View From the Bushes

I forgot to mention as I was writing last night that I had taken my family to see Home on the Range. Looking at the reviews, I expected it to be okay -- not great, but palatable. Instead, it was appallingly bad. I never actually laughed and I only smiled once (when one character called another a "philistine"). My kids seemed to like it, so take that for what it's worth. (IMHO very little, they all fell asleep during The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari.)

In an amazing display of stamina, today was yet another crisis-filled stress-fest. I'm almost as sick of writing about it as you are of reading it, so rather than cause us both a lot of pain, I think I'll just end here.
