The lack of posts over the past few days can only be slightly blamed on the blog funk.  The distraction/problem that has been keeping me up at night but away from the computer is the addictive series of books titled “Harry Potter and the _____”.  You may have heard of them.  I’ll pause now for you to laugh and point your finger and make fun of me and click away from the site.

Oh, but you’re still here, because you know the books are that good.   Literary CRACK, I tell you.  Not because you can just crank through each one and can’t wait to get your next fix, but because I’ve sacrificed sleep to re-read books that I flipped through less than 9 months ago.  Exactly.

And of course this is because the fifth movie (which was one of my least favorite books) and the final book (which will pretty much make live less worth living once I finish) will be here in less than a month.  Soon.  So I’ve started at the beginning, again, and won’t see the movie or read the last book until I take in every addictively wonderful word.

Sure, I could be reading The Bible or something else I haven’t read but know I should…like Moby Dick or some other classic stuff, but then Megan wouldn’t be able to make fun of me for talking about how I want a magic wand instead of an iPhone (unless you can cast some spells or something with the iPhone, which I’m sure Apple is working on).  So that’s that, and there goes half of my already small audience.

Annnd Jonah has a cold, which he has managed to avoid for a while now.  We’re hoping that he didn’t contract it today when he ditched his delicious ice cream cone with sprinkles for a little bird poo on the picnic table.  To his credit, they looked a lot alike:  some white creamy stuff with flecks in it.  He did stick his tongue out after realizing that it was not ice cream, but not before Megan and I screamed and made sure that no one from Child Services was watching.

Live and learn, little one.
