Well, FIVE things
Just a few things:
1) Since having kids, Discokim and I have often said "One day they'll serve us breakfast in bed," usually invoked whilst mopping up vomit or some such odious child-related task. Well, this weekend, the two kids -- Claire (9) and Rose (5) -- got up on Saturday morning with no prodding whatsoever from us, and made us breakfast, which they then served us in bed. Hell, yeah! The menu was scrambled eggs, bacon, toast and coffee.
2) The weather here has finally turned from The World's Worst to somewhat tolerable, which has greatly reduced my homicidal urges.
3) The Who's 'Sell Out' is back in heavy rotation. What a great record. Maybe my favorite of theirs.
4) I had heard from a few sources that season 5 of The Wire was not up to snuff. Well, six episodes, I can safely say that those people are wrong. McNulty off the wagon! Unethical reporters! A big-time drug-dealing power-play! Omar! It's awesome, as usual, and I will miss it when it's done.
5) I have been sleeping pretty well. Sad to say, I think it was work-related stress. I hate to think my job can do that to me.
