I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Playing Vader is a privilege not a punishment in our household. I do love that Grace's halloween costume was Darth Vader.

My favorite thing is that when she wants to sign Darth Vader, she signs brother and then does this intense, heavy breath through her trache.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Cable bills are a bitch. Who's good at that? Vortex? I don't think I've ever gotten shit, and now I realise I don't remember when my HBO introductory period runs out.

I think it might be Vortex and I need lessons although technically I am supposed to be dropping cable now that the racing season is over. But lessons might help me get a good deal when all I want is one ridiculously specialized channel. The rest is just baggage. Occasionally awesome baggage but baggage.

Kat, do you think if Noah were older he'd make Grace play and be Vader? Or am I just a bad person for thinking that? Because I would totally make my sister with a trache be Vader *all* the time.

I'd be a bad person too. Grace would be excellently evil and she could boss her brother around!

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

Oh, man, your kids have totally outnerded you. I don't think there's any catching up to that...

Kat! That cinnamon roll was delicious. I think you've inspired me to try making them. For something I love so much, I've never given the, a shot from scratch. What recipe did you use? What it a time consuming one? I was looking at CI ones. They have a quick one that doesn't look too bad.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Comcast has such a lock on my building that I can only get a better rate by dropping services, and I already wish I had more channels! @@

Because books.

I want this dress and somewhere to wear it. With pink heels!

Pumpkin cinnamon rolls. It wasn't really time consuming because I did the dough the night before I baked them. It's as time consuming as any yeasted bread.

I love making stuff like that, but I don't really eat them. We have a dozen left in the freezer now. Also, since I had to figure out the calories in them for Gracie's blend (600+ per roll), I'm less enamored at the thought of eating one.

Amy, that dress is super adorable.

Pumpkin cinnamon rolls! See, I'd make those but no one would eat them but me. Which is the case around here with way too much of the baked stuff I want to make.

Sara gave me permission to go wild with her birthday cake, though.

But I don't even like cinnamon rolls! I made them as thanksgiving thing before K's birthday.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I actually can't think of anything particularly nerdy I've done lately. Someone take my temperature!
