More Apocolypse

I can add to the recent signs of the times being reported.

On Friday I put the air conditioner into our bedroom window by myself, and in about 5 minutes.

I credit this to rote memorization from the last four years rather than any actual handyman skills of my own.

Internal clock

Mia just called me and put a very sad Ethan on the phone. He woke up from his nap and I wasn't home yet.

I normally would be. But, Mia worked on Wednesday this week so I came home early then and I'm staying later at work today.

I wonder if Ethan has a long-term internal clock that beyond just regulating him to 2 hour naps or getting up at 6:30am each morning. His longer clock tells him that on Friday, even though he can't conceptualize that as a day of the week, he should wake up from his nap and see me.

Interesting thought. No idea if it has any merit though.

Fort Couch

The corner of our living room is a great playspace. Recently, I've been making that area into a fort by tossing a blanket over the couch. Ethan likes having his own little place. And he's so cute when he goes in there.

Ethan Cam

Ethan always wants to hold the camera. Whether it's the still camera or the video camera, he likes to feel like he's in charge of it. So, today I decided to pass it over to him and see what we got.

I'm proud to present Ethan's directorial debut short film.

TV knows best

TV just taught me that it doesn't take years of hard work and sacrifice to develop a strong relationship with your family. It just takes money.

Specifically, this was a commercial for a home equity loan.

I guess I need a house of my own before I can really get close to Ethan.
