Happy birthday, Fay! We are all so lucky to know you in all your multifaceted snarky sexy adventurous wise loveliness. The day of your birth was a fortunate day for everyone who's ever met you.
Accomplishments of the day so far are: (a) dishes (mostly) washed and (b) coffee made and (mostly) consumed. Other than that, I've been beset by Matilda in a rare clingy-on-Mommy mood, draping herself on me and clinging to my neck and begging, "Holdy Mommy!" and "Cuddle!" and sometimes patting me on the head like I've been a good dog. She also wants me to post everything in ASSCAPS, but so far I've thwarted her.
"In God we trust" really needs to go, mostly because of many Americans not in fact trusting in God, partly because it feels like a violation of the whole render-unto-Caesar/render-unto-God distinction, and partly because despite all the recent do-overs our money is still so butt-fuckin'-ugly it's really an insult to God (not to mention graphic design and the art of engraving and practically every other creative endeavor in existence except possibly the guitar solo, and possibly our money insults even that, but at least our money doesn't claim to trust it on every single bill and coin).
Though maybe it should say, "In guitar solos we trust." In Latin.
I am a horrible girlfriend.
CBD has been up most of the night nauseated and miserable. So, I just asked him if he was up for any breakfast and, if so, what?
He responded, "Do we have any bacon?"
I said, "Yes, are you kidding me?"
He's eating oatmeal made with blueberry juice and a banana.

When I have an upset stomach, I inevitably want Buffalo wings.

I found an online Latin translator to try and translate this for you.
The damned thing did not like the words "guitar" "trust" or "we" so I only got the Latinate "solace"
Smonster, I can't tell you how happy I am that you COMMed my dad.
Someone brought fudge back from her vacation and I just had a slice. My bloodstream is now 50% sugar and 50% coffee.
Cute pics of CJ, Suzi.
Thanks, smonster. I can't believe how much he has grown lately - he has added about 3" since January.
I'm functioning (or not) on 3 hours sleep today. This does not bode well for the rest of the day. On the plus, and extremely scary side, I got told that a project I'm assisting with this year is something I will be leading and responsible for next year. It is a big deal, heavy responsibility type thing. I'm both terrified and honored.

Wowza.

Congrats! I know it's scary but I have every confidence you will kick ass.

Mmm, this actually sounds ideal. I think I'll go get some coffee, though fudge is currently out of my reach.
Or lunch. Maybe some lunch? Off to pester coworkers.
The crazy thing about CJ growing so much this year is that he still is under 100 lbs. Boy is a stick. At some point genetics will kick in and I'm afraid he will be screwed, but for now - his metabolism is amazing. I'm quite jealous.
