My two sisters got pregnant (and gave birth) two days apart.

My brothers' babies are a month and a day apart. And my aunt and my uncle's wife gave birth a day apart (21 years ago! yikes...I'm old). And my sister-in-law and her sister gave birth 2 days apart.

I've already flipped out about an absurdly placed semi-colon this morning. Does that bode ill or well for my day? I really don't know.

One of my cow-workers just skipped down the hall in happiness because her size 2 pants were too big for her and she is all excited about having to get a size zero. Why does it matter? Except that it annoyed the piss out of me

It took me forever to get used to the ipod track thingie to move up and down on a list. I kept doing it backwards. I felt like my grandma trying to program a VCR!

My cousin knew this guy whose wife and mistress got pregnant at the same time. They actually went into labor at the same time... at the same hospital!

Wait, that was a Dudley Moore movie....

It's Spring! (well, I have flowers all year, but these just popped up this week) [link]

My sisters gave birth um, 20 years before I did. You'd think I would have headed their warnings.

I dunno. I find iTunes and my iPod easy and user-friendly, and oh god, sweet wonderful iPod, don't die before I can afford a swanky 160GB replacement!

those are gorgeous Laura.

I am shrift wrt iThings.

Sue, that is just annoying - I am pretty sure I do not need to know about co-workers sizes/diets/starving unless they are also close friends. It is too much of a touchy subject for most people.

From Emily's link about teacher pay: "If you’re putting all of your resources into teachers in the classroom, are you shorting some of the other aspects of what a good school requires?"

Isn't the ideal a teacher on one end of a log and a student on the other?

The condom video is my favorite infomercial ever.

Sue, that is just annoying

That was Sophia. But I agree, it's annoying.

Also annoying: skinny people complaining about being fat, anyone on a diet getting pissy if someone else brings in treats, people commenting on your lunch vis a vis your dieting situation "Oh a salad, you must be watching your weight." "Pizza for lunch again? You're going to puff right up if you keep eating like that."

I dunno. I find iTunes and my iPod easy and user-friendly

Me too, although I've only owned the iPods with displays.

I think iTunes is pretty good, so I don't mind being "forced" to use it. I love how it tracks how many times I've played each song and when the last time was, so I can create all sorts of smart playlists using this info.

people commenting on your lunch vis a vis your dieting situation

I think commenting on someone's lunch in any way except to say "that looks/smells delicious" is kind of rude.
