Now, you know I'm a heathen, but even so, most of those letters are completely crack-addled, and I think, typed by monkeys. But we could make a reciprocal agreement regarding me and Heather the TV columnist...I don't know why I ever read her...I don't think she's funny. Or right very often. And yet... Oh, and look, JZ, David Simon sits on your bench. Which I thought was kind of surprising, considering.
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I had a weekend of that and it drove me craxy. Chock full of restlessness with just a leetle bit of boredom.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
And the more bored and restless she gets, the more tempting the computer across the room will become. Or at least, it would for me and all other sane mortals who don't enjoy freaky willpower tests.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Punishingly Intricate
but don't forget that this time off does NOT count against her 12 weeks leave AFTER the baby is born
My best friend spent most of her almost 3 weeks of bedrest before the twins were born on the phone with her HR department trying to work out what the time off was and how she'd be getting paid and etc. I don't recommend that! She wasn't on totally strict no getting up at all bedrest either but had to spend most of the day not just reclined but on reclining on her left side. That got old quickly.
But in the end healthy babies and healthy best friend so it was totally worth it!

Seriously, a laptop is a life saver. I spent several weeks on bedrest, and I'd have gone insane without one.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
H'rm. I bet there are several extraneous and borrowable laptops in the family. Time to answer the calls from relatives saying, "What can we do for you?" with "Well, now that you mention it..."
Now, to the couch.

Well, you won't be borrowing my laptop, as she is an ex-laptop. This is pretty distressing, and will require lots of doing things that I don't quite know how to do. Like figuring out who to talk to to see about retrieving information from it, and choosing a new computer, which I can ill afford.
