Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

I didn't even get this one!

But my life is pretty easy. And it meant I got to go to dinner with my friend of 10 years who moved away 2 years ago. We kept cracking up because we would never have guessed, 10 years ago when we were going to dinner every week, that we'd be having a long conversation about childbirth. Or for that matter, that she'd be married to the guy her little brother's age who asked her out as his friend was barfing in the bushes. I remember us thinking the prospects with such an auspicious beginning were not good.

I think I got a contact high off my friend. She was so giddy! Last night was her first night without kids in over 2 years. She kept bubbling how incredible it was to sleep a whole uninterrupted 9 hours! And how she could eat whatever without having to set an example! Dessert without finishing her dinner! She was going to get a froufrou drink but decided she didn't want to risk it bursting her giddy bubble. She figures she'll miss them in a day or so, but for now was just enjoying it.

I'm about to start my 4th hour of programming class. Despite this, it's actually been a good day in that I learned lots of stuff without too much stress. But I wish I'd had longer to take a nap....

Hey, you peoples! I am home! Comin' atcha via mobile phone modem. Don't technology just rock? I missed you!

I need to do laundry, too. In my new washer & dryer! And we just got our new bed, which is made of win.

Hi! Hi! What's been going on?

(eta: It's nice of you to open a new thread just for me so I can catch up on the old natter gradually!)

Hi Liese! Are you posting from home?

okay, I am insane.

We are moving on March 1 or 2. Wanna see the new house: link will go poof in a few minutes. I wonder how much movers will cost for us to go 13 miles?

We are planning a first birthday shindig for the 4 weeks after (all of you folks are invited).

Um. Hello. Is that crazy?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Kat, it looks glorious! I adore the fireplace and especially the kitchen!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Kat, that's AWESOME! LOVE the yard. Not crazy. Ambitious, maybe.

Yay, Liese! Glad the house is coming together.
