Heal away Byron. Heal away. Wish we humans had a purring feature to help mend ourselves.

Kristin, I'm glad Byron is recovering so well.

Yay Byron!

OMG!!! In a perfect example of the universe giving Yin & Yang. My boss just offered me a ticket to Yankees @ Angels in August. Fireworks Friday to boot!!! Sweet!!
So my body sucks, but my friends rock. Guess I can't complain too much right? Could be worse.

Kristin, hope you don't mind that you and Byron were sort of stars of my assembly yesterday? We have a half hour Key Stage 1 (ie 5-7 yr olds) asssembly every Monday, and one of the 3 of us who teach that age range keep them busy during that time while the others get a wee break. I happened across a picture book called The 3-legged Cat by Margaret Mahy, whose teen books I loved as a teen, so I took that down and explained to the kids about you and Byron before reading the book. (In which Tom the 3 legged cat thinks wistfully of the pleasures of going off adventuring and prowling the world, and then as the result of a happy mixup, ends up adventuring and prowling the world whilst wrapped around the bald head of a roving adventurous type who has inadvertently left his moulting russian hat with Tom's short-sighted owner.)

Yep, picked him up yesterday. He's more than a little rough around the edges, poor thing. He's recovering from some pretty major illness.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

See also: Parents who think they get to take credit for their babies' good sleep habits. If your 9-month-old sleeps through the night, I envy you. I really, really do. But the fact that mine doesn't is really not evidence of parental incompetence on my part. Some babies just don't sleep.
My mother still reminds me that my sister was a perfect baby who slept through the night at five months, and I didn't sleep through the night until kindergarten. (By the time I was a toddler, I'd pretty much learned that waking up my parents in the middle of the night just because I was awake wasn't such a good idea, so I'd play with my dolls or read a book or something until I felt tired enough to go back to sleep.)
