I woke up to the touch of little hands tucking her blankie around my shoulders.
She was deeply asleep, but laughing her head off.
DED FROM TEH CUTE!
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

As if this one wasn't cute enough, imagine her bouncing rhythmically and making noises just to hear the sound of her own voice, while kneeling like that.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Cute cute Emaline and family pictures! ADORable Annabel stories. StY used to talk his head off in his sleep, and I always wondered what he was dreaming. The blankie-tucking is just aww-making, though. Sweet girl!
Yay for the good Wally report, bt. Things just seem to keep improving, as they should.
There was more. I forgot. Two popsicles and a bottle of water is a good enough supper, right? I think I'll try sleeping now.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

I just told my Microsoft Money budget about the pay cut. It sent me a Howler.
What's this Howler thing?
She'd wanted to know an interesting thing about me, so I told her that if she's on time then I'll tell her one. If she's ten minutes late I'll tell her three, and if she's later than that she won't be able to get me to shut up.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
What's this Howler thing
It's from Harry Potter 2. It's an angry letter, literally. It screams at you, and steams, and stuff.

move out and draw fire
Wally got game!
OK, we need to plan our R&R. The choices are Washington DC (of course), England, Germany, Italy, or East Coast Canada. Votes?
I've pretty much ruled out Italy and DC. I've never really been to Germany and have never been to Canada. Given that we'll be travelling with a 6-month-old, any of these places better than any other?

You misspelled San Francisco.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I think I'll vote England. I would've voted Germany (and still think it's a great choice), but if you have a baby in tow you don't want to worry about language barriers. (I suspect they wouldn't be much of a problem even in Germany, but I have to choose between them somehow.)

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
This afternoon I took Annabel to the mall to escape the hot house. She was decidedly un-cute and angry when it was time to go home, because that meant leaving the little play area they have for toddlers and preschoolers. Since she was still a crank when we got in the car, I put in the West Side Story soundtrack rather than leaving the radio on NPR. I had to tune out the opening bit of "Tonight" as I was dealing with a knot of traffic. I'm a big sappy sap over that song, so I decided to start the track over. When I hit the track button and it went silent for a few seconds, I heard this loud "Uh!" of protest from the back seat. Which same noise was repeated every time a song ended until the next one started.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Oh, Susan, what a darling girl you have. Obviously brilliant as well.
Em is getting so big! She's tall and getting toddlerish. I don't know where the time went.
Yay for the Wally-report!
Raq, I think Canada is quite neat if you've never been there. You could visit the Haligonistas.
Beverly, I think that's a perfectly cromulent dinner. Sweet dreams.
I played too much earlier today and had to get some work done before I could sleep. Time for me to go night-night.
