jz, I'm fairly sure that my brother and his wife went with that dresser/changing table combo when they were expecting my niece. Definitely practical and not bad looking furniture.

Lee - would love to, but we are still on the softball rollercoaster. Next weekend appears to be a Stockton tournament. We don't get a weekend off until mid-August.

I'm feeling a bit ragged. I should be doing homework - I have a paper due tomorrow - but I haven't lifted a finger in that direction this evening. Instead, I'm surfing the internet, checking e-bay for a Kate Spade purse (thank to Nicole), reading some fanfic, and obsessing over those pics ita linked.

I once had a total stranger scold me on the Boston T because my girl baby wasn't wearing pink.

That's because this could KILL YOUR BABY!!!

I'm sort of fortunate in that I can't understand most of the unsolicited advice I got.

I do sort of wonder what the OMG you must have Rails! people do when they have to change the baby out and about. Even when I've found a baby-changing station somewhere, it doesn't have rails. Maybe a little lip that won't stop anything.

The continuing soap opera that is my living arrangements continues.

Ron, whom we were living with and who was moving into the house with us and was going to pay the rent, has told us "Sorry, bailing on the arrangement, I'm waiting until the sheriff shows up to throw us out of the house, then me, my loser son, his pregnant girlfriend, and their two-year-old son will find some bridge to lurk under, because blood is more important than anything, including honor."

IE, sorry you can't cover the rent, hope this doesn't hurt our friendship.

There is a good side to this, we were able to rent one of the spare rooms to a sister of a very good friend who, we discovered, has been sleeping in her car these past few weeks. She's a geek like us, so this is all well and good. However, that still leaves $450 a month to cover, which we can't do at this time. Either disability needs to come through or Hubby needs to find something he can manage--while hoping he's not going to find himself in surgery for his neck in the next month.

Anybody know anyone in the Provo/Orem, Utah area who's looking for a room to rent? If not, some income/housemate~ma would be very much appreciated.

Jeesh, connie, I wish I had someone to send your way. Best of luck.

Tons of ~ma to Aimee and Nora on their new jobs.

I am awake with a splitting headache. So tired. Can't sleep.

So sorry, sj. I'm awake, but fortunately without a headache. Still, I should go to bed or I'll have one tomorrow. Also, I have a bunch of work that I should do still for a committee meeting tomorrow. Blurgh.

New job~ma, Nora and Aimee!

Living-situation~ma to connie!

That's all I've got. It's turning into kind of a sucky Monday here, but hopefully I can get some stuff done today.

I hope your day gets better, Raq. Is it weather or other that sucks?

Yay new jobs, Nora and Aimee!

Good resolution to the living-situation~ma to connie.

I have 600 messages threadsucked and am more tired than "need to read them all" tonight.

Had a lovely weekend, am pleased.
