  • 16:46 is home from Staff Development Day. It was great to see everyone. In other news: Columbus: still evil. #
  • 19:48 and Kim have been half-joking for months that TS is going to potty train before LB. Tonight she pooped in the potty. Uh-oh . #

  • 22:58 RT @badbanana: The scariest movie monster has to be the Invisible Man. Because he's a naked man. And he might be sitti ng on your sofa. #

  • 08:43 I'm straight, but not narrow. Happy Nat'l Coming Out Day to all my GLBTQ friends/family. Let's have loving conversations about diversity. #
  • 11:20 Thanks to @katebornstein for adding a new word to my vocabulary. I am (mostly) "cisgender" as opposed to "transgender". bit.ly/UrX99 #
  • 11:23 I am trans-gender in the sense that I sometimes behave in ways that transgres s or transcend my bio gender. Knitting, for example. #
  • 11:25 But I wouldn't belittle the struggle of people like @katebornstein, @docbrite, @sexgenderbody and others by identifying as transgender. #
  • 11:26 I am acutely aware of my white, male, heterosexual, and cisgender privilege. #
  • 12:12 heads to the library to eat lunch and then work for the first time in a week. Subvert the dominant paradigm! #nationalcomingoutday #

  • 00:07 has washed every dish in the house. Well, except for the cutting boards. And there are probably some glasses downstairs. Heck with it. Bed. #
  • 08:47 has taken Kim to the Dr. and BB to school. Now he's home getting lunches ready for the littlies. It's picture day for them. #
  • 09:11 Picture day! pic.gd/4514dd #
  • 09:46 is gonna "Fix-a-Flat" the slow-leaking tire on the van and then go get Kim from the doc. Does the fun ever stop? #
  • 10:58 finds Dollhouse 02:02 "Instinct" tripping all kinds of emotional triggers for him. #
  • 11:26 is now using the van to bring in the dead battery from the car to see if it's still under warranty. none of this is housecleaning. #
  • 12:10 @fithedesign: RT @elloyd74: OMG--"Regretsy"--like Cake Wrecks for "crafts": www.regretsy.com/ #
  • 12:19 just learned what the "limited" part of his battery's "five year limited warranty" is. Crap. #
  • 13:34 just finished scrubbing the kitchen floor. He'd prefer that you looked at it rather than the horrifying color of the wash water. #
  • 15:11 .@frakfraco @crowderband There are 10 kinds of people: those who understand binary and those who don't. #
  • 15:19 is stuck at BB's school until 4 due to one-car-edness. Good thing he brought knitting to entertain... Oh, hey. A couch! With a pillow... #
  • 16:21 RT @choochoobear: Personal rule: any flame email that uses "gay' and/or "fag" more than three times isn't a flame but a coming out attempt. #
  • 16:31 gets to figure out how to roll up the window of the car with no battery. Can he just hook jumper cables from the van to the terminals? #
  • 16:48 put the bad battery in and the car had enough juice to start. May not by tomorrow am, but it got the windows up. #
  • 18:59 made a sad dinner of canned pinto beans and creamed corn, and then went through all the plastic containers and matched lids with bottoms. #
  • 19:52 is falling asleep on the couch. He may just gobed when the boys do. #
  • 21:08 was invited to a dance party tonight, but is going to bed just after 9pm instead. Get off his lawn, ya whippersnappers! #

  • 09:16 RT @JohnCleese: Anniversary Tweet: It was nearly called Monkey Piston's Frying Circle #
  • 09:20 is so grateful to Granny Jenny for taking the kids last night and today. Made it so much easier to make Kim comfy and let us sleep. #
  • 12:46 made fried rice for lunch from all the leftovers. #
  • 14:07 is impressed that Eliza Dushku is breastfeeding on his TV. See, folks? This is what they're for, not just looking at. #
  • 14:57 has the littlies in the car and is waiting for BB to come out of school. Back to life, back to reality, back to the here and now... #
  • 16:19 enjoys Max and Ruby, and his kids adore it, but he's not happy with how it reinforces gender stereotypes. #
  • 16:53 hasn't accomplished much today. Kim is still in pain, and seems to be coming down with LB's cold from last week on top of it. This sucks. #
  • 17:36 takes a chance on voicing an unpopular sentiment. "Seasonal allergies are inconvenient and disruptive." That's right! He said it! #
  • 18:02 is the only functioning adult in the house. He cannot be having sneezing fits every two minutes. This aggression will not stand! #
  • 18:16 says says, "Life is pain, Princess. Anyone who tells you differently is selling something." #
  • 18:35 is about || this close to losing his cool entirely and running off to Australia or something. #
  • 18:46 has been Nasacorted, Benadryled, Neti-ed, and Ibuprofened, and still feels like the north end of a southbound ox. #
  • 20:07 is fine as long as he lays on the couch with his eyes closed and doesn't move. Anything else turns on the faucets in his nose and eyes. #
  • 20:22 has stowed the children in their respective compartments and is gobed now. Praying that tomo rrow will be better. #

  • 08:21 finds reason #5,924 that we need health care reform: "Call your PCP prior to receiving treatment for urgent care." WTF? It's URGENT! #
  • 12:20 is going to take Kim to the emergency room, which will cost him 3x as much, and the insurance company 6x as much. Stupid. #
  • 14:58 and Kim are still in ER waiting. She's been triaged and X-rayed, and they gave her a pain pill that hasn't helped much. #
  • 17:42 and Kim spent five hours in the ER waiting room and all they got was ten lousy minutes with a doctor and a l ousy Percodan scrip. #
  • 19:55 is considering using playon.tv to watch Hulu and Netflix on the Wii. He's heard some good things. Any negative reviews? #
