What cute pictures!
Worst NICU names I've heard (true story!): there were triplets that were born and cared for at H. They were named Winkin, Blinkin and Nod. Seriously... that's just wrong.
Anya: It's lovely! I wish it was mine! Oh like you weren't all thinking the same thing. Giles: I'm fairly certain I wasn't.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I am sitting in a completely dark room (except for the laptop screen). Somewhere in the room is a black cat. Which I can't see.
Oh well.

We have achieved a new high in sibling relationships.
Emmett and I and Matilda were playing on the floor and she was being cute and laughing.
Me: You have to admit it. She's almost as good as a finger monkey.
Emmett: She's
better
than a finger monkey.

But does he think that when he has to change her diaper? If so, it's true sibling adoration. (Matilda is such a lucky girl to have such a wonderful big brother!!)
My mom's umbrella stand is a brandy (I think) cask that I found when we were in an antique store in Ohio several years ago. The name of the distillery printed on it is "Moran's," which is her maiden name.
My black cat is curled up under the computer desk with a paw draped over my toes.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
DH is at a RUSH concert. I am watching tv, playing on the internets and drinking a glass of wine. I suspect that I have just sent a puzzleing message to my DH. I justed texted him with the message " we need to build a stovemobile". It scares him when watch design shows, but he might like this idea.
and the cat, he thinks I should goto bed

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Aww, Beth. The SO really really really wanted to hit that tour. Alas, no cash. I tried to score some free tix off craigslist, but no such luck.
Emmett & Matilda are the cutest, smittenest siblings ever.

Always Anti-fascist!
When I was at the BareNaked Ladies concert last winter, there was a big screen so people could read messages texted to others at the concert and one was like "Marissa, will you marry me?" and people, like, riffed on it all night: Marissa, you can do better. Who's Marissa? Etc. Etc.

I'm not one for big shows - I would have liked to have seen them , but it gets too loud and too many drunk people for me. However, I might have been ok at theis venue. DH was on alert to take notes to see if I can deal with it. ( it is one of the indoor/outdoor venues. looks like I'd be ok outside)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Awww....Emmett and Matilda are both cuter than finger monkeys.
