(I do love the name Emaryn, it's so pretty)

We like it too! I'm really happy with the kid's names. Maybe we should have gone with a middle name that starts with 'O' for Leif though. Then his initials would be LOL and that would be SO fitting.

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

Just in case anyone needs a photo of some poodles (and a human) wearing Hello Kitty party hats: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm thinking of Freaks and Geeks, where the geeks lament that they can't get laid. But what they really mean is that they can't get laid by cheerleaders.

This was me in high school, only it really wasn't "can't get laid" as much as "can't get a girlfriend" and the girls I wanted weren't cheerleaders they weren't all the different from the girls would wanted to go out with me, I just had a knack for crushing on the uninterested.

I actually acquired a nickname from some girls, "The Guardian" because I was the guy who would wrap you up in my coat and find your clothes that you were too drunk to locate and get you home safely.

Aw. And that's why you made a great catch for the right person!

Just found out a Cuban restaurant is moving to my neighborhood.

Oooh?

First day back at running a report, and of course I include the wrong attachements. Sigh.

T-minus 1 hour to sheer craziness.

It's the sort of thing that doesn't score a lot of points with high school girls, but becomes more attractive with age. That might explain why the girls I could have gone out with in high school tended to the troubled and needy. I mean getting treatment and suicide attempt troubled, not just slightly off. Maybe not having a serious girlfriend in high school wasn't a bad thing.

I had a serious girlfriend in high school. She asked me out. I never considered asking her out because she was seeing someone. Turns out she asked me out to make her boyfriend jealous, but we ended up going out together for a year and a half. (Of course, she cheated on me multiple times during while we were going out.)

Oooh?

You know where Grano is on the corner of Falls & Hickory? It's moving to where the pie place was on Chestnut and the Cuban place is moving in. Fun!

I was scared to read the comments (Comments on the Internet aieeee) but they were actually pretty thoughtful and interesting.
