Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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

It was also lacking in sneaky supercomputers and accessable coffeemakers in each room.

These are after-market items.

I am merely saying, for an actual-factual clocktower, it's a bit of a letdown.

Look, the bubble has burst for everyone. "White and Bright" says "sell! sell! sell!". Get some black paint in here, some of those Guatemalan Long-Jawed spiders [link] , a few throw pillows... it'll just sing "maniacally getting back at the world for slights real and imagined" in no time.

Now THAT would be a villian worthy of the new Red Dawn!

WOOT! I have finally put together the toy kitchen for Noah that looks like this. [link] Lots of folks said it would take 4+ hours. But it took us about 90+ minutes. HA! Ikea has trained me well.

(The directions were so much easier than Ikea -- things were numbered and then the holes were color coded with dots. Even the hardware was numbered.... brilliant!)

Aw, cute kitchen!

My parents would tell you to never attempt to set up a swingset in the yard in the dark, but you are IKEA trained, so...

I wouldn't attempt it. I mean, granted, we bought this for him for christmas, so it only took us 7 months and 90 minutes to put together.

Speaking of Ikea, I should go buy pots and pans for him there.

Aw, I got email from Taylor, so excited to hear I was back. Will hopefully have her over soon!

I needed that. Just needed to feel a bit a part of the world. I'm still (STILL!) transitioning back & it is stupid sometimes.
