Tommy wouldn’t get up this morning so we had to drive him to school. After that Amy went to the pede to get her stitches out and Molly visited the vet. All of that took so long that Doug didn’t have time to go anywhere fun. Something about needing to work. Now Amy and I […]

Since Michael brought up the subject of Hardees commercials, my favorite one has a pregnant woman pigging out on a thickburger while a voiceover informs her that she’ll be spending her next 18 years at McDonalds.
