  47. </blockquote>
  48. <p>Yes, I would continue to work.</p>
  49. <p>In grad school, A classmate who would precede a lot of things with, “If I won the lottery…”</p>
  50. <p>Finally I got sick of it and said, “Why the hell do you want someone to give you money you didn’t earn?” <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2017/08/25/heres-why-lottery-winners-go-broke.html" title="2017-08-25 Here's why lottery winners go broke—CNBC">I still feel that way</a>.</p>
  51. <p>Also in grad school, the the lottery reached a huge sum (<span title="&quot;1988," rel="tooltip commentary">at the time</span>). My advisor sat down, and as an exercise <span title="&quot;While" rel="tooltip commentary">computed there was a positive ROI to buying a ticket</span>.</p>
  52. <p>Deciding that he it would be a crime against his discipline (theoretical condensed matter physics, which is mostly a lot of statistics) to ignore this fact, he went out of the office, next door to the local gas station to buy a lottery ticket. When he got there, in front of him was a colleague, a statistical physics professor, and soon behind him came another colleague. (I came in there later but it was to get a refill on my 64oz <a href="https://www.johnsonventures.com/bigfoot-food-stores" title="BIGFOOT FOOD STORES—Johnson Ventures, Inc.">Bigfoot</a>).</p>
  53. <p><a href="http://terrychay.com/tag/francis-ree" title="articles on here about Francis Ree">My uncle Francis</a>, whom my son is named after, was also a theoretical condensed matter physicist. Every time we met up at the <a href="https://aps.org" title="APS: Advancing Physics">American Physical Society</a> March meeting, The first thing out of his mouth was when and how we were going to get a ride to the closest riverboat blackjack casinos. There was even a rumor that <a href="https://qz.com/work/1249513/was-a-convention-of-physicists-really-banned-from-las-vegas">we never got invited back to Las Vegas after 1986</a> — all those tables full of statistical physicists refusing alcohol and doing the minimum bet for hours until, suddenly, the shoe was in their favor and they all switched their bets at once, but separately.</p>
  54. <p>Ironically, it looks like Casino memory is just under 40 years. They will learn the error of their ways <a href="https://march.aps.org" title="APS March Meeting March5-10, 2023, Las Vegas, Nevada">next year</a>. If only Francis were alive, I’m sure he’d come out of retirement to attend  and make a few bucks at blackjack with me.</p>

  76. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This morning, Benjamin and I had to get a blood test. I guess this makes us blood brothers.</p>
  77. <p><a data-flickr-embed="true" href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/tychay/51475904633/in/datetaken/" title="Ready to go out"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51475904633_0e9d078196_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" alt="Ready to go out"></a><script async="" src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
  78. <p>It&#8217;s been about 8 years since my last test. Now that Benjamin is one year old, his pediatrician wants him tested for lead as a precaution since housing in San Francisco can date back to when paint and pipes had lead.</p>
  79. <p>When getting him ready for the visit, I got him dressed. He started repeating &#8220;sosh&#8221; when I was putting on his socks. I mistakenly thought the lab could get a sample from his foot, so I skipped putting on his shoes.</p>
  80. <p>He saw me pick up his sandals, and ran at me yelling &#8220;shoosh!&#8221; But when I dropped them in his diaper bag, he wasn&#8217;t having it at all. He associates his &#8220;shoosh&#8221; with going out, thought this meant I was leaving without him, and started crying.</p>
  81. <p>It took all of five seconds, but that was five seconds too long for my son.</p>
  82. <p>…</p>
  83. <p><span id="more-7612"></span></p>
  84. <p>I was three or four years old when, for the first time, my dad offered to cook my brother and me eggs.</p>
  85. <p>&#8220;How would you like your eggs,&#8221; my father asked us?</p>
  86. <p>My brother instantly replied, &#8220;Sunny-side up!&#8221;</p>
  87. <p>After some thought, I shouted, &#8220;Sunny-side down!&#8221;</p>
  88. <p>Dad told me, &#8220;There is no such thing as sunny-side down.&#8221;</p>
  89. <p>&#8220;They do! If there is sunny-side up, there must be sunny-side down!&#8221;</p>
  90. <p>Pulling out a frying pan from the cupboard, &#8220;No, they don&#8217;t. Choose something else,&#8221;</p>
  91. <p>&#8220;I want sunny-side down.&#8221;</p>
  92. <p>&#8220;How about I make you sunny-side up,&#8221; my dad reached into the refrigerator.</p>
  93. <p>I was super pissed to having to eat a sunny-side up egg (which I flipped over and made a mess of). So pissed that to this day that I can recount this story an almost half-century later.</p>
  94. <p>…</p>
  95. <p>The small change of possibly going outside without his shoes was a clear violation of Benjamin&#8217;s sense of order.</p>
  96. <p>It&#8217;s fascinating that he only started being able to repeat words in the last week and it&#8217;s been less than a month since he started stacking my Coke cans instead of just pulling them out of the box and rolling them into random places in the apartment.</p>
  97. <p>Soon everything will need to be done a certain way.</p>
  98. <p>I, however, plan to learn how to cook an egg over-easy before Benjamin gets old enough to ask his daddy for a fried egg.</p>
  99. <p>…</p>
  100. <p>Of course, in hindsight, it was obvious that <span title="I call this my Theranos moment." rel="tooltip commentary">a pin prick wouldn&#8217;t draw enough blood to check his lead levels</span>. Mommy went with him while I waited in the waiting room. I could hear him crying a lot longer than the few seconds this morning between me putting away his shoes and when he, realizing that I just went into the foyer to put on my shoes,  ran into my arms to be picked up.</p>
  101. <p>In the car after we dropped Benjamin off in day care, M— said, &#8220;They took it out of his arm like an adult. They had a lot of trouble finding his artery. The nurse said he did so well, even though he started crying.&#8221;</p>
  102. <p>&#8220;Yeah, I bet other babies…&#8221;</p>
  103. <p>&#8220;…loose their shit,&#8221; she finished laughing! &#8220;Yeah, it started when the nurse pulled his arm and started tapping on it. Benjamin was like,  &#8216;I don&#8217;t know what this is, but I know I&#8217;m not going to like it.'&#8221;</p>
  104. <p>Like father, like son.</p>

