You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

Trust my rage

I'm going to have to check my suitcase, because I've got too many liquids to carry it on.

Good to know...we will plan to be there a bit later then. If it takes a while, that's fine because there's pletny of space to wait. I think I already mentioned this but we can't go inside so just call me when you land and we will coordinate from there.

If you had a choice, would you prefer to a) have dinner at a (nice) sandwich shop, b) go to a barbeque with a bunch of people you haven't met before, or c) head home and eat there? I can see pros/cons to each but Joe and I are totally open to any of the options. We decided we would leave the choice to you (yay indecisiveness!)

Ha! You're too funny. I'm open to any. I like meeting new people, so the BBQ might be fun. I bet you'll be tired, so why don't we do that or the sandwich shop. Boy, I'm pretty indecisive too!

I just heard that a friend broke her leg in a vacuum cleaning accident: I always knew that vacuum cleaners aren't to be trusted.

If we do the BBQ, then I don't really have to watch Ellie quite as much. The only major con with that is I wasn't sure how you would feel about hanging out with a bunch of total strangers. Still, free food and the food was pretty good the last time we were there. (I have met this group of people 1-2 times but they seemed nice and might be good friends when I'm home with the baby.)

Was she dating a Spinal Tap drummer by any chance?

Oh and Happy Anniversary CABil and Ms. Havisham!!

(Don't know the details of the accident - but I am reasonably certain that no drummers were involved.)

I'm totally fine with that. I make friends pretty easily. And if not, I like people-watching.

Now tagless for your comfort.

We had an electrician in on Wednesday to put in a recessed plug & breaker for wall mounted plasma tv. Nice kid, but he drilled up through the floor and put a GIGANTIC gouge in our trim.

DH noticed when he got home and called the place to come fix it. Kid and another guy came over and we (fortunately) found an extra 12 ft. long piece of trim in our basement (bless the former owners for saving it). The kid came back last night to install said piece of trim. Only, he completely buggered the mitre cut and it looks like shit. And it's in an open spot with a lot of traffic.

Now I'm emailing pictures of the work to the contractor to show them how bad it is so we can hopefully get it fixed.

Add this to the furnace contractor who knocked a connection loose that resulted in us having no heat in subzero weather for over 8 hours and I'm less than thrilled with the work we've had to have done thus far.
