It is getting close to his birthday. I love Greenblatt's work but Greer is so right about Mrs. Shakespeare getting short shrift by his biographers.
Shit. I just heard the patter of tiny feet. That means there is a kid on my side of the bed.
I've tried to march in the Slayer Pride Parade ...

Lucky! I don't get to hear the patter of tiny feet so much as feel them as Matilda kicks me in the kidneys. Well, she's grown now so there was a period of covering my junk and now she kicks me in the knees.
She and Emmett have been super cute the last couple days as they chased each other up and down the hall dueling each other with their "powers." By which I mean: socks.
Emmett suited up with boxer shorts on his head, socks hanging from his ears and socks on his hands. Throwing socks. Matilda retaliates by covering her face, extending her hands and yelling "Pchow! Pchow!" or throwing socks back while yelping "Sock Power!"
In other good news, Matilda's school pictures came back and one is super cute.

I'm afraid to go to bed for fear that tomorrow will be a repeat of today.
Please let tomorrow be better.
Argh.

Cute! Liv and Owen duel it out, too. Liv seems to favor Ice Man's freeze powers at the moment.
I'm fortunate that I can always sneek into whatever bed the kids abandon and get some sleep.
Which I should be doing now instead of watcing Office Space and surfing the Blackberry. Our internet is down--that should be cause enough to sleep.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I've never uploaded a photo of my cat to anything except Flickr. I feel like I've failed at Internet 101.

I am watching ASL versions of pop songs on Youtube. I kind of love them: [link] (note translations in the notes).

If I get nothing done today, I blame all of you. Reading B1 from the beginning, and cracking up at this post from Jesse:
Hey, I have a bureaucratic question: Can the FAQ come off the geocities site now?

Really, the internets is just a series of tubes and cats.
My policy of mostly staying out of Bureaucracy is a sound one, I think. It's not that I don't care -- I do, so much in fact that it gets me highly emotional. About the best I can do instead is try to be a good B.org citizen.
