You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Holy hell, the temperature today was 110 degrees or so (in 'Murrican). Not fun. Our house's cooling system has been getting quite the workout.

Ryan coped pretty well with it. He missed out on his afternoon walk, as we don't wish to roast our baby. Actually, he's been developing in leaps and bounds. Over the space of about a week or two, he's: started babbling consonants (and growling, that's always entertaining), clapping his hands and crawling forward. We remain very proud of the little man, of course. (We may have new photos soon.)

Meanwhile, I have a sort of job interview on Friday. One of my lecturers from last semester is putting me forward for some consulting work. Don't know how much they need doing, but it's right in my line of work and I'll be glad of the income. Fingers crossed it works out.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oooh, billytea, the random rodents that I see around here are nutrias. According to wiki, they were first described by Juan Ignacio Molina. Now when I see one? I can only think that they are actually the minions of Juan Pablo Montoya (prepare to race).

That is all.

Um, it's way past bedtime for me.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I used to have nutria tooth earrings.

Whereas tha capybaras are the ninja warriors of Helio! Castr-r-r-roneves. Have you ever seen a capybara twirl its moustache before? By the time you do, it's too late.

As much as I dig the capybara? I am Montoya's nutriagirl.

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

That's what SHE said...

Dude! Do not tell his wife. I only nutria in the platonic variation.

...And so sleepy now...

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Hey Tep, looks like the Reds just dropped $30mil on a lefty pitcher, the Cuban defector Aroldis Chapman. He throws about 97mph.

Hmmm. Sounds promising.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hmmm. Sounds promising.

He was a stud in the World Baseball Classic last spring, so he should be able to handle the majors.

Also, it's a five year deal so it's not even that expensive. Could be a good pickup.
