Moles. Yep. Added to other frustrations, and say a bit of vulnerability, and I think they can make a person insane. We have a herd, or whatever they're called, right now. I like watching them push up the dirt though. I can't explain or justify it, but I like watching the fresh dirt move and knowing he's under there. Maybe the same excitement I feel when I see any animal. I like to sit and watch. Dirt, dirt, dirt, wiggle, get some more; push push push push push; dirt. Really push hard at the end there.

Home ownership is such a bummer. We just got an estimate on replacing our deck---10,000!!! After this market week, I've vetoed it. We'll just walk around the holes in the old one and hope no one falls through and sues us. Today was the first day of school. This is CW's Senior year. It was worse than kindergarten. I'm thinking of making everyone watch home movies tonight. We couldn't get the camera to work, which made me cry. We have movies of the first day of every school year... The traditional Oh my God, what IS this! First Day of School breakfast was a hit. I found a recipe online called the Rollercoaster. It's like a giant popover--it said to turn on your oven light and watch the action so I did...it was scary. Like a Special Effect--the kind when the alien starts moving around under the skin of the earthling? It swelled up and rolled and roiled. Then you take it out and it deflates and you pour syrup on it and it's like a flat, rubbery French toast. Also made bacon as a special treat and CW said, Ewww-I don't eat greasy fried pig. And Ammo said, Oh, me neither. So Dan and I ate it all. And I made pineapple shakes. The Rollercoaster really was fun to watch although there's something pathetic about a woman sitting alone in front of her stove oohing and aahing as her bread rises.
