In which I try to make up for lost time (but fail miserably).
I’ve been reluctant to type anything lately because all I can muster is pure crap. I often find myself thinking in the form of a telegram, so of course that’s what tends to come out here. It’s depressing to discover that one can lose her ability to think real thoughts if unpracticed. Hey – the brain really is a muscle – who knew? Not me, because mine has atrophied. So, what’s happened while I’ve been gone…
Mimi lost ANOTHER tooth. She has to go to the hospital on friday for a series of tests (unrelated to the missing teeth) and I am prepared for them to tell me that she is pre-menopausal. She’s just rebelious enough to do that to me.
Wixi is hitting baseballs over the fence (well, our fence) and at least 10 times a day relays to me proudly that he is in fact NOT going to say goddammit anymore when he doesn’t.
This is good news because I taught my first Sunday school class last week and I was terrified that he would burst in and drop a GD bomb – thereby proving beyond any doubt that I am indeed a terrible fraud.

Heey,
I came across your blog randomly..
I must say that you have two of the cutest kids.. I love Mimi’s picture with her spooky-static-controlled hair..
You seem to be a very nice mom to them..
“I was terrified that he would burst in and drop a GD bomb – thereby proving beyond any doubt that I am indeed a terrible fraud.”
hahahaa, that’s funny, but I admire you for the little things you do to raise ‘em up well..

Don’t you hate those GD bombs… my oldest guy = who is 2 1/2 picked it up.. and the word “idiot”… and as scary as this is – he actually uses them in proper context. What’s next!? LOL
Congrats to your daughter!
