"So throw away those Lamentations,
We both know them all too well.
If there's a Book of Jubilations,
We'll have to write it for ourselves.."

Vacation, morning, day 1

As some of you may know, I took a week off to try to fight the twin dragons of burnout and bitterness. Since I haven't had much alone time with my kid since, um, maternity leave I decided that it would be nice to just be at home with Stinks for a while.

So far this morning, she has attempted to eat:
1. Diaper paste
2. Cheerios with sun-dried tomato hummus scooped into her mouth with her toothbrush
3. Rocks
4. A pepper plant that we were putting in the ground
5. A grub (ew.)

And now, she's sleeping. Can you blame her? It's 9:15 and I need a nap, too!
