I think that the Moms got eliminated after the first hour of the finale last season, so it was three teams left for the last hour.

OK, did anyone else get the schmoopy valentines day KY ad? Because that just freaked me out. But I may have issues. I have no issues with sex-related ads on tv, generally. Hey, I find sex much less offensive than violence. But, but, but.... I have Issues. (I know where my parents keep theirs. I wish I didn't. I know they have sex. That's ok. The details are not.)

Also, I was doing back exercises and I think I did something wrong. Because now at certain normal, everyday actions, it feels like someone has kicked me in both kidneys. My body is stupid. Need to get more exercise.

I just recalled I get to wrangle a 10 month old tomorrow while her mom has meetings. Which, yay! Nice break from the workday. But boo, will be in the kidneyicking positions a lot. May this go away.

TAR: The second to last ep is always nonelimination. Which begs the question, whose brilliant idea was it to put a Yield in it, and have they been fired?

Hayden is still reminding me so much of myself it's scary. (Doubly so when I remember that everyone on the internet except me hates her. But on the plus side, I think she and Aaron will probably win.)

Sarameg--ice it. It's no fun while you're doing it, but you'll thank me tomorrow.

I wearing 2 layers of clothes including wool. I'm not so sure about the ice. But I'll probably try that anyway.

whiiiiine

sarameg -- I also recommend ibuprofen, 400 or 600 mg, to deal with any inflammation. Should help.

And when the parents disagree on this variable--much painful discussing ensues. I'm a mouth-kisser, DH is not. We're working on a workable agreeement that doesn't squick him or put Owen in therapy.

Ooof, that's tough. Both EM and I kiss Emmett on the mouth. Admittedly, it doesn't happen all that often anymore (usually when I'm putting him to bed and he's feeling especially affectionate). But when he was a babe, I kissed him all over on a regular basis. His infant idea of a kiss was to grab your head very tight and press his open gummy mouth against your cheek with tremendous ferocity. Not all kisses are sexualized.

It's COLD!

Anyway, I figure I'll start a lot of rumors at work tomorrow when people think K is mine. Hell, for some reason (ok, one misinformed bigmouth) a good bunch of people think I'm married.

But I'm looking forward to it. 1) K likes me, and she's really particular and 2) an hour notworking! With cute baby! Yay for important meetings and husbands on high security projects they can't work on with their resident alien wives present! Or something.

EXACTLY my thinking. DH has a germ thing. He gets it from his mother and his maternal grandmother (who was Howard Hughes germ phobic). We polled our friends and the only one who agreed with him has a very cold, distant relationship with her parents. I'm just a kisser. I'll restrict my affection to age-appropriate demonstrations as O gets older, but I'm not going to kill myself to hold back to what feels completely natural to me while he's little. I'll lose that soon enough without freaking myself or him out trying to control someone else's intimacy issues.

Thing is, DH is very affectionate with me and the baby. He just thinks mouth kissing should be restricted to sexual partners. *shrug*
