I am very wound up tonight. Here is why. First, I have just an incredible woman in my life who took a day that has never been particularly special to me and shown me that it is special to her. She makes me feel good. Second, my job is very exciting and it makes me want to delve into it and become an expert. I honestly look forward to the next day. Third, I know that I am going to have a fantastic Wednesday because Boss and I have incredible plans for that day.

The scene: I am relaxing on the couch, sleeping puppy beside me, Boss doing some online shopping, fresh gerber daisies on the kitchen counter and the place smells like brownies.

This peace is worth everything that ever came before it.

Boss just told me that one of her kids stuck his hand in some vomit in the restroom…because another student told him to do it. She said she almost knocked their heads off.

I love her work stories.

1. Boss’s class is doing F words. I liked the M words. My magical mouse loves meatballs and mints!

2. We are watching Wife Swap. (Because sometimes we’re cultured that way.) I could not participate in this show. As I understand it, the premise is to supplant a wife with her polar opposite and see how much her family will endure in order to get fifty thousand dollars they have no autonomy to spend. I just tried to imagine the polar opposite of Boss. Well, there’d be less shoes in the closet, that’s for sure.

4. Little Filthy just stood next to me and went *Cakk!*
