Just a quick note to say I haven’t dropped off the face of the earth… I should be back to posting nonsense by the end of the weekend. Sydney being in kindergarten has made me realize two things. First, sticking to a schedule’s a real bitch. It’s been a long time since I’ve had to and now I remember why I hated it.

Second, never in a moment of weakness when you see your little girl in her classroom sitting there so sweetly an innocently… never volunteer to “help out” in hopes of sneaking in a few extra moments with your baby. Because those teachers will put your ass to work. Today I was sorting library books for hours… my back is killing me, I’m pretty sure my arches fell sometime after lunch (which I didn’t eat, by the way, because I was too busy) and I had to use a midget-sized toilet that smelled like stale, wet gummy bears.

And now that I’m obviously walking around with a big neon ’sucker’ sign on my forehead, I couldn’t help but notice the president of the PTA eyeing me up like I was a weak gazelle easily separated from the pack. I see the writing on the wall… if I don’t claw my way out by weeks end I’m a goner. Say a prayer for me, and if you don’t hear from me soon, send in reinforcements.

On this day..
