- Iran news and images via Twitter. Can’t look away. And it breaks my heart: I don’t see a way around more violence and bloodshed and pain.
- Z decided that bananas and blueberries are edible after all.
- There’s been a shift in her mentality of late: when she’s done eating and getting a little bored, she chucks things on the floor not just to signal that she’s done but on purpose to annoy me. You can totally see it in her face.
- We found a Hungarian playgroup so that she can hear other people speak Hungarian too, not just me, and most of the babies there were noticeably skinnier than the average American baby. Just like Z. Go figure.
- Z’s now really into the idea of walking but it’s all still rather tentative so if she has to get anywhere fast she’s just goes, eh fuck it, and drops to the floor and crawls for it.
- My birthday passed. It was mostly fun and I don’t feel older just more tired. On the one hand, A. threw me a birthday barbecue party, and lots of friends came, and it was so very lovely. I haven’t had a birthday party in very, very, very many years and it turns out they’re fun at any age! On the other (and much smaller) hand, he completely forgot the day of my actual birthday.
- Z likes chocolate cake and chocolate ice cream. Also avocadoes, especially when I make my special mix consisting of one avocado and two really fat teaspoonfuls of tehina. So yummy.
- Making food reminds me: I’ve started to use my iPhone as a timer while cooking. No idea why this didn’t occur to me right after I bought it, I’d have saved the price of one timer that is now broken due to the helpful ministrations of a now one-year-old child. She’s now after my iPhone, she hearts it so much it hurts but – no.
- Also? I like to keep the iPhone on silent, or rather: vibrate. Because when I leave it on the table and someone calls, it buzzes like a bug that’s been flipped on its back and I find that funny. I suppose that’s sort of mean on my part.
- And now I have to go back to reading the news again, on Twitter. I can’t help thinking of December 1989 – we were glued to the television then.
