porno horror

The Blake is sick. And here I was thinking that he was just fussy and unwilling to toilet-train; I should've known something was up when he pooped four times in one day. After midnight we were awakened by wailing. When the Boy investigated, he found Blake weeping into a puddle of sick. Poor little guy. We washed & changed him, then he fell asleep immediately in my arms.

The Boy & I? Not as lucky. For some reason, the two of us were staring at the darkness until Blake woke up again (2:30). Blake & the Boy decided to go sleep on the couch, where they did fine until about 3 (when Blake woke up and started complaining, threw up, and declared that he felt better). Enter the third pj shirt of the night and a big bottle of Chomp!

The three of us slept fitfully until the morning, when the Boy & I dragged ourselves through the freezing rain to work and the Blake snoozed on in the big bed.

He's in good spirits now, but he's still having a closing sale in his digestive systems (everything must go!). I'm hoping that one more night will help; hell, I'm hoping to sleep through more of the night myself.

Left a note for Mason on the desk we time-share:

Mason -
We need to talk about exam prep. My kids are starting to freak out.
- Rocketbride (the one with the glasses)
P.S. Do you want to come to a po-mo horror movie this Friday? :)

He told me later that his kids poured over the note, making terrible assumptions about "Rocketbride" and this "porno horror movie" she wanted to see with their teacher. I laughed for a long time – I'm unsure whether to fuel this suspicion or let it die down into coals. Both seem equally diverting.

My sister Pixie has a new kitten, whom she has named The Cheat. Today she sent us two emails of pictures, one of which was titled "The Cheat's Cheatventures in Moses Malone Land." Toooo much.

Don't make me send out the Blake. He doesn't listen to *anyone.*
