Callen took his first solo steps yesterday and had his first timeout today
he thinks it’s funny to hit me in the face. he is unfortunately mistaken
but this is developmentally appropriate if vexing
'developmentally appropriate if vexing' sounds like an important parenthood mantra
I tell him this to his face sometimes
Callen I’m not enjoying this but it’s developmentally appropriate
he probably appreciates the transparency
he walks and all hell breaks loose
i was on the phone with my sister today and in the middle of our conversation my niece (2) hit her repeatedly and then when my sister made her stop doing it she asked, "is that upsetting you, mommy?" toddlers are sociopaths. like i know this is how they learn what empathy is etc etc but my god
I did it I caught up on the Kendrick-Drake beef
a muscle in my jaw keeps twitching and it's weird
up to the minute news brought to you by my twitching jaw muscle
can you believe the torment he endured
sun’s out
such nice weather todaaaay
I love when it's sunny bc if Sterling is in the pantry with Pip and me as I'm letting him out, she'll just be like oh! don't mind if I do. and trundle out after him
being one million years old she just kinda stands there in the sun, and one of these days I'm going to let her come out with me so she can enjoy it fully
bc for now I have to bring her back in so I can go to work etc
I wouldn't dream of keeping the President from her sunny naps
a whole nest fell out of one of our trees :U
also

sister sent me a couple box (for her own birthday lmao- I sent her Swordspoint and one of the sequels and she insisted on getting me back)
time for me to finally read Gideon after putting a hold on it and then forgetting 15 times in a row
never heard of the other one but I’ll always read more books
boox* god damnit autocorrect I know what I wrote
I’m still working on the Fall of the Kings by the Swordspoint author and enjoying it despite being warned against the sequels
I loved Privilege of the Sword so I wanted to give it a chance and it’s paying off so far, idk, I’m into it
maybe it will have a really stupid ending or whatever but I just like how Ellen Kushner makes me care about her guys
