I have the best husband ever. I would love to tell you all of the reasons why he is so wonderful, but then you might get jealous and want him for yourself. But you can’t have him. So then it would just seem like I am gloating. And gloating is rude. So, I will keep all of the reasons to myself. Just know that he is awesome and I am very appreciative of him.\
In completely unrelated news, (heh), Kevin and I have this weird dynamic where one of us will want something- a bigass diamond ring, a really expensive car, to repaint the living room, etc- and after talking about it for awhile & the other person finally agrees, the person who originally wanted the thing changes his or her mind, realizing that spending the money isn’t the best decision.

Three cheers for Kevin

Small pleasures
The past few days have been filled with many small pleasures:
- Free lunch! I love Baja Fresh taquitos!
- Kevin and I finally put up the new curtains I bought 3 months ago!
- Taking the time to toast the bread for my turkey sandwich, because I am worth it!
- My new king-sized blanket. So soft and cuddly!
- Tivoed football games!
- Getting rid of clutter!\
What is the best thing you experienced this past week or so?

Playing at the Park
I didn’t have to work today (thankfully) and it was lovely, so we took the kids to the park! They had a ton of fun, and I had a ton of fun taking pictures of them having fun. The rest are up up on Flickr, but here are a couple of my favorites:

Calvin and Hobbes
The boys were the illustrious Calvin and Hobbes for Halloween this year (Max’s idea). Max was actually dual costumed, being both Calvin (seen here) and Spaceman Spiff. Lots and lots of pictures are over here. Brian totally dug Halloween and lasted much longer than Max when it came to trick-or-treating. His bucket came back full and then he hung out with us on the step stealing candy from his Aunt Heather and trying to blow out the candles in the jack-o-lanterns. Fun was had by all.

Vast Tracts of Time
I have so much vacation time that I haven’t used (I’ve taken a grand total of four days of vacation time all year), that I have to take off a huge chunk at the end of the year. How much time? My last day of work for 2006 is December eighth.\
I’m sure Jen will find stuff for me to do, but I’m looking at the calendar at those vast tracts of time and thinking that I might just have time to finish my “class project” (my “hey, let’s learn Ruby on Rails project) and launch it. -
Contest
Vote for #8 for a friend of a friend: Flying Spaghetti Monster contest. Yea, I got hella cool friends.

WOWee
Kevin came home at a decent time last night and we ate dinner all together. Later, Kevin and I sat together for over an hour while we watched tv. Baby, life is good.

They keeled him
Kevin came home. And then shortly became dead to the world for over 12 hours.\
I guess the thought of Supernatural was too much for him.\
Now I have to sing all by myself. “Wheel in the sky keeps on turning…” -
Kevin!
My husband comes home today! Yippeee! And there is a new Supernatural episode on tonight! Yippeee! And Max has been cleared of all breathing/lung/pneumonia/coughing problems! Yippeee! And I am going out to lunch today. Yippeee! Did I mention that my husband is coming home tonight? Yippeee! And he will probably be willing to watch Supernatural with me. Super yippeee!\
It is ok that NONE of you commented on my awesome link in my previous post. Really, I don’t need validation for the effort I put into this blog. Really, I don’t. I am fine. Just keep reading and not leaving comments. It’ll be ok. No skin off my nose… -
