I can fit my fist in my mouth, but I never thought it was meant to be sexy. More like I have freakishly small hands or a freakishly big mouth.

I remember reading an article about people who had overdraft protection, got to the end of their checking account without realizing it, and then made a whole bunch of little purchases (coffee, newspaper, lunch, etc.) with the check card and got charged a fee for each one, adding up to several hundred dollars over just a few days. There was one man who had a developmental disability, and he and his family had agreed that he could get a check card, but not a credit card, so that there would be a limit on his spending, since he wasn't very good at remembering what he'd spent and how much money he had left. They asked the bank to decline the card if he tried to spend more than he had in his account, and the bank said no.

Argh.

I need to buy a toddler bed so my mom has some place to sleep (as in we'll boot noah from his big boy bed and move Grace's crib to a more central locale. Argh.

Oh, adorable Loki. I hope he feels better soon.

I am so clueless on yard sales.

I dunno. I freecycle so that people will come take things with minimal fuss for me. Which? Worked out awesome today. Three things listed a couple of hours ago and the third just was taken away.

Well, we're having a block yard sale, so I figure to take advantage of it.

Loki seems to be doing a lot better.

Kat, since you only need a bed for guests on occasion, maybe an aerobed?

I love that my friday nights now always involve email chains planning saturday morning's trip to the market with a circle of neighbors. Though I am a little alarmed that we keep pushing the go-time earlier!

Something in my life has become very odd: I'm watching children's tv at 10 o'clock on a Friday night, putting off going to bed.

For work? Or, um?

Sort of for work.

I mean, entirely for work, but not because I HAVE to.

So what children's show?!! Even if you aren't doing daytime commentary, you still have to fill us in!
