Trigger?

It's a mighty cold day on the ol' commune. The water in the dog's dish is frozen solid. I'm not sure where the poor dog is. He's not allowed inside anymore, but he manages to find warm hidey holes anyway.

Keenan is busy making plans to take the boys to the inauguration. The plan is to leave at 3 am, drive to Maryland to a friend's house and park, and then take the hike and bike trail to the Mall. The boys are pretty excited. I'm not going, it just sounds like torture to me.

My friend Mala, who lives upstairs, had an ultrasound yesterday and was told she's carrying another boy. Keenan and I have been thinking up names: Trigger is our current favorite. Mala and Ezra don't agree. The baby's due in mid-March, so we've plenty of time to annoy them with weird and inappropriate names.

Looks like today's a day for the hammock shop. Hope the furnace is stoked. I'm glad I don't have a milk shift today (although I think I do for tomorrow...).
much love,
Kelpie
