Hunter's been in the same day care, run by a woman half-way down our block, since he was old enough to go. He's had a great time there and there were a lot of kids to play with. Over the course of time, the kids all grow older and leave or just move or what have you and right now, Hunter (who is nearly five, holy shit!) is the oldest. The closest ( Read more... )

Dawny had a derby bout tonight (Saturday). (Spoiler Alert: Her team won! Yay!)

I've mentioned previously that I don't care for them, personally, but I went to most of them anyway because, well, I'm trying not to be the worst husband in the entire world. We'd had the talk and agreed that I was off the hook for the rest of the season. Not enjoying ( Read more... )
