Love when my beloved firstborn son takes advantage of sleeping in my bed to fling all his weight on my femoral artery, claws first. It is (marginally) better than when he used to step on my fresh C-section scar.

I have discovered how I will earn my fortune: I will invent a pediatric pulse oximeter that actually works without requiring a toddler to hold perfectly still for five solid minutes. I'm sure this can be done easily.

Took my boys to the new house today, and you have never seen anyone happier than a toddler and a corgi mutt who just discovered the backyard. Forty bloody two degrees and the two of them were just *romping.*

Trying to convince a 20-month-old that when he was six months old he fucking LOVED sweet potatoes and maybe he still likes them? For my next trick I will negotiate a two-state solution.

Scrolling absently with Rufus by my side while Sean naps and we have one eye on the dog show. Cheesecake is out of the oven.

My mother brought me some boxes she emptied and she suggested I pack up Sean's toys. Ahem, madam, he's spending three more full days at home?? What do you suggest I give him, a spatula?

This year I am thankful for the usual (my son, my dog, my new house), but also for the vibrant and wide-ranging community of people who recognize that generative AI is useless, ocean-boiling slop. We are a broad coalition and we are going to win.

This is incredible. It provided explanations for the vibes that everyone feels about the economy.
Also, very bleak. A real indication of why America is a far worse place to live than a lot of other places.

This is an insightful but deeply upsetting article about why everyone in the US feels poor, and why the current political situation emerges as a direct result.

The dishwasher could not help. Luckily I just bought him two new cups for day care.
I just found his milk cup, still in my bathroom beauty fridge. Obviously still half-full of curdled milk and mold. Think the dishwasher can help? Yuck. (The MRI showed nothing but a normal, healthy, 19-month-old brain, praise God.)
