• I had a phenom time in Monterey. The weather was gorgeous. 
• A squirrel tried to attack me during cocktails, but he dodged at the last moment. Other than that, great trip.
• We are trying to plan a long weekend, as soon as inlaws give me the dates they can keep the kids. 
• I should be hearing about my new position at work very soon, which is doing nothing for my productivity.
• We should have the building permit for the house this week. 
• Andrew has decided he never wants to go to school, only stay home. He won't say why, and he always has a great time at school (I observe when he doesn't know I'm there).
• Aurora still loves camp. And she came home and told us a gruesome horror story she heard there.
• I was her age when I heard my first horror story on a camping trip.
• We made her hair more purple, this time just at home. Much cheaper, and so far, more effective.
• I started painting the trim in the hallway and the entry today. Just doing a little at a time, hopefully get it knocked out.
• Tomorrow I have a spin class, Thursday cocktails with a friend, and Friday Rory and I are going to a pottery class. 
• Saturday is friends over for dinner and boxing and brunch with another friend. 
• Next week Ryan is in Vegas and Aurora's in Columbia. Just me and the boy. 

Purplier hair and silly faces

He wasn't even tired.

"Andrew, do you want to be a fire fighter when you grow up?
"No, I want to be a firetruck!"

"I'm not tired, Daddy."
