Now, where's omnis, to reply about all this fun?

Three possibilities spring to mind. 1) He's getting some sleep; B) he's completely scarred for life at the turn of conversation; or 3) he's disappointed that we didn't ask for his input on the other baby-daddies.

Any possibility you just wrote your assumptions as 1, B and 3 by accident and not to imply favorite one?

I went with 1 and B as an allusion to "Mad About You", one of my all time favorite sit-coms - a bit off, because I think Paul usually used A and 2. But that's where I got that. And then I was stuck for the third point so reverted back to numbers.

Ah, Mad About You. That needs to come around in syndication sometime again soon.

The morning news shows are all discussing your messy situation, Shir. Of course it is all the full of themselves talking heads that have no actual insight or solutions.

Most amusing was an interview with Condi Rice this morning. She was explaining how she and other top advisors would go into meetings with George after doing all their homework and they would all be humbled by the president's knowledge of all the facts. She insists he is all about the details. So how many people do you think she convinced?

Blah, politics.

Today is DH's birthday. I just made him a yummy omelet and bacon. I think we might be doing family bowling later.

My foursome reached your news? Talk about interactivity.

That's because there aren't any for the long term. Well, except for that talking nonsense some people suggested, you know. It's a shame the Middle East situation doesn't fit into 2 and a half minutes of summary in the news. I'm sure that would make news editors' lives easier.

And happy birthday to your husband!

I will continue sending the ~ma, thoughts, and prayers that saner heads will prevail and peaceful options will be considered. I can't even imagine going about daily chores and activities while being surrounded with such madness and danger.

overheard toddler talk at casa del sox:

"hello bathroom. I need you for a second. ..."

A few moments later:

"no. I don't know why my body does this."

Ha!

Hee!

Laura, BIG birthday wishes for B.!!!!

"hello bathroom. I need you for a second. ..."

A few moments later:

"no. I don't know why my body does this."

Man, that was the script for my entire weekend LAST weekend, when I was sick.

We saw Bolt yesterday (in 3-D! like, really GOOD 3-D [compared to what I remember from the 80s, which was crap 3-D]), because The Boy always takes his nieces and nephews out for a movie and lunch/dinner for Christmas, and since the age range was 11-17, we went with an 11-year-old appropriate movie. It was better than I had hoped. And his geektastic 17-year-old niece and I got to geek out when we saw the posters for Watchmen.

And now we're going to see it AGAIN today, with a whole OTHER set of nephews. (Both of whom are 16, so I suggested maybe a different movie, but no, the nephews are the ones who asked to see Bolt.)

Shir, I have no words. I'm glad you're safe, I hope your sister continues to be safe, and I wish sanity would prevail.
