Connor was taking all the clothes I had folded out of the basket and draping them around his neck and over his head and I said to Alan, 'Ya know hon, Connor would've made a pretty girl. Looks a lot like Jon Benet. Maybe we should get him a wig and take him on the pageant circuit. At the end of his act he could whip off the wig you know.' 'A drag princess?' 'Yes, exactly!'
I've had a good week or so. Things have been doing pretty well ever since Alan got back. Hell month is over. I figured out a plan which was very exciting. See, we don't want to stay where we are, we don't want rent someplace bigger and more expensive, we can't afford to buy what we want, we don't want to buy what we can afford, so I've been kind of bugged about what to do. An idea occured to me which is kind of all of the above. We could buy the cheap lot we can afford, build a duplex on it and rent half. This would have us in a bigger, nicer place, but not paying rent, and perhaps, due to the rental income, making headway towards what we want. Then I got a horrible canker sore, and now I'm in terrible pain all the time and I don't feel terribly good about anything.
