I've been trying all day to think of something to say, some way to change the subject, some way to make it all better. I have nothing. Every time the Toddler inaccurately uses the plural when referring to the dogs, every time she asks for "Ja-jine," every time I realize I just walked across a room without kicking a white furball who spent the vast majority of her life under my feet, and every time I sit down and nobody jumps into my lap, it's like a kick to the gut. A very not nice, many years premature kick to the gut.



But, thank you all very much for your comments. While they don't "fix" anything, it means a ton to know that y'all are so incredible. You really, really are and have proven it so many times.



So, thank you.



Hopefully tomorrow will suck less and I'll have something to write. Until then, the Toddler managed to provide me with a spectacular way to change the subject. I've been trying to catch this on video for a while, and while the quality is crappy and Dancing with the Stars had the audacity to distract the kid and make her cut the performance short, it's still freakin' hysterical.
