My computer died. After weeks of milking it my wife demanded I go buy a new one. the hardware is fine it's vista- it blows. So I bought a new Toshiba today at Best Buy for $350. Awesome deal to me, only one left in ATL and you couldn't order it. Happy. 17.4" screen.

Pull it out of the box, uploaded MS Office 2010 and was downloading a couple of things and was about to try it out when it got completely barfed on. So it lasted for a hour or so.

See, my 10 month old son was beside me has been sick and well when I picked him up to move him to dinner he let loose. There was a cough, and then projectile vomiting and I have to say his aiming was impeccable and distance was pretty astounding. Of course he hadn't turned his head towards it he wouldn't have hit it. It was about 5' away. Honestly I don't know how any made it to the computer, my pullover and t-shirt were soaked.

But he soaked the screen and keyboard and every crack and crevice including under the keyboard, the keys finally work now. the computer was dripping and white. it was amazing. Of course my daughter learned a new word from dada when he turned his head and saw the computer.

Now I spent the evening cleaning up the keyboard in between two sick kids falling to pieces and one's potty training becoming a disaster from her illness. of course when she fell on the baby that made all that look like child's play.

I need to yellow slip.

my wife wants to yellow slip first though.

out of commission.
I feel ya brother. I've been on daycare duty the past 3 days. Each morning I look forward to my son having dumped through a diaper, pair of pajamas, all the sheets in his crib. He is literally covered from his chin down. I've done laundry and baths 3 mornings in a row. No end in sight. At least my wife is off tomorrow and she can have a front row seat.

I'm pretty sure my 3 year old daughter has learned more than ONE new word from me this week too.
