Hope Marie, you are four days away from being a month old and you've already become the light of my life. For once in my life, I have no words to really express just how much I love you, or how much I love how much your mom loves you. A year ago, I never thought I'd be here. Six months ago, I wasn't sure I'd be here, either, but here we are and you are the best thing I have ever done. ❤️

I'm not saying I've done this (😏), but I do know of at least two people this worked for sooo. Teachers are miracle workers in more ways than one.

WOLFES + SIG OTHERS

Including all of the non-blood Wolfes, just for some fresh perspective. 👍🏻

Mom and Dad's anniversary is just over two months and I know that's still a good amount of time, but I thought I'd see if anyone had any interest or thoughts to doing something special for them this year? It's not a milestone year, I guess, but 28 is pretty cool and I feel like they deserve it.

Hey, Dunhaven, what are some shows you'd like to see performed at the community theater?

ABBY

What are your plans this weekend? There are tickets to Wicked waiting for us if you're interested in a weekend trip to see it on Saturday.

My own dreams have made me particularly introspective recently, so I decided it's time for another anonymous post. This one isn't for any academic purpose (though each post is inherently good data for academic purposes despite their individual intentions), but it seems that a lot of us have found them cathartic. So, as usual, feel free to comment below--you will be anonymous unless you choose to be unmasked.

What lesson(s) have you learned from yourself the person you've been dreaming about?

My greatest lesson has been learning to truly value the people in my life who care about me. I already did, but there's something to be said for consciously recognizing that value each time I think of them.

I'm not a big social network sort of guy, outside of my pages for my business (check out Sparks Custom Homes, we're on facebook, instagram and twitter), but does anyone else follow the Iditarod? Yeah, I didn't follow it either, not until the other day. One of the mushers posted brief profiles of her dogs on twitter, along with photos, and I've been hooked ever since. You can see it here. (She posted another thread here after she narrowed it down to her final 14, but it's worth reading the first thread first.) Suddenly I'm rooting for a dogsled team.

Almost makes me want a dog.

While we were getting groceries today, there were some girls in the lobby set up and selling Girl Scout cookies. I bought a bunch because this is truly the best part of the year and Zoe had all sorts of questions about why they were selling cookies and what Girl Scouts are and so on. By the time we got home and the conversation had ended, she had decided that she wants to be a Girl Scout once she's old enough, which I am completely fine with. I like the idea of her having the opportunity to be around more kids her age and all of the other perks that come with being in the group.

That being said, I went online and saw that it's for ages 5-18. For a moment I was sad for her, because it would be so much time before she'd be able to join. But then I realized that she turns 5 this year. What more, she turns 5 in three months. In fall, she will be in kindergarten.

Long story short, I'm getting old and I ate a box of Thin Mints. No regrets about the second.

Okay, calling my mom was a dick move, whoever you are, but it's fine. Whatever. I probably deserved that. Calling my place of work with false complaints? Seriously, fuck you.
