Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dylan wrote a letter to the Tooth Fairy and I need to read it before it goes under his pillow.

Aw! (I have no advice.)

I am so close to finishing my stupid deadline of today! I am just waiting on one final thing from one person, and everything else is signed off on.

I'm just glad it's still light out, because 7 isn't actually that late to work, but it seems SUPER late when it's been dark for four hours already.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I work late every other Wednesday, so I'm here until about 10:00pm. I'm already wanting to go home. Feh.

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

Okay, well I was able to gently pry it open without tearing it, and he is asking the Tooth Fairy for a 3DS. Nice try, but no.

not your mom's socks.

Actual answer ~ma, Sox. And treatment and so forth.

thanks you guys.

Dude. Dylan, that's ... wow. Don't tell HPF. she's still got some teeth left.

I heard going rate around here is up to $5 and I said we're on the cheaper tooth fairy plan.

He's getting 3 dollar coins and a letter from the tooth fairy explaining that a 3DS is out of her price range.

(I'd consider it as a birthday present if the games weren't so expensive - $30 used on Craigslist!! Maybe he can sell me his iPod in exchange.)

information libertarian

Casper asked the "toofe fere" for $500 when she lost her first tooth (which "fel in a crak" in the windowsill). We speculated that the $500 was to compensate for her pain and suffering. She got a golden dollar coin.

How is D just losing his first tooth? Isn't he nearly 7?

Yeah, his baby teeth came in really late (he was toothless until he was a year old) so they're falling out late too. Mine were the same way.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

He's getting 3 dollar coins

My reaction? "There's a 3-dollar coin?"

Because the editor has a SUPER sharp eye when it comes to hyphens or, as the case may be, the lack thereof.

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

As it turns out, I got in my own way too much to manage the rhubarb fool. BUT I added some of the rhubarb-y part to a piece of Sunday's cheesecake and that is quite tasty.

I hope le nubian is sleeping, or at least not in a meeting.
