Illegitimate Daughter Denied Jell-O Fortune
There's a "There's always room for Jell-O" joke in there somewhere, but I'm too lazy to figure it out.
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Punishingly Intricate
I don't think I read about it here, but there is an alarm clock that donates money to an organization you oppose if you hit the snooze alarm too many times. A friend has it to donate to the Republican party.
Okay, that might be even more effective than a bunch in the face.

Sleep bon is pretty much a craven addict that bargains away exercise, coffee, showering, hair brushing, and being on time for work for more sleep.
This is totally me. But sometimes, Awake Sue will also bargains away things for sleep.
basically sleep is just the extremest example of how I am inertia's bitch. It's so comfortable and easier to just stay in bed.

Fucking dog got me up yesterday at 4 am for a walk. So not on. Except that I know when she does that it generally means there's some sort of GI emergency on the horizon, so I've learned not to ignore it.

Coding and Sleeping
I clicked on the Jell-O link and saw on the sidebar a number of stories about Spitzer's prostitute. It strikes me as somehow wrong that being a prostitute should end up being a good career move.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You guys, I think my being so over my job is kind of helping me seem more confident. I gave some pushback in a big fancy meeting this morning, and it totally worked.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Very general article on kids growth norms and basic info: [link]
but this: "No one knows what causes a kid to shoot up one month and not another, but there does seem to be a seasonal pattern. "Although we don't have a good explanation for it, children seem to grow fastest in the summer and slowest in the fall," says Joseph Gigante, M.D., associate professor of pediatrics at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital in Nashville."
makes me a wee weary as mac has grown almost a full inch since Dec. That is a faster pace than his first spring/summer in the US.

That article was giving me serious deja vu until I realized it was reprinted from Parenting magazine. (I'm not going crazy, I really had read it before. Whew!)

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Aimee has the perfect alarm clock.
Me.
I even have snooze capability. "You want another few minutes?"
"Yes, please."
"*sigh* Fine."
I think the thing that finally gets her out of bed (after two or three "Yes, please"s) is the sound of my teeth grinding.
