Noah really wants to watch hockey, but we abandoned cable when we moved last June. We also have been offloading stuff to the donation box like mad since our house is small. This prompted Noah to ask this week, "Why did we donate cable?" Oh. He gets it!

I had to go yell at twins for being obnoxiously loud in bed. He is walking out right now crying saying he is not really tired. The only thing my kids have going for them is their superhero sleeping ability. If he stops sleeping, how will I survive?

Oh noes, go to sleep Noah!
I am tired. Averaged five hours a night for the past week, and then stayed up until two last night talking to someone in South Africa. Technology is all very good and fine, but chatting with someone across that many time zones is untenable.
But we sent off our band today, and I just finished up the paperwork that I didn't get done because they were here and then my computer broke. I still have paperwork that didn't get done because I was working on the big deadline. But fuck it. It can wait.
So tired, and emotional 'cause menstrual and lots of other stuff, and happy 'cause done, but wired 'cause working late. And possibly I had way too much caffeine during the day today.
So yeah, Noah can have my tired.

Caffeine is probably what I should have tried to kick again during Lent, but I think if I did that and wheat, someone might have to die.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Let me tell you about giving up wheat. I don't know if this is true for people who aren't gluten-sensitive/intolerant/celiac, but I've read that gliadin (one of the proteins that makes up gluten [yeah, it's complicated]) actually binds to the opiate receptors. So when you stop eating wheat, it's like going through opiate withdrawal. I remember that. It sucked.
How's it going?
t edit I guess I did literally go through opiate withdrawal after my back surgery, and giving up wheat wasn't NEAR as bad as that, but it really did have some similar I-am-a-junkie-kicking-the-habit *physical* effects.

I should give up wheat for lent. Or cheese. Or, you know, foods I enjoy. Or, maybe I should just have to eat a salad with every meal? Or kale. Maybe that should have been my lenten resolution -- kale 3 times a day.
Noah is now lying on my bed. If he falls asleep there, I will have to carry his ass to the top bunk. I feel like I'm making a bad choice.

Oh man, did it suck. I was so happy when I got to stop the ABX that were making me sensitive to gluten.
