me: "I have pizza, yes I do. I like pizza, how about you?"
abigail_m: "I do!"
me: "that rhymes!"
poeticdream: "woohoo!"
me: "that does too!"

Today poeticdream and abigail_m surprised me with two lovely father's day presents: a box of 20oz Bawls cans and a little 1GB USB memory stick shaped like a lego brick. w00t!

me: "abby, stop dilly-dallying! you know, the longer you just lay on the ground instead of putting on your jacket, the longer it'll be before we can go outside and play in the snow..."

abigail_m: "eat the booger!" *sticks out her finger with a booger she picked*

... "eat it!"

i have a day off of work today.

i'm spending it by going to ashwood with abby (sadly, for only the second time so far), bonding with my family, getting laundry ready, and working on my nanowrimo novel in full screen mode so as not to be distracted!

i miss my robin.

i hope abby wakes up soon so we can go check out the block party and pay mommy a visit at work.

fyi, poeticdream and i are now engaged to be married. yes, i know this post is short, but i should hurry home into her arms.

today was the first easter that abigail_m got to enjoy.

watching abby crawl from pile to pile of eggs excitedly made my day. seeing her shake the eggs and smile made it better. hearing her squeal with delight when she smashed the egg on the floor and m&ms came out made it that much better.

much thanks to poeticdream, for deciding to do easter.
