presently

I have a different post in mind, but because I've spent all of my evening free time this week fighting with the new cable equipment that the cable company said I didn't need because they are so great but then because they are so great they said I would need new cable equipment, I find that it is nearly bed time and I haven't time to write. Yes, bed time. I'm determined not to get sick when we get to Tokyo in November so I'm trying to get more than six hours of sleep a night.

Anyway, somebody recently discovered that the only thing more fun than pushing your father around in the Spinny Spinny (scroll down to previous post for that picture) is actually climbing in and riding it yourself.

Not pictured: the spinning.

And, yes, when she got out she staggered like a drunk over to the other Spinny Spinny and climbed in.

Mimi observed that trying to put a two-year-old in a car is similar to trying to put a drunk person in a car. Doing a lot of things with kiddo right now is like trying to do them with a drunk person. The difference being that a drunk person might sober up and feel bad about their behavior the next day. With the kid, the next day is an opportunity for more of the same.
