Complete randomosity:
Saturday afternoon babypicspam:
Enough hair for ponytails, sort of...
A hat that Jilli would approve of
Done today so far:
*Swept kitchen, hallway, bedroom
*Excavated my misc. clothing pile in the corner of the front bedroom
*Weeded out some outgrown Matilda clothes for my friend's daughter Ruby
*Took down the trash (including the diaper pail, nast) and recycling
Still to do before leaving for the mammogram:
*Re-vacuum everything
*Take down and dispose of the irreparably torn, dust-catching canopy on the bed
Hec just called - Emmett's all-star team is now the district champions, having won the last game against Alameda (who beat them 5-4 on Thursday, whom they then beat 15-0 last night, and who went down to final defeat today 5-0). Matilda went with Hec to cheer Emmett on (thus all the stuff-doing above on my part), but ended up napping through most of it.
And in non-baby/chore/mememe-related stuff, Allyson, you are so loving and loyal and such a passionate, eloquent writer. What you wrote was so powerful; like all the other Buffistas, I hope so much that the people who really need to hear your words have had the chance to read them and let it sink in.
Oh Drew, My thoughts are with you and your family.
ION, weekend plans include flying to NYC for the week for Abby the Diva to attend Camp Broadway. (God help us.) Jess, I've got a metric buttload of business meetings all week while the Diva takes over the Great White Way, but if I find we've got time I'd love to see you.
Oh my yes! I'm also going to be totally swamped getting things in order before we leave for Canada (a week from tomorrow, eep!), but if you're in Manhattan maybe we could meet for lunch?
Jessica! Thank you for the book! It's wonderful...
You're welcome! It only took me what, four months to finally mail it?
Allyson, kudos to you for having the courage and composure to write that - I'm sad that any of it was necessary to say, but glad that you were able to put it so strongly.
Oh Drew, I'm so sorry. Safe travels.
Drew, my thoughts are with you and your family. Be safe.

Not surprising, but still huzzah-worthy nonetheless. HUZZAH!!! And woot! for good measure.

Whee... am in CITY! Apartment is OUTRAGEOUS-- holy cow. Right across from Lincoln Center and all the construction which makes me feel right at home. *g* Anyhow, Jess, how about Friday, or is that too close to your insanity? Abby's got her performance at 3PM that afternoon and her studio is down on 35th between 6th & 7th. Anyhow, we could meet for lunch down around there somewhere, yes? *bats eyelashes*
Friday could work - my office is all the way across town on 3rd Ave, but we could meet somewhere in-between maybe? Also, I've got your details in my Gmail contacts now in case you want to delete them from your post.
Drew -- thinking of you and your family!
I'm easy, Jess-- which, as usual, came out completely wrong. *g* Suggest away and I'll get my butt there. :-)