  221. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By the afternoon, with the <a href="https://abc7news.com/smoke-forecast-bay-area-in-sf-today-air-pollution-wildfire/6377953/" title="Bay Area air quality worst in the world as wildfires rage in all but one county—Bay Area ABC 7 News">air quality getting a little better</a>, M— was beyond tired, so Benjamin took took me in his ride,  <a href="https://www.chiccousa.com/shop-our-products/strollers/frame/keyfit-caddy-frame-stroller/06079062950070.html" title="KeyFit Caddy Frame Stroller—Chicco">a Chicco KeyFit 30 Caddy</a>, &#8220;cruisin&#8217; for some chicks&#8221; (his words, of course, not mine). We were going stir-crazy at home anyway.</p>
  222. <p>Because the warm weather, he wanted to just buckle up and jet and show his rockin&#8217; bod he and mommy have been working on for the last 10 months, but M— thought the seat restraints would chafe his new baby skin and selected a dinosaur shirt from Auntie Nora that all the honey babies in his life (Mommy) thought made him look cute. While it did cover up his awesome guns, he finally relented, and we were off to give M— some much needed rest for a couple hours</p>

  224. <p>We walked through the park, and, on the way back, he thought mommy would like some food to keep her milk all nice and yummy so we picked up some egg bread, spam musubi, and <a href="https://www.sfdreamers.com" title="Dreamers' Kitchen">Garlic Noodle w/Pan Seared Prawn</a> on the trip home. He even survived his first diaper change in the field (though, mommy was right: I should have packed more wipes and diapers in the Pronto Changing Station).</p>
  225. <p>Unfortunately, other than a few comments about how cute he was, he didn&#8217;t get to pick up any chicks. I thought it meant I failed as a wingman, but Benjamin blames the &#8216;rona.</p>

  276. <p>I had to announce my relief to the company.</p>
  277. <blockquote><p>
  278.  Me: Got my background check back. Relieved to find out I’m not a sex offender anywhere.</p>
  279. <p>  J—: im happy for you</p>
  280. <p>  Me: I&#8217;m relieved too! Forwarded it to M—. She mentioned she knows the CEO of Checkr from a mobile startup, and then said, without skipping a beat, &#8220;Okay, baby, we can keep daddy around now that we know he checks out.&#8221;
  281. </p></blockquote>
  282. <p>(This is probably revenge for all the times I look at my son and declare to M—, &#8220;I guess I think we&#8217;ll keep him.&#8221;)</p>

  305. <p>I do it right after I pop open the wet wipes and ready a fresh diaper, but before I start changing. M— always laughs when she sees the air punches.</p>
  306. <p>If I haven&#8217;t been peed on and he isn&#8217;t crying by the end of it, I totally do the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocky_Steps" title="Rocky Steps—Wikipedia">top top-of-the-Philadelphia-Museum-of-Art-steps</a> thing.</p>
  307. <p>Otherwise, I&#8217;m cuddling and comforting him. I totally relate to the unfunness of having cold water touch your pee pee area.</p>
