I like that you have a plan, ita. Is the specific hospital the one with the pleasant ER?
Speaking of hospitals... we are STILL waiting for a bed to open up at Children's for Grace. In the meantime, I bought several onesies that are snap-up fronts (easiest to put on kidlets with tubs, probes, etc) at the consignment store. And a pair of shoes that are a year to big for either kid but have CUPCAKES on them.
I still have yet to buy a changing table or crib.
In nonbaby news... um.... yeah. I got nothing. I've become that boring parent how has nothing going on except kids, huh?
I blame my mental picture of this on the fact that I've been re-reading Harry Potter books.
Heh.

Well, your kids have more going on than most, so I think you get dispensation.
I went to go see The Drowsy Chaperone today, which was a ton of fun -- very cute take on old-fashioned musical comedy. Also, John Glover was playing the main character -- an old-ish man sitting alone in his apartment, listening to records of old musicals and talking about how fabulous the old times were, and how shows now just aren't the same -- which was messing with my brain a little.
I have non baby news, but it mostly revolves around stupid crap at work. I'm finding it unbearable to be there right now. Not because I'm all, "oh my own children! I wonder what they are doing." But because my afternoon class is profoundly difficult; convo with counselor a few weeks ago ended with her telling me how difficult the group was, how none of the subs can keep them in check, how I must rule with an iron fist. The only thing I could think was, "you put them all together as a group, jackhole!"
AND, I'm reading Literacy and Longing in LA which is, at times, irritating in the extreme.
It has a narrator who is an avid reader, but pretentiously so. And she makes fun of readers of sci fi or romances or bestsellers. And yet, this book? So far has proven to be exactly the kind of predictable romance that she decries. It's not terrible, just... off putting.
I should have gotten Bright Lights, Big Ass instead.
There, see? You do have stuff! And I was wondering about that book, so I'm glad to hear an opinion.
Vortex, does that mean you got the/a new job? Sorry if I missed it earlier - I skim pretty seriously in this thread.
no, it means that my condo will probably go to settlement in the next 30 days or so.
Again, Jesse, not bad. Just... pretentious without cause. When I'm done, I'll drop it in the mail to you if you want.
Eh. Right now all I want to read is Lee Child.
Who is Lee Child?
And K earwormed me with "The Wheels on the Bus" which is making me contemplate putting my head in the oven.
