I'm very curious about the piglets, but it doesn't say how big they get--they're teacup tiny NOW, but how big are they as ADULTS?

Beer stein big! (I have no idea)

The piglets freak me out. I wonder if they're good eating.

It's always extra special when meara mearas. As only she can, much as we try.

Well, not me. I'm clipboard-lazy.

Today was a massive waste of time and a mood-killer to boot. But msbelle got a new job! We had a delurker! I may one day try Mastercook (I'm pretty sure I used it back in the day). So not a total loss.

In terms of things one wants made (like the bigger iTouch (I'm going to justify my eventual one as my movie player)) I want an 8.5x11 piece of ePaper that I can print to from my desktop and carry with me into the kitchen. Well, carry to anywhere, but I'm thinking mostly of things like recipes that I don't want to keep in hard copy, but I don't always have the kitchen tidy enough to have safe counter space.

TiVo tricked me into watching reality TV. Half an episode of the Kardashian thing--mostly I wanted to know if that was really Bruce Jenner (and it is), and an entire Girls Next Door. Who are those girls? I mean, what separates them from the other ones that have posed? They're all his girlfriends, and no others are? Is there a First Girlfriend, the one who shares a bedroom with him? What's with that Kendra chick? I think she'd totally cut a bitch. But she wears trainers and jeans, so I kinda dig her.

Makes me wonder if I'd have made money with my body if I'd had the chance. Probably not. I have issues with attractiveness that'd sabotage me from the get go.

The streetlights in my neighborhood are out. Since one is located right outside my bedroom window this is the first time I'll sleep in a REALLY dark room in this apartment.

In decidedly brighter news, I encountered no ice (other than on the car) on my way home, my apt has power and I got out of rehearsal 1.5 hours before scheduled.

Those piglets are cute but since I know they don't stay like that I really don't want one.

I would want a piglet if it didn't get bigger than, say, 20 pounds. I would totally get one then. So cute!

Well, not me. I'm clipboard-lazy.

Heh. It's all about opening "last" in the tabbed browsing and cut and pasting...

Welcome Gadget Girl.

Hey, Allyson, I saw your book prominently displayed at Virgin Megastore today. Which ain't shabby several months after its publication, so maybe a surge in xmas/channukah sales.

askye...where are you in North Florida?

I lived in Pensacola for 7 years and spend parts of the last 3 years in Tallahassee getting my Masters from FSU.

I'm on day 3 now of a sinus headache - that Tylenol can moderate but Advil can't, weirdly - and I cannot imagine how people with migraines or other chronic pain conditions find the will to live. I have a good pain tolerance - gave birth twice with no pain meds, but it's the ongoingness of the pain that gets to me.

IOW ita, I am so sorry, and my god you are an amazing person to keep going.

Ugh, sorry about the sinus headache, flea. Inhaling steam and doing neck stretches sometimes helps mine. Stretching the head all the way forward, back, sloooow rolls, etc. Drugs and I don't get along, or as I tell my poor elderly mom, I only believe in them for recreational purposes.

Sorry about the headache, flea. I've had one intermittently since Monday morning when I woke with a nearly-migraine-level one, though it's receded to an annoying but less dire annoyance since. Dr. Theo prescribes as much saline nasal spray as you can manage, (and refreshing hot showers, provided you put the children into four-point restraints while they're unattended.)
