So the shelf above the toilet strikes again. This morning, I accidentally flushed a bottle of Lancome moisturizer. Now, I'm wondering if that will clog, or just float out to sea.

Sue - we have one of those too! They're in cahoots!

Jesse, Auntie Em's is good! Not their cupcakes, which are just okay due to meh cream cheese frosting. Though their cupcakes are as big as my head. (okay, not really, but they are pretty huge).

But they make an amazing breakfast sandwich on pretzel bread. And they do occasional market dinners where they do seasonal foods, which I've heard is super yum. Otherwise they are mostly a lunch and breakfast place.

They were in the nice portion of my sort-of previous neighborhood. It was a good place to take the baby. Though the service sucked.

Sue, clogging would be SO SO irritating. We have one of those shelves also. Nothing is on it right now.

Today started out great -- I heard the street cleaning truck and rushed out to move my car, and got there =just= as the metermaid was getting out of her truck to ticket me. She very graciously allowed me to move it without ticketing!

I need to sign up for the e-mail reminders again. Over the winter, I got out of the habit of marking street-cleaning on my calendar.

I try not to keep things near the edge that will tip over, but I am not really responsible for my actions early in the AM. I did flush it once after and everything was okay, but it might settle and get lodged somewhere during the day.

so ridiculously tired. despite what I said last week about growing out my hair, I think I am going to get it cut at lunch, it is driving me crazy.

For example, if kids caused a parent anxiety for their wellbeing than joy, that'd still work out.

Well, there's a lot of that too. I was being glib. Bonding hormones: keeping the species going since 250,000 BC!

Kat, Tree Pose Noah is adorable!! Speaking of which, do you want a copy of Itsy-Bitsy Yoga that Ethan got free from work? It might be a bit dumbed-down for you, but it's all about doing yoga with a toddler.

ROCK ON KAT! AND JESSICA! (and anyone else who has a mom or a kid and wants to come join in) - these are awesome. [link]

Oh, Stephen Colbert, you are adorable. Like a giddy child talking with the astronaut, who is charming. It's awesome.

I thought this was probably his best interview ever, just because both of them were so jazzed about the interview! SC was as giddy as could be, talking to an actual astronaut while he is actually in space (he was giggling over the Wrist Strong bracelet spinning in mid-air!), and the astronaut was cracking up over everything (delayed, of course).

ION, I am soooo relieved right now. I had severely fucked up at work last month by forgetting to renew a subscription and didn't realize it until yesterday when my co-worker pointed out we still hadn't gotten last week's issue. I figured I'd call them from here at home to see if I couldn't order an extra copy out of my own pocket to cover the missing issue while the check is being cut for the entire subscription just to try and cover my ass a bit.

Well, I just got off the phone, and they've got a six-week grace period for the renewal, so the issue is going out first-class today and they have me in their files as renewed in case my boss double-checks.

Phew. I was so freaked that I couldn't stop thinking about it all night and sleep was restless, to say the least.
