This Is Why I Went There Friday

I trusted her. And while I may have to stop at the gas station and buy whatever the fake sex pills they sell she wants to, once again, see me in the same conditions we were on Friday before I leave for Texas. The living room is now filled with the smoke coming out of my ears from over thinking this one.

Maybe It's Just Me

and this may be a good idea for a product but to me they all look like they belong to some strange cult wearing these things

I Am Thankful

for all of you

Today in Psychic Children

R: Mommy, when are you going back to the other house? Me: Well, whenever you need to be dropped off or picked up, I go there. R: No, I mean, to live? Me: I'm not going to. J: Not ever? Me: No. ...Followed by about 30 seconds of silence and then random, mostly cheerful conversations about math and science. Updated Showing me her art projects not an hour later: J: And this is where you can put your ring! Me: ...I don't have a ring. J: *Examines my hands* Where is it? Me: Remember, I put it in the quilt? R: And it got lost? (They didn't know about that) Me: Yes, someone cut the quilt and took it. R: Why? Me: I guess they thought they needed a ring more than I needed my art. But then Papi gave me his ring, which was very nice of him. J: Can I see it?

Lessons in Bad Parenting: Lesson 6

We'll call this one "Kids are really freaking stupid." I would like suggestions as to an alternate name for The Boy in light of yesterday's events. I like the way that DCup changes the name of her youngest Spawn depending on behavior--from Cupcake to Resident Evil. I want something along those lines. The Boy plays all the time, every chance he gets, with the boy down the street. His name is Cesar and I've mentioned him before. Cesar lives exactly three doors down from us on our side of the street. So, we don't really worry about The Boy heading on down there on his own. As a matter of fact, The Boy has very definite limits to his ability to roam. He's allowed exactly from one speed bump just the south of our house to the speed bump just north of our house. That's the extent of his free area all of which is easily within eye shot of our front porch. See below: Yesterday, The Boy went out at about 3:30 or so to go play with Cesar. At 4:00, Ces

Closure

It's that conversation, six months later, that goes, Maybe I shouldn't have answered And Maybe I shouldn't have asked And Do you want to make the call, or should I?

I've had the conversation with her she won't like that first trip to the vets. I've opened the door twice and she has walked outside and came back in. I may have a cat. Ceiling Cat help both of us.

Screw The Election

Michele gets a two week reprieve from Chemo treatments. As much as I want to wake up with Barry X as Prez I'll take my sister getting a little better any day. I know it is selfish but I muted the talking heads and talked with Michele for almost an hour and it was even better than McCain just coming out and conceding.
