Ravenous Intake

My friends are generally not available for comment lately, being wrapped up in buying homes and raising kids.  Meanwhile, I grow weary of my ravenous intake of obscure TV and movie stuff.  I get more into reading books on theological and philosophical subjects, yet get ever more picky about which ones I'll read. My nephew is a month old now, and is almost 14 pounds, which is an insane size for a family of modest-sized folk such as we.  I like to hold him to give my sister a break.   My mom and dad are very good at that, but I'm not without skills in delaying how long before the vacuum pump needs to clamp on again.
