The Saga Continues

Jack lost his 4th tooth this morning. Well, I actually jerked it out. (He asked me.) It was really icky. It took two tries. We’ll see if the tooth fairy can manage to show up tonight.

    You’re a braver woman then I. I think I will throw up if Brennan needs me to do something like that.

The Offical end of the MOY Quest

The girl cherub lost her second tooth Saturday night. There were tears Sunday morning as she awoke to find that the tooth fairy. did. not. leave. her. ANYTHING! I actually blamed it on her, because she left her tooth pillow in the living room. Clearly the tooth fairy can’t be expected to find her tooth...

    You’re so not alone. I did the exact same thing once–fell asleep and completely forgot.

    I also once left all the wrapping paper & stuff from last minute Christmas present preparation right in the middle of the living room. When the kids found it Christmas morning, I told them Santa just needed a little help wrapping stuff because of his busy schedule.

    This made me laugh. No worries, I constantly disappoint the wee ones! I figure this will give them a reason to despise me as teenagers 😉

    Jeff actually emailed the tooth fairy and she brought the goods the. same. day. Then she told me she KNEW the tooth fairy was real now, because I was with her the whole time and it couldn’t have been me. I nearly spewed DDP at that.
    Nice to see ya around here John.

My Really Crappy, Shitty, No Good, Awful Day

Today we rode bikes to school, as we do most days. I, because I was born with some sort of disorder that causes my brain to roll out of my ear in decision making situations, decided to ride the back way. Less traffic I thought. Stupid I am. It took way longer than expected, included...

    Oh, honey. That does sound like a harrowing experience. But you’re a good mom for checking them out of school after that.

Back to the Grind

Beach House ’08 is officially in the books and all that’s left to do is, well, make the book. I head back to work today and I’m about as excited about that as I am about having a lobotomy. I’m drowning under a pile of files to upload that I have successfully ignored for the...

    Hi ho, hi ho, it’s back to work you go. S***.

    Glad you made it home safe and didn’t get eaten by the jelyfish. P.S. I think I should be involved in Beach House ’09. I’m just sayin’. I was a little jealous. Love you!

This is what happens when you give a 7 year old a 5 hour road trip, an entire back seat to himself and a digital camera with video capabilities. You have been warned.

    Is it possible to giggle and vomit from nausea at the same time? But I won’t – because I suddenly feel happy. Wow – that kid’s GOOD.
