I think she's adorable and that the camera loves her, but I'm biased.

Dude, no. Your child is ridiculously "I will dominate your face!" photogenic.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Favorite client: pays bills not only on time but early. Easy to get along with always appreciative. Never bargains, so I find excuses to give her discounts so she is not paying a higher rate than pain-in-the-ass clients who are hard to work for. Decided I ought to give her some sort of gift.

Problem: she runs a one person office, and I know she gets hit on a lot by vendors which creeps her out. So I think no chocolate, no wine or booze, no candy, no flowers nothing that could feel too personal. Something that shows appreciation for a good client but with no vibe. Given the circumstances I need to choose something that is really unambigous about being a gift for a good customer, and not overly personal.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Something office related. A nice pen, like maybe the fancy wood ones, for example.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Maybe Harry & David type goodies?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Happy... Standard Time, everyone!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

For some reason, Halloween made me think of "Dogs in Elk", and so I just went and re-read it. The hilarity sure stands up over time, and I also get a kick out of seeing lori in there!

Probably because of the team at MIT that recreated Dogs in Elk with a pumpkin carving. And, wow, that was 10 years ago. Probably the dogs are no longer living. But happily romping in elk carcasses somewhere in the great beyond.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Agreed. I am consistently blown away by how incredibly gorgeous and expressive that child is.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Definetely agreed.

I started getting a pretty bad migraine (by my measurement, not ita measurement) at about 2:00 yesterday afternoon, so I've been asleep at least 11 out of the last 16 hours.

I may never need to sleep again.

Yes, the pumpkins! I had forgotten.

And I missed the post, but Plei, your daughter is the most photogenic child I have ever seen. I imagine she is also that cute in person.
