If you need it: STOP WRITING.

And a milligram of Xanax an hour before any driving trips with sproglets is probably the way to go. *nods*

The kid is driving me nuts, which yes, means he's fine for a teenage boy :-0 He has his own car now, and a job so he can pay for the gas. And he has a girlfriend. Oi.
