I'm trying to be rational about the cutiehead. We do have young kids and they may possibly not be the best for him if he's jumpy or nervous. I hope he's good for us. He may be a great addition to the family.
You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

I didn't weigh in on this before, but I really love Emma Watson's haircut. More importantly, in reading her talking about it, I love how normal and grounded she sounds. I think she's beautiful no matter what, but she looks lovely and she sounds like someone I'd love to talk to.

I hope the dog works out, Cash. He's a little cutie.
I have spent 10 hours this week out among the humans. That's a quarter of a normal work week and I am totally exhausted. And I wasn't working, just being sociable! How do all you working people do it? And then also strip paint and take care of children and generally do things other than sleep. It's amazing.
Rhetorical question but I will presumably have to figure that out before too long and it is giving me a wiggins.

Stripping paint is solitary. And frankly, my week wore me the hell out. I'm relieved my weekend is only laundry, yardwork and manicure. And stripping. But I have no idea how the hell I am doing this. I haven't had a relaxed weekend in ages. Some is house, some is choices. And it is telling this month, I'm kinda fried at work.

I'm kind of ignoring all the stuff I've got coming in the month ahead. Trip to Indiana with the kids, trip to Michigan and a fundraiser dinner at the end of the month. Then derby try outs. If I think about it too much, I'll freak.

Right. Don't compare my insides to other people's outsides.

Love the derby article and picture, Cash. Y'all look very cool.

-t, I keep comparing myself now to a couple years ago, and I... whoa. I don't know how I've built all this STUFF into my schedule and make it happen. But I did. And it is exhausting, but clearly I am getting something from it. But given vacation schedules, I'm going to the market alone tomorrow, and instead of relishing it, I'm kinda feeling lonesome. Lonesome to get up and get moving on a weekend, wtf?!
I still don't know how parents do it, but I have some small glimpse: because you will it. And sacrifice other shit.

Heh. My mother would agree with you after having both grandsons (one 3) at the house...even with their dad there. She'll cope next summer.
