Thu, 13:15: Home cuddling with Iliana who did so well at her appointment. We're feeling very lucky and relieved that her dental work is done. Whew!
Thu, 14:02: Now I can get back to the important things, like deciding which day I want to go to the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet when I'm back home.
Thu, 14:13: Ian is being so tender and gentle and wonderful with his sweet little one and I am all melty and swoony and dear god I love that man.
Thu, 14:14: He also brought me fizzy water while she was sleeping on me and I was trapped and sweaty, so that's even more swoon.
Thu, 14:17: Also we just confirmed that we had the exact amount of $ left in our flex plan account to cover Iliana's dental work - $1500.
Thu, 14:19: Between that and reimbursements for Ian's travel expenses while he was on the National Science Foundation grant panel, what a relief.
Thu, 14:20: We'll actually be able to afford exciting things like food while we're on our much anticipated trip back home!
Thu, 18:22: Recipe name is baked mahi mahi. Method says sautée. I don't care either way because u don't throw pineapple on whatever & call it Hawaiian.
Thu, 18:24: Translation: congratulations on your shitty recipe also being completely ignorant of actual Hawaiian food! Ten dumbass points, you!
Thu, 18:25: Also, there is a delightful difference between Hawaii food and Hawaiian food. Hawaiian food is food of actual traditional Hawaiians.

Thu, 18:28: While delicious and currently a staple of my teenager's diet, SPAM musubi is not actually the traditional foods of my people.
Thu, 18:29: Previous tweets brought to you by making tonight's dinner: poi and mahi mahi and lau lau because I love myself dearly and love food more.
Thu, 20:00: Jonas brought up some race issues in therapy and I was SO THRILLED that his therapist uttered the words "white privilige".
Thu, 20:01: Lol, which I can't spell sheesh.
Thu, 20:02: Anyway, he is becoming more aware of racist comments being made around him and he is having a tough time processing and reacting.
Thu, 20:02: He's told me that friends of him have told him "Come on, dude, you're white," when he tells them he's Pacific Islander.
Thu, 20:05: And we talked about being fair skinned Pacific Islanders, (+ him being more types of PI than me because his dad is Japanese and Okinawan).
Thu, 20:08: So anyway, Jonas has definitely heard the term "white privilege" before, and it was AWESOME to have that seconded by another trusted adult.
Thu, 21:32: This is a terrible house. There is no ice cream. We should move.
