: Lily?!
Me: No, Nana is coming!
Matilda: And then Lily?

Matilda has priorities.

we were headed to the zoo with I, who goes often with her grandma. A clue as to what they do there is in this conversation:

"And when we get to the zoo we can do lots of stuff!"

"yes?"

"Yes! We can get ice cream! and pretzels! and cookies!"

I don't see the need in a Queen of Hearts costume for children. They know what's right for them, and they want it NOW. In case of system failure, it's all "off with their heads!".

I cannot get how this counts as childish; to me, it's an important feature in a human being.
