- Dividing up McDonalds' Big Breakfast: Matthew and Melissa split the eggs and sausage. Each gets their own 3 pancakes. The only thing Isaac will eat is the hash browns. The biscuit goes in the trash.
- Matthew and I went 4-1 in Starcraft 2 today. I'm improving; I said GG after the loss. Matthew is just pleased when he isn't dead last in all of the post-game statistics, so he almost always has something to be happy about. (As Calvin said, "The secret is low expectations.")
- Me: "Complaining about a programmer's handwriting is almost as silly as complaining about a doctor's." Rachel: growls.
- Tonight Isaac spurned the chicken but filled up with edamame. Go figure.
- Bathroom forensics: Melissa leaves the light on. Matthew leaves the light on _and_ the seat up.
- For some reason, Rachel is less than 100% sold on my brilliant idea of spending our 10th anniversary at a gaming convention.
- Me: "If we spend our 10th anniversary hiking for two days, we are totally spending our 20th at a gaming convention." Romance!
- Melissa on Cinderella: "How come the glass slippers didn't disappear with the rest of the magic?" That's my girl.
- Rachel found the DataStax polo shirt I brought back from Strata. "Wow. This is terrible. Put this in the bottom of the drawer, wear the Riptano T instead."
- I'm stubborn, but when my dad forced ice cream into my mouth when I was three I admitted it was good. Isaac spit profusely. "Duck!" [yuck]
- Isaac is drinking a raspberry yogurt smoothie. Whenever he gets to a raspberry seed, he spits. He spits a _lot_.
- Matthew is preaching the gospel of Google Chrome to his unenlightened, Internet Explorer-using friend Conner.
- How picky is Isaac? He'll eat dark meat from poultry but not white.
- Matthew: "I just about killed myself [at gymnastics]." He sounds pleased.
- Matthew: "What's He-man?" We need to educate this boy.
- "Matthew, even Daddy thinks wiping boogers on the couch is gross."
- Rachel to Isaac, eating an ice-cream cone: "Want some help?" Isaac: "NO."
Matthew was nicknamed "Peanut" by his mother shortly after birth. How shortly, we're not really sure anymore; within the first few sleep-deprived days is all we remember. Matthew never did go through that period of sleeping all the time that baby books tell you newborns are supposed to have. Since his first abnormally alert days he's just become more and more active, and at some point his uncle Grant conferred upon him the moniker Savage.
