Happy Labor Day! Communing. Why are you reading this today? Go! Go outside! Good God, man, it’s almost winter! (However, if you’re not reading this until Tuesday or later, I’m quite hurt- wounded, really- at your disloyalty.) There, now. I think I’ve sufficiently alienated everyone. Onward! The reason that I’m able to post today is because of my daughter’s proclivity towards 4am Beanie Bear tea parties in her crib. Thusly, she faceplanted at an ungodly early 10am for her nap, {Read More}

Let me be among the top five hundred to welcome you into 2011, three days in. I am deeply consumed with confusion over my absent flying car, meal tablet, robotic housekeeper…or any housekeeper at all, for that matter. (Do you hear that, P.J.? Do not feel limited by any type of maid. I would take Amelia Bedelia at this point.) Our New Year’s Eve was pretty normal and quiet, by rest home standards. The three of us stayed in our jammies- {Read More}
