24 hours of firsts

The past 24 hours have held some very odd firsts for me.

1. I cut my lip on a potato chip!

2. I committed murder in cold blood and enjoyed it. My wife and children were screaming for help and all I could think to do was grab the broom and bash his or her brains in. The bat died quickly and all was remotely okay save for Tristan telling his siblings it was a vampire bat.

3. Instead of giving in to my materialistic and very impulsive urge to buy stuff as it tickles my fancy, I took the initiative to discuss these cravings with my wife who at first shut me down and then realized what I was attempting and reciprocated in the discussion. I still want to buy the item in question and my wife now understands why instead of seeing red when I would have just bought it without talking to her. So happy wife, happy life. Now the hard part, waiting to see if my wife agrees to allow me to buy a copy of World of Warcraft.

ahhh, patience is so overrated.
