My sister is looking up our home town on wikipedia -- were are chatting on google -- about silly things

glad they are baby pictures to look at between lines

You mean the one that goes

Early in the morning risin' to the street
Light me up that cigarette and I strap shoes on my feet
Got to find a reason a reason things went wrong
Got to find a reason why my money's all gone
But I got a dalmatian and I can still get high
I can play the guitar like a mother fuckin riot
Life is too short so love the one you got cause you might get runover or you might get shot
Never start no static
I just get it off my chest
Never had to battle with no bulletproof vest
Take a small example
A tip from me take all of your money and give it up to charity
Lovin's what I got
It's within my reach
And the Sublime style's still straight from Long Beach
It all comes back to you you're gonna get what you deserve
Try and test that you're bound to get served
Love's what I got
Don't start a riot
You feel it when the dance gets hot
That's why I don't cry when my dog runs away
I don't get angry at the bills I have to pay
I don't get angry when my Mom smokes pot, hits
the bottle and goes back to the rock
Fuckin and fighting it's all the same
Livin' with Louie dog's the only way to stay sane
Let the lovin come back to me

That one?

That's the one, j. Yeah. McDonald's turned that song into a jingle.

Happy Birthday, Teppy!

Just for Suzi.

Awwwwwwwww. Ded. Just ded.

Before I died, I spent the day at Sonoma State for K-Bug's orientation. They have a completely separate program for the parents from what the kids go through. I could have easily passed on coming, but she wanted me here. More tomorrow. Oh joy.

We are in Carlsbad grabbing some food. About 60 more miles to go.

Continued ~ma to ND & KT. Patience, understanding, and health~ma for your pa.

okay, so I finished watching the some of the stuff on my tivo, and go to live TV. TV is on Showtime, which is showing the Adult Video Awards. Woman is being interviewed, and I come in just as she says "Oh, my god, I'm more nervous about this [interview] than having a cock in my ass." Um, okay. I just had to share.

Can I get some stock market stability~ma for the next month or so? Even the next three weeks?

We've been in contact with the accountant who's distributing Schroedinger's Inheritance. The stock is there, we know how many shares we're getting, and he's transferring it to us on July 7. At its current value, it would do all the things I've talked about since learning this was a possibility: get us out of debt, enable us to trade in our 13-year-old Ford Contour for something more reliable and fuel-efficient, start Annabel's college fund, and give us a respectable down payment for a house in the next year or two.

Problem is, the whole market and particularly the industry this stock is in are looking awfully volatile of late. So there's a small chance, probably a minuscule one, that the bottom could drop out of the stock price between now and the point we have the power to sell it. Part of me expects that to happen--the part of me that feels like I don't deserve anything I didn't earn, and that what I "earned" was this debt, and that the universe isn't going to let me repay it with anything but my own blood, toil, sweat, and tears. But that part of me is a downer, and I'm hoping the universe will let us have this rather large measure of grace and mercy as long as we faithfully promise to be more responsible in the future.
