3/18/2005 09:50:00 PM|||Amy|||Bear and I are going on a road trip in the morning with his friend, Hunter, and Hunter's mom. We are going to visit a small zoo about 2 hours from here, stay in a motel tomorrow night and then head back on Sunday.

I am so tired tonight that even sitting here thinking about how I've met a surprising number of people lately who spell 'sitting' as 'setting' fails to keep me awake enough to write a third sentence about the weekend's big adventure.

Was it a bad idea to teach Bear yesterday how to say 'Pogue Ma'Hone' to anyone who wished him a happy St. Paddy's Day? Is it mean of me to point out to well meaning co-workers that when writing Paddy, or Paddie or whatever the hell it is, as a diminutive form of Patrick, it is grossly incorrect, and potentially emasculating, to write the name as Patty?

Is it possible that my ob/gyn might prescribe Ambien?

Not that I need it.|||111120491776605229|||Another Reason to be Happy (Bear)
