pssst, Kristin -- I think this is a boy Mallory. Although I was a little confused myself, until I got to the eleven toes. Boys are weird.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh...Ummm...going back to edit now. Thanks!
(which makes my tag request even more relevant)
He was totally being nice. And he tried to pick a name that is big enough for my sieve to recognize (I only remember faces, scary visual place that my brain is. I probably only know to connect her name to her face thanks to ita). I guess it was the "world colliding" thing in work, that caught me by such surprise.
Gronklies, all!
Congrats to Raquel and her DH!
Did I mention the gronklies? I spent the weekend veering in the direction of my natural sleep patterns, so this getting up for Monday morning is just not clicking very well. I am in the office, with caffeine, but I've already been boggling at my voicemail.
I’m drinking decaf coffee. I’ve begrudgingly accepted that I cannot have caffeine in my life. The first few months I didn’t drink coffee at all and stuck to various decaf herbal teas for my hot beverage. My love for coffee was too great to jump right to decaf without a buffer period. Yesterday I bought the decaf. It tastes yummy. A few times I have had a cup of decaf in restaurants, but none at home until today. Oddly it makes me feel like a little old lady to order decaf in a restaurant.
Laura, if it's OK to ask, why are you giving up on coffee?
The best thing in coffee, IMHO, is its smell.
Congrats, Raquel and DH and Mallory James!
What Fred Said. And, Nilly, wrod.
Coffee is not helping with my morning stupid.
The real tragedy is that it doesn't make other people seem less stupid either.
But I am at work without the burden of the Handbook hanging over my head. There might even be birdies chirping outside.

It breaks my heart because I am big with the coffee love, but it does evil things to my body. The caffeine at any rate. I'm testing the decaf. It causes me problems on 2 fronts. Major insomnia. If I have a diet coke at lunch I won't be able to sleep that evening. Also, I was getting stabbing pains in my temples and they magically disappeared when I stopped the caffeine. Alas, they come back if I stray. It is sad making.
edit to note that on the plus side I am sleeping like a log and wake up early and alert. This is a new treat.
