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!)
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.
I brought salad, it is not enough. no idea what to go buy to accompany it.
I don't understand using the snooze button. You set the alarm to when you have to get up, if you can hit the snooze button then you didn't have to get up as early as you set the alarm. Just set the alarm later and get the good sleep instead of the crappy snooze sleep.
Gud is totally me. I've said this exact thing to GF. She has not bought in. Once I wake up, I'm awake. It would take me more than 9 minutes to even get back to sleep, so what's the point of snoozing? Also, if I am able to drift off, I'm gonna be pissed when that alarm goes again.
Morning people are freaky freaks who freak my shit out.
Word. There is someone in my office who is obnoxiously perky in the morning. I've had to tell her more than once that I need more coffee before I can deal rationally with that much perkiness (we're friendly, so it's not as assy as it sounds).
It strikes me as somehow wrong that being a prostitute should end up being a good career move.
And again I am Gud. I heard how she's getting record deal offers and of course the nudie mags are calling her. There is something seriously wrong with our societal values when scandal immediately catapults someone to fame.
I think I can take a walk and get a mini pie - that may help wake me up AND make my afternoon happy.
