yep that’s right, i’m doing a weekend recap, on a monday, like the day after the weekend. it’s like it’s 2003 again!

right so quite a weekend around the fort quite the weekend–i took friday off b/c the captain was having his long anticipated and much feared partial root canals, or pulpectomy or something. i’ll just give you the speech i give everyone, b/c they all ask the same thing:

1. he’s between 2 and half and 3. yes, kids get root canals.
2. no we really don’t give him alot of candy or juice. there are theories that night nursing can contribute to decay, there are just as many theories that say that breast milk has simple sugars that are easily broken down and doesn’t have an effect (affect? i nver get that right)
3. we do brush his teeth, but prehaps not as well as we could. the dentist told us that some people have bad enamel and they are susceptible to a bacteria that breaks down the teeth. he even said thatt here might have been some decay before the molars even broke through, yes, apparently it can happpen
4. he was put under using gas, then they ran an IV, yes it was general anthesia not twilitght .
5. the proceedure is farily common.

so that’s the majority of them. bascially we got him up and headed to the hospital. we had been telling him that he was going to play with a thing called the ‘bubble gum mask’ that would give him funny bubble gum smelling gas. well that was only half true, see the mask for the gas did smell like bubble gum but the gas…well that smelled like ass.

now we were fully prepared that the gassing out process woudl be harder on us than him. and that was pretty much the troof. he squirmed and freaked, the staff didn’t notice, we were panicked. but he went out in i’d say about 30 seconds. then natty started crying and we were out of the equation. an hour and a half later, we were in the recovery area with him as he woke up. he was groggy, disoriented and pretty miserable. but a couple naps and several hours later, he was ok. lips a bit swollen and with 3 metal teeth and one filling. he was a bit uncomfortable for sat and sunday, but not really that bad. modern medicine. i tells ya.

saturday was incredibly beautiful in the bawlmer area, the capt and i played outside and the family headed up to the depot and other errands. i got the final elements to my square foot gardening boxes. i also have the peat for the soil mix, jsut not the compost and vermiculite and shit. this weekend perhaps. i dunno.

sunday i put them together, mowed the lawn and did some other shit around the house. compelling, isn’t it!

so the macbook is pretty much complete. i upgraded the ram, got the super cheep office 2008 for mac nad have project (windows) but haven’t installed it yet. i’m like 97% of the way to getting entourage to make nice with my work exchange server, if i cna get that to happen, i’m home free….i don’t know why i care. but i do.

now i know the real mac experience is with their ilife apps, somethign, for the most part i dont’ really need. i mean i’d love to crack open iphoto and reorganize our 10′s of thousands of pics, but the home desktop is the designated photo machine, so until we upgrade to an imac, there’s no point. i’d love to rerecord all the el couche hits with garageband, but really, i don’ t have all that much time on my hands….so right now, i have a really really really nice web browsing maching. hmm. well never mind, i still get a techno boner when i use it. that’s what’s really counts…right?

right so this place is deader than disco lately, and i can’t say as i blame all of yall for not visiting. but i’m trying. i’m also bringing in help…
