Late Addition

Not important--more journal type stuff to come upon later, if anything:

*We had a Lotto pool at work this week, spending $510 and apparently winning only about $14 on Friday's $275M drawing. So far I don't think there's a winner. I bought $20 in that pool and $5 on my own. $5 is all I normally spend, maybe once a month.

*At Target tonight a boy of about 13 came up and asked me if the pants he was holding were Navy blue. It freaked me out for a second, as I didn't know what was going on, but his dad stepped forward to explain that he was colorblind (I guess the kid wasn't so sure himself?) and the pants were needed for a school uniform.

*Earlier today I yelled at my son for shooting me in the face with a rubber plane that mounts on some kind of spring loaded gun. I didn't even really yell; it was more, "What'd you do that for?!" and a "That wasn't good judgment," and then he put himself in timeout, hiding under his captain's bed and saying that I hate him. Sensitive kid. I worry about him, especially as I'm good at dealing with fragile egos, moreso than he'll probably experience as he's growing and moving away from me. He said he was only aiming at my shoulder, for what it's worth, and this was after we were all wrestling, so maybe he was looking for an edge.
