Oh, and what does it say about me as a do-it-all working-stiff mom that his six-month well-baby appointment was on his seven-month birthday?

Obviously, Gmail has some sort of language bot that lets it know which ads to foist. But I can't imagine which of my emails would prompt it to shill to me “How To Kiss A Girl – www.DavidDeAngelo.com – Learn How To Kiss A Girl In A Way That Makes Her Melt In Your Arms”.

On Twitter

Some facts about Twitter:

Twitter users don't tweet, they twit.

As such, Twitter users are twits.

Twitter breeds twit wit.

That should be its motto: Twit wit Twitter.

“Twit wit wit Twitter” works, too.

“Like my new haircut?” I asked Monstro.

“When'd you get your haircut?”

“Last night, when you were asleep.”

“Oh,” he said. “Did I get a haircut, too?”

“No.”

“Just wondering,” he said.
