"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Go for morning virtuousity!

We were able to drag the virtues into the early afternoon as Emmett, Matilda and I walked down to Haight Street to go to the bookstore. Virtue was discarded at the cafe where Emmett had an apple Danish and Matilda had a madeleine and I got more coffee. This seemed to merely whet their appetites though since it was followed by a non-virtuous stop at the pizza place where Emmett and Matilda split a slice.

But then a longish (toddlerish, dawdlerish) walk to the bookstore where Emmett bought Diary of a Wimpy Kid 3: The Last Straw and Matilda declared that the teeny, tiny, just right for her hands, Eric Carle book (Favorite Words) was going home with her.

She conked out on my shoulder on he way home and is napping on the couch. Emmett's got his nose deep into the book.

I hate to overstate this, but now may be the first time in my adult life when I believe 'This Land Is MyLand" actually applies to me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I am at woprk. Primed and now have finished painting the first coat on the accent wall in my new office. A pear green. (about a year ago they put in a door leading to the server room, and they never repainted the wall). Looks nice!

Now I goof around on the interwebs until I can do the last coat, go home, and watch the concert we are TiVoing. Can't wait!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Is this the concert that Fall Out Boy is playing in? They are in some "youth" inaugural concert.

No, that one's Tuesday evening.

Bless his 90 year old heart. He talked more than he sang andI can't see his fce but you could hear the joy in his voice.

He visited the March 5 times. God. I love him.

Beyonce sounds a little choked up. As did Ashley Judd.

blessblessbless.

I hooked myself up with NPR through iTunes. Loved that Pete Seegar came!

Well, crap. I didn't realize I only tuned in at the very end. Bummer.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Good morning Buffistas! I seem to have discovered a miracle cure for cramps, although it involves taking a prescription muscle relaxer not for the purpose intended. I took a half a flexeril prescribed for my back plus 2 ibuprofen and had relief for 10 hours! I am usually taking 4 - 6 ibuprofen every 4 hours and not getting full pain relief.

So now I wonder if I should try to get my Dr. to prescribe them for cramps or if I should try to go to Canada where they are OTC. When I was a kid in the eighties, everyone's mom seemed to have muscle relaxers for their period, but they don't seem to give them out like candy anymore.

I did the same thing! I discussed it with my ObGyn and he gave me a perscription for enough Flexoril for the first two nights of my period. It knocks me out cold so I can only do it at night and the first two are the worst.
