"A cries over the irrationality of pi."

Hilarious. Amazing. I can't stop reading that sentence. I feel for her, but damn that's funny.

We had a difficult day today, and we've got two for you:

"open the new bread": We received a package this afternoon of our Zach-safe bread. He LOVES getting packages. We had to open it right away and take out a new loaf and open it and give him a piece. This is fine. Then, apropos of nothing, three other times over the afternoon and evening, he grabbed one or two new loaves out of the box and brought them over to one of us to have opened. We wouldn't, and he flipped out. (Normally, he totally gets "this one all done, open this one")

Then tonight after Karin put him to bed, he fussed. She went in and he perkily said "please make pie!" When she told him soon, but not right now, he screeched and cried for a long time. Even after we mimed out making and eating pie together, he needed some rocking and snuggles to calm down over the fact that we weren't going to really make pie an hour after bedtime.
