I hope this one does. I said I was going to ask my dad about the poem.<BR/><BR/>It's odd but really nice. I saw him yesterday but forgot to ask him about it. Maybe I'll remmeber to ask him tonight.<BR/><BR/>And now that I'm looking again, I can't believe I missed that card from Gerry before. I must have just scrolled by it to look at the poem. It's pretty interesting. It reminds me of an artist whose name I can't recall at the moment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1081128129625434314.post-83918177106318431012007-10-31T11:39:00.000-04:002007-10-31T11:39:00.000-04:00Well, I'd hoped that they would realize that they ...Well, I'd hoped that they would realize that they depend on me so I could drive a point home, which is--I do things that I don't want to do that benefits you, and you have to do the same. I felt some success the other day, when Luka refused to get his vomity self into the shower, and when Evan started whacking him with a tube and saying "Get into the shower, get into the shower" I refused to intervene and make Evan stop. I said--hey, why should I try to make Evan do something when he sees that you don't listen to me? Why bother? Finally, covered in red welts, he said OKAY I'LL GET INTO THE SHOWER!! I just don't know why it has to get to that point.<BR/><BR/>I refuse to think of that song, I do not want that in my head.Ypsipearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01879799614074949975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1081128129625434314.post-79446116566101660692007-10-31T11:10:00.000-04:002007-10-31T11:10:00.000-04:00Oh, and btw, I now have that Flock of Seagulls son...Oh, and btw, I now have that Flock of Seagulls song from 1982 stuck in my head thanks to the title of your post. <BR/><BR/>Aack.

O will throw himself in front of the bike sometimes when I try to ride off for a few hours, but I when get back, I hear the "performance" didn't last as long as it took me to get to the end of the block. I say "Hi, O, I'm home." He shrugs, "Okay, I'm going outside..."<BR/><BR/>Glad you found a way to decompress that worked for you.Zoe the Wonder Doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741569369901070755noreply@blogger.com
