Five not-so-fun things:
- After work/school yesterday we were supposed to head over to J’s place, to play the brand new Super Mario Galaxy. The little man, who loves anything Mario-related, was too tired and just wanted to head home. So sad.
- Upon returning home I picked up the mail. A pile of catalogs I didn’t want, plus a notice from Ramsey County. My property taxes are going up again next year, by 17%. Yay.
- Tomorrow morning I take the little man back for his six month dental check-up. When I gave him the heads up he started crying in a panic. After his last dental adventures I don’t blame him (a tooth was pulled and a space maintainer installed), but I can’t get the point across that this won’t be like that. And this cleaning will actually help prevent such trauma in the future.
- I consume far too many processed soy products. My step-mother is convinced it’ll kill me. But hey, it’s the time of year for the seasonal Silk Nog. And now pumpkin spice too!
- I am a pushover. In general. And in some pretty specific instances.
Bonus: Photographic essays of modern ruins. Beautiful. And it brought to mind the deserted farmhouses in Iceland.
Plus: Short films about sheep, by Jemaine (of Flight of the Conchords).
And: There’s about a billion things going on around town tomorrow night. Shows and what not, the Diorama-rama at the Bell Museum, and an art opening with the best flyer ever. Yes, John Grider is a stud muffin.

Super yum! I’ll have to try that tomorrow morning (just been using the plain Silk creamer for coffee).
I wasn’t too impressed by the Pumpkin Spice on its own. But I’ve been enjoying it in my spiced tea :)
