Inching Along

This week my daughter turned seventeen. I’m not sure 1) how she can be seventeen already and 2) exactly how she’s managed to survive this long. But she got cake and ice cream and the first three games of Mass Effect, so I expect I’ll have some relative peace for a while. That’s excellent, because
