  1. Sigh. Almost a third of the 10yo's baseball team isn't showing up #today. They're playing the best team in the league.

    Remember: the best ability is availability.

  2. What are we even doing here? This isn't a sandwich. If you're hipster, it's a long way from a "handheld." It's an abomination. A mess.

    A good sandwich shouldn't be a chore to eat. We shouldn't need to be hosed down when we're done, or need so many napkins the Ents go on the march. Nobody wants to feel like Dagwood Bumstead.

    Don't insult the customer's intelligence. Lay the bun flat, serve it open faced, and list it on the menu accordingly.

  7. Taking a moment here to brag and show some appreciation. For a school assignment, the 12yo had to write to a business. With no guidance from me and showing wisdom beyond his years, he decided to write to Home Run Inn Pizzaria.

    A couple of days ago, he received a FedEx package from Home Run Inn containing free pizza coupons, pizza plates, magnets, and the nicest note. Some marketing intern definitely earned their pay! Home Run Inn now has a fan for life. πŸ• #Chicago #Pizza #Food #DadThoughts

  12. It's Pulaski Day again and I have a question for K-12 #teachers in #Illinois: do you incorporate any lessons about Casimir Pulaski into your curriculum? Any acknowledgement whatsoever about why there's a random Monday off from school every March? Does he get a mention? Inquiring minds want to know! (I've been asking this question for years and have yet to get a response) #PulaskiDay #DadThoughts #History #Histodon #Histodons #Today

  17. It's amazing to me the stuff my kids will watch on YouTube. Most of it is absolute trash. But the other day the 10yo was watching a video some guy made about - wait for it - errors found in #Lego instructions. For instance: the instructions say to place 2 of a certain piece, and the picture shows 3. He had several examples! That's some seriously niche shit. And yet .. here I was watching over the 10yo's shoulder, FASCINATED.

    Don't be afraid to share your passion.

  26. The 10yo has no concept of the passage of time.

    Me: "Ok, we're leaving in 5 minutes. Be ready to go please."
    10yo: "What?!? You said we had to go in 20 minutes!"
    Me: "Right. I said that 15 minutes ago."

  31. The 10yo (previously known as the 9yo) received a new Switch game for his birthday.

    We need to create an account for him to play it.

    I remember back in the day when you just had to select "1 PLAYER" or "2 PLAYER" to play a video game. That was it. Nobody was asking for personal information. πŸ˜”

  41. The 12yo has his bar mitzvah scheduled for June, which means we are officially in the weeds with all the drama that comes with that and being in the seventh grade.

    A girl in his Hebrew school class asked him to help with her mitzvah project... but she's not inviting him to her bat mitzvah.

    Maybe I'm being a petty asshole, but I don't think that's very nice.
