I wonder if men not placing as high a premium on homemaker skills in a mate might have something to do with the sons of working moms actually having to learn how to do housework for themselves rather than be waited on hand and foot by a female relative at all times.

Tierney's such a jackass. I can't waste my brain cells reading him, I only have so many. What can I say? It was him or the Budweiser.

Leif was being funny last night. He dicided that running into things is funny so he kept running into the sofa thud and then into the wall THUD. Then he was demand that I laugh because it was funny. Sort of patter-patter-patter-THUD! whump "You laugh daddy!" repeated about 20 times.
