I spent a very boring second day out of work, did not write my cover letter (though I did real the annual report and mission statement of the library), listened to Ira Flatow and Science Friday, picked up the kids off the bus, stopped one fight between Dillo and the girls, negotiated the stppage of play between Casper and the neighbor girls, and made grilled cheeses. When mr. flea gets home we are going to ride bikes 1 mile up the road to a "after hours" neighborhood festival in the next neighborhood, which has a good non-Graeter's ice cream shop, a cool toy store, and an AWESOME kids' bookstore (Blue Manatee: [link] )

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
She's been reported. I am waiting for our principal to be back on Monday to deal with it.
She was angry at me for insisting she come get her son after he punched me twice and then attacked Mrs H (the teacher) who is 6 months pregnant. She didn't like my "attitude".
Yikes, Aims!
Let's add Polgara to that mix and it would be ridiculous.
I'm trying to picture all of you playing something like Robo Rally, and cracking myself up.
I am also procrastinating by browsing for vintage Fluevogs. It's probably a good thing that none of the ones I want are turning up in my size.
Except that he makes his tea WRONG.
I'm willing to let his tea making slide, but he's not very good at serving it.
Isaac can accept losing a game, but only up to a point. That point is usually the first loss, after that, he'd better win.
Emeline can handle losing most board games. Except Battleship. She cheats constantly. And then gets banned from the game and then has a fit and then a coupld of days later promises not to cheat again, but then she does and lather, rinse repeat.

I love Oakley! (I also lived there. About the only place in Cincy that I haven't lived is the West side.)
WTF Aimee? That's not... urg...
by my own rules I cannot celebrate any win over mac except in my head. He is beyond slightly annoyed before the winning move is finished. It's a shame.
I can see where this aggressive kid gets it from, if the mother threatened you. Nice modeling!
Good lord, Aims. People.
I was supposed to work from home today, which I kind of did (technically from Tom and Nora's), but I was super sleepy and came home and napped. And now I'm trying to decide what to make for dinner - I have cabbage and potatoes that I need to use. And green beans.
Hey, isn't it time for "What are people doing this weekend?"
