I haven’t had much spare time to post an update so I’ll try and make it short.

My glasses came in a couple of days ago so I’ve stopped sporting the ever cool one arm look. I had a couple people suggest that I could have increased my geek cred by taping the arm on but I passed on that opportunity.

As for the squirrel about thirty minutes after my previous post he stopped making noise. I have no idea if he finally figured out how to escape or met some other horrible fate. I like to to think he figured out how to get out.

Last Thursday night Alex and Andrew were horsing around in our room upstairs when Andrew fell off the of the mattress he was jumping on and conked his head on the edge of the bed. He hit our box spring and it ended up giving him a pretty good gash right above his eye. It was deep and bleeding pretty good so we took him to the hospital where he needed three stitches to close him up. I’m not sure if the actual process was more traumatic for him or us since we had help keep him immobilize him in the “papoose” while they were put in. Now that he’s had them for a couple of days it really doesn’t look that bad and in the next day or so he’ll get them removed so we’ll see how it looks then.
