Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
whoot, Alaska! Eat some great salmon, and say hello to the vanishing glaciers!
I ran the dog, ate breakfast, and went to dog training, which was HELLA hot. We were all completely wilted and the dogs kept hiding in the shade. Came home, ate some protein, and collapsed into a much longer nap than I intended to.
But now I am rested and showered, and I'm going to drop off a check as a deposit on my new car, and go see Monsoon Wedding. Fun!
I'm going there later this summer! Whole family. Up to Denali Nat'l Park, then south to Chugach & Kenai Fjords.

Yes! Enjoy!
I have had a lazy day. Super rare so almost guilt free. I think doing the dishes was the only thing productive. I read and napped and played on my computer. I should do this again tomorrow!
I acted like my mother's partner at dinner with two couple friends of theirs, and it was actually really nice.
I've spent the last two days nursing a migraine which finally seems to be fading some. So naturally, at 2:30am, I am now wide awake and hungry.
Hope you got decent sleep, aurelia.
I think one of the hardest parts of parenting must be not keeping a grudge. Earlier this morning, the kids next door were getting in trouble and then an hour later, they were teaching the little one how to ride a two-wheeler. I feel like I would still be annoyed from the earlier stuff!
And in other news, I bought some Danskos for the first time yesterday. I think they are great? But of course I won't be sure until I really wear them, and then it will be too late to return them. So we'll see!
Wishing you ease of pain and rest, aurelia.
Not a parent, but in my experience it is entirely possible to do fun things with and teach skills to people I'm annoyed with.
Still awake. The pain has continued to fade so I've been reading. I may nap for a bit now though.
I hope rest and relief come soon, aurelia.

It isn't too hard with little ones, but it is more an issue with rotten teens.
After a month of frustrations the NYT finally fixed their distribution issues and provided me a nice fat newspaper to read in bed with coffee provided by DH. Bliss. I had written them saying after 3 weeks in a row of no Sunday paper just forget it and leave me on internet access only and they wrote back with a super apologetic email saying they were having issues but promised it would be fixed and credits were forthcoming, and please give them another chance. So I did and they delivered!
Coffee and newspaper in bed! Life is good.
Especially when the cat joins me.
I doing it right now AIFG
