Everyone Sick.



It feels like at least one person has been sick in this house since November.
I finally got sick on Sunday evening and I had to go in to work anyways.
I am feeling much better now, but then when I got home from work, Mama T was puking all over the place!
She got sick from the Boy who was also puking everywhere, but that was two days ago and he is much better now.
So I am hoping that I don't get this... thing that everyone else has had.
But it seems like that is the way it has been working, and I fear for my safety.

Starting to Laugh.



So my brother is hot shit at the restaurant.
But why should he be surprised?
We are descendants from a long lineage of super secret, highly trained dishwashing commandos that stretches all the way back to the days before the relocation.

Back to the days when the giant turtle crawled out of the hole in the ground.

It's like a high mesa type of Harry Potter type thing, only with dishwashing taking the place of magic and wizarding.

Anyways, I am happy for him coming into his own like this.
I remember my days in the restaurants, I miss them dearly and look forward to the
day when I can return to the burrito shack.

A joint burns eternally awaiting my return.
At least that is what I am told.

I made two delicious pizzas for dinner, and they turned out great.
And I attempted to bridge a gap between my brother in law.
I am no civic engineer.

Bag Bot.



Do you guys know what bullshit I have to deal with sometimes?
Well let me tell you something, probably you have no idea because you are probably busy dealing with your own problems.
And for that I hold no grudge, I mean, what are we supposed to do?
But damn, isn't it some shit when you feel like you are surrounded
by the opposing forces in life?

Grown ass men acting like children.
A workplace devoid of feminine sensitivity.
Irresponsible ex landlords with hurt feelings.
Coworker gossip.
An overall lack of tenderness and tact!?
The dark loneliness creeping in the corners?
The always present fear of the unknown?
Any of this sound familiar?

But wait! What's this!?
The lights at the end of the tunnels?

Responsibility paying off at tax time?
Breakthroughs in the paint?
A form slowly taking shape in the garage?
Long term goals being tackled and tamed?
A tiny soul of innocent sweetness with a love for the pancake??
A perfectly contoured partner to cling to in the cold who withholds all judgement and showers me with moderate and sporadic praise and love?

To top it all off I got myself a three day weekend.
I am pretty sure that by the end of this one, I will have beaten off the opposition for at least another month or two.

The Life.



I got soup cooking on the stove.
But I also thought that since I may very well be buried in my home by snow, I should show you what I am dealing with.
By the way, if you want to kiss those lips it's gonna cost you a quarter and you will probably catch his cold.
But I think it is worth it.

Leaving.



I am not happy to say this, but I want to go on a vacation.
I want to take my vacation without my son.
Just me and T-Dubs.
I want to go to France, but it might be only because of watching Ratatouille.
Also maybe Argentina.
I just want to do this people.
What do you think?

I got to go to sleep, so I got some time to think about it.

Where are you from?



What EVER!
I don't care anymore!
I got in my time machine and got the F outta here!
I traveled back to a time where I was gleefully irresponsible and unaware.

But you know, things are good, I don't mean to be a downer.
I just am at one of many crossroads and I feel like just laying down and sleeping forever.
HA! Again, I am just kidding.

I did the family taxes.
And then I made a bunch of dips for a party that Mama T is having for her improv class.
I been busy is what I am trying to say.
As far as today is concerned.

Two Different Waves.



Change is not easy all the time.
Remember the horse I hoisted my Huz up onto?
The one that will hopefully carry us to a new land?
Well I encouraged her to do that, so I can't be too upset that it changed things.
I need to be able to adapt.
Adaptation is a profound process.
I need to be thinking of the future as well and I think that I scared myself with this realization.
I looked into a puddle that allowed me to see into the nearish future, and I did not like what I saw.
And so I have to do something about it.
I was so busy psyching up Mama T that I forgot how easy it is to be the psych-er, and that it is much more difficult to be the psych-ee. Although I suppose that like with anything else, it all depends on what you are talking about.

So, I am going to do something about it all right now.
A small baby step towards the future, a small brick in the wall of progress.
The wall that never stops needing tending to.

It was my birthday yesterday, I turned 32.
Damn! What an age I live in!

I have more to talk about, but I will let the suspense build instead.
