Last night my oldest daughter told me that her school gave them a number to call for help with teen issues where you can talk to adults.

ME: What kind of issues?

VICTORIA: Anything we go through…like depression…puberty…

ME: Puberty? They have a crisis line for puberty? What kind of call would… that be? ‘Hello Teen Crisis Center, can I help you?’ ‘Help me! Hair has started growing in my pits!’

For those of you who know me past and present, you can probably tell me a lot by reading this whether it be morals, karma, or whatever your persuasion. Feel free to comment

JADYN: Daddy, open this there’s money in it.

Today we were discussing the finer points of twitter when John said that he doesn’t care to have people knowing what he does all throughout the day. Travis said He did.

I responded:

“Dude, once you get in to self-worship there’s no going back.”

It is addictive.

With my kids today at the beach today at OB:

“I wish sand didn’t soak up all the water when I pour it.” – Victoria
“Yeah, but if it didn’t then sand wouldn’t be sand, it would be rocks.” – Paul
“What? No it wouldn’t” – Victoria

“We will, we will rock you.”
- Jadyn singing to herself while building a sand castle.
