Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Anyone have a favorite peach cobbler recipe? I plan to make cobbler tomorrow.

Hilarious SNL opening. And Tina Fey was eerie good .

No cobbler recipe here, sorry.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Watching SNL now. Excited to see how Bobby Moynihan does, he is adorable.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Oh, big news from yesterday: I can eat (soft) toasts now.

Yayyyyyy.

Dangit. I knew going to bed at 10 would mean an early morning.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Go, Matilda, with the cuteness and the syntax!

Now tagless for your comfort.

"I love you" is just such a HUGE emotional payoff with kids. I'm trying to remember that when both mine were up before 6 a.m.

This morning I had to read an email from a cousin calling Obama a "pseudo-intellectual Muslim." Hell hath no wrath like I do when I have to respond to the Stupid before my coffee.

I doubt I'll be welcome at the next family reunion.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

DAMN, if the rest of SNL was as good as that opening skit, I'd start watching again. That was note-perfect, and worked on so many levels.

I hope Hillary watches it and laughs until she cries.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

if the rest of SNL was as good as that opening skit,

Yeah, not so much.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

she said "I love you," she ate and loved broccoli tonight, and now she's dancing around the living room to Joan Jett. She posits that a toddler could not be any better even if she were dipped in platinum.

I agree with JZ!

Dylan is many months away from sentences, but has been adding words to his vocabulary at a pretty alarming rate. He doesn't use all of them consistantly or meaningfully yet, but his repetition skills are MAD, yo. (Except for the letter R, which he can't do at all. So his Auntie 'Rina is "Mina!" and the Roomba is "Moomba!" When you're 15 months old, everything has exclamation points!)
