To absolutely no one’s surprise this is coming out on a Wednesday, not a Monday.
Welcome to Chucktown
An update on the one and only Charles Amos Large:
Charlie went to the dentist yesterday and was a weirdly excellent patient. If anything, his parents got in trouble for not brushing thoroughly enough. I have to guess that it was helpful to have Spider-Man literally playing on the ceiling TV and Bluey on his dental technician’s hat. He left the dentist with a sugar-free sucker, a balloon, stickers, Spider-Man toothbrush, a “green lantern” ring, a LIGHT UP FIDGET SPINNER SLAP BRACELET I cannot make this stuff up. If my dentist gave me this many treasures I might be a better patient, too.
Charlie somehow also fell asleep on the way home from Tennessee while David and I scream-sang Pink Pony Club to Jane—it was the only thing that could get her to stop crying in Atlanta traffic?

An update on Jane Zelie:
Jane had a random bout of cellulitis on one of her tiny toes and was clearly totally unbothered. She’s on the pink juice meds now which she is not big on but will tolerate as long as it is *swiftly* followed by a pacifier.
Jane tried the pool with her feet and wasn’t impressed.
Book Talk
I listened to this book this week and tbh the reviews on goodreads were better than the book. BIG LOLS.
Charlie’s Halloween Costume Update
As of today, July 17th, Charlie wants to be Captain America for Halloween. But he did clarify “and I want a shield. But don’t make it [the costume] too big for me.”
TikTok Genre That I Can’t Scroll Past RN
Presley. Presley is an autistic gal with truly the best family. I could watch her and her family sing about being purple all day. Her fav color is purple and…many of the videos revolve around that. They’re the most wholesome.
Things Penny Barked At This week
THE CAT. My parents’ neighbors’ dog. Anything my parents’ dogs barked at.
Meow’s World
Hey guess what we have a cat! Did you know?? She’s called Meow. This week I finally invested in a de-matting/de-shedding brush and I acquired a second cat in a matter of minutes! Lucky me!
Stupid News
King Charles III gave a royal title to a…golden goat. It’s now called the “Royal Golden Guernsey Goat”. Couldn’t he spend less time in goats and more time being less of a douche to his son and daughter-in-law?
To be fair tho this is my ideal hair color.
My Hyperfixation Songs RN
While we did sing Pink Pony Club for an hour on the drive home to Atlanta this weekend, I’ve been v into Red Wine Supernova. Can’t get over “I got a California king..okay maybe it’s a twin bed! And some roommates!”
Also very into this dumb TikTok song. Or the first half of it. The second half is even dumber. For whatever reason it makes me hate working out less.
Davey’s Corner
Things I have heard when out with Jane alone:
“Don’t make one of these until you are married” Grandma talking to her 7 year old grandson.
“Every time I see a baby with their dad I get baby fever then I take a Tylenol and I’m good.” Ma’am I’m just trying to pick out the perfect avocado.
“We can do anything women can do!” Literally no we can’t.
TikTok You’re Not Allowed To Skip!!!
Hello there everyone I’m going to take you to school for a moment and share the TikTok that has made me laugh too many times. Bonus! It’s also educational!

Had to do a two hour blood test at the hospital the other day so I took my quilt to work on. An hour into the test a man walks over and sits next to me with his wife…he was crocheting a dinosaur. Craft corner at the doctor’s office!

Davey’s Corner made me lol. Always here for the large family updates!
