We're proud of you, aurelia, but Super Porny Pants is crying quietly in the corner over there.

Natter 43: I Love My Dead Gay Whale Crosspost.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It's GORGEOUS here. I was standing out on the back porch in bare feet in the sun and it's all warm and Spring-like.
I'm supposed to be getting on a plane this afternoon to go back to LA.
Don't. Wanna.
I can't say I blame you, Allyson.
It's gorgeous here, too though. The fluffy clouds in the distance don't speak well for the future, but for right now, they are pretty.
Did the FEMA people get new jobs helping Glark run the technical side of TwoP? Site errors and downtime have been climbing for the stratosphere lately, and now the forums are down for revamping again just in time to kill the buzz following all the SciFriday season finales.
Timelies all!
It's lovely and warm here, too. I'm not minding a bit, as I've had enough of winter.(even though this winter wasn't all that bad, I still am tired of it.)
Am sleepy, since even though theoretically I slept enough, the damn cat woke me up several times. Bah.
It seems lovely outside, so I'm thinking I'll pack up the readings I'll need to use for my take-home midterm and take them to Central Park to go through them.
My Dad got a remote-controlled racing car for my nephew's bday. It's zooming all over the house right now. There's a dog that looks not unlike Rolf from the Muppets behind the wheel. Cutest.
So sad I'm not going to be here for his birthday. He loves cake and I Cream. That's how he says it, "I Cream."
He hasn't tried pie, yet. I should have made a pie while I was here. Damn.
All packed. Ready to go. Don't want to leave the nephew. But my SIL wants to take him to LA. So, maybe next year. She was really stoked about the thought of Catalina, when I described Thanksgiving to her, but you know, Thanksgiving, adults, one crazy toddler...not such a good idea.
Blathering on. Too much caffeine.
Yay, Spring!!
Depending on the actual people involved, one kid and a bunch of adults can be great -- you can spread out the intensive kid time. When I was in high school, my family took a couple of trips with another family that had one kid my age and one little one, and it was great.
Definitely depends on the toddler. Really, I find that generally it's when they run in herds that it gets hair-raising for all.
It's a lovely day here, and I'm opening windows that haven't been open in at least six months if not more. I was even so enthused that I went out and bought some seeds that allow you to plant them six weeks before last frost date... which coincidentally is today! So I'd better get crackingplanting.
