dude, I won't let mac on ice skates. mostly because he would be a giant fraidy cat because he freaks when he falls.
Natter 62: The 62nd Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I have to admit, after reading about Jack Falla's backyard rink I sort of wish I lived in a place cold enough to build a backyard rink of my own.
Oh, I'd have laughed louder if I'd been there. But I'd have tried to have hid it too.
Noah meets up with gravity way more often than you'd think. He shouldn't be surprised by it at this point.
He's a toddler, they toddle. Much like Weeble Wooble but they totally fall down.
It's the surprise that I find so funny. I mean, I test gravity way too often for my own good but I am generally not startled by it. Just frustrated. It's gravity, it's a law, I get that. I just hate that it's so mean to me.
This is when Noah is unknowingly grateful for cloth diapers. More gravity-padding.
I am a walking advertisement against (for?) gravity of late.

Gravity really sucks sometimes. I was just putting my new DVD/VCR combo into the cabinet and hooking it up, and unknowingly kept leaning on the shelves next to the cabinet, the shelves that are apparently a bit wobbly when leant on and which then disgorge the dvds off the top shelf onto one's head. I kept on getting bopped by BSG box sets!
And now I see that I need to buy an S-video cable to complete the hookup. Oh, well, I can at least view my dvds and record stuff on it--I just can't record new stuff off the tv yet.
The only reason I was hooking that up tonight was that my cable (both tv and modem) went out for two hours. My first thought was "I know I paid them this month!" and then I called to verify it was an outage. First one I've had since I moved here 2 1/2 years ago--not a bad record on Comcast's part.
Oh, and finally, if I read your post upthread correctly, a Happy Birthday to shrift might be in order here!!
Hippo Birdies, shrift!
Big family party tonight, but first I must drive 4 hours to it, so I'd better get on with that. This time I'm remembering a swimsuit, because the resort has a pool -- which will not necessarily be in operation, but it might be, so why be swimsuitless if it is?
Happy Birthday, shrift!!!
Happy Birthday to shrift! One of my favorite years! May it be a fabulous one for you.
Have fun at the resort, Theodosia.
