Almost random cute baby: Look at the lashes on those peepers. Cutie pie kid of a friend--Allyson, if you're around, that's V's daughter.

you could insert "However, we don't care what you think." after each of these sentences. They didn't even notify their "community board" until two days ago.

Oh, totally. I still can't believe how they handled it. It wasn't going to be pleasant, even if it was an amicable separation. They basically took the worst possible approach (almost, I can come up with a couple others,) and then kept compounding it. Did they really expect no repercussions? It speaks to a tin ear, which really inspires confidence in their serving the community.

How come everyone's got babies with great lashes? I so got cheated.

Stephanie: Dr Bronner's unscented diluted a bunch with a dash of jojoba oil and a drop of lavender EO.

Timelies all!

Ah, Rule 34. Or why you need to be veeery careful what you Google.

V and R's little one is adorable!

I have work to do for tomorrow. Am sad.

That is one outrageously-lashed supercutie boo there.

Matilda has extremely average and unremarkable lashes, poor thing.

Which reminds me! She actually does like carrots.

Der. Of course you know them too.

She's a little one, like Matilda, if I read 14 months right.

Sara-bet you weren't ugly, though.

Matilda can come over and grouse with me, the cutie.

I just recalled something that may be (no...I'm pretty certain) a showstopper for a 10 am release tomorrow. Fucksticks. Can't do anything about it from here, and everyone is likely offline anyway. Why did I not think of this 3 weeks ago?!

Ah well, I'll just hope I don't get come down on with a ton of bricks. The big fuckup that we discovered last month has oddly enough, gotten us kudos and understanding for catching and moving to fix and I actually think has changed something fundamental, which is HUGE. Still a shitstorm, but I've been oddly surprised by the lack of blame on the part of our bosses. This shit used to get people fearing for their jobs. OTOH, maybe they recognized their lack of leadership in the past brought us to this. I don't know.

I suspect part of me just fundamentally fears being called on the carpet. I don't like fucking up, even when I'm not the one really doing it!

You know what? I can't recall the pictures of me as a baby. There are plenty, but I guess I just haven't seen them in a long while. I know what my brother looked like (no doubt because his sons look so much like him, I've perused his pictures most recently.) And I remember the toddler ones.

I was very pink, I know that (contributed to my dad's nick for me.)

Apparently Alaska had record turnouts for both Democratic and Republican caucuses yesterday, 12x more people than 2004. I had been so bummed about missing our caucus yesterday, but it turns out it was totally not a problem. I attended the 2004 caucus, held in a hotel meeting room (not at all crowded). Last night's was held in the ballroom of our convention center, and it was PACKED. They overflowed into the lobby area, and had a hard time caucusing because there wasn't enough room to have significant space between the groups.

My understanding is that the Republican group had no trouble fitting into a large, but much smaller space. Juneau is probably the most Democratic area of the state, but still, this is amazing to me in such an overwhelmingly red state.

And, unrelatedly, what a cutiepie!
