Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They love the glowy batons! She did them again at that concert. And my dad got the nail polish last time, too. He's like the ideal Christine Lavin audience member.

I can still wear linen tomorrow if it's raining, right??

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

America had never been at war in an Arabic country.

Didn't they do something or other on the shores of Tripoli at some stage? The Barbary War or something?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Jesse, linen is dependent on the *season,* not the weather.

What's a random person? Two-Face?

If you knew sushi, like I knew sushi...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks, Steph. First-day-of-school jitters.

You'll do FG, Jesse, just because you're you.

I did make the frittata after all. It's not exactly a work of art, but it's darn yummy.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

The Barbary War or something?

Yes, billytea. I'm older than The Barbary War. Grit is my younger cousin.

I don't want to be Superman. I want to stay little and be next to Mommy.

My son just came downstairs to tell me Amanda won't let him sleep.

This is my daughter's robot/doll, the one that carries on limited conversations, smiles and cries, and so forth. She's supposed to go right to sleep if you squeeze her left hand, but it doesn't work. You have to talk to her until you get to the point in the conversation tree where she asks what you want to do; then you can tell her to go to sleep.

She was a Christmas present, and something triggered her early in the morning on the 26th -- I heard "Mommy! Can we play?" and then my daughter's groggy voice: "No! Go to sleep! Go to sleep!"

Which means, I guess, that she's getting some of her payback early.
