scattered thoughts

Meant to do a lot today. Didn't. Ended up mostly just puttering, while the boys spent most of the day with their friends. And most of that time was spent playing video games, quelle surprise. Apparently, Roberto has no toys, only video games. Well - that's not quite true. Justin reports that Roberto does have an action figure of Mr. Incredible (from McDonald's) and two other McDonald's toys. Yeah. Because you want your kid to be well-rounded, you know?

Going out and about tomorrow. Things to see, people to do. Kids to ventilate and expose to the world I'm told exists outside of computer monitor/TV screens.

Our long trips (to Calgary, Winnipeg, camping) still seem a little unreal, although they're getting realer by the minute. And! We might even be able to see Sarah & Rainer! I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but not doing so well.

I think I need a to do list, actually. Feeling way too mentally disorganized to get along without one.

• Pay MC
  
• Pay tuition
  
• Computer dudette
  
• Pay WW bill
  
• OSCA - check site
  
• Pack

Ah. I just got an answer to my question, "Are there still mosquitoes in Ottawa during the driest part of August?"

The answer is yes. Or rather, the answer was Yes, and now may be Maybe. Because I just squished one onto my screen.
