Dear T-is-for-Torsten-but-also-for-Trouble,
First of all, can we have a big WOO HOO for Mama, who is finally caught up with her Torsten posts?
I thought we could. Woo hoo!
Of course, if I asked you to say, “Woo hoo, Mama!” right now, you would in fact say “Woo hoo, Mama!”, which is great, except that you are asleep and I want to keep it that way.
In any event, you are one busy kid these days.
You are obsessed with Mama and Papa’s computers, especially if they are on and you are not supposed to be touching them. Mama has taken to running TuxType for you so that you can at least productively destroy my keyboard (and also, she likes to hear you say, “Tux eat fish? `licious??” while she’s making breakfast), but you are something of a chaos machine these days, and you are just as likely to pitch my mouse (repeatedly) across the room to assess its aerodynamic properties as you are to use it to do something bad to whatever program I am running (and you have figured out that there is a correlation between what you do with the mouse and what happens on the screen, so we are in trouble).

Dearest Torsten,
Unfortunately, this is the second time I’ve had to write this post, because Zoundry Raven, which is now really not on the list of my favorite blog editors, ate all of my changes and wouldn’t let me save.
This means, practically speaking, that I am not going to write it all again – not because I don’t love you, but because I want to be caught up with Torsten posts.
This month has been much less of a change than the last because we’re been getting all settled here, but it’s still been a change.
See, you’ve been spoiled for a while now, having both Papa and Mama with you during the day for a couple of months, and this month, that came to an end as Papa went back to work.
Now, Papa is wildly happy with his job, and that makes everyone happy, but for you and I, there’s been some adjustment period. Mama hasn’t had to be home all day with a toddler with no outside assistance since her own little brother was three, and that was almost thirty years ago, so it doesn’t count as recent experience. The days are sometimes hard to fill, and you are much busier and much more capable than you were before we started with Sherice that it’s just a whole different ball of wax.
Cute, even with a few tears
