That's a lot of cab rides, JZ.
That's not what making out sounds like -- unless I'm doing it wrong?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh JZ, I'm sorry. I promise that you're still an adult human being, and doing the best that you can under difficult circumstances.

{{{JZ}}} How much is Matilda sleeping at night now? I hope things get better soon.

What is even happening?
Oh JZ, you poor dears.
That first year after Ben was born, our finances were horrific. We were living on our extended credit. By the time he was 1 and a half, we had not only adapted, but managed to buy a house. Things will get better. They will. I'm sorry they're so hard, right now.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Well, there was the one cab ride, the $300 in extra keys and security systems for the car after I locked Matilda inside it, the $1300 in additional repairs of leaky valves and bald tires the car turned out to also need when I brought it in for the keys, and whatever the bill will be for the 911 service call to open the car and rescue Matilda, because my AAA-like service is through my auto insurance rather than AAA and all the info, including the unlisted 800 number, was in my purse, which was also locked in the car, so it was 911 or nothing.
Also, I dropped my phone in the (full of soapy water) kitchen sink this morning, and left the breast pump in Matilda's stroller at her day care.

Oh, and JZ, do you know Ask Moxie? Very apropos, today's topic: [link]
Also, when I am exceptionally exhausted, I reread this post, because I know somebody understands. I have been exactly here myself: [link]

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Oh, JZ. {{{Love}}} I am so sorry, bebe.
You should totally get a do-over.

sj, she had lengthened her sleep cycle out a bit last month, but since daycare started she's back to every 3 hours (not 3 hours of sleep at a time, but waking every 3 hours for half an hour of feeding, changing and soothing back to sleep, then rinse and repeat exactly 3 hours after the previous wake-up).

Oh, honey, you can cry on my bosom. Dang, I would be so panicked if I locked my baby in the car. Luckily I don't drive. (Although I have accidentally neglected to fasten the staps on the carseat for the entire ride home from the mall.)

{{{JZ}}} I have no idea what else to say, so I will just give more hugs.
