Happy President's Day!

Evey on Monday, posing with some friends.

Thanks to Neuty, who came over last night to help me move a couch and a recliner (Adro bought a new living room set because, yeah) and also helped me separate Evey's bunk beds, so now both Evey and Boyd have their own twin beds.

Which also means Boyd doesn't have a crib anymore... which was cool for one night...

And now it's occurred to him he can get out of bed as he likes. 

So night two, which is progressing badly right now as I type, is showing us that it may be a difficult transition for Boydee, Adro and I. 

Just now Adro was paying bills at her desk in our bedroom. Completely silent in the house (I've got NBA on TV, but at a low volume.) Out of nowhere: "Mom. I need a diaper change. I pooped."

Adro may have also pooped, because this scared the shit out of her. Me too, and I was 30 feet away.

I mentioned three weeks ago that I was hopeful Evey's tooth would fall out soon. It FINALLY fell out yesterday. It was ridiculous, it was flapping all over her mouth. But she refused to let me touch it.

That may have been a parent fail by me. 30 seconds of sheer terror could have saved her three weeks of babying that tooth.

I would trade Steve Blake too, if he played for my team.

How cool would it be to work in a place where you could trade personnel? 

"Sorry, Jerry... your numbers have been decent, but I'm going in a different direction and sending you to Milwaukee."

Boyd just woke up AGAIN. Came out of his room wide awake, and happy. This Superman photo was taken just now.

Took Evey to see Lego on Monday. It was awful. I fell asleep three different times. At one point I woke up and there were real people in the film. Evey said to me, "Dad, I have no idea what's going on!"

I said, "Me too!" and fell back asleep.

Already missed Pixies in Kansas City, and have managed not to buy tickets for QOTSA in May. One of my New Year's Resolutions of spending less money on concert tix is off to a good start!

Go to bed, son of Jor-El.

Why the hell did Cleveland trade for Luol Deng if they're going to put him back on the market a month later? Awful.

Syracuse, beaten by lowly Boston College tonight. That's cool.

Boyd told me a knock-knock joke tonight:

"Knock knock!"

"Who's there?"

"Evey!"

"Evey who?"

"Evey loves me!"
