How big is she, Aimée? She looks very long.

At last check up 2 weeks ago, she was 21.5 inches. I think she's a little longer now.

Also, pensive. Very "One second, mater. I'm thinking."

Totally. She's very serious.

And you? You look in love.

I am Completely and utterly.

I am tickled beyond the telling of it that "wedged between two pillows" counts as "posing."

Well, it's mommy posing her. Hush you.

Not quite the hand-holding I was looking for, but instead a confirmation of my fears.

SORRY! Honestly, it will be OK. And you don't have to make it as hard as I did: I moved someplace I'd never lived before, with no job, and no friends. Hey, that had worked out really well four years earlier....

Ooops, sorry, Ali. It is as hard as it seems, but you can still do it. There are decent apartments in OK neighborhoods that are affordable, and you will own that mixer some day.

Wow, this board is moving super fast. Thanks, Jesse! Again, the pink mixed cookies are in the future mail.

I got this one -- it's not difficult at all. Get a job. Don't obsess over it being a career -- just get a job. And don't try to come out of the gate at full speed.

That's the plan. I'm just having slight difficulties over finding a job at all, so that I can afford an apartment, because I will be kicked out of my own in May, before I have a chance to really start working full time. I'm sure it'll work out, but it's just going to be tricky.

He's so the bigger geek.

He is. But Ryan Reynolds is pretty.

I have too many co-workers. Almost as many as I have cousins.

That's a lot of co-workers.

This from a guy who's downloading every episode of Two Guys and A Girl for the Ryan Reynoldsy goodness.

Hey, I love that show, after discovering it being rerun on WE fifty thousand times. There is much goodness besides the Ryan Reynoldsy variety.

Baby!!! Baby in tiara!!!!

also

Yay Hil!!

No, I'm sorry. That came off harsher (in the sense that, it really didn't bother me as much as my reaction made it seem) than necessary, due to crazy cross-posting.

I don't remember the much. I mean, it's pleasant enough, but (Plei! back me up!) Dr. Berg is the only thing that made it worth me tuning in.

And he's just in it for the Ryan -- he agrees that the show's not good.

That's a lot of co-workers.

I'm saying.

Did you get the photo I e-mailed?

Oh, and Ali, where are you looking for a job?

Baby cute!

So, let's say I had a right triangle, with angles of 60 and 30 degrees, and the side between the right angle and the 30 degree angle has a length of 4. How long is the side between the right angle and the 60-degree angle? Please show your work.

Did you get the photo I e-mailed?

Yes! Thank you so much! Actually, replying to your email was on my to-do list. And I wanted to send one to your sister, too. That was awesome. Every single person sitting at the table was from a different country, and there were six of us, and the Irish girl had a story about a big gay uncle Walter, or something like that, which reminded M. of a relative of yours that I was supposed to ask about, but I no longer remember what I was going to ask. Darn it. Want to share a relative story, anyway?
