I dragged the Wife to a Bob Evans for dinner last night. Mostly, I just had a craving for sausage gravy that would not go away, and I needed my fix. I was pretty pleased with the gravy, especially the fact that it came in a giant bowl. The Wife was less than impressed, though, but she’s not really a gravy fan.
Pretty full day. Spent most of it cleaning. Also tutored, though. I’m pretty beat.
Two neat things of note, though: I passed 100 followers on the blog this weekend! It feels like a pretty big milestone, and I’m glad so many people enjoy what I’m doing here.
Second, my youngest brother’s son was born on Sunday afternoon! He was a couple of weeks early, but like most members of my family had a huge noggin, do he had to come out via C-section. Mother and baby are doing fine, or so I’ve heard. I won’t get to see the tyke until August.

Sometimes, the bureaucracy and ridiculous red tape of the public school systems just makes me sad.
Sorry about the delay in yesterday’s comic. Here it is in all it’s glory. The comic started out more saccharine and Hallmark-y, but I couldn’t resist that last panel.
I’ll have another comic up later tonight.
I actually used this explanation in class today, but while I was talking to a student, not my wife. Though it would not be unusual for me to do something like this to her.
Yup. Wife took an extra-long nap tonight. That does not bode well for bedtime.
This is pretty much exactly how I’ve felt all day.
