Are ferrets legal in CA these days? I vaguely remember hearing they weren't at some point.
Miss Brown looks like my old cat, Noodle. Who was a complete princess. I love those bat ears.
I have laundered and shopped for my parents' visit. I also got a set of those modal sheets in deep purple. (not the stretchy kind) They are pretty. And going to match so well with my duvet & rug. Which are deep crimson. Well, they go ok, if the theme is rich jewel tones. Which it should be. The sensical choice would have been the rich gold ones but....the purple was so pretty.
Still have to wash those, the duvet, the futon thing, get the car washed, hit goodwill, clean the hell out of the apartment and prep some meals. And I'm going out tonight, so I'm going to be pooped tomorrow. Ah well.
Congratulations, Stephanie! And welcome to the world, Elizabeth!
Congrats, Stephanie! Welcome, Ellie!
Snerk. I'm looking at the Class Matters graphics and stuff on the NY Times site, and from one of those graphs, it looks like I've chosen to get my Ph. D. in one of the only fields where people with Bachelor degrees tend to earn more than people with more advanced degrees. I'd kind of known that, but hadn't actually seen it broken down like that before.
t edit: well, sort of. Looking at it some more, it's a little more complicated than that.
Ellie! You rocket baby! Good job!
Oh my goodness! Welcome, Ellie, you crazy little speed demon! And much joy in a job well done, Stephanie, and may your DH arrive soon and safe to rejoin his family.
Welcome, Ellie, and congratulations Stephanie and DH.
Welcome to the world, Ellie. What a wonderful surprise you'll be for your dad when he gets home. Congrats to Stephanie and DH.
