Bleach
Today is garbage and recycling day. Every week I have to get a week’s worth of poop out of the house into the bins. Today our diaper can had maggots on the lid. A lot of maggots. I was not about to play around with that. I took a bottle of bleach and poured it…

Land of the Lost
I just finished the first season of Land of the Lost. In the final episode “Circle” the Marshalls make it home. I had no clear memory that they had escaped the Land of the Lost, and that’s probably because there were two more seasons which just ignored the true ending. That’s good business considering the…

Dust Buster
I got filters for my dust buster. I have been spot cleaning the floors for days. I am almost out of filters. But I got them from Amazon so I can order a bunch more now that I know the correct specifications. I’m going to try to find a hand held unit to do wet…

Hippie
It’s been a long day. First for the record I need to say I hate “banker’s hours.” I went to a credit union at 3:30 to set up a new account. The only person there authorized to do that was in a meeting until four and wasn’t taking any customers after that. That stinks for…

Turds
Ben usually gets a bath when he wants one. He sat on the toilet before he got in his bath tonight. A storm rolled in and Stephanie suggested that he sounded distressed because of it even though he was in the bath. I checked and he was sitting sideways in the tub with his legs…

Work is good. Getting paid to work is even better. Being able to pay other people to work is even better than that. It’s not much of a philosophy, but Fuck Off, I do what I want. Stay Awesome, Stay Weird, or Stay Away!

Comforters
In the winter I sleep with two comforters because the heat and the weight helps me sleep. Last night I was so hot and sweaty that I threw one of them on the floor and slept with just the remaining one. At one point or another the kids all used to sleep with actual weighted…

Windchimes
My phone doesn’t like the word windchimes. The spell checker doesn’t think it’s a real word. Today I took a picture of our lilac bush which is just starting to bloom. I was sitting on the porch and our windchimes are in the shot. When I tried to share the image my text got flagged…

Intoxicated
I don’t have anything to go out of the house for tomorrow, so I am intoxicated tonight. This is becoming pretty typical for my Friday nights. Just mellow. Fed, fasting, and mellow. Stay Awesome, Stay Weird, or Stay Away.

Stacks of Books
Alex is sitting across the room from me in the easy chair. He had taken all the books off the shelf next to him and made a pile in his lap taller than his head. He loves stacks of books. He has many. Some of them become his permanently. This one probably won’t. Oddly enough…
