Happy Father’s Day! Forgive me upfront as I’ve already consumed several beers with no stopping in sight. (But seriously, I do need to stop soon or a massive hangover is sure to ensue.) The kiddos are asleep! Philip and I are on our own computers here in the home office. He’s watching some LAME videos and I’m listening to 80’s alternative on my HEADPHONES (because some cranky-ass complained about the cross-noise). How nerdy are we? I even sent him an IM through Facebook. Too bad he won’t humor me with a reply!

So tonight was really nice. I attempted a Shepherd’s Pie recipe for the second time and surprisingly, it turned out pretty damn good. I would post the recipe, but am fastly approaching “too buzzed” to talk about anything serious. But needless to say, I’m pretty smug right now about my new-found cooking abilities (if you want to go so far as to call them that). Remember this is coming from someone who could barely boil water correctly. We also watched Wall-E with the boys. Gavin was all over the place, but I was happy with how well Quentin sat through the movie. He was so cute! When they showed scenes of Wall-E and EVE in love, he would say “Mommy and Daddy!”. He’s only 2.5, but wondering if he isn’t ready to see a movie in a real theater yet?

Tomorrow is a new week and I’m hoping to be a bit more productive than I’ve been in the last two weeks. I think I’ve had enough time to let the newness of being unemployed settle in. It’s time for the domestic ass-kicking to set in and the crazy-mad organizational skills to take ahold of the situation. Unfortunately, having two screaming, hyper houligans running around makes for little time to do anything but CLEAN UP AFTER MESSES. Forget about forward thinking! Somehow I must master the art of entertaining the boys AND cleaning/organizing. Or I am just crazy to think it’s even doable?

P.S. the worst part of drinking beer is having to PEE every 15 minutes!
