I love homeschooling.
It gives me opportunities to say things like, "No you may not set off a model rocket in a crowded playground."

Do I desperately need more adults to help run Cub Scouts? Yes. Am I going to start a Scouting unit for girls totally on my own anyway? Also yes.

Thank you @alicefraser.bsky.social and @realmsunknown.bsky.social for yet another reading suggestion. The #Murderbot series continues your perfect score of book recommendations. Not a single DNF so far.

I just finished the fan fiction episode of @realmsunknown.bsky.social and thought of a couple of Star Trek fan fictions - The Orville, which is what happens when nerds have money and influence and (honestly, @alicefraser.bsky.social how could you have missed this?!) Sea Quest.

Someone said to me earlier, "I guess you're not afraid of dogs?"
Ma'am, I, myself have an 80lb, 4-legged toddler who is terrified of everything from thunder to laundry baskets. I have to protect the dog from everything he's afraid of.

I made myself a consolation breakfast for getting no sleep last night and having to deal with all the stuff behind said breakfast.
Basically, I had a lot on my plate, so I took it all off and replaced it with something tasty.

Being in the #Capoeira community for a few years has made me pretty good at recognizing a Brazilian accent. But, I don't know any functional Portuguese, so a conversation with me would be like, "Happy birthday, butterfly! Half moon scissors? Front back leather hat. Jawbone with hands!"

I know nature sounds are supposed to be soothing, but my my backyard has become Amphibian Tinder and it's not exactly lulling me off to dreamland.

Adderall is amazing. I start off on the couch, trying to find the softest part of a blanket, thinking up new search parameters for ThredUp and then half an hour later I'm whipping up a protein coffee and making a to-do list.

We watched Wild Robot last night and it really nailed parenthood - it is difficult and rewarding and impossible and wonderful and it will take you apart piece by piece, but if a normal human bartender builds you a new shin, you can teach your children to fly.
