I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

This weekend will be, I think, the great leg-shaving of spring 2014. I have held off through several 80 degree days, but I think we'll be into bare legs at work temperatures soon.

What do I want to have for dinner next week? I am SO BORED of cooking things that my kids will eat and that are reasonable to cook in the time constraints we face. Every week we need to eat. We just ate LAST week. Over it!

Oh, Burrell, if you want a recent Consumer Reports on Washing machines, email me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I started doing it, and am afraid I will be doing it over the weekend as well. Ah well! At least I'm going to try not to give up completely....

In this, we are as one. I was at a work conference this week and stayed in a hotel last night, and the thing I was looking forward to MOST was having a night all to myself to take a bath, watch some TV, and shave my legs. Then I stayed up reading until past midnight, which I am mildly regretting today, but not really.

Because books.

Hotel bathtubs (and bathrooms in general) are such a treat.

Jesse, I thought you had already ordered a sofa?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Will do flea, thanks

When I get bored of kid friendly dinners I start to make two versions, the plain one and the tasty one. So kids get noodles and butter, which they like, and Cody and I get our noodles tossed with mushrooms, garlic, basil, and feta.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm watching this week's Grey's Anatomy, and I loved Burke's "Tell Meredith I said hello."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Mmm, hotel room bathtub.

I need to do my work. I have one thing that MUST be done today (and several others that SHOULD, but...) and a doctor appointment I have to leave for in 90 minutes. Ugh, self!

Our wings are not tired.

With us it is making the meaty version and my version. Sloppy Joes with burger for them and fake crumbles for me. Stir fry with meat cooked on the side and added after I take out mine. Things like sandwich bars or tacos are easy because we all can take what we like and skip the personally ucky stuff.

When we have extended family we have vegans, vegetarians, and committed carnivores so we are used to variety in menu.

Mmmmm food, now I'm hungry.
