Home Alone

A short commute..., originally uploaded by radioflyer007.

Yup, wife and kids are away vacationing with the visiting grandparents. That leaves me home alone this week. Someone has to bring home the bacon -- or in my case, make bacon at home?

The house sure is quiet.

I find myself blasting kids' favorite Little Einsteins theme song to fill the silence and spending mucho quality bonding time with TurboTax. The annual ritual this year features a same-employer but multi-state return. Not for the faint hearted.
