Steve: I need to eat healthier. Make healthier foods for me! I'm going to die!! My cholesterol!
Me: Fine. I'm on it.
[a few days later]
Steve: What is this?
Me: It's a quinoa salad.
Steve: [poking at it] What's in it?
Me: Quinoa, arugula, strawberries, and feta - lightly dressed with a citrus vinaigrette.
Steve: Oh.
Me: Do you like it?
Steve: I mean...it's food.
Me: You said you wanted to eat healthier!!!
Steve: I guess. I didn't mean QUINOA!
So, basically, Steve is the worst. Our animals are also ridiculous. I went into the bedroom to discover that Steve thought Flip was cold and snuggled him up.
Then, after Flip goes to bed, Schroeder comes and and stalks all around being weird. Here he is napping on the brick fireplace. That can't be comfortable!
Wm is having a delightful summer break so far, but he's eating, basically, no foods while he's alone. Yesterday, he remembered to eat breakfast at 10am and hadn't eaten lunch at all when I got home from work. He's been hanging out with his neighbor friend and I force him to take a walk with me every afternoon, so he's getting out. Now if I could just get him to EAT. He heads to COSI camp the week after next!
We did set up our patio a bit. We had dinner out there the other day and it was GLORIOUS.
I painted our bathroom the other day. Afterwards, Steve made the mistake of installing new fancy light switches and they looked so awesome, I've been badgering him to do all of them. It's amazing what a difference something small like that makes! The bathroom also looks much better with its new paint! I really need to paint the entire house and woodwork...blerg.
Me: Fine. I'm on it.

At least it's FRIIIIIIIIIDAY!! And we leave for vacation in just a couple weeks! So excited!!
OH. Also, Steve has been keeping secrets, apparently! We were talking to an old neighbor who told us her car had gotten tossed the night before and how that happens to her at least a couple times a year. After we left, I told Steve how glad I was that we hadn't lived in that part of Clintonville since our cars had never been broken into (just the GD house!) Steve goes, "Oh - both our cars got tossed more than once. I just never told you cause you'd freak out." YEAH. Also, he just let slip that he saw a centipede in the basement that he wasn't telling me about. What other secrets is that dude keeping?!? Sadly...it's probably maintaining my sanity. Because now all I think about are centipedes. But, better centipedes than meth heads rifling through my car, I guess!
