Yikes, brenda!

The Amazon reviews and customer images are HILARIOUS.

Yep, started last week. I only took a couple of days off. It's going well - I think I'm really going to like it there.

Oh! Just realized I wasn't entirely clear. (See?) Not "fire in my building, two doors down" but "fire in the-building-two-doors-down." So no actual danger to me, just sleep dep.

Ooh, now it's on the news - they think it was a new laptop charging. Freaky.

Sleep dep is better than smoke damage or worse, but still sub-optimal for you, I say.

No progress on the hard drive. SIGH

Also sub-optimal. Feh.

I have totally arrived--I ignored Paris. I mean, I knew there was a tall blonde standing next to me, but I didn't care.

But seriously, what would you have done if you knew it was her? Still ignored her, I'd hope.

That Amazon link is fabulous Cashmere! Hee.

I love Paris in the spring time.. Oh, you weren't talking about the city.

Brenda, glad you are okay, if a little sleep deprived.

I just realized the app I downloaded will ONLY work on my school computer at the moment. And maybe Lori's work computer. Not either of my little old desktops.

Also, Jessica, I'm so with you about Gilmore Girls. I am still watching it, because why not? But that is the worst fake belly ever.

Also also, WRT finding out the sex of the babies via ultrasound: I find it really interesting that there are plenty of people who are adamant about not knowing, about it being a surprise. What's weird is not that they want that, but that current technology means it would only be a surprise to THEM since one's doctors and their respective nurses would all know.

Weird to me.

I have an appointment at the Rare Books Department of my public library. I wonder if they'll make me wear special white gloves while handling the books. At UCLA's Rare Book Department, there is a huge collection of historical porn. Since it's a public university, all have access. So there are plenty of oddly skeevy folks who go just for the porn. Odd, yes?

If oddly skeevy folks are there just for the porn I would request special white gloves.

I didn't want to find out about the sex of my babies in advance. The first time I let my gf watch so she could tell my sister. Judi was sewing a bunch of stuff and wanted the info. That secret was blown when my clueless nephew mentioned the cool blue quilt that his aunt made for my baby. His girlfriend rolled her eyes but we didn't tell him he messed up. With Bobby the US was too early to tell so no one knew. Ha! Don't know why, I just wanted to hear the announcement at delivery. It's a boy! Both times, but my instinct knew that both times too.

Of course I do want to know in advance with the Buffista sprog!

edit cause skeeby not so skeevy

I would bet on gloves Kat.

If oddly skeevy folks are there just for the porn I would request special white gloves.

Ha! (and edited per your edit)

I need a vacation. Which seems really wrong, given the number of days off I've had in the past month (between Christmas, New Year's, furniture delivery, and MLK Day), and yet? I would still like a vacation for real.

GG: I like the Lane/Zack story but I agree that even though she's carrying twins -- that was just ultrafake looking.
