Back to work

I went back to work today. I’m only working one day a week for a little while. But it’s good.

The Vol-in-Law called me at about 11am. When I got off the phone, my co-workers wanted to know if the baby was doing alright, if the ViL was doing alright.

“Oh no, everything’s fine” I said. “He was just in the cemetery and told me there was a floral tribute of leaping dolphins that I’d probably want to photograph tomorrow.”

Old co-workers were not surprised. New ones – well, they thought that was a little weird.

Keep on rockin in the free world

Yesterday I got my paper notice about the Global Primary. (If this link doesn’t work, don’t worry – more info below). Since Buddy is eating paper these days, I wanted to get it on the bulletin board and out of his way. But of course, I forgot and left it dangerously close to the changing area.

Me: Hand me that voting thingy.
Vol-in-Law: Voting thingy?
Me: Yeah, that paper there.
ViL: Oh, your voting thingy. (Extra derisive tone where you see italics).
Me: Yeah, you know the vote the directs activities in the free world.
