What I Did This Weekend


  • Didn't blog.
  • Knitted some socks that take me right back to The Wheel Thing Roller Rink, circa 1982. I love these socks more than I love my dogs.
  • Drank beer at a local pub with a friend. There was live music, old couples dancing to Frank Sinatra covers, and absolutely no credit cards accepted. It was awesome! Upon leaving, I watched a few silent minutes of "The Simpsons Movie" from the drive-in theater next door to the bar. Reveled in how much I love living in this town.
  • Celebrated Little Eddie's second birthday. Clara Jane celebrated Little Eddie's birthday the same way she celebrated Abby's birthday last week: by eating exactly two cupcakes-worth of icing and then going off to play with her father instead of the other kids.
  • Worked on those major blog changes I've been threatening for ages. They're almost finished, I promise. Although I lied a bit; I worked on the major blog changes for about five minutes before I got completely befuddled by the complexities of the five-minute install and yelled for B. to help me.
  • Sweated. Profusely. Just by sitting on my ass in my air conditioned house. I fucking hate August.
  • Made arrangements to have the Monday playdate at my house, instead of going to the coffeehouse that's gonna feel the wrath of our motherly ire by the lack of our presence. Oh yeah.
  • Went to Hawaii with Clara Jane. And by "Hawaii" I mean, "the basement". Imagination? Check!
  • Made silly lists instead of engaging my brain enough to make a real blog entry.

I invested in Secret Clinical Strength deodorant/antisweat, and it has proven its mettle thus far.

I wish someone would make clinical-strength deodorant for the face. Really, it's a product long overdue.
