  • Sometimes naming something makes it easier to cope with.

  • Good morning from day 11 of being home with the new baby. My current song repertoire for him includes a number about how he really needs to get some hobbies so he can entertain himself while we sleep.

  • Achievement unlocked: this guy ran so hard at his favorite park that he lost his collar and we didn’t realize until the next morning when he was able to sneak around the house in stealth mode without jingle-jangling.

  • The face of a pupper who just wants to go to bed.

  • Got the MLB.com app running on my Roku today. I had forgotten how painful the process of typing in a strong password with the Roku remote is.

  • Two weeks ago in California. It’s been a busy year so far!

  • Just finished my first Ursula K. Le Guin novel, Rocannon’s World. A great read, filled with beautiful cinematic descriptions and driving action (after a memorable but a little slow prologue).

  • Really enjoyed a Division Bell variation with 3/4 oz Contratto Aperitif (instead of Aperol, has more orange notes and is sweeter), 3/4 oz lime juice, 1/2 oz Luxardo maraschino liqueur and 1 oz Del Maugey Vida mezcal.

  • The thing about this major key version of Smells Like Teen Spirit (via mefi) is how of-a-piece it sounds with e.g. Better than Ezra.

  • We’re ready.

  • Great success with Cooks’ Illustrated rolls for tomorrow!

  • We did family craft projects last night.
