We have a ransom box too! It's very helpful for the kids. It might be helpful for the adults too.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I wonder if a personal ransom box would work for me.
Or maybe Bubba
It's Friday! What are people doing this weekend?
I have to go pick up my car from a hideously expensive service appointment, and then I am going to go home and be broke all weekend.

It's Friday! What are people doing this weekend?
Baseball game tonight WITH MY BROTHER!
Party tomorrow night (assuming my face doesn't swell up like a puffer fish [I am having some swelling from getting my tooth pulled, but it seems to be within reasonable parameters for 48 hours after the procedure, but, being me, I'm worried my entire face will swell up like a balloon]).
Possible hootenanny/shindig/gathering at my SiL's parents' place Sunday.
Tomorrow is also the 2nd anniversary (I think that's the wrong word) of Tim's mom's death, so I think we will be visiting her grave site.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
mac is going to a lock-in tonight (which really seems to be just a go do a bunch of stuff and then spend 7 hours in the church-in) and I am driving kids to the first 2 stops which will keep me out until midnight. Another mother and I are getting coffee while the kids are in some sort of amusement/game place so at least I'll get some hang with a friend time.
Tomorrow, pick mac up at 7, cats to vet at 9:30, mac to a playdate at 2. I expect to watch olympics from the time we are home from the vet until bedtime.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Our house works on a defacto ransom system as well, but I must admit the box would have a certain flair.

We get up at about 4am tomorrow to drive to Dayton to fly to BWI to drive to Annapolis, for my grandfather's 90th birthday party. Nutty family members, booze, hotel rooms, possibly a tour of the Naval Academy.
Sunday we fly to Boston and drive to Cape Cod. Did I mention I hate packing and air travel?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I HAVE MOVED.
My apartment is obviously still a mess of boxes, and it is kind of not big enough for all of my furniture, but I am here and have cable and internet! So now I am sitting with the tv on. Huzzah.
Also, after the movers got here, I remembered about the existence of the coat closet in my old place. Oops. It's right behind the front door, which had been open the whole time, so my parents ran me back over there with the spare key I had forgotten to leave, so now I even have all my stuff!
Also also, my cat is much better after the vet yesterday, even with (partly because of?) all the drama today.
In short, everything is good right now.
