Dear Cat,

I am definitely not together today. The house was in okay shape when I woke up, but then everything--and by "everything" I mean watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer on Hulu, writing a blog post, wrestling with the boys, stapling paint samples to my green wall, and fretting over the meaninglessness of life--seemed more important than staying on top of things or, you know, changing out of my pajamas. Now the house is a wreck, I'm still in my pajamas, and everyone's eyes are just a little too wide and buggy.

Know what though? I've been making so much progress. Overall, the house is cleaner than it's been in a long time, and I'm doing so many more creative, fun, and interesting things. I guess today is the one step back they talk about in the two steps forward, one step back process.

Better log off and start stepping forward.
