Oliver is playing with his laser gun
inbetween Mr. Nielson and I in bed.
It's about 10:00.
Mr. Nielson is looking at me with this puppy-dog eyes as if to say:
"Why is the kid in our bed, why are you still typing, and why the crizapp are you snuggled under my arm?
Seriously, I only type the truth.
Here's to making 2008 the BEST it can be.
