Aww, cutie Abe!

Annabel has a cold. Last night she woke herself up three times with coughing. She fell straight back to sleep if I found her pacifier, put it in her mouth, and said, "Sh, it's OK, it's still night." Unfortunately, I'm a bit slower on the getting back to sleep thing, and ended up awake for good after she woke up briefly at 5:45.

Aimée! Em's mom! How are you and your family?

I'm playing online instead of working as a way of early marking of the Israeli Independence Day (which is actually on Thursday). The semester is crazy and I'm way behind on pretty much each and every thing I need to do.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

NILLY! You're still here. I did, and the answer is sure! Go ahead.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Wow, she's getting up there. Has she asked to borrow the car yet?

Yes, so we bought her a walker.

Aimée! Em's mom! How are you and your family?

We are all doing well, thank you.

Does anyone here know how I'd go about having both clickable hyperlinks and checkable boxes on a document in Word 2002? I had it set up as a form with checkboxes and protected, but then I realized that it wouldn't let me click on the URLs (or rather it let me click on them but it didn't do anything). So then I unprotected it, but now the checkboxes won't work. And I ain't got the patience for it. I'm a couple steps away from bashing something. Probably my head against the desk, but you never know. Clearly Pez are called for.

Probably because the class is heavily pointed towards the "of Science" part of "History and Philosophy of Science". Part of the point of the class is to show how the philosophers of science were out of touch with the general philosophy going on around them.

So true! I know that Kuhn hated the fact that Foucalt and Rorty built chunks of their philosophies on his ideas. He was aesthetically opposed to each of their takes on postmodern relativism, but philosophy is like any art: you can't control what people do with it once it's out there. Even John Locke, good Puritan that he was, was horrified that godless atheists and scientists took hold of his notion that machines with microscopic and telescopic ability could de-mystify nature because he couldn't stand the idea of a world in which God was not the ultimate authority about the composition of matter.

Nice to see you slacking intently, Nilly. You're not around enough.

My sister's e-mail sig used to be:

Q: And what's next for you?
Mos Def: Tomorrow, god willing.

She's now changed it to:

Q: And what's next for you?
Mos Def: Tomorrow, god willing.

Q: And what's next for you?
ita: Mos Def tomorrow, god willing.

Because of one subconscious-fueled little misread on my part.

Aw! It's Nilly!

Kat, you mean RZ and JG?

Yep.

HELLO. EASY HIKE, REMEMBER?

It wasn't hard! I'm just out of shape.

Very wise!

Annabel has a cold.

My sympathies to both of y'all.
