I keep coming back to Ryan Gosling's big, sad eyes.

As it turns out, one can have too much garlic.

We went to Boston's tonight and the canister of granulated garlic was pretty full and, predictably, I shook some out anyway, and well, you know the rest. Now Ryan won't come within five feet of me and I can't stop burping. Who says I'm not sexy, huh?

Zac's been waking up at an ungodly hour for the past couple of days. I keep promising myself I'll get out and take a long walk somewhere in the morning or at least clean the apartment, but then he falls asleep after I drop Katie off and I end up joining him, like it or not. They say "sleep when your baby sleeps", but I'm sure by "baby", they didn't mean "toddler".

In the ear: Fumbling Towards Ecstasy by Sarah MacLachlan, especially Elsewhere

Meanwhile, the school situation with Katie just makes me increasingly angry. I want to pull her out, but don't really know how or when. The most likely alternative is home schooling, but the mere idea of it makes me dizzy; sometimes I can't even get her to pick toys up off the floor, so how will I make her sit down and study with me ALL DAY? I hate her school; I hate that everything they think I need to know about what she does all day is shoved into a folder.

Private school? Sure. I only need one kidney.

Eh. It sucks. We can try for Kamehameha again at 4th grade.
