Day 637 - Poll Results & New Poll


Last week, I asked whether or not the kids would miss Crazy Grandma and Lazy Grandpa Ichikawa. An overwhelming 76% of you believed the kids were going to miss them. And the remaining votes helped me figure out which ones of you are racist bastards because you think all Asians look alike. I would totally hunt you people down, but it would just be a waste of time because all white people look alike anyways.

When Crazy and Lazy left last week, the kids didn't seem too fazed. They did seem a little confused that there was not a man perpetually lying down on the sofa and wondered why the house was becoming more and more unkept. But when they first saw Crazy and Lazy on the webcam, they were very happy. Emma and Andrew smiled and laughed and jumped up and down. So either they were super happy to see my parents or they were super happy to see they returned to Sacramento and would only have to communicate with them via the internet.

Very rarely does this blog get comments, so when I do get a comment I'm always curious to see what someone wrote. Last week I received a comment from Anonymous who said:

Why do you use such foul language to describe yourself and your wife?

I assume this was in reference to when I called Lisa "my little whore" and "my infested petri dish of STDs." I suppose to someone who just came upon this site, I do admit it might be a little uncomfortable and awkward. But if you've been reading this blog from the beginning and/or know me personally, would you expect anything less from me? And as for myself, there is no way to describe me without using foul language. Ask Lisa! She just called me a jackass!

I admit it. My sense of humor isn't for everyone. And I also admit that I probably cross the line more times than not. But believe it or not, I have edited myself on this blog many, many times because I couldn't believe what I wrote. The bottom line is that this blog is my perspective on being a parent. And unfortunately or not, my perspective is often full of bad jokes, poop humor, and the repeated use of the words "whore" and "dumbass."

So what do you think? Do you think I need to be more careful what I write on this blog? Or should I go the opposite direction and embrace George Carlin's seven dirty words?

It's YOUR blog - write what you want! I often find myself laughing out loud at it.

It just wouldn't seem right without the foul language.
