If this offends you, I don't care--it's hilarious!

Jesus Has His Say

I've been plussed.

The man in the Lexus hybrid with clean fuel plates drove 5 under the speed limit in the left lane. Then he rolled down his window and chucked, with lots of arm behind it, a cigarette butt out his window onto the grass in the median.

I believe the irony was lost on him.

Holy cow! This woman had a baby the size of my five-month-old! >.<

There is no such thing as privacy anymore, is there? Or self-awareness?

Argh.

Let gays get married already, geez. All those fabulous, extravagant weddings, the thing of many a gay boy's dreams. It will be good for the economy.

Officially the driver of a... minivan.

Feelings of inadequacy... rejection... and the accompanying heartache... they never really go away, do they...

At my son's party on Saturday, two of my cousins were discussing surgery to create eyelid folds. I'm against it, of course. (Maybe because I don't have narrow eyes.) It's no surprise that the video story is about the Korean women who get the surgery--most Korean celebrities, if not naturally blessed, will get them, as my parents like to point out when they watch TV. Does the surgery make you look any better?

I just read an article called "8 famous Harvard dropouts not named Gates or Zuckerberg." It lists nine famous dropouts. Hmm...

Anneli [pointing to a wedding photo]: "Umma, that's you in the picture. You was being a princess."

Only two weeks of maternity leave left... it's sad. I'll only have two months left to teach, but I can think of more relaxing ways to spend those two months. I'd much rather deal with an infant and a toddler than five classes of teenagers.

Mom has been back for five weeks, and we've had to do a lot of adjustment. There will be more adjustment when Dad comes home. The two of them are going to have a hard time getting used to the idea that the house isn't theirs anymore, as much as we'll have a hard time getting used to sharing the house with them. It's not so hard for me--I spent most of my life in this house--but I know it's been a bit rough for Ryan since Mom came home. We've cleaned and rearranged most of the house, and there's still a lot more to do. Eventually, I'd like to get to the point it really feels like our house. It'll help once we get all the bathrooms redone and we get some new furnishings--just little things here and there.

Dad is doing well. Doctors are optimistic. The entire ordeal has left my parents with a stronger relationship. Dad has definitely come out of this a much different person. I don't know quite how to describe this difference, but he's... different. He seems to enjoy life more, but I suppose that's only natural after you come back from almost dying.
