Last week the husband bought a bunch of bacon for dinner. He recently discovered that the elder boy likes bacon sandwiches, and he decided to try him out on BLTs. So he went to Costco. Great to get so much bacon, but even if you eat nothing but BLTs for two weeks, you really can't eat that much lettuce, unless you really like salads (and personally, I think salads don't have enough starch or bacon or protein to make them worth the effort of shredding 2 heads of lettuce).

Speaking of bacon, I was given a few more hours at work, because apparently the new librarian can't start until next month. So I am working her hours, which at least allows me to bring home some bacon. But they are long hours, with no breaks, with lots of students needing help. I get really hungry on the desk, but am not supposed to eat or drink on the desk. Makes things difficult.

I am looking for some more work. Lots of applications going out. Let's see what sticks.

I am now hungry for bacon.

What's the best music documentary or concert film you've seen?

don't know if this counts, but "a hard day's night" by the beatles.

and, we're okay here in the 805 area code -- the air quality is better, and the malibu fire is closer to being contained. i worry about the piru fire, but we shall see. the boys are still able to breathe, which is good.

my baby is big -- at 4 months, he weighs 17 pounds 4.5 ounces, and is in the 90-95th percentile for weight, height, and head measurement. he rolls over. he tries to eat my kisses. he has blue eyes still. he wears 9-12 month clothes, and enjoys sitting on daddy's shoulder like a parrot.

the big boy is doing great at reading, and has an awesome 1st grade teacher. he is in scouting, with dad as den leader (my moral quandary about the boy scouts remains, but oh, well). he is taking classes at church called our whole lives, which i hope will convince him to stop using the vulgar slang "nuts."

i have seen interesting job ads, but as much as i miss being in the adult world, i love my baby an awful lot and would miss him. but i also get tired of not having much in my life that is interesting to talk about, besides kids and school stuff. decisions...

bret michaels made the right choice, i still love "how i met your mother," and have enjoyed "reaper" so far. and yay, new "avatar!" i love tv. and OMG, peyton's birth mom! (i am watching "one tree hill" on soapnet).

will post a protected picture of the baby soon -- he is so cute and active, and has a beautiful smile!
