the kids were naked in the backyard wading pool and I called them in for dinner. My 5yo asked "can we eat dinner naked?" and I said sure. "But papa, what if the cops catch us?" she asked; I explained that usually, cops need our permission to come in our house. So: do we let them in? "NOPE!"

the five-year-old has been super into bringing her boogie board to the beach, saying she's "surfing." Today i was downloading some songs for the iPod, and she asked "papa can you download songs about surfing?" and i was like "you are in luck my child for that is in fact an entire genre of music"

we usually put the kids to bed before summer sunset, so we didn't make any family fireworks plans. But the morning after the city's fireworks show, the 7yo and 5yo drew pictures of the fireworks they saw; apparently they sneakily stayed up late and watched the whole show from their bedroom window

"gold medalist." boring. Common. Thousands of winners. So here's my idea: for a small fee (maybe $500) athletes can unlock the New Full Medal Schedule: 12. Bitumen 11. Tin 10. Aluminum 9. Bronze 8. Iron 7. Brilver 6. Silver 5.Silverada 4. Gold 3. Gold-Plus 2. Emerald 1. Trance

today i weighed down the lid of a yogurt pot (fermenting outside overnight, so need to keep animals out) with some olympic weight plates, and studied their rust patterns for replication on my 40k minis. If any archangels have bingo cards for me specifically, that probably gave one of them a bingo

An outdoor outlet in our Kentucky house had this going on; I reached in to plug something in, and felt a sharp shock. Reached in again and same thing; I thought oh no it's an electrical problem!! Then I squatted to look at it closely, and realized I was being repeatedly stung by wasps

I have plantnet and iNaturalist, but PictureThis is usually my go-to because it does the only thing I want to use it for - skip the ad with the upper right x, click a picture, it tells me immediately what the plant is. And then I can put my hands on my hips and say "spiderwort!" in pleased surprise

this Frank Black guy is great, but he doesn't really use enough backing vocals.. he should make a supergroup with, like, that chick from The Breeders. They could call it Francis And Tanya Donelly's Musical Extravaganza

there's a certain type of refrigerator content the household knows as "greg-only food" where i tell my wife "just a heads up, this chicken back here, do not eat it. it is bad, it vitally important that you do not consume it under any circumstance. don't throw it away though, i'll eat it tomorrow"

my three-year-old is now fully riding a bicycle by himself, but he's also small for his age, so when he's balancing and pedaling down the street, he looks like Kermit in The Great Muppet Caper. I'm watching him like "damn! I wonder how they made that look so real"

I feel like I'm a bit young for two dead parents. Not crazy young, but like in another 10 or 20 years, probably half the people I know will too. I gotta take advantage of this while I can. Maybe I can get Carvel to give me a free Fudgie The Whale about it
