Here I am!

I know, I know, it's been a really long time. The thing is, once more than a week or so has passed, I feel like whatever I post next has to be really good, either funny or meaningful or at least newsworthy, but of course I have nothing funny or meaningful or newsworthy to share, and so the time continues to pass unannotated and the pressure mounts until finally, I break it with just such a boring update post as this. And so on to the updates!

Kids - except for the cold that we've all been passing around for the past 2-3 weeks (we should have bought stock in Kleenex, that's got to be recession-proof), all the kids are doing well. Twins are chattering up a storm and thinking they're actual people. Big boys are both doing really well in school, better than I'd hoped. Biggest kids are, I think, also well, although I haven't seen much of them since school started.

School - if you'd asked me yesterday morning, I'd have said school was going well. Unfortunately, I got back my first physics test yesterday, so that appraisal is no longer exactly valid. Words just can't express how bad this teacher is, or the depths of my frustration at the very real possibility that his incompetence is going to keep me out of med school. It gives me a headache just thinking of it, so I'll move on.

Not much else to move on to, actually, my life mostly consists of kids and school. Speaking of which - the twins are trying to slam each other in a door and I have to get ready for school. And this is why I never finish a coherent sentence, much less a post.
