Where did I put the charger for my magical self-jump-starter device?
I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

Never mind - magical device says it basically still has a full charge. I'll look for it later.

Is your self-jump-starter for self or for car? Cause I want one for self.
I took today off because our nurse is still out and I hate when Grace misses school. Which is dumb as it's kindergarten. If she had missed today she'd have missed an Eric Carle book, writing her April words and writing in her journal. All things she can accomplish at home in less time than the 180 minutes it took for her to go through the "centers".
That said, she played a hoop and basketball game with her friend Isabella who is ADORABLE and sweet. So that part was worth it.
Then the dentist.
Um. Noah has a tooth that's approximately 85% cavity. WTH?! Terrifying.

For car. One for self would be even better, but being able to start my car when it inexplicably won't is pretty sweet.

Got my 2 IKEA roller shades for the main room windows ( here [link] I love the light, but want to mute it during the summer when I am not home, cause they are west, and it is intense. These are semi-transparent, called purple but more a purple red [link] . They will be completely hidden when up.) Taped up the templates to put up the brackets. Now I need a drill adapter because the drill doesn't fit straight in under the window sconce thingie. Trying the keywords to figure out what the appropriate words are. I see the damn thing in my head.

My brother was all cavities. I was not until 20. I had teeth a few years ago that were just this side of saving with crowns rather than extraction/implant. It's not you, it's genes and environment and who the fuck knows.

Sara, even if it's genetics then it's still my fault! How does that not hurt? Grace's teeth are covered with a nice shield of tartar and plaque build up which protects from cavities. No. Seriously. She has no cavities.

Other parents can weigh in, but I thought dairy was the worst possible thing you could eat. I think a potato is okay, but no dairy on it.
Everyone seems to say that and its probably true for most people... but just about always the first thing my bad tum wants after carbs is some dairy.

Blame YOUR parents. That's what I & my dentist do.
Grace, well. Maybe because of nfbm or whatever the acronym, for so long, she doesn't have the evil bacteria that do cavities.

Nah. Tubie kids usually have terrible teeth because saliva from eating is different than general saliva and good for teeth (as Mary Roach notes in her new book).
About the hurting thing, I meant, how does his tooth not hurt!
