Me: What did you buy?

Him: I am now the proud owner of a professional-model unicycle. It arrives Wednesday.

Me: I hope it comes with a helmet.

My electric personality

My one reader out there (hi, grandma!) may have noticed that I haven't posted much lately. That's because, as my current streak of really really bad luck would have it, I shocked my computer and it died.

True story.

While working on the computer, I stood up from our dining room table, took approximately a step-and-a-half to put Anthony's pacifier back in his mouth (Does that make me a bad mom? I'm new at this.), sat back down at the table and touched my finger to the keyboard (the nerve!). There was a small shock and the entire computer blew up.

Which should be soon, I hope.

Until then, I'll be putting my "energy" (ha!) into doing this:
