I am so happy we have been doing so much talking in the last few months.

Gabe is driving me crazy! He is somewhat clingy today. He always throws his food on the floor so this weekend I've started making him pick it up himself. He does it willingly! Hopefully he will get sick of it and it will become a deterrent to throwing food.

I'm going to have to have it out with Kinko's this week. I got 40 copies of something and they charged me almost $200, when the quote was around $60! They said it was because I changed the paper to cardstock. But when I discussed paper options with another employee she made it sound like the difference was negligible. I didn't bother getting a formal quote because it didn't sound like it was going to be much money.

It didn't seem that the manager I was dealing with was very smart, so I decided to call back and try talking to someone else during the week. Plus I want to get a few other quotes to show how ridiculous the charge was to provide additional backup. I hope I don't have to eat the difference.

I signed up for their new loyalty card program which gave me a 20% discount and brought it down to $150. But still. That's insane.

I think I'll get it worked out.

Oh I couldn't stand when my boys would throw their food on the floor.

That is crazy! You shouldn't have to pay that much of a difference.

I haven't heard of that, Val! Is it like a self-help series?

Yeah, and this food-throwing phase has been going on forever!

Now we're watching Dinosaur Big City! LOL Then it's bathtime.

I went upstairs and chapped G's ass about watching sports all weekend and not engaging his family. He looked at me like I had horns growing out of my head. Really? Sometimes I really regret marrying a jock.
