A few things this morning.. I used to make fun of all of those movies and shows that shows the half asleep parent wanderingly aimlessly down the supermarket aisles hunting for diapers well after midnight. I thought how stupid do you have to be to not plan to have back-ups of back-ups. All of this was running through my head as Oxley and I strolled through Target early this morning to pick up some of those aforementioned diapers, Now I could see how this happened.

However the funny part of my story is upon returning home, there in the living room sat a fresh box of diapers..

Second, when you open up Firefox, it gives your their like random selection of articles and once in a while they get me with the titles, usually it's a decent article about productivity or some obscure histroical tale, but today they had a beautiful poem.. So I thought I would share! Hope everyone has a great day..

Crossroads, by Louise Glück
Crossroads
My body, now that we will not be traveling together much longer
I begin to feel a new tenderness toward you, very raw and unfamiliar,
like what I remember of love when I was young –

love that was so often foolish in its objectives
but never in its choices, its intensities
Too much demanded in advance, too much that could not be promised –

My soul has been so fearful, so violent;
forgive its brutality.
As though it were that soul, my hand moves over you cautiously,

not wishing to give offense
but eager, finally, to achieve expression as substance:

it is not the earth I will miss,
it is you I will miss.
