Okay, I really need to get out of bed.

I vow to maintain what is, frankly, my favorite aspect of my girly plumbing, which is the whole orgasm thing.

(You know you were all waiting for it...)

Yay, Son of Jessica! Not so Yay, possible major surgery for Robin. But best ~ma for finding out what will work best for you, and getting excellent medical care.

Owen was singing "Old Macdonald" in the grocery store this morning.

Lillian sings it (well, sings snippets of it, mostly ei-ei-o with the occasional moo moo here and Old 'Donal!) ALL the time.

You know you can substitute the Ramones for most kids songs with a little effort. Kids also like Talking Heads and B-52s (in my experience).

Oh, she digs Placebo, and Bitter:Sweet, and some other stuff, but she ASKS for "Old 'Donal?" by name. And "Wheels? Bus?" and "Puppy?" (Snuggle Puppy) and many, many more.

minimeara:

• punctuation to Robin.

• congratulations to Jess!

• laptops live under pillows.

• I have not lost weight this week (although granted my 'weigh in day' is Monday night, so I suppose there's still time) and this is pissing me off. Want to be less fat. Now. Grr.

• I have not been to the gym this week OR last week. (a fact which may, just conceivably, have some bearing upon the previous one).

• Steve, my sole Fellow Geek here at school, rocks like a rocking thing - for he has downloaded BSG 3.12 and burned me a copy. He is the daddy. I heart him.

t waves weakly at Fay

Jen, is it much different than the incision they'd make for a C-section?

Usually it's bigger, yeah, and sometimes a little higher up on the abdomen. Depends on the person, really.

Yay baby boys! They're Grrrrrreat! You can name him Turtle. (That would actually make a cute name, I think.)

Robin, my coworker had a hysterectomy for fibroids this fall and while she went stir-crazy during the recovery (called me at work at 8am the day after the surgey all, "I'm bored!") she seems to be doing geat now.

For children's music grownups can love, we are currently way into They Might Be Giants. It causes wild crazy dancing, which is good as it wears the rascal out. I also know two year old twins who loved Elvis.

Jessica - Pregnancy caffeine gets the thumbs up! [link] They wouldn't let me have a sip.

I've sent my sister the TMBG kiddie albums, which both she and the kids like a lot.

I am at home again, and sort of ambivilent about it. I do feel much better than on Wednesday, but it's THREE DEGREES outside, and I just feel like that any advances to my health could be in jeopardy if I venture outside in the 3 degree/negative 15 wind chill weather. Plus, there's nothing pressing at work, and I have the sick time. I feel guilty though.

No guilt. You don't want to slide backwards. Rest and get healthy before venturing out into the cold outdoors.
