Love is handwashing your family's underwear. (We won't have a washing machine until next week.)

Matt Berry + Portlandia = Woo hoo! Too bad I don't have cable. Well, not really... It's an excuse to go over to a friend's with a bottle of wine.

My "big" Christmas present just dispatched: Peep Show Series 8. I can hardly wait the two-ish weeks it'll take to get here.

My almost 6yo asked me to honor her zombie-astronaut-reindeer-hummingbird-pirate-assassin. How could I refuse such an earnest and innocent child? :P
ETA: I forgot vampire.

My eldest turns 12 tomorrow. *sniff* She's asked to try "cricket" sushi (there's a place... there's always a place) and for us to make (safely) edible cookie dough in lieu of cake. I don't know which sounds worse to me. :D

My youngest finally wore me down and I put Goblet of Fire on her Nook. I hope she can get to sleep tonight.

Netflix PSA: Resist the urge to delete movies from your primary (original) queue. Just don't. No device lacking updated software (i.e. almost all devices) is going to see what is in your new queues.

Nice chatting with you. Hope to do it another time with fewer interruptions. :)

Not starting Arrested Development until I'm caught up with Mad Men. Trying to get the family out of the house for 48 minutes for S04E13. The suspense is killing me.

Nothing like hearing your kids sing Fairytale of New York while they decorate the tree to make it feel like Christmas.

At least it was an accident at your house. Here, I have a mind like a sieve these days. The teens find it amusing and sometimes shocking to get music suggestions from a mother who was in college during the punk scene and who later worked in advertising with music promoters during the grunge days. I suspect I may not have understood some of the lyrics at that point in time.

OK, so I'm browsing through albums, filling in digital gaps. Three versions of Who's Next available! One is over 2-1/2 hours long, another an hour twenty. Serious, who needs that? Why? The original album was 45 minutes and perfect.

Orthodontist sticker shock. I think I need a drink.

Outing to the pediatric dentist. Two unexpected referrals. One to an orthodontist (thought we had another year, but no). One to a speech pathologist for tongue thrust. The latter probably isn't covered. Bah. Humbug.

Thanks. Have you noticed any progress?
I have her doing some exercises at home because I won't be able to pay for therapy until April, should she still need it. The speech pathologist I spoke with was very understanding and helpful.
It was a bit of a shock to find out that she's pushing her bottom teeth right out of her gums. :(

Please don't schedule a meet-up ten minutes before I'm due to arrive at my coffee shop, desperate for my morning's fix. The line was out the door and down the block. And do young people these days drink *anything* that doesn't involve complicated preparation? Fortunately, one of the baristas took pity on me and slipped me a self-consciously plain coffee (I prepay), and dog and I slinked away. :P
