Thanks guys - as problems go, mine are not on the level with, say, some guy living in my house for 5 months while I'm overseas. But, you know, family. Can't live with 'em, can't kill 'em.
Nonian, we've adopted govie-speak and call the kid FNU (first name unknown) most of the time. I know I've wailed about this here before, but choosing a name seems like one of the biggest responsibilities possible!
I did dream a couple weeks ago that we'd named the sprog Mortimer Firefox, but I've sworn to not name my child anything I'd name a D&D character.
(((Raquel))) Oh, that's so tough. I'm right now restraining myself from e-mailing my cousin in Nea Kifissia; he'd send his mother straight over to fuss over you, rub your feet and shoulders, make you a big steaming pot of something nourishing and tell you that you're having exactly the right baby for you. Because
that's
how people should be treating you. I am so sorry.
P-C, "The Team" is also known as Amway, if that clears things up. That link breaks it down, but yeah, pyramid-y is a good summary. It's legal, but icky. And it's not a way to make big bucks, either:
In the United States, the Federal Trade Commission requires Amway to label its products with the message that 54% of Amway recruits make nothing and the rest earn on average $65 a month.
(And I owe you email. Soon! Ish...)

Oh, thank goodness I'm not the only one. I've been a little freaked out about finding the right name. It's our first "parenting decision" and it seems huge. I don't want to screw it up.
We had our puppy for about 3 days and couldn't think of a name. I was feeling like the worst dog-owner ever. Then, as I was falling asleep, "Toby" popped into my head and we knew that was the right name. I'm hoping the same thing happens here, although I'd prefer it be before she's born.
Mortimer Firefox
Hee. Love it. You know that one's going to stick, don't you?
Mortimer Firefox
Better than Harold Internet Explorer.
Oh - and a quick thanks to all those who suggested books for me a few weeks ago. Joe finally received the first batch today. He was happy to have them and excited to start reading/recording them.
There is so much fog here I can't see the mall across the parking lot. Damn, this air needs to get cleaned out. All the stinks are hanging around, and it's getting hard to breathe.
I'm now naming that little fox on the Firefox icon Mortimer Firefox. (Unless he already has a name?)
Or maybe it's sales, involving you recruiting more people, which I guess would make it a pyramid scheme.
Turn 2; the rest are food.
