Clearly, we are dogs.
clearly. there seem to be a lot more of us than I thought...
I have 20/10 vision - is that dog too?
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Can I ask for some gift ideas?
What are some good gifts for a couple with a new baby? Not baby gifts but something they'd appreciate. Both of my brothers' wives are expecting new babies in the next month and, boy, it would make my gift-buying job easier/more cost efficient if a) I could get them each something as a couple rather than one for each brother, one for SiL and b) if I could get both couples basically the same thing.
I thought about movie tix along with an offer to babysit but am blanking on other good ideas.

a girlfriend just gifted another new-baby couple with two merry-maids cleaning gift certificates. That was WAY appreciated.
can you offer to make up a bunch of meals-to-freeze or a TJ's gift basket with emergency rations? We've been living on the frozen chow mein lately.

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
Tonight is my work christmas party.
I am wearing a stupid suit and heels.
BLEH.
Kristen is my date, and there's a Yankee gift exchange.
I purchased a seamonkey aquarium and a set of famous pirate playing cards with a "gold doubloon" that comes with a lead warning.
Waiting for Kristen to tell me which gift she wants to give.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
lisah, how about food delivery gift certificates?
I continue to be grateful that my work party is in the afternoon on Monday.

this is a good idea. uh...if maybe a little expensive for just me to do.
Friends gave me a Merry Maids cleaning gift cert for my birthday...which I've yet to use because I keep thinking I should do it before having a big party and also that my house is too much of a mess right now for someone else to clean.

This is a good idea too. I just need to figure out places that will do this in Raleigh and out in Frederick.
