I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Isn't it R rated? I remember seeing red band trailers with much tit.

oh, I am absolutely not letting him see it, nor am I seeing it. But I see one commercial and the name is stuck in my head.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

DH has been at a conference all day, so I took the kids to Target and then took Isaac to a birthday party. And then had to go by two other Targets to satisfy his need for a Legos Power Miner toy.

Day: 1, me: 0

Now I must grade.

Day: 2, me: -1

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'mma rent it.

That was my plan too.

I just ran out of Criminal minds to watch, and I won't get any more until at least Wednesday. This makes me sad.

after a smooth 6 days, mac has just thrown up a wall. the homework he promised me he would do tonight - not gonna happen. he has stomped off to bed (in my bed). I'll let him try to get to sleep alone and watch more of the olympics. pouty mc pout pout. I was reigning princess of pouterville as a kid, he has miles to go.

That sounds like something one of my kids would do. I find it so striking how naked kids are in their power plays: I reject you! But STAY CLOSE so I know you're still there.

I once "punished" my mother by sleeping in a big basket. Next to my bed. With my pillow and comforter. I was convinced she would suffer. Instead, she took pictures once I was asleep.

If I wanted to punish him I would go sleep in his bed, but I know he actually is terrorized by fear if he wakes up in my bed alone and have no desire to put him there. So again, I will share the bed with his 4'6" floppiness and two attention starved 14 lb cats. Restful sleep - we r doin it rong.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Hi, people! I have some questions, and I thought this might be the place to ask them.

1) Why is two-man bobsled failing to interest me? Despite German butt-slapping pre-event. I thought I loved every Olympic event. But this is pretty boring.

2) My girl-cat is complaining loudly about something? What is bothering her? She stops whenever I look at her, but clearly something is driving her (and therefore me) bonkers. I suspect a ghost bug, but I'm unsure.

3) Should I cave and buy another book on my nook? (Untold problem about ereaders: Fewer checks on your book impulse shopping.) I was supposed to be on a budget this month.

4) Should I keep this pretty sports bra I ordered? Or should I get a size up, which comes in the color I actually wanted?

And finally 5) How have you been?

I await your wisdom.
