Dollar bill as beer opener
They used a $20 up in Canada. I think that means we'd have to use a $10, $5 and four $1 bills ...

Hi, remember me?
Yeah, I've let this blog slide into the wasteland of non-updateville. Sorry.
It's just so much easier to post links to news stories I find interesting on Facebook. And it's easier to be pithy on Twitter.
Anyway, I've not forgotten about this place. I've got some ideas I'm kicking around. So those of you who bother to check in from time to time, be on the lookout for me trying things out.

Yet another thing nobody warned us about
We expected less sleep, less me time, less us time, less time in general. We expected more shopping trips for cute little outfits, diapers, formula and groceries. I expected more garbage, thanks to a mountain of diapers.
But I damn sure didn't expect to be swamped under a pile of dirty dishes. Tiny, saucer-sized dishes and brightly-colored spoons.
Here are the dishes Jen and I used yesterday ...
Here are the dishes (except for a couple of cups) that Paige used yesterday ...
Now notice, the top drawer is packed. That's because every food utensil designed for a baby has a "top rack only" designation on it. It makes for a difficult time loading the washer.
Now I don't know what happens if you put a baby's spoon in the bottom rack with the adult spoons. Maybe it melts. Maybe the plastic turns into a poison. I don't know. I don't want to know. But I do want to know why every company makes this stuff "top rack only." Find me a "It doesn't matter what rack" baby plate, bowl and spoon and I'll buy every one I see.

Brownie, avert your eyes!
This is a scarier video than that one of the woman in Little Rock crying at the town hall meeting.
