If I follow your sentence correctly, and I might not be, it sounds like what you did a year ago was put it off for another year.

Perhaps there's only so much work I can do in Perl per year, and when I reach my limit I fall down and go into... a functional coma?

Congrats, Ouise! To your sister and her partner as well.

delurking to say YAYAYAYAY for Nora and Kyra!

Happy Birthday Fred!

Congratulations Ouise and Nora!

Congrats!!

When I read this, I thought car == automobile an it made the post even more interesting. Jesse ran her car into somebody she didn't like? I think 'don't mess around with cowgirls' is the moral to that story.

That should be the moral of every story!!

Jesse just looks like Dale Evans, but she's Annie Oakley in her soul.

Congrats on the auntyhood, Ouise! And best wishes to the parents.

Aw man, I watched the live coverage of the arrival and greetings, but the stills still got me choked up. I can't even imagine how the women must have felt when they saw Bill Clinton. The Al & Bill hug, damn. Well done boys.

Ouise! Congratulations! Tell Nora I said so too!!!!

Thanks for all the congratulations. I've emailed Nora with a link to the thread so she can read the congratulations herself.

I was counting up the knitter relatives, and this kid is going to be swamped in knits: mother, two aunts (including me!), grandmother, two great-aunts, and a great-grandmother!

Most of them are better at finishing projects than I am. On the bright side, I have at least two baby sweaters (originally intended for others, who have long since grown too big for them) that are mostly finished. Hurray?

oh, and also:

Happy birthday Fred!

Congratulations to you, too, Glamcookie!
