Wow. First grade.
Also: good luck to Kat and kids on first day of pre-school.
Woo hoo for Msbelle and Mac for normal family weekend.
And my niece has her first day of class at NYU today. I'm so proud and excited for her.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Because books.
First grader! I'm still trying to process the fact that Jake will be nineteen on the tenth. ::boggles::
Amy, has she had her eyes checked recently?
Good idea. She did, last year at school, but given my eyesight, it's probably worth checking.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
They do. Stop feeding Ryan nutritious stuff, otherwise they get smart and grow up and leave and stuff.
So that's his nefarious plan! We may have caught him just in time, he already understands "Where are the penguins?" in TWO languages. Wanting to borrow the car is surely not far behind.
Though Emeline recently wanted to know WHY people don't live with their parents forever and that she "would never ever" leave me and Joe alone without her - ever.
Aww. Though she does sound a little like the special guest star on Criminal Minds.

so I head for my car after I stop for breakfast this morning, and there's a trail of liquid leading out from underneath. I should have stuck my finger in it to see what that liquid was, but The Nile Cruise seized me and I got in and started the engine, praying I wasn't about to go up in a ball of fire. I obviously didn't, but there are slightly different clunky noises among the other clunky noises. When I leave tonight I'll investigate the oil and the radiator. I hope it's not the radiator, we just had a new one put in.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Bah. Sometime overnight my jaw popped partially out of joint, and now I can't get it back. Am waiting for my dentist to call back to see if he can do anything. Else maybe I can find an orthodontist.
edit to add whitefont....

A very funny commentator on the Salt Lake Tribune (the "liberal" paper here) went to Burning Man.
It's funny and touching and the commentary gives me hope for the area.

Bah. Dentist said there's probably not much he can do. He said usually things should go back to where they belong on their own. Also said to try applying heat.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yikes, tommyrot!
Hooray, Kate!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Ouch, tommyrot! Are you stuck with your mouth open? That happened to my jaw once, and my mouth got stuck open. My then-boyfriend couldn't stop making snide remarks. It finally slipped back into place on its own.
