They were each at different points of development physically, mentally and emotionally.<BR/><BR/>This morning Baby Yam told me that downstairs it was "dork." It took me a while to figure out he wanted me to turn a lamp on.<BR/><BR/>Dear gl.,<BR/><BR/>You're absolutely right. I'm an idiot. I had it in my head that the first Potter book was published in 1991 when in fact it was <I>1997</I>.<BR/><BR/>So, yes, the children's reaction should have been, "What the devil is a Hairy Potter?"<BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/>Cheeseburger BrownCheeseburger Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384136287767500794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-1166508121734416672006-12-19T01:02:00.000-05:002006-12-19T01:02:00.000-05:00i can't remember mike's timeline anymore. is the h...i can't remember mike's timeline anymore. is the harry potter reference anachronistic?gl.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11890196589573443189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-1166476575977801752006-12-18T16:16:00.000-05:002006-12-18T16:16:00.000-05:00Dear Mark,In retrospect I probably should've defin...Dear Mark,<BR/><BR/>In retrospect I probably should've defined the term, but I guess I'll leave that to readers should they be reading to someone who doesn't watch hospital dramas.<BR/><BR/>About the Secret Santa: I'm honoured to have this story make the rounds!<BR/><BR/>Dear Simon and Sheik,<BR/><BR/>I confess, the climax is even mushier. What can I say? It's Christmas!<BR/><BR/>Dear Anonymous,<BR/><BR/>Now if the child's molars would finish cutting I'd be in fathering paradise!<BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/>Cheeseburger BrownCheeseburger Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384136287767500794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16435271.post-1166471869549283422006-12-18T14:57:00.000-05:002006-12-18T14:57:00.000-05:00Our office is doing a gift-a-day Secret Santa.As p...Our office is doing a gift-a-day Secret Santa.<BR/><BR/>As part of my gift, I'm printing and thrice stapling one fifth of "Pink Santa" each day.
