3 says confused “kitty just running away” as he chases her with a vacuum cleaner

I had a long complicated dream that ended with me getting a congratulatory hug from Nicholas Cage so that was pretty awesome

Going to test drive, 11 asked what I was getting. I said Lamborghini. He gasped with excitement. I said maybe two. He shared the good news A min later 7 comes, takes my hand in her’s, looks me in my eyes. “Dad, we don’t need 2 Lamborghinis. We need that money for food & college”

Seedless watermelons does not get enough recognition as a modern technological marvel

7: "I have a secret to tell you" 18 smiles and leans in 7 whispers in her ear 18 frowns 18: "Hey, 7 just said she's cooler than me" 7 shakes her head 7: "You're really bad at keeping a secret"

11 explaining how lazy 16 is: “When I fart on you, you’re too lazy to even run away” I’m not sure who this reflects worst on. Probably me

7: “Handball is the opposite of football” I don’t even know what to say about that #olympics

@sssobel Yup. It was raining for move in

@tadizi It's raining here, so scout camp memories are appropriate.

I love the olympics, even the sports that seem like they should be on The Ocho

@sssobel That was awesome. I saw the beginning of that this morning but missed the end. Was taking my son to scout camp if that brings back any memories

@tadizi Another good Olympic moment today: youtu.be/GjSCT97GSsA

@sssobel Watching that too. I remember learning triple jump in elementary school gym class. Maybe I should have stuck with it

@tadizi Just watched a woman (Venezuela) break a 26-year-old world record on the triple jump. What a weird discipline. The record was set 2 months before she was born.

@sssobel Yes. This! I can be bored by golf the rest of the year if I really want to. Give my some fencing or judo or handball. I’ll even take shooting!

@tadizi Agreed. Except golf. When golf came on last night, I said "Oh no you're not. You're not making me watch golf!" And I switched to watching monster-sized women throwing hammer.

13: "You're so immature." 7: "Of course I'm immature, I'm seven years old!" She's got a point

@sssobel Learning things the hard way is my specialty

@tadizi Thanks for taking one for the team.

Marriage advice: If your wife says “At least if wrong I admit it” The proper response is apparently not “If I was ever wrong, I would admit it too” I’ll keep you posted if I ever figure out what the right response is

@melonakos Taking my boys camping this weekend too. Have a good trip!

The reality of road-tripping with a Tesla and kids. My family of 8 has 3 vehicles to get us to a weekend of camping 3 hours away. Wish us luck and fair weather ☀️ 🌝 ✨

My homemade Fathers Day piCARD

@humphinator Julie had to post this

@tadizi this seems close though

Apparently my office address is listed as a vaccine clinic and a line is forming outside

@humphinator Nothing will top the dumpster

@tadizi better or worse than when the dumpster turned into a landmark?

@CrystalNFunk Yeah. Someone stopped by this afternoon for a vaccine and we’re like “that’s weird” then this evening a line formed outside and that’s how we found out

@tadizi Oh wow. 🤣
