I've not been commenting, but I've been reading.
Huh. I think this must be going around. {{Juliana}} hope things are well or getting that way quickly.
I would use peas but then I don't want to eat them, and that seems a sad waste of a pea.
I took my meds on an empty stomach and then went and swam (sat on the edge and shouted encouragement because I haven't found a suit yet) with the children's classes. It was fun, except for the sick tummy, which is now cured with the application of lunch.
Brenda, quick-draft-ma to you. I hope it works.
I have work to do today. Lots of it. Look at me working.
Why would you just put the start years?
I'd only do this if my job history had some holes:
1997: Started at Big Important Company
2001: Started at Small, yet Boutique and Impressive Company
(unsaid: January 1998: booted from BIC and spent the next three years living in parents' basement, eating junk food, and writing porny fanfic. Which I'd worry about being my fate in a few months if it wasn't for the fact that my parents don't have a basement. So you can imagine my relief.)
Susan didn't mention it, so I shall:
Annabel's first cousin on her father's side will be a girl.
How are we referring to my SiL on this group, BTW?
I don't think I've referred to her enough to come up with a nickname like I have for my brothers. Call her whatever you think is appropriate for a public forum--e.g. I'm pretty sure D. would be amused rather than not to know he's known to a few thousand strangers on the internet as my Very Conservative Oldest Brother.
How are we referring to my SiL on this group, BTW?
That depends. Do we like her?
(Total joke. Joke joke. Much of a jokeness.)
Very Conservative Oldest Brother.
VCOB it is. Is she very conservative too?
VCOB was just used as an example--he's my brother. The pregnant SIL is married to the older of Dylan's two younger brothers.
She's basically the opposite of me. Sort of super-girly. She was appalled, seriously, that we got Annabel a sports mobile for her crib--a cute one with teddy bears holding footballs, baseballs, etc.
And, yes, I know the odds are very high that ten years from now Annabel and her cousin will be sitting around at family reunions complaining about their mothers, because Annabel will be sick of having a tomboy-geek mother, and her cousin will be equally tired of having a hyper-feminine mother, Southern style.
Annabel's GirlyAunt it is! Also, yay for cousins, Annabel! Let the bossing commence.
I think you should denote her in the Madrigalian nomenclature: Bitey Sis, Baudelaire Sis, Biggy Sis.
So she can be Girly SiL.
