so i used my iPhone to take a photo of my USPS receipt in hopes of maybe copying the text of the tracking number out of it. when i tapped on the photo i got a prompt to “track shipment.” surprised, delighted and impressed. technology hasn’t done that to me in a while.

so i almost preferred the sinus infection vs. the flu that we got from my youngest. seems like my wife and youngest son are on the mend though, my older son and i are in the worst part of it.
(sorry - this is all my news.)

shout out to all the other parents playing Animal Crossing with their kids today, since that’s the most ‘traditional’ Easter thing we’ve done for the past couple years.

having a dog named “DJ” means you shout a lot of things that would be really interesting DJ names. examples:
“DJ Stop It!”
“DJ Don’t Chew On The Cat!”
and my favorite:
“DJ What Are You Eating??!?!”

both kids sick (with different symptoms) so it’s home-from-school and tests for everyone in the morning! i know i can’t shelter them from everything forever. but maybe we kept this at bay for more than two years.
