Happy birthday, Tom!
Hanging out with Dad at the hospital. They are treating him for pneumonia, but won't release him until he can eat, which is not happening at the moment.
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I said it on FB, but it's worth saying here, too: Happy Birthday, Scola!!!
Consuela, I hope your dad starts eating.
We went out for brunch at a place that makes a lot of their dishes gluten free by using GF bread. So I ordered the French toast, and they brought out 2 plates of it. I said no one else at the table ordered French toast, but they said because the GF bread slices were so small (and they're a good 25%-30% smaller than regular bread), they made 2 plates of it for me.
However, I did not eat all the French toast. That's a bit much even for me. Though I did eat all the fruit that came on top of it.
So now I'm home and cleaning stuff. Sheets are in the washing machine and I just did the dishes and cleaned the stovetop. Next up is cleaning the bathroom. Later: steam-mopping the kitchen and bathroom floors. Woo.
It's sunny and supposed to hit 60, so I plan to take a walk later (though I have to wonder when we're going to hit 60, since it's 3:00 and we're only at 49.)

Our wings are not tired.
I have managed to write out a shopping list and meal plan for the next 6 days (3 meals a day even). DH and I are still doing low carb and getting bored so a more varied menu has to happen. This took about 3 hours to work out with the considerations of what he eats and what I eat and all that. I used the Atkins meal planner thing, but I didn't find the recipes all that inspiring so next week I will have to branch out. Now off to Costco.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Happy birthday, Tom!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh Suzi, sounds like something has to give, and it keeps on being you 'cause you're mom, but that can't keep happening. Other details, but I've been there so I get it. CJ needs to step up, but you may need to get tough with him before he'll do it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Happy birthday, Tom!
That sounds rough, Suzi.
And healing thoughts to your dad, Suela.
