It's Spring Break in the Holt household! Yeah, not for me. #1 son is doing basketball camp at the HS this week daily from 8AM-4PM. #2 son chose the sleep in late and play around the house option.

The boys will have the option of doing HS in 3 years, but their sports interests would make it desirable to stay as seniors. Taking off for college at 16 or 17 will not lead to playing time. Academics and social age are two parts of the equation, but sports are a big deal to them too. (I'm trying so hard to understand this jock thing)

Buffista babies, yay! Do we have a name yet?

Fruit loops:

Wake up natterbugs! I have coffee, tea, bagels, and muffins here.

[Edited to wave at Laura. I find it annoying when some people in the house are on vacation, but others aren't. Everybody should have vacation time!]

Mallory James - see the Beep Me thread in the upper right.

eta: Hi Nilly!

Bestest xpost is to edit to say hi to Nilly while she edits to say hi to me! I'm all smiley now.

Bestest x-post is me seeing your edit and wanting to type that x-posting "hi"s is the best x-post, and coming to your post saying the same thing.

I wish I had time to join the ongoing discussion, which seems really interesting. Sigh. Maybe I'll actually catch up, though. I hadn't done even that in a while.

Thank you for pitying my slowness.

Hey, Nilly!

I just googled "center cannot hold" because I couldn't work out why I was associating it with Chinua Achebe. That question is now answered but not before the coincidence that victor's name pops up in the blurb of the second google hit!

Awwww, it sounds cute, adorable, and wonderful. Awwwww. I'm feeling warm and fuzzy and now contemplating reproduction myself.

Mallory James...
