That's cool, ita. Random, but cool.

Dude, he's a PS kinda guy. Of course he's sporting bling now that he can afford as much as he wants.

Is very late, and am just finishing up writing something, but ita? I saw love for your Colin on my friendslist, and should they not own up to it to you at my suggestion, am willing to copy and paste teh love for Colin.

Bed now. Grumpy 'morrow.

The Buffy beforehand? Very damned random.

It's a Paley festival thing. They show a clip from an older show that the newer show is considered a successor to. Apparently last year, they showed Soap at the Arrested Development screening.

Gods, I loved Soap. I think abducted by aliens Bert was my favorite arc. Well, that and Chester's amnesia. "I'm Cheddar Plate!" And Joey's "girlfriend" and the mother of his kid is now Phoebe's boss on Charmed.

...how's that for random?

I so wished I could go to the Paley festival. There's a discount if you go to an LA university, too. Or so I was told. Oh well.

So catching up on Natter has made me add the following to my to do list:

• Develop stronger opinions on home schooling.
  
• Find more pictures of kitties in baskets.
  
• Be funnier.

That's it. I have simple needs, apparently.

I live on board time.

I am awake.

I am awake because Annabel has a cold, and she awoke sniffly and mildly fussy at 1:00. Because DH has to go into work earlier than normal tomorrow, this is solely my problem. So I rocked her for an hour and a half. She kept nearly dropping off and waking again, all squirmy. So I thought, "Maybe she's sleepy but uncomfortable. Maybe she'll fall asleep in a few minutes if I put her back in the crib." So I tried it. And for five minutes I thought it had worked. But then she woke up and started making noises. Which woke DH.

So I brought her back in here, put her in the playpen next to the computer, and came here. Because clearly the rocking wasn't getting us anywhere. I've more or less resigned myself to a sleepless night, but I'm so tired I'm sitting here crying.

She's now standing up in her playpen making cute noises!

How is she not tired? How? She usually sleeps from 9:00 p.m. till 7:00 or 8:00 a.m. And how am I going to function tomorrow on no sleep at all when I already feel near my breaking point?

Susan, I know this is in no way equivalent, but my dogs got me up a half an hour ago and now I'm awake and really REALLY don't want to be. Want to sleep. So tired.

I hope you get some rest or can manage a nap later. I'm sorry about the sleepless night; those aren't fun.

I don't think I've pulled a true all-nighter since college. Even when Annabel was a wee newbie and we were having the feeding problems, I got naps here and there each night.

(And yes, this is a true all-nighter because I was stupid and went to bed at 1:00 a.m. I was finishing up a critique I'd promised a friend, and I thought I'd get to sleep in, since DH is taking first shower, or if Annabel woke up on the early end of her normal pattern, at least I'd have 6 hours of sleep. I can function on 6 hours. But I can't function on this.)
