Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh, I find all of the child molestation and cover-up stuff so hard to process. A colleague's son was molested when he was about that age. I was by someone in a similar position of power over him. It has been so hard for him to come to terms with it, to even begin to talk about it with his family. I can't read about these boys without thinking of him.

Isaac's school is having a school night dinner at Shakey's Pizza. I loathe Shakey's. I loathe school nights. I am stuck going to dinner anyway. phooey. Meanwhile Franny is angling for a sleepover tonight. Darn those healthy social lives!

I'm good, caught the bus down Broadway, and I'm already at Lakeshore. But I saw the fire trucks leaving with the victim. Bad sign for OO...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yikes.

I'm not going to lie, I don't feel great about the world this week.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

SFGate is reporting it was near Occupy Oakland, but Occupiers are saying it was random neighborhood violence, not anything to do with them.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Cass, thanks for those words. I really appreciate the support here. Trying to keep the kids out of the middle leaves me little room to vent.

In just what I needed news, I stopped by our local frozen yogurt place to treat myself. Got nummy pumpkin yogurt with mochi and graham cracker crumbs. My favorite. If you can guess the weight of your yogurt, you get it for half off. I guessed and was on the nose. And my loyalty card paid off, so I only owed $0.24. It was super delicious.

Nice, Suzi!

Glad you're safe, Connie.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Tonight's soup: onion, garlic, squash, bok choy, kale, white beans, chicken broth, and smoked turkey sausage.
