It is so freaking hot and humid. I want a swimming pool. And not one of those body temperature fuckers either, i want to freeze my ass off when I jump in.

Daughter's 10th birthday party tomorrow. It was supposed to be in the back yard, but it's shaping up to be another rainy day. Humpf. Our house is too small for indoor parties.

Juni...this might be a good time to have a talk with your husband. Maybe even ask him to go with you to the doctors next time. Either that or start to mentally discount his views (if he thinks it's an excuse to be lazy). You have a right to live yourlife as you want/need to live it; married or not. I also suspect (tho I may be wrong) that you have sugar coated the pill for him and not actually let him realise just how serious this is. Something has to give. If you don't deal with this and quickly, what gives might be your heart. Please, please take this seriously honey.

OK, remember I said that I accidentally washed my son's cell phone?
It didn't work. I waited, let it dry, and all it did was go to the AT&T screen. Oh well. I put his SIM chip in my old phone. It's an old Nokia flip phone. My daughter used it after her brand new phone got run over by a car when she dropped it in someone's backyard at a bonfire party. My son wasn't thrilled with it, but at least he had a phone. His 2-year term is up in August, and since we're fairly happy with our service, I can get him a new, nicer phone then. But I'm not sure if that's such a good idea. Because... Guess what happened? I just found the old Nokia... In the dryer. |

Or stop washing his clothes before he's done wearing them.

Most kids 'nowadays'...... you'd have to wash their hands along with the phone. You never see the two separately.

![]() Hey, lad, you're going to have to live without a phone until August. Uncool? Your own fault. Empty the pockets before you take stuff off. Let it become habit.

I am mildly irritating myself today.
I should have done some work from home yesterday, got set up for off campus access. But some friends I haven't seen in a while were having a party, so I decided I deserved a day off, after a long week with late nights. I went. I didn't have that much fun. I was home really early but tired and buzzed from beers in the hot sun. Today we are going to my brother's for father's day festivities and swimming. I suck at being a workaholic.

I may as well get him a phone -- that is, a $10 pay-as-you-go. It's cheap and doesn't do much, but you can put the existing SIM chip in and it functions just like the other ones on his current plan. You don't have to use the pre-paid service.
I'm paying for the service anyway, and though it's just a month it's very important to me that the kids have phones. Experience has taught me that you just never know when it'll come in handy, even if it's just to find out how much longer they'll be in line for the roller coaster. AND I don't know if I'll be getting him that new phone in August. He's usually very, very responsible with his stuff -- he's had the phone for almost 2 years (and he's only 11), DS, MP3 player, taken them everywhere, and the only casualties have been styluses (styli?) and earbuds. But I think it's a good opportunity to let him earn it by showing responsibility in other ways, like cleaning up after himself - the boy seems to think that there's a maid following him around everywhere he goes. Oh wait, that's me. When he does earn it, it'll be nice to have an extra phone (the cheapie) because with a family of 4 cell phone users you never know when one might croak or ....you know, get washed. I really need to get rid of our regular land-line service. There's no point, nobody ever uses it. The only reason we have it is it's bundled with our ISP and cable. Maybe I can find a better deal. |
