Nope, I haven't checked LJ yet!
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Happy Birthday to Mac!
IMHO there are two places for a crying baby: home, and in a vehicle on the way home.
Too bad babies don't follow rules about when and where they cry.

Happy Birthday Mac!
I am having a stupid day. I blame the muscle relaxant I took before I went to bed. . . and thus ultimately, my back.
I got up - having slept a decent amount - about 7 hours but felt all groggy so I spent most of the morning on the sofa, knitting and playing with tivo. I called in my prescription refills - planning on picking them up this morning. The pharmacy closes at noon. I was so absorbed that when I finally checked the time - it was already 11:58. So now I can't pick up my meds 'til Monday AM. And, disturbingly, when I took my last generic Allegra I found a screw in the bottle. WTF?

Eeek on that. I hope at least it was a sterile screw.
I've spent my day so far in programming class, but at least I'm making some headway in figuring out how to use the GUI programming interface (Jigloo). I think I need a course in Java programing just to do the lessons in this course....

When I go to pick up my meds I'm going to bring the bottle with the screw in it to show to them. It's just weird. (Nothing similar has ever happened before.)

"No, it's about free hugs" and held his arms out. Um. I'll pass, thanks.
I think I'd reply with, "I'll pass, but can I interest you in a free kick in the scrotum?"
Weirdos.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kat, is there anything near me?
Mac--happy birthday to you! And a nice birthday present for his mother, a night to herself.
Free hugs are nasty. You don't know where they've been.

Some new breeds competing for AKC titles. I think that the Belgian Laekenois is cute. I wish that they had a picture of the Grand Bassett Vendeen. (Although I saw one in the Crufts results.)
