Trying to distract my 3 year old from getting into trouble: “Come here, wanna pet the dog?”
“YES! Her feathers are so nice and soft.”
Every year I do the same dance around ordering holiday cards: ooh-ing and aah-ing over the designs, wrestling kids to stand a second in front of the camera “Hold still, don’t put that in your mouth”, wrestling those pictures into stupid preset frames that are all horizontal when I shot everything like a portrait (when will I learn?), collecting coupons for printing so I overpay only a little bit but never before have I ordered cards in November. I feel high right now.
“Spider” Monday – you know, the Monday after Thanksgiving

It’s like 8th grade all over again. Except for the wine. We drank beer then. But there will be a lot of profanities and sex talk. Who knows? We started high-five-ing already.
Baby meeting the most docile dog of upper Fairfield county. “Hai dog. Nice to meet- OhNOM NOMNOM”

WHYYYYYY does the dog get sick on a rainy night? Whyyyyyyyy?
