Milieu of Me

I’m cooking dinner.  Enchiladas, and warming up the side dishes.  The boy are playing like crazy, just like every night.  We have an awesome routine we’ve hammered out around here as of late.
The wee one startes running from room to room, pulling his wagon of Lego’s behind him.  He does this OFTEN, and it’s like [...]

So I got my appointment at the big infertility clinic.  October 20th.  Last time this happened…well let’s look at the archives.  First let me warn you, I’m kind of vulgar in some of these posts.
There was this one time I called you suckers.

Then we got more [...]

Well I’ve been thinking over how this post would go for a long time.  How I would explain my position, and defend it, and I just think it’s a mute point right now.
I jumped back on the McCain bandwagon, after listening to him on the morals debate.  While many people felt Obama did much better [...]
