Since this weekend’s thunderstorms (mild at the worst), the weather has been absolutely delicious, with cool lows at night, and only mild heat & sun during the day. How I wish it would stay like this all year! Not really — I like all the weather, if you haven’t gathered that by now.
Last night, I dreamt of killing someone. Then I spent the rest of the dream trying to cover it up. I was nervous, distraught, etc. I had to kill others to keep the authorities from finding out. It was horrible.
Thursday, the thunder & lightning woke me up at around 3am, but I managed to get back to sleep & get to work on time — I got 55 bundles at work. Called G & asked if I could use her pickup to help Joe move on Sat. She said yes.
I got 61 bundles today at work (tying my record), but I broke the “pair total” record, finishing 3624 pair of jeans! That completely wiped out my record from last Wednesday. I was pretty happy about that — it should earn me about $92.
I worked on Saturday, getting 39 bundles of 13MWZ (Navy, rigid, cowboy-cut) jeans. My total pay for the week was $494, so — before taxes — it will indeed be my largest paycheck since February of last year (when I worked all those hours at McD’s — but that was a two-week check…) I should[...]
Another 50+ bundle day at work! Afterwards, I bought Gone In 60 Seconds & Shout on DVD. I watched Shout, & The Simpsons, while eating popcorn & a microwaved dinner. Then I worked for more than an hour on my Ode To My Mother, a poem I started last November, but only today finished. Since[...]
Woke up a little late, but still had time to fix my lunch and get to work on time. I finished 60 (!) bundles again — my 2nd time — but didn’t get quite as many pair as my previous record. Still, it felt good to know that I can still work faster than anyone[...]
I declined an invitation to eat lunch at Granny’s, because I was tired, & just messed around the apartment all day. I converted all my old T.I.C. Newsletter files to Word97. I watched the Simpsons, Futurama, King of the Hill, & Malcolm in the Middle on FOX, then watched Rush Hour on VHS. I couldn’t[...]
➤ A couple of nights ago, Rebecca woke up crying about 2 a.m. My wife heard it, rushed in. RLF said she needed to go to the bathroom. MF took her; RLF did. Then RLF went back to sleep. (I didn’t wake up. Noises will prevent me from falling asleep, but very little will wake[...]
After a cooler than average spring, yesterday was the hottest day of the year (high: 92°F) until today’s record high of 96°F. Had a pretty good day with Rebecca (scroll down for photos).
Rebecca did well with potty again today — still working on #2. After an early, short, and surprising nap (she put herself down at 11:50 for just an hour), much of the afternoon was full of fussing and craziness. I got a new debit card today, to replace the old one that was cracking and[...]

A few days ago, we passed what I’ve jokingly called “the Rebecca threshold” with our Benjamin pregnancy. She was born about 7 weeks before her due date. As of May 10, we passed that point in the current pregnancy. My wife’s at 34 weeks as of today, and about nine pounds lighter than she was[...]

Rebecca woke with a dry diaper this morning and kept her panties dry all day, using her potty correctly all day. We spent the day shifting from (1) us asking if she needed to go to (2) her telling us when she needed to go. And, after three days of holding it, she went #2[...]
Rebecca kept her diaper dry all morning, while MF was at work, and then wore panties the rest of the day, keeping them dry too. She even surprised us by staying dry during a supper trip to Dairy Queen (she had requested an ice cream cone). We put a diaper on her for the trip[...]
Big Milestone: Rebecca is now Three Feet Tall. Not quite tall enough for the WNBA, but on her way. She also crossed the 27-pound threshold for the first time (that we know of; we haven’t weighed her in a while). She’s 2.58 years (31 months) old. Compared to me: My mother didn’t record my height[...]
