I used the last of the vinegar to rinse out the coffee maker and then I put the vinegar bottle in the recycling bin. Naturally, Nora took it out and started playing with it. That was Monday. Now it's Thursday and she is still carrying it around. Mike jokingly began to refer to it as her "baby brother." Mike named it Ephram-Wallace because Mike once had a dream that he had a son named Ephram-Wallace. I had a couple of beers, then decided it would be funny to give Ephram-Wallace a face.

This will come up years from now in Nora's therapy sessions, I am sure.
In other news, I got nerdy nerd glasses that I have to wear whenever I want to see something farther away than 10 feet. We are getting a vanity license place for the car that says SMELTZR this weekend. And now TODDLER is awake and crying and I must go.
