I am drawn to post-apocalyptic fiction like “Things We Didn’t See Coming.” I should stop reading it, though, because it makes me grind my teeth at night. I finished the book last night, and this morning I have a headache.
The powers that be at “Sesame Street” obviously want to get me to watch the show instead of using that precious hour for blogging. Case in point: Jason Bateman yesterday, Jude Law today. Well played, “Street” people. Keep it up and you’ll have my full attention for 45 seconds every day.
Poppy had a dentist appointment yesterday. When it was over, she said, “Mommy, I wish my dentist appointment wasn’t so quick.” #bestdentistever
Rockford did the grocery shopping for the week. As a result, we have nothing but cereal and pretzels for dinner. Still, that’s better than eating tree bark.
Two things I enjoy: Pete’s insistence on “the biggest hug” first thing in the morning; the face Poppy makes when she has an itch in an awkward place, such as the bottom of her foot.
This reminds me that I need to put my Search for the World’s Best Carrot Cake list in the sidebar. Also, that I have yet to make a delicious carrot cake. Not for lack of trying.
Two things I do not enjoy: Headaches that are impervious to Excedrin; unloading the dishwasher, which is what I’m off to do right now.
I hate unloading the dishwasher. It ranks right up there with putting away, laundry…which is why my dishwasher is full of clean dishes and my couch is full of clean laundry.

I’m obsessed with post-apocalyptic novels right now. You’ve read “The Road”, I’m sure. What about Margaret Atwood’s “Oryx and Crake” and “After the Flood”. Will Self’s “The Book of Dave” is absolutely fantastic.
