[link] This is the grody grout and caulk I pulled out (not the vertical, yet). That scary patch? Had holes. FUN. Had to patch that and since the tile is missing, put in a base of grout until I can get other tiles to replace it (at which point I'll have to chip it out.) Don't want more water damage.

Dude, Kalliope is possibly the most awesome girl-name

Seriously. Kalliope is my new favoritest name ever. And I'm betting she is as adorable as the moniker. (heh, I've been so lolized that I typed nomiker just then)

Many blessings on the house of Fras!

Our wings are not tired.

I love the name, too. Yay for a new cute baby with a good name to join Ryan in BuffistaBabiesPalooza!!

Sometimes I lie out full length on some random section of floor because it is mine.

I'm ridic.

Yay Kalliope! I know a 6 month old Kalliope whose father is Greek and it's pronounced the Greek way, Kall-ee-OH-pee, and she's called Popi (POPE-ee). But I think Kall-EYE-oh-pee is beautiful too.

Oh lord. My boss just sent an email chronicling his ills and it seems he exposed everyone. It isn't the flu, according to his doc, but he's wiped out. As in, he slept 20 hours of the last 24. Have had multiple meetings and talks with him. Really don't need to get sick now. None of us do.

Kalliope is a rocking name! One I never would have guessed. I was thinking Dinah. Or Clementine.

I'm recovering from this week. It's not good.

Good lord, there is a prescription for longer eyelashes. Now I know there are chronix conditions where it is an issue of not having any (alopecia, several coworkers have it), but seeing an ad on TV that I though was for mascara? Um.

But if you stop taking the meds, do your eyelashes go back to their normal length?

We had our first swim lesson of the season. Now that Noah talks, we can more easily find out what he like (yay! jumping in is fun) but unfortunately also what he really hates (pretty much everything else). Communication = mixed blessing.

Ugly Betty made my eyes puffy for tomorrow. Which starts too damned early. Fucking morning meetings. Thank god I'm under 10 minutes away.
