But I thought NAFDA only covered things after they aired. So is the ultrasound monitor considered a preview or are we waiting for a literal air-breathing baby?

Yes, I will switch to decaf now.

Well, since fetuses get their oxygen through the umbilical cord, I guess you could say that the wee Cashlet is already getting aired on cable....

Oh, my all time hated song has got to be "Butterfly Kisses".

bing bing bing! We have a winnah!

Nick and Deb geeking out over guitars was one of the highlights of the Cleveland F2F this past spring.

Yes, indeed.

Annabel took a 2 1/2 hour nap and woke up rash-free. Good baby!

Just checked the mail and didn't get two important bits of locally sent mail that the responsible parties swore they'd mail last week.

It's Wednesday, dammit. Even with the holiday, anything in the metro Seattle area that was mailed by Saturday should be here now.

t shakes fist at people who owe Susan money and contest results

we know you were really hoping for a camel baby.

Camel Babies are very hard to change.

Awww... baby camel...

I have camel beads from New Orleans.

I love that picture of Nick and Deb. I should try to bring him to the next F2F. He could meet Nic and Beth's DH too.

It's after 7. Cash is taunting us.

ION, I made chicken tortilla soup for dinner. I should have gotten my recipe back from vw, though. I don't think it came out as good this time. Proof will be in the eating, I guess, which will happen momentarily.

edit: You can't take the bombast from me.

Yeah. I love the fact that Jim Steinman's idea of a touching ballad is The Anvil Chorus. ("I! [clang] WOULD! [clang] DO! [clang] ANYTHING! [clang] FOR! [clang] LOOOOOOOVE!!!!!! [rain of metal]") I may be enjoying it ironically, but I cannot promise this.

I will also sing along with We Built This City, and when they sing "Marconi plays the mamba", I will wonder to myself whether they mean black or green. I also love Jessica Simpson's I Want To Love You Forever, but I'm pretty sure that I'm getting something different out of it than what Ms Simpson thinks she put in. Incidentally, I would support Mya changing "My Love Is Like Wo" to "My Love Is, Like, Whatever".

You know what also works? Speed.

I hear death makes those unsightly pounds just melt away.

And are we including holiday songs? Because, if so, then the award of worst song of all time (holiday and non-holiday, inclusive) goes to Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer. Even the dogs barking Jingle Bells is better than that. Hell, even that song from Titanic is better than that.

I would mention "800 Pound Jesus", but any song that has me rolling around on the floor in convulsions by the end of the video clip has something going for it.

The worst of country can be fun though, where some songs are just bad and boring. I did refrain from posting anything by Billy Ray Cyrus. I think someone should order a nice funeral arrangement for me, based on that, alone.

Ah yes. "But don't you tell my liver, it never would forgive her. It might blow up and circumcise this man."

Or "Having my baby."

AGE OF CONSENT! AGE OF CONSENT!!

Cindy, surely someone has done a cover of "Ben"? You could dig that up.

I have an acoustic cover of "Ben" performed by Jon Stevens. Halfway through he just turns to someone and asks, "Was this about a rat?"

Octopus Woman Please Let Me Go

I love that he's so well-mannered about it. Of course, you have to with octopus women.

victory dance in celebration of my swiftness

Henceforth shall Teppy be known as Octopus Woman.

Dude. Nobody mentioned "You're The Reason The Kids Are Ugly"

As one who has never heard this song, I'm so glad that you were willing to step up.
