You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

High school and college, yeah. But by then he'll be doing some of the work.

(And also Aeryn, but she'll have sibling preference at this school so I'm hoping we can just register her for pre-k and then not worry about it until 9th grade.)

Dudes, there was a vw sighting! Hi vw!

Jessica, great news! (Man, I am not looking forward to having to go through that process in a few years...)

Yikes, the flooding in Chicago is scary.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Also, before he goes to college, can you make sure he understands the difference between an envelope and a folder?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Aw, good boy!

The envelope/folder thing is because they literally haven't done enough with paper, right?

What's fun about the Good Stuff is that over the past couple of days, we've gotten a bunch of new followers because of the "dads sing Little Mermaid" video I put up literally six months ago.
