One day in, and I blew it already. I got home from the fruit last nite, and found Psycho Momia watch a docudrama on the Zodiac, and got completely sucked in. Good flick from what I saw of it. Great job of keeping in the 70’s.
I have some deeper thoughts, but they ain’t ready yet. Maybe later this week.
I’ll leave you a quote from the oldest on Friday night:
“Dada, my yoni has an arm.”
Brr….

So I’ve been quiet for a while. Sorry about that. Lots of stuff has been happening, but most of has been very mundane, and not worth reporting.
It’s kind of odd, but I don’t seem to pick up on the amusing things about life like other parent bloggers do. Maybe I’m just too “in the moment”, or too self involved to grab these tidbits to share.
I dunno.
Some interesting points from the past bits of time:
That’s about it for now. Got housework to get back too.
Oh, One more thing.
If you are in the Boston Area, we are having our Annual Halloween Party soon – well – around the time of halloween.
If you are interested in coming, drop me a line via the contact link in the main menu above.
I’ve just been alerted to the fact that today is “Official De-lurking Day”!
So show me who you are, and delurk by posting in the comments.
Yeah, I mean YOU!

Things have been a bit chaotic, not leaving me much time to think, let alone write.
Both wee ones caught a cold that made them hack and cough a lot. And I do mean a lot. I thought Oldest girl was going to bring up a lung yesterday. She seems better today. The only thing that seemed to help her yesterday was some good old fashioned Luden’s Wild Cherry cough drops. I suspect some whiskey might have also helped, but we are fresh out.
Some old school remedies still work well.
Dealing with stinkin’ mice. Every couple of years, a family of them decide to move in (a downside to having a 117 year old home). These little buggers are making my head hurt this time around, though. In the past, we’d find them in the pantry – no surprise there.
This time around though, we’ve caught them in the bathroom vanity, eating soap. Do you know what soap does to a mouse? Let’s just say soap works very well as a mousey laxative.
But then, it got worse. We have a built-in china cabinet. It has a cupboard on the bottom, which we use to store thing like champagne glasses, candle holders and candles.
Last year, we bought a giant bag of tea-lights from IKEA. 100 of them. The rodents have now eaten about 30 of them – including large portions of the aluminum cups.
Just how defective or desperate does a mouse need to be to eat metal?
Heard a story on Wait! Wait! about some guy in Seattle who went to buy a crowbar at Home Despot. He went to use the “self checkout”, and had a really poor experience doing so. Now, I’m not saying it wasn’t user error, but I think we have all had that moment – “this thing is really pissing me off! Oh, what’s this? I have a crowbar in my hand?” $10k worth of damage later, he walks out, and being an honest man, leaves the unpaid for crowbar behind. My hero!
I’d like to take a moment to welcome Moonspun to the blogging world. She has an interesting outlook on the world, and I can’t wait to hear her voice ring loud.
Enough for now….
(hey! You there – I see you lurking… pipe up and say hi!)
