It's Complicated

It is so good to have Joe back in town. He was gone all weekend at the junior high's National Science Bowl in Denver, as a coach. His team came in 12th. It is good to have Joe back in town for many reasons:

• Joe comes up with pearls of wisdom during random moments.
• Just today he taught me that daddy pigs do not act like human daddies.
• He can help me with chemistry.
• He is too cool for words.
• Joe takes out the trash and mows the lawn.
• I have never done either.

It is also awesome to have Joe back as he talks to Pop. Sometimes I will go without talking and just absorb the interesting discussions that they have, especially when they are once sided.
