You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

ION, my freshman roommate from Penn just friended me on Facebook. She hasn't changed much (Susan says enviously, reflecting on the 60 pounds she's gained since then) and has a very cute little girl. Must, at some point, send actual messages to all these people I'm rediscovering online...

IotherON, I haven't posted Annabel pics in awhile....

Annabel the Bat

Annabel the Bus Driver

Both of these are from the Children's Museum, where we had her birthday party.

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

Susan, I love her expression in the Bat picture -- completely engaged, and so clever, and just a wee twist of trouble in her smile.

Oh, she's all about the wee twist of trouble these days...

So sad. Forcing gender stereotypes on a child in the name of "helping" him or her makes me want to cry and scream at the same time. My cousin M. is that kind of father. He has two boys, and God forbid either of them do anything the least bit "girly." His father (no blood relation to me, thankfully) filled him with venom and hate for anything "queer." (Could I use more air quotes? Seriously.)

In meme news, 16 explications down, 4 to go. Then I can go home and goof off tonight since ND is out playing with a non-Buffista birthday friend. Stupid being sick and having to get up early. I hate being left behind. It's happened so much these past couple of weeks while I've been sick. Totally not ND's fault--I would want a break from being housebound if I were him, too--but it's a bummer.

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

I love the Annabel the bus driver picture.

Just kneaded the bread. Now it's rising again. Bread is a lot of work.

Susan! When did she get so BIG??? And wow, is she pretty! (She always has been; I just feel the need to reiterate it.)

I KNOW! My SIL did a scrapbook with her baby pictures, and I can't get over how much she's changed so quickly.

And wow, is she pretty! (She always has been; I just feel the need to reiterate it.)

I always love to hear it...
