Buffistas

Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

I hate that boring movie.

Truer words were never spoken

Mmmmm Cap'n Crunch. My fav!

We have a cereal rule in our house, if you pick it -- you gotta eat all of it before you can get a different kind, so choose wisely. Thus we have a box of very, very stale "Smorz" *shudder* in the cupboard right now and why all my Crispx is gone. Darn kids!

Okay, that monthly catered event was a bit lame. (Seriously: pizza bagels.) But the cake was super dark chocolate delicious. Plus free champagne.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We did not have sugar cereal in the house when I was growing up, so I was appalled when my father started eating frosted mini wheats after I moved out.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Thrive to spite them

The closest we got to junk food was Apple Cinnamon Cheerios (or Honey Nut Cheerios). I do have a vague memory of being very young and having Lucky Charms (I think).

However, at Gramdma E's house -- well often there was Cookie Crunch and other junk cereals.

We got sugar cereals once in a veeery long while. My top three would be Lucky Charms, Capn Crunch, and Frosted Flakes. Cinnamon Toast Crunch is good but it goes soggy too fast. Golden Grahams too.

I love the Poles! They are an earthy people. They just don't have that paprika dignity of the Czechs.

Funny reading through this conversation, and then I'm looking up my limited no-cable-having tv possibilities, and among them are Czechoslovak Hour followed by Polvision. Gotta love Chicago.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

We never had sugar cereal at home. Ocassionally at grandma's, but when I went away on overnight school trips, I would get some from gas stops or 7-11s. What I really loved and still do is LIFE.

Kat, feel free to avoid this question, but does this article capture the NICU experience?

yeah. i mean, the words are all there and it is accurate, but still won't mean much unless you live it.

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

hey, what are people doing this weekend?

Tonight is laundry and perhaps beer, then tomorrow I am heading to SF to meet up with Katefate and Juliana and others, then Sunday is the Folsom Street fair.

The cereal, the game or the magazine?
