Day of the dead

Happy day after Hal­loween. This is not a pre­mo­ni­tion of the pass­ing of any mem­ber of our house­hold — I hope. (Any­way, that mem­ber of the house­hold is lick­ing him­self at my feet as we speak.) How­ever, when he does go, I’ll already have his calaca ready.

Today we have our bi-annual flir­ta­tion with divorce boat-hauling chore. Back later, if I survive.

    “flir­ta­tion with divorce” — ain’t that the truth.

    Our annual flir­ta­tion with divorce takes place when we put the Christ­mas tree on the stand.

    Our flir­tata­tion with divorce cen­tered not around an annual event, but rather, a once-in-a-lifetime event — the hir­ing of a Swiss au pair … Nie wei­der. Plus jamais.

    Del, we’re prob­a­bly going to hire a Czech au pair, and it will be insanely dif­fi­cult. Ano.

    ash­ley, it wasn’t dif­fi­cult for me; but my wife had some prob­lems with it. I’d do it again. I expect it’ll work out well for you. It’s a cool pro­gram altogether.

    N,
    The boat removal must have went ok. While I was fly­ing over Detroit tonight I did not see any boats chopped up into lit­tle pieces nor did I see a sail­boat in flames with Alan tied to the mast, like in the viking movies. My wife and I always get on each other dur­ing paint­ing and wall­pa­per projects.
