Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Which makes getting carded on Thursday kinda ridiculous.

I was also getting carded, which is also ridiculous, but I do understand having a uniform policy.

Our wings are not tired.

1992. NINETEEN NINETY-TWO.

Yeah, my firstborn was born in 92. Then again, he is 21 going on 13.

I got carded at Bevmo yesterday. I am old enough to be the cashier's mother! It's sort of ridiulous.

Laura, you can NOT have a 21 year old. Wasn't it just last week he was duct taping his brother's head?

I do the waassssup thing about once a week. true fact.

but then I also just randomly say "it's a pterodactyl" and make squaky noises about once a month and that commercial was in 1988. no one ever knows what I am going on about.

I also say "Good Stuff Maynard" a lot. [link]

Because books.

1992 is seven years after I graduated high school, and a year after my firstborn's birth.

I need a drink.

I have one for you, Amy. Come over and enjoy beer or a pimms cup! I am old.

Because books.

I would love to. Sounds much, much better than unpacking boxes, too.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I got my errands run while it was still under 90 out, so I am free to stay and melt in the privacy of my own home/yard the rest of the day. I really miss being in the mountains and having a creek full of ice melt to wade in right now.

-t is me, though I suspect my day may involve less yard and more napping, since I also did the weeding and bird feeder refilling before it got too hot.

amy did you move? did I miss that?

I love my dad, I really do. He's 70 and he mows my lawn for me. but he never tells me when he is going to come over and mow. I just ran out in the 97 heat to oick up dog poop and dog toys and fallen tree branches. He also considers my lawn browning as a crime against humanity. I sometimes (ok always) forget to take the sprinklers off the "rain" setting for a few weeks after a rain storm. also, I HAVE TORN AWAY PARTS OF MY INTERIOR WALLS BECAUSE OF TERMITE DAMAGE FROM 2 YEARS AGO...a dying lawn is not my biggest concern.
