Okay random question for the ages:

Why are maternity clothes made in horizontal stripes? Seriously.

Also, what do you do when coworker has a baby 4 months before you and gives the baby the EXACT names you adore?

Good, VW, thanks for asking. I mean freaked out, overwhelmed, vaguley uncomfortable and unclear on how I got to this point, but physically good. Except I didn't do my homework for today.

All of those things sound relatively normal. Including the homework :). Welcome to being a student! I'm glad you're doing well. I haven't gotten to "talk" to you much lately.

I'm doing well--really well, actually. I was not too inconvenienced by the light brite scare, which is amazing, since I ride both of the T lines that were closed, during the times that they were closed, without incident. I got lucky, I guess.

Because stupid people design them. Still.

Use 'em anyway. It's a co-worker. It's not like it's family.

It's cool to think that the city responded in a way that was mostly effective and efficient. Even if it was over something so, to most, clearly not a threat.

Gah. homework. I should put on clothes to wear for the rest of the day and go have brekkie and a hot tea and THEN do my work. Class starts at 8. dont' want to go.

Are you done with school, VW? I feel awful for not remembering.

Don't feel awful! It's so hard to keep up with everyone.

I am not done. Actually, I've got two years left! GAH! But, it's moving along well.

Two years! whoa! I cannot imagine that. I have the poetry class I'm taking today and another class that lasts for two weeks in Hawaii on a cruise starting next week (CRUISE! HAWAII!) and then my thesis. Thesis = scary bane of my existance. I'm vaguely freaked about it.

I must finish my proposal draft before we go to Hawaii. Or maybe in Hawaii.

Wow! Go you! The end is near!

Thesis = scary bane of my existance. I'm vaguely freaked about it.

Me too. I'm in the honors program, so I have to do a thesis. I'm in a thesis planning prep class right now, which I'm hoping is going to ease some of the freaking. Of course, I have an idea of what I want to do, which is more than some people, so I guess I'm on track.

Class in Hawaii! On a cruise! That would be awesome!

Well, I just shower and get going. Hope you have a good day! Good luck with the homework!

Thanks! have a good day yourself.

Kat, I do have to say that McSteamy kind of broke me when Addison came out of the surgery and collapsed in his arms. And I'm enjoying how he seems to be better at playing the game than all the rest of them, even though everybody knows he's kind of a sleaze.

Feh on Izzy. That All About Me schtick is getting way old, especially when it means she's fucking with Bailey and fucking up Callie.

ETA: Oh, and Alex totally messing with Addison made me laugh.

And I have no idea if Dr. Mc Dreamy is going to drive now that he's a dad.

They already had one, maybe two kids, I'm pretty sure.
