no sleep till monday

Man, i'm tired. Or as toby says "dude, i'm pooped!" Then parker chimes in with "poopy dude! i pooped on you!"

What's with the poop talk happening already? His cute little sing-songs have all turned into poop songs.

Mary had a little poop (apparently)
It was big and smelly bum

Seriously though. I have never been busier. I have made two speeches in front of large groups of people in the past week and i have one more on friday. My irritable bowel has cranked it up a notch.

I have also had, at least, six people tell me i look really tired. Which is actually code for you look like crap.

And here i am trying to catch up on my feedreader and leave some lame comments so as not to appear a total snob. I made it to "S" before i realized it's late again. I have no wine to lull me to sleep and i'm all jumpy and nervous about my impending public speaking.

Monday is the first day of summer vacation. I will not pack lunches. I will not yell at tristan to hurry. I will not turn the television on. I will not spend an hour at the school talking to parents about their concerns.

I will let my kids be bored. I will enjoy my morning coffee. I will visit many blogs. I will photograph my new shoes.
