    Almost got into a pretty big fight with the wife last week. Usually on Thursdays the kid has Writing Club after school and I'm the one that usually goes and picks her up. So I go and pick her up as usual and she seems kinda mopey and quiet. I ask her if she's okay and she says she's fine but I don't believe her. I tell the wife to ask thinking maybe the kid will open up to her instead of me (maybe it's some teenage girl issue or something she would feel more comfortable talking to her mom with instead) and the wife tells me it started that morning. She (the wife) had already left for work and the kid texted her asking if she could stay home from school that day. Why? Because she was 'sad'. No other explanation, just that she was sad. Well, I guess I wasn't taking it seriously enough for the wife suggested the kid could be depressed and I told the wife WTF does she have to be depressed about? The wife started going on about maybe she'll need counseling for whatever the issue is and blah blah blah. I started to say more but I was only digging a bigger hole, so I just said fine and dropped it. And of course the next day (Friday) after I got home from work and the kid got home from school, she was fine.

    I don't know why everything in today's world needs to be so fucking dramatic anymore.

    She's a teen girl in the midst of puberty. There's no such thing as rationality and there probably won't be until she's like 80 something.

    It's not on the shell. The salmonella's on the inside. If you're gonna use them anyway, fine, but be sure to cook them completely. No runny eggs, nor raw or lightly cooked junk. So don't go and try making Hollandaise sauce or your own salad dressing with them. They have to be cooked completely to kill the pathogen.

    Yep - I'm well in this as my daughter is 15. They're trying to figure out who they are and it's a daunting task. Sometimes as dad all you can do is create opportunities to have them open up and be elated if they actually do.

    I try to, as my wife works Saturdays, hang out with her especially then. There's a fave fish & chip place we go to. She orders Poutine and we figure out life. We don't do this regularly but infrequently - if it was scheduled I know she'd clam up.

    ...and she's a fairly in-touch-with-herself person thankfully. One trick I do is get her to talk about her friends, and then she'll usually then talk about herself. I think the important thing is to remain approachable, and hopefully they come to you...

    I'm not aware of too many things. I know what I know if you know what I mean.

    Nice weather day yesterday, not too long after lunch, the wind went nuts here. Sustained winds between 25 and 35 mph with gusts anywhere between 70 and 100 mph all through the city. Blew semi trucks over, ripped the roof of a building downtown, closed DIA to all flights for several hours, trees and power lines down everywhere.

    And it wiped out an entire section of my fence in my back yard. Ordered all the supplies to fix it last night because I'm sure there will be a run on fencing supplies the nxt few days, there were fences down all over my neighborhood that I saw on the way home yesterday. But there's another $700 I didn't really have to spend. Plus it will be a whole day (at least) fixing that section of fence.

    Over here we'd call that a small breeze
