  13. Happy birthday, you beautiful, beautiful boy. I’d send you a picture of another young man who was born on June 14, but when you point a camera at a seventeen-year old boy, you see. . . Nothing! He’s out exploring the wide world! Enjoy your time together, you guys.

    I wanted to make a joke about Action Transvestites/Action Babies but then I thought, well, if she doesn’t like Eddie Izzard that isn’t going to make ANY sense at all.

  39. I’m not sure how it happened. Last year we celebrated our son’s first birthday, and this year, because of some kind of space-time rift, or a magic curse, or evil faeries, he turned nine. There is just no way I’m old enough to have two kids in school.
