Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Well damn. Now it hates me too. I blame you, Lee. It knows I'm associating with you.

My computer jinx is strong and unavoidable.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Quick, someone hide the server! I can't survive if the b.org goes down too!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Burrell, we have an eye appointment tomorrow (expect it to be half a day long I was told) and she said to tell the staff that Noah needs to be put in a room immediately to avoid other germy kids. AND that I need to tell Dr. K to wash his hands since he has a rep for not. I am hard pressed to imagine doing either thing.

Yeah, asking to be put in a room is one thing, but it *is* hard to tell a Dr to his face that he's a germ factory.

Noah loves tummy time. He is learning that he likes the mirror, little narcissist.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I heard of Norman Borlaug through the West Wing, too. I wonder what else I learned from that show and never realized.

All babies are, IJS. At least a few of them grow out of it, thank goodness.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Adorable!

At this point, I feel like rescinding the trip, but it would also punish those who did what they were supposed to do. OTOH, I hate for them to think that they can get away with this shit.

I definitely wouldn't rescind, unless you had explicitly connected homework/trip previously. Are these older high school/college kids? If so, I would probably approach them directly with the problem (with the intention being to make them aware of potential consequences of their actions and prevent future slacking).

I think it's because babies have the goldfish like memories. He glances away from the mirror for a second and then looks back and makes this face like, "OH! It's you! How did you get here?"
