altarflameSo far it's went:
-Sleep in while Grant takes Elise to preschool and goes out to the store
-wake up to breakfast pizzas & oj, flowers, hugs from Ananda and Aaron, a homemade necklace from Jake, and dozens of well wishes on facebook
-take a nap with Grant, til he goes to get Elise and then comes back and crawls in bed with me, and Isaac, and Elise
-bedroom door closes for highly satisfactory Mommy and Daddy time
-talk of him grilling me a marinated steak and shrooms later
-trip out to Mama Mia's for bruschetta and cappuccino, in the beautiful weather
-MORE NAPPING
-sister shows up to deliver lovely edible arrangement ordered by my mother, which I happily share with children and niece and nephew
(this is where I'm at now)
I mean honestly if this is my thirties I'll take it.
Tangent: this past weekend G and I went up to Winn DIxie in the BEAUTIFUL gorgeous weather on a bike and a skateboard, racing down the same streets we have since we were 13 years old, and it struck me that we were racing down the same streets together that we have since we were 13 years old.
PostScript: Guys, seriously, why can't we talk about whether or not you like it when people talk about sex on the internet, or my weird mood swings, or the pictures I post, or my crazy friends, or college - ? These exploding political threads busting my inbox at the seams, honestly people, sigh. I mean I think about current events at some point every day but I wish I could get a quarter the input and involvement on everyday posts. Ultimately, heated debate of any kind just makes me tired of the subject of debate. <--This is me flippantly whining with a chuckle, ok? So don't come in here like OH MY GOSH YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT THE SUFFERING or I'm just gonna link you to a Rick Astley video.

Your friends sound fun, and I wish we lived closer so we could be insane together sometimes.
Happy Birthday, sweetie. You are awesome.

Date: 2011-10-24 09:39 pm (UTC)I enjoy all of your posts, really. I am sorry I have increased my rate of comment by about 4000% over the last few days. Usually, I guess I don't have much to say because I just enjoy your blog, and I don't really have much to add but accolades :)
Incidentally, I am neutral about talking about sex on the Internet (I'm cool if you do, cool if you don't), I think your kids, pictures, and crazy friends are great, and I am actually somewhat bewildered by the amount of bureaucracy that seems to be involved with your college experience.
