In the span of three weeks, my four year old has gone from “I can ski off the chairlift” to “I can ski off the chairlift, I’ll be the first one to the bottom, and I’m gonna take a detour through this slalom course and go off some jumps.”

Like, lots kids’ growth is like this, small steps at first then humongous leaps. But this is bordering on freakish.

Better save up for the inevitable ACL surgeries.

Is Trag a big enough weirdo to become one of those parents-of-an-elite-child-athlete? I'm thinking he's nearly there, but not quite.

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

I had no idea it was the Super Bowl yesterday. 15 years ago that would have been unfathomable.

Psst… referring to them as “Kansas” will make you sound more foreign, thus more interesting or edgy or whatever you’re going for.

I'm just a better person now. I was demonstrating my growth.

Just brought my wife home after her colonoscopy. She's still a little loopy from being under. It is pretty funny.

i was told no driving and no making legal decisions. other than that once i got something to eat i was fine but took advantage of the day and napped with the pooch when we werent outside walking

[BurtReynolds]

I felt fine after I was conscious again, but I have no idea if they explained anything before that or not.
