Doesn't winter seem more like archiving season?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Emmett can walk away from even a championship loss and be laughing and goofing with his friends minutes later. Not that he's lost a lot of championship games. In fact, I don't know that he's lost in a game for a championship. We've come in third and lower, but never second. Huh. Anyway, he's still lost important tournament and all-star games and it doesn't faze him.

He starts school on Wednesday. They start with a short week, and then they've got another short week with Labor Day weekend to help ease them into the year.

He's in 8th grade. His last year of middle school. Next year Emmett's going to be in High School! Yikes.

Heh. Good one, but it's pretty obvious that can't really be true.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I need a good, hard shove to meet my book deadline this weekend. Help me out???

The finish line is right there, Allyson. You can see it. You can almost smell it. Finishing is great. Ohhhh, the relief. Doooooo it! GO GO GO!

Heh. Good one, but it's pretty obvious that can't really be true.

Seriously. He's going to be a teenager in one month.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Go, Allyson! Write your tail off!

When I was a kid playing soccer I was on a team with twins and another dude who were flat awesome. We went undefeated all the years I played. I so never learned sportsmanship.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just saw an ad for a drug for acid reflux. It's called Aciphex.

Pronounced "ass effects." Does no one think of these things?

I am now imagining a documentary on Aciphex farms, with thousands of asses cooped up in tiny cages....

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Abby and Nate start early!

We started last week (short week, though...this is our first full week).

Much middle school ~ma to them.

All kinds of middle school ~ma!!!

Next year Emmett's going to be in High School!

That is unpossible. Sorry, but totally not true.
