Sometimes I’m asked if step parenting is an easy job. Some people ask because they don’t know what’s involved with it and some people just think I’m a little immature to have authority over children. I’m a little insulted by the second one. I’m actually quite the disciplinarian. Just yesterday Jared didn’t finish cleaning the dishes before going to bed so I left him a note this morning before going to work.

Computers have 10 keys, right? I started counting them, got tired after 9 and just rounded up.

Yes. I misspelled “privileges”. I caught myself right after, was almost done with the note and thought “fuck it. I ain’t starting over”.
