Everyone can hate me, but all my kids slept well. It's not impossible. Caveat: I didn't breastfeed, though, which probably has something to do with it.
Mal: Well said. Wasn't that well said, Zoe? Zoe: Had a kind poetry to it, sir.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
so realtor apparently went to the house and the furnace will not come on. he supposedly tried every trick in the book.
he also said the water was on for the washing machine and he is going to have a handyman look at it.
I do not get what is going on. HVAC company will take a look at the furnace, so we will see.

No shit. I suppose it is possible that both things are random. But I don't believe it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
My kids were the opposite of that. #1 didn't sleep more than 2 hours at a time until we Ferberized him at 10 months.
I read that first as "#1 didn't sleep more than 2 hours at a time until we Febrezed him at 10 months."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, how does stuff break if no one's using it?

The furnace thermostat was set at cool for 75 degrees or something like that. September was pretty mild so I am not sure the A/C came on much (judging by my energy bills). So I am not sure at what point it was busted. Supposedly the realtor has had open houses and the prospective owner just saw the house 2 weeks ago and no one mentioned a temp problem.

I think babies are a lot like immigrating to a new country or a third piece of pie -- theoretically they seem like a good idea, but the reality is never as pleasant as the idea.
My fit having today has led to better living (YAY!) in the form of less grading. Tomorrow I have 3 periods of in class essays (which, is more grading, but less dedication to its completion) and one period of teaching "My Papa's Waltz" and Reader Response Theory.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I read that first as "#1 didn't sleep more than 2 hours at a time until we Febrezed him at 10 months."
I was so sleep deprived at that point that if someone had suggested Febreeze, I totally would have tried it.
